2 DVD sizes means that you may produce single layer DVD (approx. 80 min. very good quality) or dual layer DVD (approx. 180 min.). Here you have a calculator to estimate how much you may fit into each type of disc vs. compression quality.

Repeat: MPEG1 is not allowed in the DVD standard. If you capture your VHS to MPEG1, the video will be once again lossy re-encoded when authored to DVD. The effect will be just terrible.
