I'm not sure this answers your question which I believe is how to compress the information by slightly lowering the quality?  I was frustrated by the
 small amount of data on the DVDs so I got a double layered DVD which works
 well with my new double layered recorder.  Well over 120 minutes of video
 with no loss of quality.
 What I would like to know is have you installed the latest update to Nero 7
 ultra (which has NV4)?  Keeps crashing during editing and burning.
