I encoded an AVi movie file with TMPgen encoder-the quality was excellent but file on MPEG2 was approximately 8.8GB. The length of movie was 123min long.
Is any way to make it to fit in a single DVD.

You need to lower the bitrate. You can use a DVD calculator to find the optimal values.

You could earler think and calculate Cool Try with recommended "DVD Shrink" or on DVD+R9 (named DVD+R DL; ~8.5 GB) fit Wink
And why you need so high bitrate ? You can use VBR bitrate (AVR ~7000-8000 kb/s) and this file will be ~30% less. You can alsow split this file on 2 DVD with no problems Cool

try to use dvd-lab pro, there's an option in there to shrink your mpeg-2 file. Happened to me before and shrunk my 6gig mpeg-2 to about 4.3 and didn't notice a difference in quality between original.

The loss of quality will, naturally, depend on how much you need to reduce the files. The good thing about software like DVD Shrink is that it re-uses the motion search data from the original MPEG, so it's much faster than recompressing everything.
