How much does a DVDR/W fit? Is it 4.7GB or 4.38GB? 8.54 GB or 7.95 GB?
The DVD sizes can be a bit confusing. But we can be sure that DVD needs more space than any other video formats.So,if you don¡¯t have enough space to work with,you can use some tools ,such as imtoo video converter,to convert between DVD and other formats ,
There are basicly 4 different dvd sizes,
DVD-5, holds around 4 700 000 000 bytes and that is 4.37GB.
DVD+R/W and DVD-R/W supports this format. Also called Single Sided Single Layered.
DVD-10, holds around 9 400 000 000 bytes and that is 8.75GB. DVD+R/W and DVD-R/W supports this format. Also called Double Sided Single Layered.
DVD-9, holds around 8 540 000 000 bytes and that is 7.95GB. DVD+R supports this format. Also called Single Sided Dual Layered.
DVD-18, holds around 17 080 000 000 bytes and that is 15.9GB. DVD+R supports this format. Also called Double Sided Dual Layered.
Other non-standard special DVD formats:
DVD-VCD - is basicly a VCD authored on a DVDR/W. DVD supports the VCD resolution but the audio has to be resampled to 48 khz. If the audio is resampled to 48 khz it is standard DVD-Video.
DVD-SVCD - is basicly a SVCD authored on a DVDR/W. DVD do not supports the SVCD resolution but it may anyway work and the audio has to be resampled to 48 khz like the DVD-VCD.
DVD-MP3 - is MP3s burned on a DVDR/W but very few MP3 capable standalone DVD Players supports it because most Players verify DVDR/W as DVD-Video only.
DVD-ISO - is MPEG,MPG,VOB files burned on a DVDR/W without any DVD Authoring (making the vob,ifo files) but very few standalone DVD Players supports it because most Players verify DVDR/W as DVD-Video only. |
