    I stuck Monsters Inc. into dvd decryptor to make a backup because it already has a few scratches on it from my little one here, however I see it is HUGE (over 8 gig) which surprised me because it doesn't seem to have a ton of extras on the main feature disc here.

    Is it so big because it has a choice of widescreen or full screen at the begining of the movie (in other words is this movie doubled up - both widescreen and full screen versions ontop of each other on this disc resulting in an 8 gig file size?).

    What would be the simplest way to take JUST the movie (in either format widescreen or fullscreen) and pop it onto a dvd-r.

    I have been reading for a while in the forums and I understand it will take some work to do this, but I was hoping someone might know of a specific way to get this to work on this film fast and easy if at all possible.

    This was the very first DVD I backed up.

    It was a nightmare !! But it was my first one.

    It's not the easiest of DVD's to backup.

    It was also one of the first that I backed up, I don't remember having any problem with it.This was region 2 mind you so maybe it didn't have both screen ratios on it

    I agree with homerj/malum.

    It took me a while but a long time ago.

    If I remember.
    I ripped the whole disc and stripped out everything - just movie/6ch audio LEFT.
    I think it was still TOO big slightly and had to cut off the end credits.
    Did not want to re-encode!

    Triple X was not hard at all (for me). Simple DVD Dcrypter, IFO Edit then Nero, done. No re-encoding needed.
