    Hi Guys,

    I’m trying to burn a 60 minutes movie and a 5 minutes clip. Both exported from FCP as quick time movie.
    I’m getting an error from iDVD saying asking me to ‘enter a double layered media’
    any ideas what i need to do in order to burn both on a regular dvd ?

    Thanks for your help,

    ~ Grace

    Are you using motion menus? Did you put video into the drop zones? Maybe your main video set to different sections? iDVD is trying to encode the whole video into every drop zone in every motion menu. This is the most common cause of this problem. From Final Cut just export short sections for your motion menus.

    All the best,

    Tom

    I changed my menue, now I use NO motions but, still getting the same message.

    I sounds right. I can’t explain why it’s doing it. You might need to start all over again in a new project.

    All the best,

    Tom
