Sorry I really thought it was a joke post. A DVD can contain all the way up to 9.4 Gigabytes of Data for a dual layer DVD, a single layer DVD can contain up to 4.7 Gigabytes of Data, a Gigabyte (Gb) is 1000 Megabytes (Mb) so you,re talking 9,400 Megabytes for a Dual Layer DVD and 4,700 MB for a Single layer DVD, a CD Disk can contain 700 Megabytes, so the only way you're going to put 4,700Mb on a 700Mb disk, is to compress the hell out of the Data, resulting in a severe loss in the quality of the DVD Playback. One of the most popular compression softwares on the market is DivX, DivX will compress the DVD Data down to an acceptable viewing level at around 1200Mb which can be burnt to 2, 700Mb CD Disks, giving you the playback quality of a VCR Tape and its called a VCD, with some serious unpleasant quality reduction and glitches compared to an actual DVD playback. A TV component DVD Player would have to have the capability of playing back a VCD, to play the recording in the first place, just a straight out DVD Player will not playback VCDs.
In my personal opinion with DVD burner prices as low as they are today it would be a complete waste of money to even put any money at all into going that route, some of the ripped(Def Below) DVD movies today even have to be compressed a little to fit on a single layer disk unless you use 2 DVD disks, but thats a very slight amount of compression compared to the compression it takes to fit the DVD to a CD Disk. I reccommend to you to get yourself an all format DVD Burner, I saw a LiteOn all format 8x burn rate DVDRW for less than $150.00, my CDRW new, cost me more than that, if you're determined to go the VCD route I'll post information sites for you below, but I strongly urge you to go with a DVDRW.
Ripped= Using a software program like Smartripper or DVD Decrypter or DVD Shrink ETC. and a DVDROM drive to copy the DVD Data files to a hardrive, to either convert or straight burn to either a DVD or CD disk.
These links below will lead you to whatever you need.
