I note you have asked around this a few times :-

The simple answer is yes you can import this file into the library, and yes you can add chapters and menus and yes you can create a disc. What PD will do with your file regards "compression", I cannot say.

You would be best advised to try it and then see whether PD does what you want. You may choose to burn to folder to save wasting a disc if that is preferable. This may also allow you to use other burning software should you wish at a later date.

From your previous posts I suspect you may be advised to research the relationship between DVD file structures and Mpeg2 and the real data capacity of discs. Here are a couple of quotes from other sources that may illustrate things:-

"Keep in mind that manufacturers quote the capacity of a writable DVD disc in decimal (base 10) rather than binary (base 2) notation so a 4.7 GB disc stores 4.7 billion bytes [4:700,000,000 bytes ÷ 1000 = 4,700,000 KB ÷ 1000 = 4,700 MB ÷ 1000 = 4.7 GB] . Expressed in binary notation (as is typical with CD-R, CD-RW and most operating systems) the same disc has a capacity of roughly 4.38 GB [4:700,000,000 bytes ÷ 1024 = 4,589,844 KB ÷ 1024 = 4,482.27 MB ÷ 1024 = 4.38 GB] ."

"True data capacity for recording is 7.95Gb the rest of the space is required for data overheads table of contents etc that the disc needs to have written to it for it to be read."

Yes, thank for the simple answer and the links to understanding DVD and Format relationships better.
I appreciate your time and advisements.
