I created a 59 minute iMovie. When converting it to iDVD it said the video was too long for the "best quality". I went back and edited it down to about 57 minutes (I forget the exact steps and pop up messages, but that was the gist). I finished the iDVD menus and burned it. Later I decided I'd see if there was room to add photos to the iDVD file since stills are very small by comparison. I checked the status and it said I only had used 2.0 of 4.0 gigs. Huh? I imported about 100 photos, created a 5 minute slide show and the program didn't give me any pop up windows saying the file was full. When I checked the status, it said I had now used 2.3 of 4.0 gigs. That makes sense, since 5 minutes of video = about 300MB.
Did iDVD automatically switch to a lower quality format and not tell me? If so, is there some way to force iDVD to NOT switch quality? I want to make sure I'm always using the best quality since I watch the DVDs on a large screen (96" home theater screen that is). Thanks.
