Hi, I have read the stickies and done the searches and either i have failed to miss the point or have not been eagle eyed enough but cant seem to find a solution.
I regular make home movies with my camcorder. I am currently left with a bunch of mov files on my hardrive but on this occassion cant seem to burn them onto a dvd using nerovision express without making 3 dvd's?
Only last week using this method i burned (Nero vision express) a 3 hour movie using 2 dvd discs with the same camcorder. But today and all of last night i keep getting the .... ''you have exceeded message ... only on dvd9 etc ...''
I have regularly burnt files [1 and a half hours in length] onto a dvd but today it will only allow me to burn at just over 1 hour maximum ... which will result in me needed 3 discs ?
I dont mind having 2 discs but three discs cant be right, what am i doing wrong if anything as i regulary do similar projects with Nero without a problem.
I have read the section on your guides but cant find an answer for me especially considering i have done this simple task many times previously?
Many thanks for your reply MysticE, but will altering the bitrate mean me sacrificing quality ?
Lower bitrates = lower quality, but you get longer running times. Whether the quality of 3 hours on a DVD looks good, is up to you and also depends on what kind of TV you have. May look fine on a 27" CRT, while on a 50" plasma... not so hot. Fast motion also comes in to play.

Burn one and see if it suits your needs.
Thanks but the results werent as good so I ended up making 3 discs.
I honestly thought that some kind of software like dvdshrink would have helped me?
I have also learnt ''doh'' that if I select the ultra fine quality on my camcorder setting this will restrict the space on my DVDR disc when i come to burn it.
