iDVD 6 question at DVinfo.net

Colby Knight · June 28th, 2006, 12:15 PM

I have spent the better part of an hour searching and researching the question(s) I'm about to ask. I apologize in advance if it's been discussed or asked before. Bear with me.

I know iDVD5 (which I have) can't fit more than 2 hours of video on a DVD. That really blows for me because the project I'm finishing up runs 2 hours... and 5 minutes! Grr! Man, talk about irony. That felt like a sucker punch!

Is there any way to stuff all that time on to a DVD using iDVD5... or do I need to find a way to cut 9,000 frames out of my project?

Or do I just need to figure out how to DVDSP4?

Does iDVD6 have the same time limit constraint (2 hours max) as iDVD5?

Again, my apologies for asking something that has probably been discussed before. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nathaniel, I know on iDVD5 when I change it to best quality that I'm still limited to only 2 hours of video. Does iDVD6 allow more than 2 hours of video under the best quality setting?
