    Is it possible to burn a dvd using FAT32?

    Is it possible to copy a dvd using the fat32 file system that splits up the dvd files instead of creating one iso file?
    I have ripped a few dvds and it creates a whole heap of files because it cant create a file bigger than 4.2 gb which is most dvd's.
    How do i burn these created files to make a dvd? Is it possible? Or is it a waste of time?
    Much thanks in advance.

    Fat32 is no big deal. If you use the new v3.2 of DVDShrink it will output an ISO in 1gig chunks for DVDDecrytper to burn. I generally rip a movie to the HDD with Decrytper in File mode which gives me a series of BUP, IFO, and VOB files that I burn using Nero after DVDShrink reduces the movie to 4.3 or less gigs. You did not mention which programs you are using.

    Added note: This old Vaio is using ME and has not let me down yet.

      Yes - but it would be advisable to save (backup) the project to a standard "DVD Package" (i.e., IFO, BUP, and VOB files) because the main VOB files will be split into 1 Gig or less files. A single ISO image file will almost always exceed the 4 Gig filesize limitation of FAT32.
