To be compatible with any player, the MPEG2 codec is still more popular than H.264 codec for the DVD authoring program. All burned movies will be fixed at 720x576 (PAL) or 720x480 (NTSC) in resolution to meet the DVD specification. The bitrate of standard DVD burning software used to burn multiple videos to DVD is usually set to 5MB. Otherwise, the DVD quality will be very poor with a significant amount of artifacts (especially the movies that have many explosions, action scenes).Īlthough a high bitrate delivers high quality, the maximum bit rate of an encoded MPEG-2 movie should not exceed 8MB in order to leave enough headroom for audio and sub-pictures. Then, you might ask, "why not reduce the bitrate so that I can burn multiple movies to DVD-5".ĭVD encoded with MPEG2 can't set the bitrate under 3000kbps. 3200 kbps is 3 hours in DVD-5 and 5 hours in DVD-9. 1000 kbps helps you store approximately 9 hours in DVD-5 and 15 hours in DVD-9. The lower the bitrate is, the more movies a DVD can hold. The video bitrate determines the capacity of the DVD. 3) Why Not Increase the DVD Storage Capacity (Minutes)？ But if you just want to burn multiple shorter TV shows and episodes to DVD, DVD-5 is a great choice. To burn multiple movies on one DVD, DVD-9 is more suitable. That's to say, DVD-5 may merely hold one movie, whereas DVD-9 can hold 3~5 movies. Movies are almost always 80-120 minutes long.
And a Dual Layer 8.5GB blank DVD can hold video up to 240 minutes. As shown in the table above, a standard 4.7GB Single Layer recordable DVD is able to store around 120-133 minutes of video. It depends on the movies' length, not size.
