  • HELP- M2V files freeze Encore 1.5

    Posted by Broadcast9 on August 3, 2006 at 8:25 pm

    After 2 hours on the phone with Adobe Expert support- they could not fix my issue.

    I am running Encore 1.5- and it freezes everytime I try to play or move an MPEG asset from the asset list to the timeline. To cut off some suggestions- the video file works fine with Encore 1.5 on another computer and all MPEG’s freeze this one.

    My rig:

    dual core Athlon
    256 Nvidia Geforce 6800 GS
    Windows Media Center 2006
    2 GB Ram

    What has been done so far:

    1. MSCONFIG – stopped all non-essential processes and services
    2. Updated video card
    3. Updated Encore
    4. Tried test AVI- same issue
    5. Checked Codecs- work fine
    6. Tried MPEG on other computers and other players- no issue

    The Adobe folks finally just said they ran out of solutions- that I needed to reinstall Windows – which is not an option.

    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Where was this MPEG-2 created? Have you had success importing other assets from the same source? If so, maybe the MPEG file is somehow bad- try re-exporting the file to MPEG-2. If the problem persists, try exporting the clip as AVI, and see if Encore handles that.
