Possibly, except for the smart compression algorithm.

Is this from experience with the new Toast? Are you saying it doesn't have compression or that the algorithm isn't smart?

The product blurb does say "NEW! Compress and copy an entire 9 GB dual-layer DVD video to a standard 4.7 GB recordable DVD disc" so it appears to do some compression - but it's not clear if there's any flexibility in what it will do, and I'm curious about that.



(For example, how about when I have a movie, grabbed from TCM by my ReplayTV & I want to burn it, but it's an "epic" & 4.8GB? Is it possible to smoosh that down just a bit? Would Popcorn have done that? Will Toast 7?)
