    Half it if you go with uncompressed YV12, which makes sense since DVD is YV12.
    720x576x(12/8)x25x60^2/(1024^3) = size per hour for PAL.

    That is just the video though.

    True but it could be argued YV12 is a form of lossy compression vs YVYU just as 4:2:2 YVYU could be considered lossy compression compared to 4:4:4.

    So answer could be ~112GB, ~75GB or ~38GB depending on how one defines uncompressed. And this is just for 8bit Y.

    The DVD is already YV12 though so it isn't lossy.

    In the DVD extraction case it is ~38GB. Agreed.
