A 4.7 gig disc will hold 4.7 gig (actually about 4.3 gig). The amount of video that you can place on a DVD depends on the bitrate. For a high quality DVD, the bitrate is about 8000kps. This would allow about 1 hr on a single-layer disc. Keep in mind you must also consider the audio bitrate. The total of the video and audio would have to be considered for the amount that can fit onto a disc.

Lowering the bitrate would allow you longer videos. There are bitrate calculators to assist you in determining what the bitrate needs to be to fit 4 hrs of video on a disc.

To fit 4 hrs of video onto a single-layer disc, you would need to use a bitrate of about 2312kps. Not a very good quality video.
