Yes, Shrink will automatically compress the data to fit onto a single
layer DVD - exactly!. If you use the 'deep analysis ' mode it can do it
very well, especially if there is not too much compression. It is best
to reduce the audio file size by converting the audio to AC3. It leaves
more space for the video.
Or you could do all the calculations manually, re: bit rate,VBR, two
pass etc. Only you can decide whether any quality improvement is worth
the extra effort.
