[Jeff Pulera]

Hi David,

Are you making DVD or Blu-ray?

Thanks

Hi Jeff
I have been making a Blu-ray but also use Encore for DVD. Never had a problem before although CS 5.5 was a bit sluggish. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Jeff and anyone else out there.
As I have had little response I assume that no-one is trying to use Encore to make Blu-ray discs in W10. I have been experimenting with compatibilit settings and after a lot of experimention Windows informed that the program was incompatible with Windows 10. It was fine until Fall Creators update and it seems ridiculous that such a good piece of software has been dumped in this way. I have managed to burn both bluray and DVD but editing bluray is a nightmare as previewing takes minutes (not seconds) to load the relevant timeline and will often not allow me to go back to the menu.

Has anyone tried to get any response from either Microsoft or Adobe? I know it’s discontinued but what a waste!

Hi David,

I do have Encore CS6 installed on my Windows 10 machine and have not had any issues. However, I guess I haven’t made a DVD in a while nor have I made any Blu-ray discs, so maybe there is an issue after Creator’s – I don’t know if that’s even installed on my PC. Sorry I don’t know more.

Thanks

Many thanks Jeff. Since my experiments even DVD editing has become difficult!

I’ve been lucky so far in that all my customers (schools, amateur groups etc) are happy with DVDs which I produce using Encore running under Win 7 (using Parallels on a MacBook Pro).

One day something will break and I’ll be forced to change my workflow so I’d be VERY interested to hear what you choose. Thanks!
