Where do I change the bitrate settings on VideoStudio10

Post by na29861 »

I have downloaded the trial version of VideoStudio10. I recorded a show off the tv onto a DVD. I want to go in and edit out some of the show. I have dragged and dropped the chapters I want to burn. It shows 2hrs 41 mins. It will not all fit onto the DVD. How do I go in and edit the settings so it will fit onto the DVD?

Thanks

Are your video clips DVD compliant MPEG2? If so are you going to Share>Create Video File, first as explained in the Recommended Procedures or are you going straight to Share>Create Disc (burn module)?

If you are rendering a video file first, when you click on Create Video File, select Custom at the bottom. Then in the Save dialog window, select Options. Then go to the Compression tab and in the middle Video Data Rate you change the bitrate to a lower bit rate.

If you are skipping the render and going straight to burning, then clicking on the cogwheel icon on the last screen (burn screen), you will see a window open with the MPEG settings. Press the Change MPEG Settings button. Then as above, go to the Compression Tab, and change the Video Data Rate.
