Four hours on a disk

If I edit and save 8 30-minute video segments in MPEG-2 to burn on a DVD, how do I get 4 hours on a 2-hour disk?

With great difficulty and loss of quality

I would prefer to split it over two disks. If you want it on one, do not exceed the bitrate around 2000 kbps for the rendering to mpeg2 for DVD.

I have used Nero Recode to get 4+ hours of video on one 4.7G disk.
Use the 2 pass encoding, most of the video doesn't seem to loose quality while viewing.
