So may I just clarify something? One can store anything on a DVD, even HD footage at very high resolution (eg. 1920×1080). The problem is that standard DVD players can’t play it, right?
So if our motivate is to reproduce our wonderful original HD footage as best as possible, there’s nothing we can do with DVDs that will produce better resolution and be playable on home DVD players (even if it is only a 10 minute video, and there’s plenty of room on the DVD for it)?
