I recoded my DV to the DVD format and realize the files are over 4.7GB. I hope not to lost any quality. Is it possible to fit the whole thing to a SL DVD-R?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Not without re-encoding or trimming some video off the ends. A DVD-5 actually holds about 4.37GB. You could use a Verbatim DL+ disc if you don't want to re-encode.
What program did you use to encode/author with? -
If you've already authored your project, you could try DVD Shrink and see if the results are acceptable.

If you use a good encoder you can set the bitrate and have it the right size the first time.
Re-encoding it or transcoding it a 2nd time will decrease the quality.
Small amounts are usually not real noticeable.
It's up to you if you think it is acceptable when it's done. -

I use to do 9 passes but everybody here says it is a waste ... so I use 4 Pass ... 5 Pass ... sometimes 6 Pass ... takes about 200 minutes to process a DVD Movie ... after I have used CloneDVD2 to trim out the fat.

I got it to fit a 4.7GB, I am satisfy with the picture and sound quality since it shrinks only a tiny bit.
Thanks all for your advise.
