Hey guys, I have a DVD burner and have burned like 2 DVDS since I got it. I have a question. I have every Giants game on my PC and I had plans at the end of the season tu put it all on DVDs. The problem im having is that the DVD-Rs I can find are all 2 hours, all of my games are 2:15 - 2:30. Do you guys know of like a bigger disc that is made or a wya i can get this on to one disc? My files are within the size the discs hold but there too long so it wont let me burn. Any help would be appreciated....thanks!

You only have two options really...

Look into overburning and see if its enough to the dvd burned... However, know that DVD's are much more touchy and don't like overburning, unlike CD's that can take a little bit...

The other option is look into compression it or re-encoding it so that it will fit on to the DVD. Quality will suffer, but there's definitely a way to get it on there.
