"How can you copy a DVD-9 movie to a DVD-5 disc?
Is there any effective DVD-9 to DVD-5 shrink
software to use? DVD is an optical disc storage
media format with a higher storage capacity than
CD and is widely used to store data. There are
many types of DVD discs, including DVD5, DVD10,
DVD9 and DVD18. Among them, DVD-5 and DVD-9 are
the two most common types of DVD types used by
the general public. Many people get the plan to
shrink DVD-9 to DVD-5 with the hope of less
quality compression and larger storage saving.
This guide explains what DVD9 and DVD5 are and
how to copy DVD9 to DVD5 with high quality
retained.

Part 1 DVD9 vs. DVD5
There are 4 standard formats of DVD DVD5, DVD10,
DVD9 and DVD18. DVD-5 holds 4.7GB and is
supported by the DVDR/RW and DVD-R/RW formats.
It is also known as Single-Sided Single Layer.
DVD-10 holds 8.75GB and is supported by the
DVDR/RW and DVD-R/RW formats. It is also known
as Double-Sided Single Layer. DVD-9 holds 8.5GB
and is supported by the DVDR and DVD-R formats.
It is also known as Single-Sided Double Layer
(sometimes called Dual Layer). The official names
are DVD-R DL and DVDR DL. DVD-18 holds 15.9GB
and is supported by the DVDR format. It is also
known as Double-Sided Double Layer (or
Double-Sided Dual Layer). DVD-5 is an acronym
that means a DVD disc that is one-sided
single-layer disc and can contain up to 4.38
gigabytes of data on it. A DVD-5 (single sided)
DVD-Video disc will hold nominally 133 minutes of
high quality MPEG-2 encoded video, together with
three surround-sound audio channels and four
subtitle channels. (Without video compression one
DVD-5 disc would hold only about 3 minutes of
video).
DVD-9 can hold approximately 7.95 gigabytes of
data. DVD-9 DVD-Video discs are problematic for
DVD-R owners, because the cheap, writable
single-layer DVDR discs can only hold the same
amount of data that DVD-5 discs contain, due
technical reasons. However, there are several
ways to copy a DVD-9 disc to a standard, single
layer DVD-R or DVDR disc. DVD-9 is nowadays
often used as the marketing term for dual layer
DVD-R and DVDR discs and use of that name is
quite appropriate as the dual layer recordable
discs can hold exactly the same amount of data as
"pressed" DVD-9 discs can.
