222 Burn disc
After every simulation you can access the created file on the hard disk to
check how large the file has become.
From the results, you can extrapolate how much disc space your disc
project will require. The memory requirements of a 5-minute disc project
would have to be multiplied by 20 in order to estimate the space required for
a 100-minute movie. You should also add buffer for the selection menu.

Separate proj
ect onto multiple discs
Automatically: If the disc project requires more memory than is available on
the CD or DVD, a dialog will appear before burning asking whether the disc
project should be automatically segmented for multiple discs. Confirm this
by clicking “Yes”. The disc project will then be automatically divided into
individual disc projects and burned sequentially onto multiple discs. This is
the easiest method since everything is automatic, and all you have to do is
insert a new blank CD when required.
Manual
Case 1: If several movies do not fit onto a single disc...
In this case, switch back to the “Record” screen and delete as many movies
as is needed until the remaining movies fit onto the disc. You can create a
new disc project and load and burn the other movies afterwards.
Case 2: When a long film doesn’t fit onto a disc...
In this case, the movie has to be split into two or more parts that will be
burned separately onto disc.
Switch back to the "Edit" view and place the start marker to the position at
which you wish to divide the movie. In the "Edit" menu, select "Cut ->
Separate movie".
All passages behind the start marker will be
removed from the movie and made into a
smaller movie. Both movies can be moved
using the "Select to edit" menu in the arranger.
Save both of them separately to your hard disk
(“Save movie” menu option, for example, as
“Part 1” and “Part 2”).
Remove one of the two movies (for example, "Part 2") from the disc project
("Manage movies -> Remove movie (view page 281)" menu option).
Switch to the "Burn" interface and burn the first film ("Part 1") to CD or
DVD.
