Hi
A couple or three questions for you smartie pants out there.

1...If I have, say, 2 hours of film, why doesn't it fit on a 4 hour DVD, the most that the DVD will take is just under the hour.

2...When I have produced my movie do I then put that into the time line to burn it to DVD.

3...What happens to my chapters they seem to vanish when I am ready for burning, even though I have locked them into place.

Oh dear I do hope you know what I'm talking about.
Many thanks
Lynn Regards

Lynn,
1.Choose "Smart Fit" instead of 4.7
2. yes
3. Select a menu with more buttons. 6 is the maximum on display. add/create more buttons upto a max of 6.

I think the "smartie pants" reference might have put people off - didn't understand the phrase.
