Toast does not burn DVD, will not recompress?
 
Question. On Mac (high serria OS) using Toast Titanium 10 trying to burn DVD media that needs to be compressed very slightly to fit but immediately pops up a notice that recompression failed. It is ripped film. Anything that will help? Thanks.

Compress how?

Toast is like Nero -- pretty lousy at anything but pure burning. Sure, it offers to do other tasks, and claims to do them well. But it does not.

Do you have a DVD-Video, and need to shrink/compress it to fit a 4.48gb single-layer DVD-R/+R?

If DVD-Video, there are some Mac-native options for that process, better than Toast, but I actually prefer to use WineBottler and install DVD Shrink. MacTheRipper to extract the source ISO, open ISO in Shrink. That is honestly the best method.
