I have a new computer so encoding is not a big deal for me, but if your computer is older it may slow everything down while you encode and it will take longer...

I use a program called divxtodvd or its also called ConvertXtodvd. Works very well for converting movies. However you will not be able to fit multiple movies onto a dvd.. Well you could, but you will lose quality.. When you convert a movie it makes the file much much larger.. On divx to dvd you can set the size you want and try it. It takes me about 30 minutes to convert a movie to dvd format. So get divxtodvd and try it out. Try setting the size in options when you convert so you can put two movies on one dvd and see how it works, maybe the quality won't decrease much.. You can set divxtodvd to burn automatically after encoding as well..
