    Posted by Bluebike on November 2, 2006 at 7:06 pm

    I’ve just finished final changes on a major project and when I tried to burn the DVD it came up with a DVD error 19016. This was followed by errors on the clip ‘PGC (followed by clip name) DVD error -1’. I’ve tried restarting and returning to older versions but it won’t let me burn this project. Nothing wrong with Encore (as far as I can tell) or DVD writer as I can still write out other projects. Have tried re-authoring the project from scratch but still get an error on clips. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

    The exact wording of the error:

    PGC “clip2 name” has an error at 00:00:00:11.
    Unknown error.
    (DVD error – 1)

    The first time it came up with a different clip and after viewing this in the monitor, it seemed fine. The next time it came up with this clip and I’ve tried reimporting it, reexporting it, recompressing it and almost every other option I can think of – it still is stuck on that error.

    Can you build a disc image or a set of DVD Folders?

    Same error comes up when building DVD folders.
    If it helps at all, the error comes up as it says ‘planning video for movie’.
    I’ve used Sorenson Squeeze to compress these clips for DVD – on the same settings I’ve used dozens of times (on this project and others). Could this have anything to do with it?

    Are they muxed or demuxed mpeg files?

    What is muxed/demuxed? (Sorry – I’m not very technical).
    I’ve squeezed the original clips from Quicktime references (audio in a seperate aiff file) in an Avid Xpress to PAL mpegs (video to mpv and audio to mpa files).

    I’ve tried squeezing the clip which the error refers to on a different machine (from a ‘same as source quicktime’) and replaced it in Encore, but now I keep getting the message: “Unknown Error – DVD Error -1” when burning. At least there doesn’t seem to be an error on the clip!

    Have tried restarting Encore as well – no change.
