It will depend on bitrate. Max file size will always be at 4.7 GB for SL or 8.5 GB for DL.
What type of HD are you talking about? Is it HDV at 25Mbit/s CBR? Is it HDTV at 19Mbit/s max VBR? I have Sony HDV camcorder and when I capture one hour tape to my PC the file size is about 12+ GB. So, I can fit about 20 minutes on SL DVD or 40 minutes on DL DVD. I also recorded a bunch of movies from HBO-HD. Some movies are under 8.5 GB and will fit on DL DVD. |

If you are good at encoding video, You can compress a DVD 5 movies, at near source quality in a file that is 1.5GB using Divx or Xvid (you could compress it to fit a CD but then you will loose a lot in quality). Thats a compression of 3:1. Not bad. Using this logic you should fit a 15GB Mpeg 2 HD movie. (broadcasted HD content is Mpeg 2) , via mpeg 4 compression on a DVD9. Just note that Hd movies on disk are being encoded using mpeg 4 technology (BD movies use Mpeg 2, but AVC seems to becoming more common, and just may relpace mpeg 2 on BD), which make it more difficult to compress without loosing major detail. |

You can use the wizard in VideoLan to 'repackage' a TS file as a MPG ps stream (no re-encoding so it's very fast). The resulting MPG plays just fine on the PS3 if burned to a DVD ROM. Most movies will fit on a dual-layer DVD+R.
The one drawback is that the Dolby Digital soundtrack is currently played back in stereo - there are rumors this will eventually be fixed. |
