I started preparing my dvd yesterday at 8:45PM. When I came back at 3:50PM Today, It is still rendering. While i was typing this, the total amount it took is 18:25:00.
my disc space (not my harddrive if you guys are thinking) that I was using for my dvd was 4.5GB. almost a lot isn't it?
now, can anybody tell me why it took this much to finally finish preparing my dvd?
Something strange. My Blu-ray discs only take a few minutes.
What files are you feeding to DVDA? Post Media Info. Instructions here https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/faq-how-to-post-mediainfo-and-vegas-pro-file-properties--104561/

its all because of rendering i forgot.
anyway, to respond to your question, the video i am sending it to DVD is originally 10gb. i optimized the file to fit on my disc. my disc is DVD-RW
Are you using Vegas as your video editor? Best to render to a compliant file using your video editor then use the compliant file in DVDA. Your editor will probably do a much quicker job of rendering your file than DVDA. That's because DVDA is an old 32 bit programme and not able to make use of RAM and GPU like your editor probably does.

no. i use davinci resolve for editing because im not spending 199 dollars.
Well render from Resolve with files that are compliant with the worldwide DVD specifications so DVDA doesn't have to struggle with recompressing them.
What are your files? Please post media specs. There's a link in my earlier post.
The problem is that the Resolve render templates do not include any of the formats that are compatible with DVDA (i.e MPEG for DVD or AVC / MPEG-2 for BD) - not as far as I can see in Resolve Studio 19 anyway.
It looks like that it may be possible to transcode the Resolve render to either MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 using the free Shutter Encoder transcoder though I've not actually done that.so I can't confirm that the transcoded media will be compliant with DVDA.
With your Resolve renders, an important question is: Which export format are you using in Resolve?
@bulkmoerls Playing with Shutter Encoder it appears that whilst it will rewrap to a "mpg" file there's no way of changing the video stream to mpeg-2.
Until you provide us with Media Info we don't know what's in your Resolve rendered files to test further.
One solution to your problem might be to try a free consumer level editor or file converter, of which there's several out there on the internet, to convert your Resolve render to mpeg-2.
Or you could just accept that DVDA recompressions are going to be slow. I get the impression that you are trying to squeeze a video of several hours onto your disk?

i used ffmpeg to convert it to an mpg i forgot to say that
edit: i forgot to respond to you long ago. my dvd had finished after 2 days. oh, and also, my video is 3 hours long
