So, I"m importing from a DVD that's 1.59 file size.  I edited what I needed to and then rendered....when it's done and saved to my desktop it's 95 gb.  HOW?!? Clearly I'm doing something, but what????

    Simple -- DVD video has the bejeezus compressed out of it.  File sizes are small.

    When you rendered out of AE, you probably rendered it out as lossless.  File sizes are very large.

    I did export lossless.  What should I change it to?  Is it possible to do it again without spending another 3 hours to render?  It's only a 1 hour video

    Can't tell you -- we have no clue how you're going to use this.... which makes all the difference.

    What is it you have to deliver?  What kind of application will this be used in?
