I am unsure where to post this but here we go. I have a Mpeg movie at 6gig and want to put it on a 4.7gb disk is there a compression progie or a way to do this without losing too much quality. Thanks all.
 
2GB sure is a lot of loss/compression. I noticed your title is dual layer; so why not use just 1 quality DL DVD (DVD9)? They are 7.9GB instead of that 4.38GB DVD5.

(1024 megabytes = 1 gigabyte, not the 1000 megabytes marketers use / "Japanese gigabytes")

DVD5 a one-sided single-layer disc that can contain up to 4.38 gigabytes.
DVD9 a single-sided dual-layer disc that can hold approximately 7.95 gigabytes.
DVD10 a two-sided DVD5-type disc that hold single data layer on both sides; it can contain up to 8.75 gigabytes of data, with 4.38 gigabytes on each side.
DVD18 a two-sided DVD9-type disc with two layers of data on both sides of the disc; it can contain up to 15.9 gigabytes of data on it, with 7.95 gigabytes on each side.
 
I agree, I would buy a DL DVD for it.
 
Most places online and office depot/max stores around me. I get 25 packs of Verbatim DVD+R DL for $28-$33
