Activity Forums Adobe Encore DVD Dual layer questions

  • Dual layer questions

    Posted by Julie Meek on June 26, 2006 at 10:12 pm

    First, how can you tell where Encore has created the layer break? And second, how can you tell the size of each layer?

    I’ve searched the Manual, the help files, online, Adobe support… nada. I have a burned disk and have looked at the files, but I don’t see anything that helps me determine the answer to either of these questions. The replicator says to make sure the largest layer does not exceed 95%.

    Thanks for any help!

    Might try these tips from the Adobe Encore knowledge base.
    Looks like you can tell Encore where to put the break.

    Thanks epontius. I will try re-building the project and select the option to manually set the layer break, and see if the following screens will tell me the size of the layers. Fortunately the project consists of 31 timelines as opposed to one long timeline so finding a good place to set the layer break should be easy.

    I know Neil Wilkes has come up with a way to work this out using Gear and IFOEdit, so I suspect Adobe doesn’t provide a way to determine the size of each layer, but I’ll check out doing it that way and hopefully I’m wrong.
