Hey MeBeJedi.....I have anothe question for you concerning this project of mine....

Now I said I was going to copy the VHS tapes to DVD with a Sony DVD Recorder, right?

Well, the recorder is capable of recording different time intervals.....there's a setting for 2 or 3 or 4 hours.
Since the SW movies are just a bit over 2 hours, I would like to record them at the 3 hour setting and then stick in the trailers also.

My question is this: When I import the VOB files into DVD-Lab...will there be a problem since there is actually 3 hours of recording time, but only 2 hours of space on the DVD? Won't that send up a red flag somewhere?

I haven't tried it yet, but I was thinking about it and wondered if that would be a problem.
I don't think it would be because there is 3 hours of recording time (at a slightly lesser quality than shorter recording times), but the VOB files take up the same file space as a 2 hour recording would.

Please let me know what you think.....or if you need further clarification. This might be a bit confusing.
