Question Splitting a chaptered project

Hi Derek and All,

I have chaptered a bluray concert and when rendered in the make movie [Movie Studio 17 Platinum] Then manually imported to DVDA [as you advised] It comes out at 40gb...Is there a way of splitting this at a particular chapter point WITHOUT having to delete after that point and making a seperate project for the second part?....Thank you in advance

Hi Paul

What size Writable Blu-ray discs did you buy ?
25GB or 50GB ?
If you bought 50GB dual layer discs, your 40GB project should fit onto one disc.

I don't really understand your question?
If you are only using 25GB discs, you will have to split the project into 2 halves.
OR
You could use Custom Bit Rates and compress the entire video, so that it's total size is less than 25GBs.

There is an online Disc Calculator you can use, which will tell you what Bit Rates to render your video with here:

If you decide on this option, you'll probably need help in how to use it.
Let me know and I'll upload a screen shot of the settings to use.

Regards
Derek
