Burn DVD ‘grayed out’ Vegas Pro 11
New thread request from Jeff Schroeder:
Good news and bad news! The bad news is I searched for 3 hours in DVDA and my PC’s settings and could not find anything that allowed me to change my burner settings. I didn’t want to ask right away before trying to find it (since I’ve been such a pest), so if you could at least tell where it’s located that would be awesome! Thx!
The good news is that I made a test burn when I first installed vegas pro 11. It was a 2 minute short that I renderd and burned just to make sure all was in order before starting a 2hr+ project. Well, guess what? I can’t burn it now. Then I realized that 10 months ago my power supply failed and when I replaced it i had to move my disc burner to the lower tray (my son helped me) cause it was a little larger. I am thinking that my burner isn’t connected right and thus the grayed out inability to burn. So Weds we are going to perform open drive surgery and check those connections.
To be continued…

Eureka!! Two Victories!
My disc drive was not connected right but is now, and per Jeff Schroeder’s advice regarding rendering to avoid freezing at 84% I have successfully rendered and burned a short project on vegas Pro 11/DVD Architect 5!
Thanks Jeff! And thanks Steve too. I’m off to see if I can re-render all 3 discs worth of my main feature (plus menus) and use your method to conquer and burn the Vegas blues away.
I’ll let you know how it works out!

Thanks to Jeff Schroeder and Steve Mann! Burn successful!
For all the whiners you must deal with day in and day out, please let me express a heartfelt graditude to the service you offer here. You walked me thru the trenches of Vegas Pro 11 to make my deadline and I’ll never forget that. You’ve also opened a whole new thought process as to the many ways one can skin a cat.
I know Vegas pro 11 is going to present more challenges to many people, but for what I do I feel I can navigate forward with hope!
Many Thanks!
