@ Manda
of course it's illegal to copy videos that are NOT your property.
THIS IS MY OWN ORIGINAL PROJECT! I own the copyrights thank you very much!

Well you can cut out the scenes that are not important like the credits but if you do not want to do that you just have to find a dvd with more space.

That's because copying movies is illegal.

You're irritated at me because YOU didn't state the content was rightfully yours. Not my fault, it's yours. Thank YOU very much.

I would check out newegg.com for longer length dvds.

You need dvd shrink sister! It takes commercial dvds and re-encodes them to be smaller so that they can fit on a 4.7 gig disc.

You can ignore the 120 min rating on the DVD. What really matters is the size of the video that you want to burn on to DVD. A standard single sided DVD has a capacity of 4.70 GB and a dual layer has a capacity of 8.54 GB (there is blu ray, but I will leave that out). What you want to do is have the final video file size within the capacity of the media that you are burning it to (no bigger 4.7 GB for single sided and 8.54 GB for dual layer dvd's). You can lower file size by trimming off unecessary parts or by encoding it to a lower resolution. Although encoding it to lower resolution will degrade the picture quality, but as long as you don't lower the resolution too much. Then the picture quality loss would be hardly noticeable. You could also find a slew of DVD burning programs that could help you achieve this easier. Just google for it.
