I am converting all my VHS movies to DVD's. Now how much video can I fit in a single DVD. I want to put 2 or 3 movies per dvd. Is there a program that lets you do that. Most of them only let me record 2 hours per DVD.

Well, its all a matter of quality.
The simplest way for you to get more on is to build say 3 or 4 hours to your DVD image, the use DVDshrink to shrink it down to size, then burn it. Your milage may vary depending on the quality of the image and the type of show you are recording.
IE I have had some really wierd results with a few really old cartoons (1950's warner brothers stuff mostly, probably because the image is pretty bad to start with), but most modern ones can be shrunk quite a bit. I have had no problems with most of my kids videos, I have done over a hundred now.
I suspect any more than 2 on a DVD is going to be to much, but experiment with some DVDrw's and see how you go.
