I'm pretty new at this but I have Roxio Easy Media Creator 7 and when I
went to burn a video to DVD, a popup appeared that said it was too big,
did I want to shrink it to fit. I said OK and it burned it to the
single DVD. From what I understand, what it does is to compress the
video and record it at a lower resolution which may or may not be
noticeable. In my case, I was using VHS tapes as the source so the DVD
looks at least as good as the original tapes. Also, other software for
video editing/capture may offer the shrink options. Maybe Sonic
does--you could check their site for tech support or a help forum.
