The meters in the Status pane give information about the size of your project and the progress of background file encoding.
Movies that you place in an iDVD project must be encoded to a certain format that conforms to official DVD specifications. If your computer's performance slows down due to so much intense processing, you can choose to turn off background encoding in iDVD Preferences. When you finish your project, iDVD will properly encode the files before burning the project to a disc. |
