DVD Burn Prob.

MickeyO wrote on 8/2/2005, 12:04 PM

After rendering a 30 min project in Sony Vegas Movie Studio 4.0
I click on the screen to send project to DVD Architect Studio to burn DVD. In DVD Architect I build a Main Menu then: . .
"Make DVD". . "Prepare DVD and Burn". .etc. .
It burns about 25% then speeds to the end all in a little over 2min for a 30min project.
I end up with only the Main Menu on the DVD

I know I'm doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what. Can anyone help please.

Might have something to do with your source files. Are they DV-AVIs or some other files -- particularly MPEGs?

Might have something to do with your hard drive space. How much free space is on your drive?

Might be an incompatible DVD burner driver.

thanks for the feedback.

Rendering creates two files; .mpg and .wav, should the mpg be AVI and if so how do I change the output format.

I've got 90Gb free and I've successsfully created 3 projects and no problem with DVD burner comatability. The PC's a stock HP Pavilion a820n.

Hi,

You might try telling DVD Archtect to "Prepare DVD" rather than "Prepare and Burn", and then use other software for the actual burning process. I use Roxio; others here use Nero. If your DVD burner came with burning software, you can use that. Just burn the files in the folder you selected in the "Prepare DVD" process.
