I used to love this application, but it doesn't work for me anymore since I upgraded to Snow Leopard. :-(

All of my images are over 4.38GB, is there anyway to compress them during the imaging process??

DVD Imager needs an update to work properly in Leopard, but in the meantime, here's an easy workaround.
Don't drop the VIDEO_TS folder onto DVD Imager's window. Instead, find the DVD Imager application icon in the Finder and drop it onto that.

Ever since I moved to leopard DVD Imager is not working. When I hit the "create" button I get an error in the program saying that the operation has been canceled.

I've been using DVD Imager for about 2 years now, and during that time have created a little over 1,500 DVDs. To date I have never had a single problem of any kind. I'm not sure I've ever had another application of any type I could say that about, and this one is not only free, but the definition of easy to use. My absolute highest receommendation.
DVD Imager Troubleshooting - Version: 1.5.9, 7/6/2007 07:27PM PST

For most problems with DVD Imager, in all likelihood the content of the VIDEO_TS folder (or other content if you're using copy mode) is something DVD Imager can't handle.
Here are some ways to try to determine that.
Start by using a utility like Onyx to
1) Repair permissions.
2) Check preferences.
3) Clean caches.
Are there any DVDs/VIDEO_TS folders that DVD Imager can copy? If you've ever successfully used DVD Imager to make a DVD before, try inserting one you created with DVD Imager before or one that was created a different way, and try to perform the operation on the VIDEO_TS folder that exists there.
Monitor the tmp folder while DVD Imager is working. That may present a challenge. You should be able to locate that folder in the Finder by typing command-shift-g and entering "/tmp". Examine the files in the lelandtmploc just after DVD Imager begins working.
Look for a file called " dvdimagerlog" also in the "/tmp" folder. If you can, drag it out of there before DVD Imager deletes it when quitting, and tell me what's in it. If you have trouble dragging it, just select it as soon as it appears after you click Create in DVD Imager and press command-d to duplicate it. That way the original will be removed when DVD Imager quits but the duplicate will remain.
You might want to try testing the mkisofs executable which is the engine for DVD Imager. The documentation includes the command you need to type into the terminal, substituting your particulars for source, disk name, and destination.
If you put the DVD Imager application into the main directory of the boot drive, typing the following line precisely into Terminal and pressing return should result in a message telling you all the options that can be used for the mkisofs executable. If it doesn't, then there's some problem with the mkisofs executable on your system, and DVD Imager can't possibly work.
/DVD\ Imager.app/Contents/Resources/mkisofs
If you get the expected response, then try completing the command line using the command line sample included in the documentation.
Good luck!
