DVD Architect Pro Crash
Rendering 1.5 hour BluRay project. Stopped rendering @ 29%. It was precipitated because I tried to got online and I got a window saying not enough memory to run Firefox. Then computer crashed.
Second time around I set ever folder I could locate within DVD Architect to be stored on the external hard drive thinking this project has been choking the 40gig internal drive somehow. Render stopped at the same point.
Is there some temp folder I’m missing?

It sounds like you are running out of system memory not disc space. How much memory do you have? Close all unnecessary applications including antivirus, etc. to free up memory.

Thanks for the response.
I’m only running DVD Architect Pro during render as to free up all available cpu power.Here are my PC specs:
HP Workstation xw8000
Xeon CPU 2.8GHz
2 GB RAMSeems to be within the system requirements posted by Sony.
Would getting 2 more gigs of RAM help? -
I’m not sure if more memory would help. 2GB should be fine. Try rendering a Blu-ray compliant file in Vegas and just use it in DVD Architect. Maybe you’ll have more luck rendering with Vegas.

I don’t edit in Vegas. I’m bringing in a .mov file from Final Cut.
I’ve done it before successfully with my MacBook Pro, but now I’m trying to replicate that success on a PC. -

I’m not sure exactly what that means. Are you saying that you have successfully done this on a MacBook Pro running Windows XP and DVD Architect? Or were you using Mac OS software?

Yes I made one BD before using Parallels, Windows XP, DVD Architect on my 2,5GHz MacBook Pro. This time around I’m using an HP Workstation xw8000 to author the BD, bringing in the media (created & exported in FCP) via eternal hard drive. It’s been an adventure being that I’ve been exclusively Mac for some time now.
Since my last post I’ve started another render, this time I switched a logo movie file from m2v format to ProRes which conforms to the format of the rest of the disk media. Once again I double checked to make sure that all the files creators I found in Preferences put their data on the external hard drive as to not fill up the startup drive.
