Hi,

I did a strange thing…..I completely wiped my system and re-installed Leopard and all my software. After about 5 hours later, I went into Encore and loaded up a dual layer DVD. 5 mins later, the dvd burnt with no issues and I did 10 more copies. I cannot fit the movie into single layer as the Disk Info tab in Encore completley fills up with blue.

Thanks,

Hi,

The project was dynamic linked from premier pro CS4 (Encore CS4 as well by the way). When I originally rendered the project to Encore, I had to cut the project in half due to the single layered DVD. They both burnt without a hitch. It is only recently I have invested in Dual Layer DVD’s and I want the whole wedding film on one DVD and not two. The bit rate was around 7-8 and VBR 2 Pass. I have always used a VBR 2 Pass for quality ever since I started videoing weddings. I have feeling that for some reason, Encore struggles with a ‘layer break’, whatever that is. Its strange how Encore ejects my DVD at exactly the same time …time left : 1min 59sec- then it cancels and ejects.

How do i tick the Test before writing box?

Thanks
