Yes it will compress a 3 hour film onto 4.7gb DVD-R.

See this page

I'm pretty sure that it's the same software that I used to compress longer movies onto a 2 hour Dvd-R on my old computer.

Just copy the files using the software like you would a CD onto your hard drive and it will tell you how much data is there.

Then if it's over 4.87 then it will give you various compression settings to achieve the desired result.
