DVD Workshop -Why Can't I put 2hrs of video in 1 DVD?

[monsterD]

So far I am able to make DVD with 1 hr of video.
I captured 2hr SVHS within DVDWS using its own MPEG plugin. I created the menus, buttons, chapters etc. At the Finish-Make disc step, I tried to use the Low quality-120 min output setting to burn disc. It spend about 3 hrs transcoding the video, audio and menu. When it got to step 4, the message "compiling media and navigation data" flashed and then I got an error message "failed to convert title". What went wrong? Do I need to customize the settings?

What are the proper settings to capture 2 hrs of video from SVHS to DVD within DVDWorkshop? The quality wasn't good with its MPEG-plugin.

I am really frustrated that I can't get 2 hrs of video onto 1 DVD. Please help.

Also, I would like to have AC3 audio in my DVD. If I export from Premier6.5, what MPEG-2 export setting should I use to get AC3 in the output. And will DVDWS accepts it?
