clonedvd file size probleme

hi, i want to copy an iso/udf data from a dvd on the HD and am having problems with clonedvd.

It says that it doesnt support files that are bigger than 4GB. As the film is around 4.6 what am i doing wrong. I want to do it this way as i am having problems finding the right media, and chickenman said i should copy it in this manner first in order to view the film first with deamon tools.

can you help please

thanks in advance Leet

It sounds like you've ripped the vobs to a single 'huge' file or something similar. Is that the case? I cant see why else you would get that error message :-/

hi, i havn´t ripped the dvd yet, before i start, after selecting the source etc. i select iso/udf on the right hand side and then comes the message, clone dvd doesnt support files larger than 4GB.
I understand what you mean but clonedvd doesnt give you that option.

thanks anyway until then leet

Maybe its saying that because you'll be saving to a FAT/FAT32 drive and they cant handle files > 4GB.

exactly i think that was the problem. How can i get around this problem?

you can't unless you have either XP or 2000 installed on your machine, then you can convert one of your drives to NTFS,

I will assume you must be on XP or 2K if you are using AnyDVD with CloneDVD, so to convert a drive you open a DOS prompt and type

Convert c: /fs:ntfs

(if you want to convert C: of course)

Read This it will help you understand more about the process,

if you are using 95/98/Me or you are Dual booting with one of the above then you will lose access to the drive for those OS's so it is something you must consider carefully,

this conversion will not lose you your existing data, however it isn't reversible so once you pick NTFS you are stuck with it, this isn't much of a drawback as you will not notice the difference if you only use XP or 2K,
