Can I schrink a MPeg-2 file in size and convert it to DVD di

[flbs]

Hi,
Is there no way of getting more than 120 min. of video on a DVD disk. I have made a project in Pinnacle Studio 8 and have tried to save it as a MPEG2 file, in the hope that DVD schrink or other tool would be able to get it down in size, but I can't get it to work. Is there no way around it ?
How come you can scrink double DVD's to fit on one disk, if I cant get 135 min. reduced to one disk ??? How do I convert/burn the Mpeg-2 file to a DVD disk.
Thank you for any help on this

Author the MPEG files. That is, make your BUPs, VOBs, IFOs, etc. with Pinnacle if you can. Then use DVD Shrink to reduce them to fit on a DVD. Burn as usual.

Author the MPEG-2 with your DVD Authoring software. It should allow you to make a DVD that is over the size limit. Have it write the data to your HDD into a VIDEO_TS folder.

Now use DVDShrink like you would on a RIPPED factory made DVD9 disc.
