CANNOT BURN DVD... NOT ENOUGH DISK SPACE

I have created a project using iDVD and everytime I try to burn it to a DVD I receive and error message: Not enough free disk space for encoding the remaining assets. It is a un-used blank DVD. AND I have burned this project to a DVD before. The prject itself is less than half the maximum 4.7GB. Do not understand... I can burn music and videos from iTunes no problem.

Mac OS X (10.5.4)

The problem is not the amount of space on your dvd- it's the amount of space available on your hard drive. You need to have at least 25gb of available space on the hd for idvd to do it's thing. Click on the hd, hit apple>i and that will tell you how much space you have. Then get rid of some stuff, empty the trash and try again.
