Need Error Message Translated

Post by ssif21 »

When burning DVDs I get the following message:

The project content over the limitation of the project size, continue will enlarge the project size to let this action can keep going, continue?

Anyone have any idea what this means in English? Thanks.

Don't know exactly as I have never heard of this particular message before (though the wondrous English bespeaks a Taiwanese origin!!) But is your project a small one, namely less than 1 GB in size? If so, the program doesn't like burning such a small size to a DVD and will pad out the project to get over the 1 GB threshhold...

No it's not.

As a long time resident of Taiwan originating from Australia let me say this is one of the few times that my grasp of the local (but little known) language of Chinglish (that's a hard "g" in the pronunciation) has failed me.
In cases such as these one simply applies he "noodle theory."
1. Maintain an absolute "I am totally comprehending" look on your face.
2. Reinforce the look with small up and down nodding motion of the head whilst displaying a pleasant smile.
3. Agree to the action by clicking "yes" or better still "ok." OK is better because it doesn't actually state agreement.
4. Keep this thought in mind, "What the hell, it's only noodles!"
Hope this helps.

Do you mean you get this EVERY time or was this a one off?
If this happens every time and we need to look at what you are doing
are you following the recommended procedure?

Please provide a few details of the file you are working with
Could you also please complete your system details on your profile page.

Thank you

I seem to remember this little gem of a message from a recent project. I knew that the resultant DVD would require a DL disk, which I did not want to use though. When I authored to DVD folders in MF 4, I got this message. It didn't surprise me because I knew the files would be around the 6 GB mark.

I simply deducted that the message was telling me that my files would be too big to fit to a SL DVD and clicked OK. The program continued and my Video_TS folder later showed around 5.8 GB.

I used DVDShrink to reduce it to fit onto a 4.7GB DVD-R and all went well.
