Hello, I'm new to video editing, so my questions are probably basic. I have recorded 12 classroom style teaching sessions with a Sony hdr-sr7 and the audio recorded separately converted to a wav file. They are about 1 hour each.
I did minor editing in Sony Vegas 8 Pro, syncing the audio with the video and etc.
What I hope to do is render and burn the highest quality possible and still get two one hour sessions on a dvd, using DVD Architect 4.5 in conjuntion with Vegas 8 pro.
I thought that if movie dvds can get over two hours of film and extras on a single dvd with good quality, then I should not have a problem with my final burn. I even thought there might sort of a standard out there already for this. I was wrong.
I guess I have not found the proper combination yet. What is the best way to achieve this goal?

- Render the acceptable mpeg-2 format in Vegas that dvda 4.5 wants in order to avoid recompression? This seems like it will need very low bit rate.
- Render an avi uncompressed and let dvda 4.5 do the compression?
- Some other combination I do not know about?
