*more burning DVD issues
ok.. so heres the scoop.
video clips saved as divx files saved to PC.
transferring those movies / clips onto DVD.
DVD blank media holds about 8 gigs
but for some reason were only able to put about 1/2 that amount (4 gigs)
onto the DVD....

RE: *more burning DVD issues
thanks for the heads up guys..
the laptop / etc isnt ine its my buds... so I'll ask him if the burner is compatible to burn dual layer dvds...

Ugggh, why bother? all you're doing is crapping down the video quality.
If you really do want to do it and have some leverage.... download DVDSHRINK i believe its free.
N3ro Recode does some stuff also.
