Re: Cramming content onto a SD DVD
by George Wing (George W.) on May 30, 2008 at 11:28:42 am

[Brad Goodman] "He wants me to put each of the tapes onto a single SD DVD. That is, about three hours of content per DVD."

Can the "single" SD DVD be a dual-layer disc (DVD-9)? If so, then that should fit nicely.

Even if the client wants Single-layer (DVD5), it might not look too bad if you have an excellent quality source video, and the subject matter doesn't have much movement (as I suspect is the case with the lectures).

The best thing to do is to actually try a small section encoded at the proper bitrates to fit the ~3hours onto your target discs. I would use AC3 audio, and considering the low bitrate you will have to use for DVD5, I might even try Half-D1 resolution (352x480 for NTSC).

Regards,
George
