Disappearing video clips in DVD Architect Pro 5. build 119

[Bob Peterson]

My understanding is that a “movie” is one long piece of video. It is not a collection of individual clips. That’s probably where your “limitation” is coming from. If you want a collection of individual clips, you need to pick a different “theme”.

I don’t think DVD Architect is generally relied on for renders. Renders are done in Vegas, generally using the DVD Architect templates, and DVD Architect then organizes and burns the DVD.

A theme is just a menu design — a predefined collection of fonts, graphics, and position settings. One theme doesn\’t have any more limitations on content than another.

I am having I think the same problem.

I work at a small TV station & use DVD architect on a daily basis.

I use Architect to have all of my credits & commercial blocks for a show ready at the dvd player (live shows). On one show & one show only when I burn the DVD it loses the thumbnail (keeps the title) of each clip & each clip has no video. After I burn the disk & reload the project it comes up with a cannot render error on the clips.

I thought maybe my project had become corrupted & started from scratch & it still did it! All the clips are standard ntsc avi files, they span 4 menus with 6 to 9 clips per menu.

Again, I use DVD Architect (& Vegas) on a daily basis & I am only having problems with this one show…

I am currently copying the directory to a flash disk to move it to another computer and see if it is computer specific. BTW, new quad 4 computer running 64 bit Windows 7.

Did you fid a fix?
