I am trying to burn a project to disc. PD reports that 6,703MB is needed. I have a double layer disc in the drive which is empty and has 7,960MB free. However, when I click on Burn, PD gives me an error message that there is insufficient disc space. I have no idea why this is happening, can anyone shed some light on this? Can PD not burn double layer discs?

Thanks!

Try this: Go to the Create Disc/2D Disc tab. Click the DVD button near the top left of the screen and change it from 4.7 to 8.5 with the drop down arrow.

Thanks so much for the info. I found it and changed it and a disc is in process. There are so many things that the software does you just don't know where to look to find the answers!
