ok ill give u an example to help. if u have a 700mb .avi file and then convert to dvd it would take up over 1gb if not 2 depending on the length of the movie. im not sure about mpeg but avi files are pretty small. u can use a program like avi to dvd to convert and test if u like.

hope this helps. if u need more help i will try.

depends on quality as well... like if i downloaded hairspray from somewhere () it would be 700MB but i ripper the DVD and it was over 1GB.

yes but usually d/led versions are r5s and come from cd's and are excellent quality. i think they arent comparable to dvd quality. but anyway quality does make a difference aswell

Juven

I do understand that to get the best DVD quality it takes more space.

Quality should be good enough to see and good sound quality.

I just want to write as many clips as poss in to a DVD(4.7GB) disc.

and wots that d/led versions?

the smallest video format would be H.264 in a mkv container, than use a program like "convertXtodvd"

as far as small goes i've seen WMV, but then again quality of wmv is crap.

how about wma files?

avi files are good. u can put at 700mb each 6 movies on one dvd. just use a conveting program nd experiment with the sizes. u can get a good quality movie at 700mb for .avi files so if thats all u nbeed try avi. then see if its small enough. i would recommend winavi as the files it makes are smaller than other programs and it is very quick to convert.

cohen

i like avi

wma's are music files!
