Jeff,

I did as you said and wala 12500kbps bitrate! I even created a slideshow and went through the same and it came out as expected. I really thank you for helping me out. PD is a good product but they really need to fix 2 major flaws:

1. The estimation size of create disc projects
2. Allow custom bitrate on create disc

Next on to see if I can actually create an entire project with everything correct.

Thanks again!

Jeff

I have owned just about all of the popular video editors and NONE of them can correctly estimate the final size accurately. There are too many variables from frame to frame, intraframe compression and interframe compression. Intel i7 4770k, 16GB, GTX1060 3GB, Two 240GB SSD, 4TB HD, Sony HDR-TD20V 3D camcorder, Sony SLT-A65VK for still images, Windows 10 Pro, 64bit

BTW Roxio does a very good job in estimating project size which I have used for years. I only looked for another product because my current version does not burn Blu Ray nor does it handle large projects very well.

PD is a good product and is now meeting my needs (Thanks Jeff!) but the PD team would benefit from looking at Roxio and similar products to provide additional flexibility in menu creation and create disc options, plus the size estimation which appears to have been an issue through many versions.

Thanks to all. I have been able to create multiple disc while retaining the desired bitrate.

Jeff
