  Quicktime animation > mpeg dvd problems

  Posted by Didier Fereaux on May 28, 2010 at 8:26 am

  Hey guys, ran into a big problem.
  So here’s whats up.
  Over the last 3 days I designed a 3 minute animation made completely in After Effects. It’s made in HD (1920×1080) and I rendered it as a quicktime animation as its uncompressed. Came out around 14gigs size – ouch!.

  Now I want to put this on DVD so I can play on TV’s and loop it, when I put it in Encore, the build button is greyed out and when i try transcode it, it crashes.

  So I thought maybe I’ll just convert the animation file to mpeg dvd in AE (tried premiere and it crashes).
  So I did that and the file is now 160mb (looks pretty crummy quality? is mpeg-dvd the best preset?).
  But when I put it in Encore to burn as a DVD it says: the software that is used to decode this media is not available on this system.
  So I looked that up and ppl say I need to dl codecs, which I did (K-lite full codec pack) and same problem. didnt fix anything. help!
