Re: Fitting two hours on a DVD...why can't I?

As much as I hate Nero due to their poor support - I use them over the
Sonic that came with Media Center for this type of reason. Also; doesn't
Sonic take well into 1 to 2 hours to create a DVD - whereas Nero takes much
less time. Maybe I'm being mislead as I use VideRedo to remove the
commercials, save as a VOB then use Nero to create DVD. Even after the
conversions of removing ad's and using Nero - it is WAY faster than Sonic.
