Anyone here burn videos onto DVD?

[brentspeak]

I've got a bunch of 50min videos on my hard drive that are about 350,000KB each in .Avi format. I converted some of them to mpeg2 format, but now they're a whopping 700,000KB each, and my DVD authoring program says that each mpeg2 will take up a total of around 3Gb. What's a good way to burn two of the videos onto a single blank DVD of 4.7Gb, without losing a lot of quality from the original .Avi? Do I have to convert the .Avi's to mpeg2? Is there another format that a DVD standalone player will recognize?
