Hey all, I'm new to the community and to Nero as well. I've got a problem, let me try to explain: I was using a 7 GB HD to burn (write in the HD actually, I'd burn after) about 80 videos 4 GB worth, but I did some mistakes. I chose the temporary files folder in this same 7 GB HD, so when it was transcoding the videos from .mpg to DVD (NeroVision), it made a 4 GB worth temporary files, then started creating the video files (VIDEO_TS folder etc), meaning I'd need more 4 GB to complete the burning (when there was only 3 GB left, 4GB were occuped by the temporary files) and thus the burning project failed of course (I didn't imagine it'd made 4 GB temp files worth >_>). Bottom line is, I still have the 4 GB temporary files and I'm wondering if with them it's possible to burn the videos again but this time without having to transcode everything to DVD (took me 2 days in this slow PC). Of course I'd choose now a HD with more space. If it's not possible I'll just start a new project in a HD with more space, I just wanted save time =\ Sorry if the way I told my problem is confusing >_>
To do a conversion of files to DVD format you will need twice the size as what the output DVD is going to be. So if the output DVD is lets say 4.30GB you will need around 9GB to convert it. It will make and store converted files into the Temp files folder and then it will need to use the Temp files to make the DVD. This needing twice the space you are needing for the DVD your trying to create.
