  • Totlal Menu Size : Less than 1GB, but no go

    Posted by Keif_leaf on April 14, 2005 at 5:06 pm

    Hi,
    I’m having a problem with the total menu size of my project. Here’s what adobe says:

    Total Size Of Menus
    Checks that the total size of each menu class doesn’t exceed the DVD limit of 1 gigabyte per class. Each aspect ratio used in an asset, or different audio formats represent a distinct class.

    My menu content is all MPEG-2 (all 4:3) video backgrounds and WAV audio. The MPEGs add up to 777.44 MB, while the WAVs add up to 507.33 MB (I’m including every usage of the files, even if on multiple menus, in this total). Both are less than 1 GB, but I keep getting the “Total Menu Size Exceeds Limit” when I check the project. If I try to build anyway it fails. What am I missing here?

    Any Help is appreciated,
    Keif

    777.44 plus 507.33 equals 1284.77 which is larger than 1024… 😉

    Converting (compressing) the audio to Dolby Digital should get you back on track.
