Well, a full-rate DVD (10 Mbits/s) would last about 60 minutes on a 4.4
GB DVD(-/+)R(W).

3 hours means an average encoding at 3.2 Mbits/s which is still possible
if you do not take more than a stereo sound and no fast scene change
(with a Mpeg2 encoder good enough for P & B frames).

A DVD-DL would be about 8.5 GB and hold 114 minutes at full rate. 3
hours would be fine with an average at 6.5 Mbits/s, which is rather good.

Now the question can be: is it really needed to have a true DVD format ?
Or can it just be a storage DVD with mpeg4 on it ?
