These are the settings i need to know how to set To get my video to fit on my disk. The program this is from is Magix Movie Ediit Pro MX 18 Classic. I am using Memorex DVD+R Dual Layer Disk  8x 8.5GB 240MIn. for some reason my movie gets cut off after the first 5 chapters the other 5 don't even play it go's back to the first one. can some one tell me how to set these setting so all i have to do is place a disk in and burn my film after i am done editing it. the info on the first photo is the film i am trying to burn and i am have trouble with this is very frustrating to me. I hope some one can help me i would realy like to continue using this product.

This is the info of my film the used media space is 2182MB/4489MB im guessing this is the size of my movie? The disk info is DVD+R 9DL wich im guessing this means Dual Layer? The disk capacity is 8152MB & The free space is the same 8152 MB so i need to know what to set these & all the advance options to make my movie fit and so that i can set these options and save them so all i have to do is edit my film and then just put in the disk and burn it.

Hi

In this case your video will fit on to a standard single layer disc of 4.7Gb. You do not need to use a dual layer disc.

The only time you would need to use a dual layer disc is where the video is greater than 2 hours long.  The default settings are normally good enough for viewing a standard DVD on a widescreen TV. 

For an HD TV with a good upscaling player the only settings I change for a standard DVD 16:9 widescreen are :-

1. Video Quality - I set this to 15

2. Video Bitrate - I set this to maximum and then adjust downwards if necessary providing the movie is no longer than 2 hours (You will get a message asking you to adjust the bitrate automatically if the movie will fit on the disc.)
