dvd architect 1 problems…will upgrade soon
I have been fortunate enough to be able to used DA 1 up until now. I know that there are burning problems with large files. I seemed to have experienced that this time. I have a sony pcg-frv 37 laptop that i usually use for editing with vegas. I have two wd external hard drives attached to it. This project used 90% of the dvd so it was a pretty large file, and it has places where the scenes freeze for about 5 to 10 seconds. I am going to upgrade to the latest DA, but I was also wondering if having two external hard drives would cause problems in rendering a project this size(because it had files stored on both drives). Just curious…any suggestions because i am in the troubleshooting stage now…thanks…

I still use DA 1, and burn very full discs almost all the time. I rarely ever have freeze problems. I think blank media, burn speed and other factors are more a cuase for freezes. I use high quality blanks, never put paper labels on discs (I print directly on the printable surface), and never burn faster than 4x. I have a 7-tray DVD duplicator. I take the manufacturers advice, and burn my master at 1x in Architect and then load that into the duplicator’s hard drive. Almost all my projects are 95-100% full discs and I virtually never have bad ones. I think DA 1 is okay is this respect, from my experience.
