Can videostudio 10 auto fit your compliation to a DVD?

I cannot find a button that does this. It sure would be nice rather than monkey with the most optimal bitrate. My old pinnacle software could do this but it was buggy as heck.

So there is not a button eh?

How come there is a button in version 9 but not 10? What gives?

Only Ulead can answer that - we are users like yourself.

I only have the trial of VS10+ right now, so take this FWIW.

VS10 was a major rebuild with many UI changes. Sometimes when this is done simplification is the order of the day. With this in mind it looks like the button was removed in favor of a simple dialog box that comes up only when necessary.

Ex: when I create a compilation that is too large and click the "Burn" button I get this dialog;

If I click "Yes" and the compilation is grossly oversized (say 7g fitting to a 4.7g disc) it will politely tell me that even with a lower bitrate the situation is hopeless;

This doesn't happen if the project is slightly oversized, it just proceeds to encode to a lower bitrate.

Terry,
Thanks for that, I didn't test to see what happened if I hit burn when I knew it wouldn't fit. I will tag this onto the end of the tutorial.

Yeah thanks a bunch I'll have to try that again.
