Encore Blu-Ray DL project: Not enough space on media... despite having 13GB free...

Please help...

I worked years to put my study project/film on a proper DVD to share the finished work with everyone who was involved...

The DVD (a DL almost 8GB DVD) works perfectly fine, Encore find's it's own layer break and voilà: ISO and then burn to Disk, plays beautifully. 

 

Now I painstakingly recreated this Disk with many Menus and many smaller videos and one long movie for a Blu-Ray project. 

After trying to create the ISO I always get "Code 25 not enough space on media".

This does not make sense. The Blu-Ray is supposed to be a DL (almost) 50GB one and all timelines could fit on just one layer: One video and audio timeline combined are about 22GB, then several small video timelines with 200MB - 6GB. All in all there is 34GB needed. ENough space for a DL, right? The big timeline has enough chapters so I don't see a reason not to find a layer break point...

 

Can someone please help me troubleshooting, I'm going insane... I'd like to know how to see that log file after the error but I just can't find out how...

 

I'm on an iMac with 10.12.6 with the latest and last Encore version available (back when I could download it with my CC subscription, so sadly I can't download it to another computer or even Windows...).

Does your harddrive have enough space to make the iso first. You need losts of space.

I found out it's a common problem with creating DL Blu-Rays in Encore...

The workaround is to create a BD Folder... this worked...

Thanks for the suggestions!

Is your blu-ray drive dual layer compatible?  It's been a few years since I've had to do anything but the simplest blu-ray in Encore.  You might try different software like roxio toast.  

But the reason I haven't had to burn any blu-ray's recently is cause very few people are using them...  An high quality h264 file on a usb3 thumb drive will work great.
