Pal To Ntsc. Almost There! Just Need One More Tip, Please.

[sgtpork]

Thanks to the tips on this forum I figured out how to import a PAL Video_TS file and get Toast to convert it to NTSC. But now I have another obstacle: getting the resulting coverted video burned to a new DVD. After converting my video to NTSC, the project ended up being over 8 gigs, so Toast told me it couldn't burn it to my single-layer DVD.

 

How do I get Toast to compress that converted file to fit on one DVD? Do I just save it as an image then re-import it into Toast?

Yes, save it as a disc image and use Toast's Fit-to-DVD feature when you select the Image File setting in the Toast Copy window.
