What does this message mean & what did I do wrong to get

Post by D7CEJ01 »

In VS9 I created a DVD project and then went to burn a .iso image. The screen indicated the file was about 4.2 GB. When I selected burn I got this message in a pop-up window:

"The project content over the limitation of the project size to let this action can keep going. Continue?"

I answered "yes" and it created the .iso image file. I burned that image to a DVD with Nero but it was a coaster - would not play on computer or stand-alone DVD player. I recreated the project doing what I think were the same steps but did not get this message and the DVD was ok.

Any idea of what information that message was trying to convey to me?

I believe that message is Ulead language saying that your .MPEG2 file or ISO image is larger than the DVD you want to put it on.

VS9 has a new "Fit to Burn" option which allows you to go ahead with a project that comes out a little over the limit. I just burned such a project last night, though it took much longer than a project that fit.

But if you did not alter one single thing on your second time around with the same project, and had no such problem, then possibly it was a glitch.
