Roxio Easy DVD Question

Roxio refuses to make copies of DVDs I'm creating using Cyberlink
PowerProducer. It tells me the files won't fit. What am I missing?
I'm using blank single layer DVDs all around.

Thanks.

How much fits depends on the version of the software. Some are limited to 60

So the maximum amount of date write-able on a DVD depends on the
version of Roxio you are using? Amazing! Might I ask why that would
be?
 
Roxio now owns Sonic and my experience is mostly with MyDVD software... but

An entry level DVD version of MyDVD that comes with a computer (like v4.5
with my first burner) is limited to 60 minutes of content.

My version of MyDVD 6 says it can put up to 3 hours of content on a disc,
doing so by using higher levels of MPEG-2 compression, similar to Movie
Maker using higher compression to made a movie file smaller. It has an
option for 4 levels of quality (HQ, SP, LP and EP like VCR recorders). But
on some versions of MyDVD, when you try to use this option you get a
marketing message saying you need a higher version of the software.

The why is to get you started, but to sell you a higher version if you want
to use more features than the basic...
 
Thanks, for the explanation. I guess a simple bit level copy is not
something that is allowed? For copyright control reasons?
 
I should have said this in my previous post. I don't need any
compression. All I'm trying to do is make copies of an existing DVD
whose content has already been compressed by PowerProducer.
