Blu-ray Disk Space Available Incorrect + Quality Not Optimum:
I recently purchased a Plextor Blu-ray Disk burner that included Cyber-Link Blu-ray Disk Suite, a software bundle that allows me to burn content to Blu-ray Disks. After installing the Plextor Blu-ray burner, I also installed the Cyber-Link software. I then inserted a Blu-ray disk into the Plextor drive and formatted the disk using Instaburn, an application which was installed on my computer when I installed Cyber-Link Blu-ray Disk Suite. At the final stage of the formating process, Instaburn asked me if I would like to complete the formatting despite their disclaimer. Their disclaimer stated that by using Instaburn to format the disk, that other writing software would not be able to write to the disk. I then clicked "OK" and by doing so I accepted that I might have issues burning content to the disk if I choose not to use the Instaburn software.
I then purchased and installed Pinnacle Studio 14 Ultimate and proceeded to make a film. After finishing the editing portion of the film making process I then proceeded to the "Make Movie" tab to burn my movie to Blu-Ray disk, thereby completing the final step of the film making process. After selecting the disk type as Blu-ray, Pinnacle claims that I have zero space available on my Blu-ray disk to burn to, despite the software recognizing the existence and space capability of the disk. Studio 14 Ultimate has confirmed for the me that it recognizes my Blu-ray burner and the size the disk that is currently inserted into the drive because each time I select the "Settings" button the software tells me this. A screen shot illustrates this:

Can anyone please explain why Studio 14 Ultimate is not recognizing the size of Blu-ray disk when I attempt to burn the movie?
Can Studio 14 Ultimate format Blu-ray disks so that I don't have to use the Instaburn software?
Thanks for the help.
