    Hi, I usually download Korean Dramas and their like long 20 episode series.

    All my episodes are 700MB and I'm using WinAVI to put them on DVD. I was wondering about everyone's opinion on how many 700MB files should you convert to fit a DVD. In other words, what is your limit? I've been putting 4 episodes on my DVDs and they seem to look nice enough for me. So a 20 episode series would fit a nice even 5 DVDs.

    How about Anime? They are usually around 200-300MB each episode. How many episodes of those would you burn to a DVD?

    Also, just another question for fun. How many minutes do you set for your chapters? Mine at the moment is 5 minutes each chapter. Do you think that's good? What do you like?

    I really appreciate the help I've received from this board! Thank you all very much.

    you would be using a single layered disc which would be about 4.38 gig.You could double that if you tried using a dual layered disc, so get about 8 episodes to disc.
