  Help Please! Bit Rate Too Low DVDA??

  Posted by Ray Sherman on November 15, 2008 at 1:24 pm

  Hi,
  I cannot make a DVD in DVDA due to the following Error Messages. I am using Sony Vegas Pro 8.0 2 and DVDA 5.0
  !Track 1 ‘Video’ in ‘Menu 1’ Cannot be recompressed because its bit rate is too low.
  !Track 1 ‘Video’ in ‘Road Trip’ Cannot be recompressed because its bit rate is too low.
  (i)The video Road Trip.m2t’ on track 2 ‘Video’ in ‘Road Trip’ will be compressed.
  (i)The audio of Track 1 of ‘Road Trip’ will be compressed.

  The bit rate shows 8,000 in the Optimize Disc window. I am also getting these same messages when trying to make a DVD on “all” of my previous projects in DVDA that had no errors before and burned successfully. Those projects ranged anywhere from ten minutes to sixty minutes in length.
  In the help menu it states the following;

  When the bit rate of a video is too low, it may not play back properly on some players. Recompress with a higher bit rate.

  Select the title in the Optimize Disc dialog and click the Video tab.

  Select the Recompress box, click the button, and choose Yes from the menu.

  Select the Use default bit rate box, click the button, and choose Yes from the menu to recompress using the project’s default bit rate.

  Yes is already checked in the menus, therefore there wasn’t any changes that I could make. So now, I’m at a dead end on what to do to correct these two errors.
  Your expertise in helping me would be most appreciated. Thank you, Ray

  Hi,
  This is in addition to the above post;
  I don’t understand why it’s showing two different files, due to only having one project.
  I just rendered a 30 second event (clip) in Vegas as MainConcept MPEG2 with the Template as DVD Architect NTSC Widescreen Video Stream which I called Test. In DVDA I draged my 30 second Test render from Vegas into the menu window in DVDA then tried to burn. The following is what is showing with that one in DVDA;

  !Track 1 ‘Video’ in ‘Menu 1’ Cannot be recompressed because its bit rate is too low.
  !Track 1 ‘Video’ in ‘Test’ Cannot be recompressed because its bit rate is too low.
  (i)The audeo on track 1 of ‘Test” will be compressed.
