| [Need Info] Burn 2 1/2 hour movie to dvd
What program can I use to squeeze a 2 1/2 hour movie to a 2 hour dvd???
I have 3 old VCR movies that are (1)150 and (2)155 minutes long and need to put them each on it's own single 2 hour dvd if possible.
I don't have a dual burner!!!
Thanks for any replies!!! |

| First convert the vcr movies to DVD format, then use dvdshrink to shrink them to DVD5 size.

Top Floor | DVD Shrink works well when you don't need to compress too much. Rebuilder is fantastic with the right encoder. I use DVD Rebuilder Pro with Procoder 2. The results are truly amazing. |

Regina, SK | the length of the movie is mostly immaterial
since they're coming from a vcr, chances are the source quality is low enough that you could squeeze a dozen vcr movies onto 1 dvd |

| said by Tikker_LoS  :the length of the movie is mostly immaterial since they're coming from a vcr, chances are the source quality is low enough that you could squeeze a dozen vcr movies onto 1 dvd That's not quite correct. The real factor is the bit rate they are encoded to in the analog to digital process. |

Regina, SK | bit rate is generally analagous to source quality, and doesn't change the fact that the length of the movie is mostly immaterial |

The movie is analog to begin with. Have you ever noticed the quality difference between some DVDs? A lot of movies can be found in bargain bins with 2 or more titles on a single DVD. This is done by lowering the bit rate. This doen't mean that the source quality is poor. It's just a way to put more on a disc. |
