Burning In Creator 2010

[rosalie 41]

I have a file which is 3825.1 MB. I've been trying to burn it on a DVD which is 4.7GB. As I go through the burning, it checks OK all the sections but it does not check the encode movies section. At the end it gives a message that the destination drive does not have enough space Then it gives me a message 800-4003 Error while aborting. I want to know: What gives? The file is smaller than the disk. Where do I go to find what 800-4003 error means? Is it possible a time constraint the problem? I have shorten the file immensely and still is a problem. Looking forward for your reply. Thanking you in advance

File size means almost nothing as a video file can have different sizes depending on the format of the video. For example a 60 minute video in the DV-avi format will be about 13GB in size. The same video when converted to to the format required for a DVD at best quality will be around 4.3Gb in size. Other format can compress the video to even smaller sizes. With each compression you of course will lose some quality.

 

So basically the timelength of your video and the video quality you choose will define whether it will fit on a DVD. As a rule, you can get 60 minutes of video on a standard 4.3GB DVD at the best quality setting. The longer the video the more compression is required and the quality suffers.. How much compression you are willing to accept is of course your decision.
