How many film reels will fit on a DVD?
A DVD will store about 2 hours of your movies. For minimum compression we sometimes recommend transferring only 60 minutes of content to one DVD. Most 8mm film were sold and processed on 3-inch reels, however, it was common to splice film together and put them on larger reels. Please use the following as a guide. Please separate your film by the number of individual DVDs required.
