Running a desktop I built about 2 years ago running at about 2 ghz, using 2 gig of ram on dual channel. Using XP Home ver of windows and not sure about sound card and other stuff.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

2 hour video showing up as 10 Gig in size at 'create disk'..
Little new at this stuff... At "create disk" the bar (in Video Studio Ver. 8 ) at the bottom that gives the size of the file being put onto the disk is showing about 10 or so gigs, while the finished 'project' length shows about 1 hour and 48 minutes. It's probably just an incorrect setting at some point, but where.

You also need to tell us something about your workflow up to the Create Disk point your reached. For example, after doing your editing, did you first go to Share > Create Video File > DVD, to produce a DVD compatible mpeg-2 file of your project? Or did you go straight to Share > Create Disk?

Hi Jon
You said

When you burn/create a disc, the project has first to be converted to a mpeg file.
The size in Gb is determined by the length and the Bit Rate in Kbps.
A single layer disc holds 4.3Gb of data.
A top quality video uses 8000 kbps producing 4.3 Gb per hour.
VS 8 is probably using this setting.
If the length is 1 hr 48 minutes then the bit rate has to be reduced accordingly, to keep the Gb below 4.3.
A bit rate of 4000 kbps will allow 2 hours of video for 4.3 Gb.
Using a bit rate calculator may help in determining the rates
http://dvd-hq.info/Calculator.html (good reading anyway)
The bit rate can be changed in the ¡¥burner¡¦ module.
Click the options cogwheel, lower left and select Change Mpeg Settings. I do not advise this approach,
much better to create a video file from the edit stage
To create a Mpeg video file of your project.
Go to Share- Create Video File.
Using the ¡¥Custom¡¦ option
Media Type DVD set the Bit Rate to 4000
Read my Guide below re:- bit rates and file sizes
