I recently upgraded my laptop. I had completed a video project on PD9 and was ready to burn it. The file size was about 4.4GB so fitted on a disc.

When I transferred all the files to the new laptop and recreated the project on PD15 (I upgraded that too), the size of the file had increased to 5.2GB and will not burn on to a disc.

I tried inserting a dual layer disc in the hope that this would remedy the problem, but the message is still the same, that the size of the file is too large.

I really would rather not have to go back in and edit it down. Any suggestions?

Try this: In the Create disc/2D Disc change the DVD 4.7GB to 8.5GB via the drop-down arrow. After that insert the dual layer disc and it should work.

Oh wow - that was easy! Should have spotted it.

Thanks for your help
