Activity Forums Adobe Encore DVD limit of 100 chapter markers

  • limit of 100 chapter markers

    Posted by Thomas Fink on February 28, 2011 at 1:57 am

    I have send more then 100 Encore chapter markers via Premiere link to Encore.
    Unfortunately encore can handle only 100 (0-99) markers.
    I have splitted them into two timelines but when I want to create a chapter index only the menus for the first timeline were generated.
    How can I handle more then 100 markers?
    Is it possible to generated chapter index menus with two timelines automatically or do I have to generate to sets of menus and connecte them manually?

    Answering a portion of your question, the DVD standard is limited to 99 chapters and 99 titles.

    As for your other question, I don’t use Encore enough to say, still learning the program myself.

    Maybe I should be more specific I want to make a Blu-ray not Video DVD.

    Hi Thomas,

    Adobe Encore has not made any distinction between DVD and Blu-ray when it comes to spec limitations, so everything in Encore is “pinned” to the DVD limitations. And they have also done a poor job of implementing them, many things that work in Encore for DVD do not work for Blu-ray.

    Thanks for the info. But is it possible to generate a chapter index menus automatically across two timelines? Or do I have to make two sets of menus for each timeline and connect them manually?

    hey thomas,
    DVD- and BD-authoring is all handworks, so it´s up to you to do the job. if you go a more professional spec-level authoring-way you become more and more a real programmer.

    cheers
