    I have 13 tv show episodes (roughy 22 min and 180 mb each) that I would like to burn to dvd+r's. I want to have multiple episodes on each dvd, but I'm not trying to fit all 13 episodes on 1 dvd, I would like to try and fit like 6-8-ish per disc. I picked 6-8 because my The Simpsons season 7 dvd box set has like 8 episodes per disc so clearly you can fit a few episodes on one disc with good quality.

    I have dvd flick but I rarely use it, and I've never used it to burn multiple episodes so I'm not sure if I could use it for this project. I added like 4 episodes to dvd flick and it said that it was at like 98% full, does this mean that I simply cannot fit my 6-8 episodes per disc like I wanted?

    I don't have nero (I tried using it once a while ago, but it just turned out to be a mess so I got rid of it)
    And no, my dvd player isn't divx compatable or whatever so I can't just burn the avi's straight to the dvd (sadly).

    DVD Flick will do the job.
    You could add more than 4 episodes to one disc, but the quality will decrease. the more you add, the more compression you will have and the quality will decrease.

    For what it's worth, I agree with mike.m, convertxtodvd is the way to go.

    If you need freeware, I would recommend you DVD Flick. Press "Add title" and import your episode.

    If you need shareware, you may try womble easydvd. Press "Add Movie" in the Source window to import your episode (a movie is synonymous with a title). But if you want to merge two or more episodes in one title, you should press "Add video" instead. You could add as many as you want, but be remember what cyprusrom said, "the more you add, the more compression you will have and the quality will decrease."

    BTW, can I merge two or more episodes in one title in DVD Flick? I cannot find it. Thanks for any help.
