Vegas to Architect – My first try
Well, what am I doing wrong?
I rendered the video and audio separately in Vegas 8.0
I fired up Architect 5.0, added the one video file and clicked Make DVD. The whole computer locks up and I have to do a hard shut down.
Vista 64 bit environment – Help!

Can you give some more detail?
1. What was your original file types that you brought into Vegas?
2. What file format did you render your video to? Audio to?
3. How did you bring the file into DVD Architect 5?
4. Did you add it as a menu object by mistake?
You say you added the video file and then clicked make dvd- did you add the audio? Will it let you?

3. How did you bring the file into DVD Architect 5?

4. Did you add it as a menu object by mistake?
hmmm…I don’t know

I read where the audio file goes with the video file
Thanks!

Do you have a BluRay project set up in DVDA 5 or is it still set for DVD? Go to File/New and on the first drop down box change it from DVD to BluRay.
If you do not want to burn a bluray disc, you will want to use the Mainconcept encode for widescreen DVDA Template in Vegas as opposed to the Bluray template.

You’re right I had not selected Blu-Ray
So this time I right clicked on video and clicked, “Insert Media
Then immediately I clicked Make Blu-Ray Disc and it hangs up
“Program not responding”Jeff

Have you tried any other media? Perhaps try a short clip of standard definition material or do a shorter clip of your HD material just so as to rule out it being workflow or program related.
Also, are you giving it enough time to load in DVDA? There should be a progress bar at the bottom giving you a percentage of the amount of footage that has been loaded. It may take a while. How big/long is your video stream?

My stream is only 5 minutes
I am going through the manual on this. I think I need to render for Blu-Ray 1440 not 1920
It may have to do with how I am adding the file. I keep getting a broken link. How do I avoid to having it be a manu object?

Go to File/New and choose “Single Movie”. Give that a go and see if you get an error. This takes away the menus.
Do try rendering a short section at 1440×1080 and see what effect that has.
If that doesn’t work, let me know and maybe I can remote in to your editing station and see what you are doing if you want. If that is the case, we need a time- I am in the central US. Currently it is 8.30 in the evening.

Thanks J Razz
I was out of the office for awhile and I got to cool off.
I am going to simplify things, starting with a very small stream for standard def dvd.
I will let you know one way or the other

I tried a basic HDV template with 1 minute of video and Single movie selected. Machine locked up the second I hit Make DVD.
Then I thought it might be the burner because I put a new Sony Blu-Ray burner in.
So I did a disc burn from my Sony avchd camcorder and it recognized the drive. I only burned to SD dvd though.
Has anyone successfully used AVCHD files with Sony DVD Architect in a 64 bit Vista environment?
Maybe a should try another burning software that would recognize AVCHD. Windows Movie Maker did not although I thought it was supposed to.
I would like you to do the remote terminal thing tomorrow (Thursday) during the morning if you have time.
Thanks!
