Unhappy Mac users Burning DVD9 (aka Dual Layer DVD's)?

So I Dl'ed this awesome Marcus Miller DVD9 (Dual Layer)

Marcus Miller 2002-06-27 [COMPLETE] (DVD9) Montreal Jazz Fest (NTSC)

I have a G4 iBook 1.2 ghz with 1.25gb RAM and burn using Roxio Popcorn with my Firewire external Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-109

I have not had any issues, usually I use single layer 4.7 GB discs, but I have also used the Dual Layer 8.5 GB with success

usually: I simply drag the video TS folder and ....volia!

which I have never had any problems burning

I do not want to compress the image since there was much effore in mastering and torrenting this awesome show.

upon trying to burn this show I got the following:



i get the message:

Drive reported an error
Sense key = Illegal request
Sense Code = 0X26
Invalid Field in parameter list


I did get it to work compressed: I burned it to a single layer DVD 4.7GB since the error does not appear... it burned fine compressed
enabling me to finally watch it!


I really do not want to compress the video and loose quality...
my burner does support DL DVD's...
and it usually works

any suggestions?

I am sortof thinking perhaps defragging (optimizing) the drive with techtool, might fix it?

also STLBlues suggested using DVD shrink to image it(not shrink) an then brun it. thats a windows program.
I do have dvd onexone which may do the same thing... or maybe using the Disc Utility to make a disc image?

any one know how I might fix this on my iBook, to burn with a Dual Layer DVD?

thanx much!
