Default

Dual Layer: 120 mins at the highest quality
Single Layer: 60 mins at the highest quality

Reducing the bitrate reduces file sizes and therefore the length of video on a DVD.

I have put 440 Minutes on a single layer DVD-5 4.7 gig
But it looks like vcd, http://www.dvdshrink.org/
This is a good tool for putting more video on a DVD

The more video you put on a DVD the lesser quality of the video.


Here is some good reading
