This software is taking my 22 minutes AVI and blowing up at 83%!! It's silly! The original file is 110MB. I'm usting MPEG2 for the rendering and I have indicated the mark in and mark out points in the program cutting the video down to 14'. When I check the file size of the file that it has completed, (after it blows up) I'm left with a file that is 508MB!@#$%
What is this? The file should be smaller not larger. Can't this program just make my recording as a smaller AVI ? Why can't it do this? Why can't it render in the same format as my original file?
How am I supposed to make movies? I tried increasing the paging size on my compter to 2GB! That didn't help.
Video Studio 10 keeps blowing up at 83% rendering

Welcome to the forums! 
Unfortunately, we are going to need a little more information. First, you have to realise that there are over 800 different types of Video formats that use the .AVI extension. It is just a carrier or wrapper format. And the files go from Raw AVI which is huge (65 GB per hour of video), through DV/AVI (still large at 13 GB an hour); through to the other end which are highly compressed mpeg-4 type formats such as DivX or XVid which will only take up 700 MB or less per hour of video.
Now I suspect you have one of those formats, but I can only guess as I cannot see your computer... So please right click on your .AVI file within Video Studio -- either in the timeline or in the library window, and copy ALL its Properties here please.
Now you say you are using mpeg-2 as the rendering format. Well, if indeed you have DivX/XVid video to start with, that is mpeg-4 which is much more compressed than mpeg-2. So it is natural that if you are rendering from mpeg-4 to mpeg-2, the final size will greatly increase. I am afraid there is no mystery in that -- it is simply the nature of the beast!
If you want to produce a video in the same format as your original file, then clearly you would not be choosing mpeg-2 for the rendering. You would be choosing either (1) Share > Create Video File > AVI, and then making sure you are choosing the same codec for the rendering as your original video; OR (2) if your .AVI is in the timeline first, then choose Share > Create Video File > Same as first video.
But you also don't tell us what you are planning to do with your rendered video. If you intend to burn a video DVD, then rendering it to mpeg-2 as you are doing is the correct format for a video DVD. But that means you have to accept the significant increase in file size that goes with this conversion.
.AVI is not a format which can produce a video DVD. However, if it is indeed a DivX file, and your stand-alone DVD player is rated to play DivX, then you can burn a DivX file in its original format to a CD or DVD but as an archive file, not a video file. You can't do that in Video Studio. But with such a data CD or DVD with Divx on it, then if you put it in a DivX rated player, it will play much the same as a video DVD.

Hi Ken,Ken Berry wrote:.AVI is not a format which can produce a video DVD.
When I Create>Video File>DVD with VS11.5+, the only option I see is *.AVI. Is this the reason why I cannot get audio after I create the DVD disc with *.AVI files? How do I Create Video File in Mpeg-2 format that you kept refering to? I cannot find the option. Thanks for your help.

Hi tt2ride
Make sure you are selecting the ¡VDVD-- option NOT ¡VDV--
Pal or Ntsc-DVD option produces a Mpeg 2 file, compatible for burning a DVD.
Pal or Ntsc-DV produces a Digital Video to Dv-Avi.
When selecting the DVD option make sure you select the correct aspect ratio 4:3 or 16:9.
Note
If your projects video footage is Mpeg2 then you may be best to select the same as first clip option.
But we need to know what properties/type of video files you are using in your project to advise what options to use.

tt2ride, please don't double post. It only gets confusing. Please stick to the thread you generated: http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/viewtopic.php?t=32040

I got excited when I saw the topic and having the same issue.
