I've never done this before...where you have a single 4.7GB blank DVD and you try to squeeze down two files that total roughly 8GB's on it. The two files are each about two hours long each.
I'm using TMPGEnc and it has a feature that initially showed me that the total size would take the project into the red zone, but later when I set my parameters for recording, I changed it to handle the two large files and it appears that it looks like it is ready to do that without throwing any big argument but I'm wondering, is that going to degrade the quality of each of them by trying to squeeze those 8GB's down to fit onto a 4.7 GB disc?
I'm assuming what it will do is lower the bitrate to make it work
So obviously DVD 9, Double-layer discs would work better. Amazingly, I have never used double layer discs, but I did just find out that my burner supports them. I'm going to go ahead and order some. Is there anything special about burning to them that I should know ahead of time?
Thanks
