Burn time, 4.7 GB verses 120 min??

Post by vince »

I am running DVD Moviefactory 2 with no updates yet. Just saw them when trying to find out what I am not doing right. I am trying to burn a photo DVD that totals about 3GB but I cannot burn all the photos. I am wondering what this 120 minute thing on the blank DVD's is ......am I limited to 120 min time or limited to 4.7GB? Tried no audio. I can only burn about 2/3 of the photos. Thanks, Vince

How many minutes of photos do you want to burn? :wink:

The capacity of a blank DVD is 4.7 GB. That depends on how you define a GB though. The 120 minute thing comes from the fact that you can store about 120 minutes of video at a certain bitrate on such a DVD.

Now to the reason why you can only burn a portion of your photos onto the DVD. How many photos do you have? What are the file sizes? I don't mean the pixel sizes of your images, the file sizes.
