can i put a movie on a DVD in the
DV-AVI format? or do i have to us wma or something
 
Yes, but a DV AVI does not a DVD make. By doing so, you simply have a data
backup of your DV AVI video file ( if it will fit ), and the disc will not
work in a DVD player. The DV AVI file must be converted to fully compliant
DVD format in order to be viewed as a DVD.
 
Good lord! What bitrate are you using? That's LOADS more than even DVD!!!
Even in full screen uncompressed format I get 45 minutes to about 1.5gig!

Maybe you should look at these 2 sites...

That is the size on tape, but sonic reduces the AVI to DVD format.
Sonic shows that the dvd is only Half filled!

OF course I hit "Burn CD" 8 hours ago, it is still bulidng menus.

hmm
 
That's almost right for an uncompressed DV-AVI in MovieMaker2... it's
roughly 12gb per hour. The third party DVD burning equipment will re-encode
and compress it. I can fit 2 x 8gb AVIs on to one DVD-R using Roxio 6.
