The only way I am aware of putting 35 episodes on 3 dvd's is as data. Other than that, the most 350 MB files (1 hour) I ever got to fit on 1 DVD, with excellent quality, was 4 (unless you use Dual Layer and then, maybe, 8) and they started out as excellent HDTV. I used a different method but this will do it too. The trial does insert a watermark and is speed limited but the quality is great, it's fast and easy to use and creates menues:http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/vso_convertxtodvd_guide.cfm

Well, sort of. Kind of a false advertising. I am not up on this but due to how bits and bytes are measured for advertising purposes, a 4.7 G DVD holds about 4300 MB (4386) and a DL about 7900 MB. Something to do with a bit being measured as 1024 bytes as opposed to 1000 (I think it's bytes - can never keep bits and bytes straight). This is pretty low but turned out great for me. 1075 MB is about correct - you don't want to burn right to the edge of a disk as that is where errors may occur and keep any burns to 4x to prevent errors. Also, use a good media like Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim or, I think I read, any made in Japan.
