Hi John:

This is amazing. I showed my film yesterday to some people in their home, and the movie had some issues. The cut wasn’t clean, yet in the software, the cut seems clean. What I discovered was when they dropped in a studio movie, the color was great and so was the sound. No changes, like what my film experienced. What do you think could be wrong, or do you think that the copies made for the studio were not compressed? They were copies made from HD. Wait, I just thought of something. Maybe the movie was in film. Your thoughts!

Many thanks,

Debbie

Hi John:

I am using a DL DVD for this project, because the compression shrinks it to 7.65GB when I render directly through Sony. When I rendered through Quicktime, it was even smaller, like 2.65GB.

Many thanks,

Debbie

Hi John and Grazie:

Thank you.

John: I remember in the past selecting the Architect NTSC Widescreen Video Stream, but I didn’t remember that it only had the 720×480 size available. For some reason, I thought it had options to select 1920×1080. I don’t remember typing it in. Is that what you do, or do you leave the size as is? Is the size smaller, so to accommodate the compression that is required to fit on a DVD? I tried another way and adjusted the size, and although my original project is a 21GB, when I rendered it, it still compressed it, but was too sizable for DVD.

Many thanks,

Debbie

Hi Grazie:

It sounded better than I expected. I had some real challenges with the audio because of how it was recorded. The color was really good on Blu ray.

Thank you so much for helping throughout this process.

Happy New Year.

Best,

Debbie

A wonderful Holiday Season wish to you and your family.

Hi Jon:

I am rerendering, and gave it the same file name. It is overwriting the file currently. I’m burning directly to Blu Ray. Not only did I experience flickering.; some of the music was not rendered. I turned off my Internet from my laptop and all automatic updates, as well as sleep mode on my computer to see if that is what caused my issues.

Many thanks,

Debbie

Hi John:

I just checked it and the GPU Acceleration was off. I will turn off my automatic updates, the internet and sleeping mode on my computer. I am testing to see if that is attributed as well.

Many thanks,

Debbie

Hi Mark and Francis:

Thank you so much for responding.

I cannot see anything, but when I click the folder icon above, it opens the explorer for me to see and select files. I can only see the files if I click that folder icon. Nothing shows in Vegas.

Many thanks.

Best,

Debbie
