Can anyone please clear this up for me? I have heard about taking a dvd and instead of shrinking it down to fit on dvd with DVDShrink, taking it and shrinking it down to 700mb(in some kind of diff format avi, divx, etc) without much quality loss. If this is true I could fit a whole lot more movies onto one dvd-5 disc that would be great. I know they do this for dvdrips and stuff. Does anyone know anything about this? Will it affect the quality of the movie or would it stay the same? Is it better to just stick with dvdshrink and burn only one movie to a disc? thanks

Basically I'm wanting to put multiple movies onto 1 dvd-5 without quality loss.(no worse than what dvdshrink does with 1 movie) Can this be done?

you will lose quailty by doing what you are wanting to do, and yes you can do it. also are you planing on watching theese on your desk top or laptop, if so it willbe just ok, but if you are going to watch on your tv you will be able to see how bad it is.

Thanks for the reply. I am wanting to watch them on the tv. I stand stand any quality loss so I guess I wont be able to do it unless I switch to blu ray later and burn onto those since they are grater capacity. I am burning a 700mb right now so we will see how it goes anyways.
