How many minutes can a DVD record?
29 October 2021
A single-sided 4.7GB DVD takes about 2 hours in standard (SP) mode.
The 8.5GB single-sided dual-layer recording type takes about 3.6 hours in standard (SP) mode.
The time that can be recorded varies depending on the content of the video. If the video has a lot of movement, it will take a lot of space, so the recording time will be shorter. Also, in the case of general high image quality mode, it takes about 1 hour with 4.7GB on one side, and in the case of long time mode, it takes about 6 hours or more. Regarding this point, please refer to the instruction manual of the DVD recorder for the recording mode and recordable time.
