  • I’m losing half my project when encoding to DVD from Premiere

    Posted by Mark Miller on April 25, 2009 at 1:36 am

    I’m using the Adobe Media Encoder to export my sequence using the DVD preset. I only get a 29 minute video file from a 49 minute original. The audio is all there on the MP3 file. If I burn it to DVD using Encore, it works perfect until it hits the mark where the file ends, than I must eject it and restart to get the DVD to work again. Likewise, when I open it in Media Player it initially works fine, once I get to the area where the video file ends, around 29 minutes, if I go back it is distorted and has very blurry, independent horizontal lines go across the image.

    I tried fixing it by outputting to a regular MPEG2. I got a perfectly working MPEG2 that appears great in media player, but when I try to transcode I get the same problem that occurred in the Premiere encode. It is the exact same file length as my bad original premiere encode was.

    I’m out of ideas other than trying to combine two half encodes in encore. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

    Fixed it. I encoded it to a Quicktime and than transcoded that to the MPEG2 DVD preset.
