DVD Authoring

Posted by James Strecker on July 23, 2014 at 10:31 pm

Hi, I apologize if there is a better place to post this, but it’s a multi-subject concern.

I am using Windows 8 on my work computer and need to burn a DVD. Not a data DVD, but one that would work in a DVD player. On Windows 7, this was simple. Open DVD Maker, follow the steps, done. Now there is no DVD Maker (or even Movie Maker, for that matter) on Windows 8.

Now, I don’t really ever use either, but DVD Maker was a handy, quick tool. I use the Adobe Creative Suite at work. Premiere, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. But apparently Encore is gone now, too. I just need to burn some DVDs! Haha.

Can anyone help with this? I can ask the company to buy DVD writing software, but that just seems so silly! Why is there not just a built-in app like there used to be? Yeesh.

Any direction would be great. I am at a loss here.

Thanks,

Oh, I posted this in the Premiere forum because I read somewhere there is a way to burn a DVD straight from Premiere, but I can’t find it. The article I read was dated 2013, so it may be different now.

Adobe CC does not include Encore, but you are entitled to download the CS 6 version of Encore. In order to do that, you have to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 (its all one package). Its fine to have both CS 6 apps alongside CC apps, so no worries about conflicts. This is all done with the Creative Cloud App

I think AppGeeker DVD Creator should work for you.There are some of detailed articles showing you how to do that.It’s worthy a looking.

You cannot burn to dvd straight from Premiere. You will always need Encore to make a DVD.
Encore CS6 is still available if you are on the cloud.

I was told by Adobe today, that Adobe no longer supports Encore at all. I have a major problem. I just updated to Windows 10 (no comments please), as a result, Encore no longer imports QT/MOV files, saying that there is no codec installed. This project was created the day before. In fact the QT file I imported yesterday still plays fine, but I can’t import additional ones.

Hi Raymond,

From Premiere, export using the “MPEG-2 DVD” format, and a preset appropriate to the material, and then Import the resulting .m2v and .wav files into Encore. The video will be DVD-compliant and will not need to transcode in Encore.

Thanks

Hi Jeff,

Thanks, that is the way I normally work.

It was just that I had a finished file from someone else as a mov. It worked ok before windows ten, but not afterwards.

I did bring it in via premiere in the end.

Cheers, Raymond

Hi- I use premier pro. I had a lot of problem Burning a DVD. Then I found the solution.
when export, to media choose H.264 then Preset custom or HD1080p25 and encode in adobe media encoder. Now you need a separate DVD authoring program me. I use windows 7, got rid of windows 8.
I use DVD Styler, simply add the file and create the DVD . It only accepts DVD-R. Very easy. Hope this will will help some one.
