5.0 GB

Hello,
I used Compressor in FCP to export an mpeg 2 file for DVDSP. This took 8 hours and it's a 4.31 GB file. I import it into DVDSP and up top in my project window it tells me that the dvd size is 5.0 GB. Do I need to recompress it out of FCP or can I do that in DVDSP so that the 2 hours will fit, along with a small menu?
Thanks a lot.

So I made another m2v with compressor out of fcp. this time i chose the br to be average 3.7 mbps (original too-big m2v file was 5.0 mbps). this new file is 4.75 GB whereas the 5.0 mbps file was 4.31 GB. don't know why the lower br produced a larger file?
Not sure, it really shouldn't be doing that, something is wrong. How long is the running time on your movie?
3.75 should fit over 2-1/2 hours on a DVD-5 with AC3 audio at 192
