    Hi,
    I’ve tried to build this DVD about 3-4 times now and it keeps freezing right up at the last part of the video.
    About here…

    I even kept it on for 2 days straight this time around and nothing.

    Is there a way to work around this so I can finally finish this DVD.

    Thank you 🙂

    Hi Nery,

    Are you using Dynamic Link from Premiere? Perhaps try encoding from Premiere, with File > Export > Media and create the “MPEG-2 DVD” content in Adobe Media Encoder.

    Thanks

    I was using Dynamic Link so I tried to export it as media in premiere pro. It did it for a few days (it’s about a 2 hour long wedding video) but this morning I woke up to the export window not being there. I also checked the folder it was meant to be in and the file wasn’t there either.

    Hi Nery,

    Let’s back up a bit and get some info. What is the source video, SD or HD? Project settings? Computer hardware? My 2-year-old Core i7-2600 will render a 2-hour MPEG-2 from SD in 10 minutes, or from HD a little faster than realtime. You say it is rendering for DAYS? Even my older computers never took more than 2-3 hours for SD to DVD.

    Do you have effects on the video? Denoiser plug-ins are notoriously slow, even on the latest systems.

    So let’s figure out the whole workflow and at what point things are going bad for you

    Thanks

    “Elizabeth and Daniel’s wedding. prproj” – i have a feeling the spaces and OR the apostrophe in “Daniel’s” might be giving u all this grief..

    I filmed on a Panasonic HDC-TM700 so it’s HD video I believe. The project settings in encore were pal and DVD. I’m using OS X 10.8.2 with a processor of 2.53 GHz intel core 2 duo. I have effects in the menu and right at the end of the video (just a text type of thing).

    Thanks, Jeff.

    David, I will definitely shorten the name. Thank you for your help also.
