I use Magix Plus De Lux.

Is it possible to check the size of my finish film before burning video?

Description of my case

I prerared project lasting 35 minutes with mix of photos, effects, films, subtitles and etc.

I would like to burn my film on DVD disc on the HD quality in order to watch it on TV set.

It turned out that my film need more memory that I have on DVD disc.

I thought to reduce some movies, but question is how many is needed to remove ?

Is it any way to quickly check size of my future high quality film in order to fit film to size of disc?

Please use the Search box first. 'fit disc' gaves results where this question has been asked, and answered, many time before eg:

Fully agree with what Carl has posted, but also you need to be aware that you cannot burn to DVD at "HD quality". DVDs can only ever be created at SD (Standard Definition) unless you are burning AVCHD DVD (which demands a Blu-ray player to play it back.) In this case the absolute maximum playing time per DVD is about 30 minutes.

HTH.
