Project exceeds DVD space.
After finally finishing the transcoding I was hit with another problem. The project exceeds DVD space. I deleted the slideshow, trimmed the clip back about five seconds (since I can’t take more) and made the menu still instead of animated as it was. I’m using an 8.5GB/240min blank dual layer DVD. I don’t know what else to do to make this project fit.
As you can see it shows me there’s plenty of room at first but that’s not the truth of it at all.
What can I do to make this fit? Thank you.

[Nery Romero] “After finally finishing the transcoding I was hit with another problem.”
Does Encore error when building? Or did you look at the size and conclude it is too big? In either event, what is your calculation of the total size from the transcoded files?
Unrelated to whether there is in fact too much, problems with locating a layer break can be an issue if there are very long sections.

I get a message after the menu building is done that says something like “project exceeds DVD limit”.

What were your transcode settings?
Do you have any ROM content?

There’s about 512kb of rom. I’m not sure of the transcode settings as I’m not with my computer at this time. I’ll reply about that ASAP. Sorry

I tried to check my transcode settings but it’s greyed out when I right click the premiere pro file.

Check your project and see if there if there are any problems there. If you have orphan timelines or menus, it includes them in your total project size. But then it does usually show up in the size indicator too. One area to check anyway

Hi Nery,
Curious – what is the length of the video?
Thanks

The length of the video goes for 02 hours and 32 minutes

All the comes up when I check project is “Trims and/or chapters adjusted” for the video. I did trim a couple of minutes from the video when I first found out it was much for the side of the DVD.

Nery,
Are you using Dynamic Link from Premiere, or did you encode your assets from Premiere using Adobe Media Encoder? If AME, what is the data rate?
Also, if you imported assets into Encore, I believe that if you trim the video at all, it then needs to transcode again = quality loss. So maybe not worth the 5 seconds you trimmed.
Thanks
