Could someone take me step by step through the process of creating these markers on the DVDarchitect?

I did a test burn this morning but I think I did something wrong...My mpg2 file is only 83MB, roughly 2 1/2 minutes, it became two hundred something MB on DVD, why?...I created four chapters on the scene selection page by dragging the same mpg2 files to the page and create in point from there...Is this the right way? I read about import makers from Vegas 4...how?...Are these the chapter marker?...Will these procedure gonna save me some space?

Thank you all in advance...

To make a scene selection you only have to drag once the mpg. Double click on it and you enter to the properties page, put your markers here.. Go up to the main page. Right click on the mpg an select insert scene selection. Automatically you have a new button with the scene selection inside. If you wish to have the selection on the main page you could enter to the new menu, select all the butons and copy them to the clipboard. Go up to the main and select the two buttons tha you have there and delete them. Copy the clipboard contents to the main menu, and you have the scene selection to the main menu.

If you drag your mpg more then once, you put several copies of your mpg to the menu, and this means several MB wasted.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks Josaver. I did just that and it multiplies by four on the burn.
