Photo Story 3 with Sonic DVD for photo Story 3

D

dd2xs

I installed the plug in and it worked as it should until I try to make
the DVD. When I reach the page to save the cd I chose the now lit save
for DVD. Then I select the make DVD on the sonic screen and I get a
message saying there is not enough space on the DVD to copy the story
and the pictures. Copy fewer items to the DVD or Create a small story
and try again.


Now the total size of my saved story is 6.73 MB. What could be the
problem?

====================================
Just wondering....6.73 MB and not GB?
Have you previously burned DVDs
successfully?

Just to clairify...do you have a DVD-RW
burner and are you using a DVD blank
that is compatible with it? In some cases...
burners are not compatible with all types
of DVD media. Some burners are only
compatible with DVD-R or DVD+R...but
not both.

And...how long is your project?

John, I know it's crazy, Yes I have burned cd and dvds before, It is
a small project. 30 photos and music. In fact I burned this same
project successfully before using windows media player. I don't know
what happened after I installed the plug in.

Oh...hey, now I recognize you.

Apparently something went wrong
when you installed the plug-in. Maybe
it's incompatible with some of your
software or maybe it was a bad install.

I would try doing a system restore to
a time before you installed it...close
all running programs and try installing
it again. If you have recently installed IE7
or WMP11 I would suspect the problem
could be related.
