Hi fellow KaTers, Im looking for a program that can maybe shrink or reduce the size of a video file so i can put multiple tv episodes on one disc rather than 1-2 per disc. Iv'e really gotten into these True Bloods but it seems only 2 per dvd. Anyway to reduce the size and maybe add like 4 or 6 per disc like the store bought ones? Curious because im running through dvds fast with tv shows and the discs I buy are $50 bucks for a 50 spindle. Lmk plz thanks.

You already have all you need. The full Nero suite includes Nero Video. There choose DVD-DVD Video in the "Create and export" category. 3-4 hours is maximum I'd recommend on a 4,5GB DVD. If you need more help feel free to ask.
BTW, If I understand you want to keep these as an archive right?
Than you DON'T need DVD-RW but plain DVD-R. Verbatim is best IMHO and these should be no more than 0,5$/piece in quantity of 50 or more.

Think brand names are misleading, if you use imgburn and look at the info about make and model of the disk, you will find that many different brands use disks made by the same factory. And if you are intending to keep them get the +_Rs. Couple of years ago I bought 50 from Radio Shack sale for less than $10.

At least where I live, it seems Verbatim DVDs have better QC than other brands. They don't stick to each other, have no discolorations or variations on the recordable surface etc.
Consider that at work I have 4 DVD burners in my PC as I often duplicate stuff for distribution so I have a pretty large sample size to reflect upon.

Do you use your Bluray burner much? How about reliability of the recorded stuff?
