Hi That depends. If you are using dual-layer DVDs, you can just burn that folder straight back to a DVD using disk utility, being sure that the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders are at the root of the burned image, i.e. not in a subfolder. If not, and you're wanting to compress the DVD image down to a 4.7 gb DVD-R, you would use something like DVD2One from: http://www.dvd2one.com/ Using dual-layered discs is preferable to shrinking, because there will be some data compression and therefore a loss of quality when you shrink it. Plus, dvd2one is not a free program, and is a bit on the expensive side unless you need it. If you do need it, it is Voiceover-friendly although the interface is a bit different than what you might expect.
