Setting the Disc Size
The DVD Studio Pro default is set to a 4.7 GB DVD-5. This setting affects both the actual
disc burning process when you finish your project and the disc meter icon in the toolbar.
In addition to showing the estimated project size numerically, the disc meter also shows
how full the disc is getting graphically. The disc meter uses the project’s disc size setting
to determine the disc’s capacity.
As long as you intend to burn DVD-5 discs, the disc meter is accurate. If you intend to
burn a blue laser, dual-layer, or 8 cm disc, you need to set the disc size to the proper
format so that the disc meter reflects the changed requirements of your project.

• Select the project’s name (next to the disc icon) in the Outline tab.
• Click an empty area in the Graphical tab.
