Looking for any tips on headache reductions in rendering (eventually) to Blu-ray.
I completed a 4-minute project with (Panasonic SD9) AVCHD (.m2ts) video and simple 7MP photos. Crashed/hung on render to DVD (using "make movie"). After reading a lot of very helpful posts on creativecow, I managed to render successfully by:
1. Manually resizing all the 7MP photos to 3.5MP, and
2. Limiting streams to 1 and resizing preview window to 24MB or less.
I'm a converted Ulead MSP user (still pissed of that this system won't work on Vista), and MSP never choked on a 7MP picture on a much weaker system. Do I really have to manually resize each photo? (I know I don't need 7MP for the video quality, though I do use some pans, but my photos are not just for video consumption.)
And is step #2 really necessary, given my system: core i7/2.66Ghz, 6GB DDR3/1066, ATI 4850?
When my LG blu-ray burner arrives, am I likely to find a new set of rendering hurdles to "make movie" in blu-ray?
Many thanks
