Anyone know if it's possible to make the creation of the dvd, based on size rather than the Time/Duration of the files?

As I have like 6 files with the total 3.9GB size but 90 Minutes Duration and therefor can't use all in with the menu. Any help would be helpfull.

I think 1 hour max is a bit wierd after the Menu it self is completed, but i might missed something or done something wrong

Nothing weird, DVD's have been out since the late 90's and it was the Standard that was created for them...

An Audio CD holds 80 minutes of Music. You can't put 81 minutes on one and have an Audio CD!

If you want HQ for 90 minutes you need to utilize a DL disc or break it up into 2 discs. (time to move to BD?)

That is the maximum for the highest quality video.  With more compression, you can get more time, but the quality will suffer.  For my personal taste, I wouldn't put more that 90min on a DVD.  The bitrate falls to about 6.2MB which is acceptable in my opinion.  You have to do some tests to see what is acceptable to you.
