    i have about 100 videos that i've downloaded & will eventually put on dvds. The majority of them are about 100mb, even a few 200mb. I want to convert them all to 1 file type & reduce the size of the files, but still hold good quality. They are music videos. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!!

    What formats are they presently? If you look to 'What is' DVD, those are the acceptable formats for DVD. How you want to convert them is up to you. There are plenty of guides here. Just look in 'Convert' to the left. <<<<

    If you are asking for an easy way to do all those, there really isn't any.
    I would segregate them into types and work out the methods and tools for each type conversion. If quality is important, it will take time and the right tools.

    If they aren't DVD compliant, then reencoding is needed. If you add up the runtime of all the videos, that will give you a idea of the space needed on a DVD.

    Then you decide how many DVDs to use or whether to encode them at a lower bitrate, and use less DVDs, such as 1/2 D1 or VCD format. Both are compatible DVD formats.
