Understood. Thank you so much for your help and the resource link.

Thanks that was massively helpful!

That brought it down to 852mb instead of 3.4gb. But it still increased it quite a bit from the original 153mb. I did another short video that shows my setting changes. I just don't understand how it can still be more when the video is actually 4 minutes shorter.

Any more tweaks to share?

Thanks again!

So my original file of a 1:17 minute video was 153mb.

I cut off about 4 minutes inside cyberlink 17

rendered it.

New file is now 3.43gb.

I don't understand how rendering a video with the same resolution (1280x720) can be so much bigger than the original.

Am I missing an obvious setting?

Thanks for any time or attention you can give.

See quick screencast below for the properties of the before and after video as well as my production settings before I rendered.
