Alright… well, you could always try the good old system restore if this just started happening recently, but the first thing I would do is go to start > run and type msconfig; then go to the start up tab and disable everything but the antivirus, and possibly keyboard and mouse. You should be able to tell what they are by looking at the command column. See if that resolves things, but you are probably just pushing the inevitable clean OS install if indeed you have spyware going around in there.
Of course some programs are smartly written and will try to start up again behind your back…
As for the 16x dvds, you should be able to get a firmware upgrade from Sony. I would look here: (https://esupport.sony.com/perl/select-system.pl?DIRECTOR=DRIVER&ref=http%3A//www.sony.com/index.php
If you are planning on buying a whole pallet of DVDs it might be worth shooting an email at them to be sure 😉

Premiere saves many things, projects files (auto save), media cache, previews, etc. Most of these locations can be changed in the preferences.

Your best option if you do have to do more advanced editing is to find one of those VOB or mpeg2 to uncompressed AVI converters (archives). Stay away from DV in the conversion process. Hopefully that won’t be seen through the lens of a projector.

I have heard of this issue happening with some newer Nvidia drivers, and not just with Premiere.
If you do own an Nvidia card, you could try getting a newer version of the drivers or rolling back to a previous one.

I’m not sure I understand your issue, but if I do, it would be a matter of right clicking on the clip and selecting unlink, so that your audio and video tracks are separated. At this point you’ll have to be careful not to bring your audio our of sync.
You can relink afterwards.

If renaming them didn’t work, (it’s always 50/50 with mpeg2), then you’ll have to split the VOB into video and audio, but your best bet would be converting it to a another format (uncompressed is the key here since since you are going to have to recompress again to put it back on a DVD). That was covered in previous posts, here’s one:

BTW, system restore wouldn’t work for your footage since it usually only restores system files, not deleted documents.
Good luck,

As much as I love Procoder, it’s given me problems in the past, even with DVD authoring software.
Not sure what version of Premiere you have, but I would try encoding to Mpeg2 directly from there, unless you have an issue with Mainconcept.
There could also be issue between the Quicktime (animation?) codec and Procoder as well, that’s being past on the the Procoder export.

Not sure if the temp files were kept in P7 after the program was closed…but they I think were in something like My Documents/Premiere (Been a while so I can’t confirm it).
You could look in your preferences, there should be a setting for the DVD scratch disk, or how about doing a search for “VIDEO_TS” in xp.

You got it right. AE to Encore and AE to Premiere.

Are you by any chance exporting to an external HD ?
