Unfortunately like most new members here, you think that by being brief you are helping yourself but in fact your post is missing pertinent details we need to know if you want help.
You say "fit in one or two dvds". Does this mean:
1) I want to burn it in one or two dvds, but data discs are fine so long as the resulting file(s) are of high quality.
or
2) I want to burn it in one or two dvds in standard DVD video format so that any normal DVD player can play my video.
There may be other follow up questions, but you really need to answer the above for now if you truly want help. -
jman98.. sir thanks for your reply... yes i should have explained it better....
I think following option is what i am looking for:
1) I want to burn it in one or two dvds, but data discs are fine so long as the resulting file(s) are of high quality.

well i hope i am doing the right thing by posting media info, so looking forward for your kind assistance..Thanks -
The video won't fit on two DVD-R discs. You can copy it to a portable hard dive or USB stick with no processing and very little trouble. Most modern BluRay players should be able to handle it. However, if you think your DVD set top player is going to play an AVCHD high definition video just because it's on a "DVD disc", you're mistaken.
It might fit on a single DVD disc if decoded, resized from 1920x1080 to DVD standard 720x480 and re-encoded to MPEG2, but you will definitely suffer a serious quality loss using the usual "consumer" budget software packs. At 1hr 49min, you would have to use a lower MPEG2 bitrate that will cost you again. For standard "DVD', you could re-encode at a suitably high bitrate and burn to dual-layer DVD. You also have 2 audio tracks to consider.Last edited by sanlyn; 19th Mar 2014 at 06:39.

The file should fit on two DVD-R discs if you lose the DTS audio which is over 1GB.

Probably. All the O.P. needs now is a DVD player than can handle DVD-R data discs having AVCHD videos in mkv containers.

My Brother's girlfriend bought a Philips Blu-Ray player about a year ago that plays data DVDs with x264/MKV. I myself rarely burn discs anymore. Everything either goes on the MyBook, a HDD drive I have lying around that will fit in my external enclosure or one of my 30GB thumbdrives.
