Thanks for the replies. Nigel has reminded me that it was called Fit to disc (not shrink) and I believe it was a prompt in DVDA, but now it just automatically reduces files imported into new projects – I checked in Preferences but couldn’t find any way to undo the auto shrinking…any clues about this?

I would like to learn about encoding within Vegas and how to make a DVD in DVDA without it re-encoding but am completely ignorant and a bit daunted – in MS 12 at the render stage would I render the video and audio separately selecting the MainConcept MPEG-2 and Dolby Digital AC-3 Studio settings respectively? Or is there an existing tutorial someone could point me to?
