Encore CS3 crashes when building to Flash (Windows)

I've built a project that has no problem burning a DVD or rendering an ISO image. However, when I try to author a Flash version of the project, it spends hours transcoding, then Encore CS3 crashes. (Generic Windows "Encore CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close" error.) The only issue that shows up when checking the project is an orphan timeline, but it is linked into the project through playlists.
Any suggestions on how to create a flash version successfully?
Specs:
AMD Dual Core 4800+ (2.51Ghz)
2 Gigs memory
Windows XP SP3

I'm also having issues with Encore crashing all of the time. Whenever I try to build a flash file it crashes near the end. I have a few large videos in there and can build a flash file without the videos in, but why does it keep crashing when the videos are in.... I thought this is what this software is designed for!
Has anyone had any luck getting around their crashes?
To reduce the size of the videos what setting do you suggest changing?
Thanks and good luck to everyone else using Encore!
Matt.

Encore CS3 crash when i click Build (SWF, BluRay, DVD Burn/Image/Folder) or Check project

So I'm finally done with my DVD. Now i want this burned to a dvd or make an image file. Each time i hit BUILD or START (Check proj) the program quits and I'm left with the normal OS X message: The application Adobe Encore quit unexpectedly >> Ignore - Report... - Relaunch
My DVD is not that fancy but i got a menu with 3 buttons made in PS with a pointer highlight and a animating background made in After Effects (using dynamic link) with some music. All of the buttons link to After effects comps with dynamic link. All of the after effects compositions are transcoded and works within the DVD preview (except the DVD menu background wont play, and i got a feeling it will play when i export an image or DVD). And all the After Effects comps links back 2 the menu when done. So there should be no error in the project flowchart.

So i hit build and Encore quits, shut down, finada (Every time!). No matter what out put settings i use. I've exported DVD's from encore before on this computer without problems.

Don't know if this any help but hope anybody got some ideas. I've been trying to look for a solution on the forums, but without any luck.
By the way, I'm using a Mac Pro v3,1 (early 2008) with 2 x 2,8ghz quads, 10GB memory, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT (512mb) and plenty of disk space.

Hey, i think if there could be any of the possibilities you talk about, it might have been a naming error. All files i created had the same name in the new project as in the old one. But i used 1 asset arrow that i copy pasted from a library button "Red facets button" and shift pasted on my own buttons as highlight (paste sub picture). In the first project i did not do this as a straight forward thing, a lot of deleting and adding because i had never done it before and there might have happened something with the naming of the arrow i pasted. I used the same arrow in the second project but without messing with delete, paste all the time. But some how there is no problems now, just something wrong with the last project file =S
Not so important:
I also noticed while building the new project i once got an "General error", not sure why but happened after a random crash. And 2 get rid of it i had to delete the menu and make it again (i could not edit anything in the menu without getting the error). I rebuild the menu and had another crash when exiting the program, because i thought my computer needs to boot after 2 days online. When i reopened the project i got "General error" in the menu again, but after some clicking it didn't show up (random). Finally i got my project setup and everything works, i did the copy past as sub picture as a straight forward thing.

Encore CS3 crashes when changing disk drives

Burning a compilation from Premiere CS3 to Encore CS3 using Export to Encore. When Premiere finishes encoding and launches Encore to create DVD image, Encore keeps defaulting to my CD-R drive and not my DVD-R drive.
Each time I have to cancel the operation, and then manually change the dropdown recorder selector from the CD to the DVD drive. And EVERY TIME I do this Encore crashes.
Since there doesn't seem to be a way to force Encore to remember which drive I want to use for recording as a default, this software is totally useless to me.
Does anyone know of a way to make Encore remember a specific disc drive to use for recording?

You could try setting the DVD-R drive as Master, not the CD-R.
The bad news is that this means opening up the computer & either resetting the drive jumpers from CS (Cable Select) to Master & Slave, or if they are already set to Master & Slave, then they need reversing.
This cannot be done in software as it is a matter of their physical position on the cable.
To ensure correct pickup, it would be a good idea to go into Control Panel/System/device manager (
i before
opening the system - and uninstall both optical drives (right-click on the drive & select "uninstall".
The next time you boot, thedrives should be detected in their new configuration.

Encore CS3 Crashes when i try to build a iso out of my dvd

Does it take too much resources from my machine? I don't get any error reports from encore. Just windows explorer report that something went wrong. What can I do?

Provide details.
Look here and specifically look at how to pose a question and the details required.

Prepro CS3- crash when export to flash

In Premiere CS3, every time I try to use the Adobe Media Encoder to export to Adobe Flash Video, it crashes as soon as it starts to render; an error message pops up for 1/2 second before the whole program quits:
OMP abort: Initializing libguide.lib, but found libguide40.dll already initialized.
This can cause performance degradation.
Set environment variable KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK=TRUE if you want your program to continue in this case.
Is this the solution? How do I set an environment variable?
Thanks in advance!

Encore CS3 crash while building slideshow

Wanted to post the solution to an Encore crash regarding the slideshow build step.
Scaling down the resolution of 66 tiff images that had made up a slideshow
worked around a problem in Encore. The final step of creating an iso
image had been failing after many minutes of processing the slideshow.
Using images scaled down to 720x480, the native resolution of an SD DVD, resolved the problem.
From CS3 Bridge, selected all the images,
then from the Bridge menu Tools -> Photoshop -> Image Processor ...
selected the 'resize to fit' option
and specified 720 for width and 480 for height and saved the images
to a new directory.
Had to delete the old slideshow timeline and build the new one but
Encore makes that simple enough. Import the images as a timeline,
set the transition, add the music track, set the random pan and zoom,
and linked the new asset to the menu again.
I don't know if another resolution would have been better given the
slight zooming resulting from the random pan and zoom feature but the
results look fine regardless.

Andrew,
Though it sounds too late to help with Encore, there are a couple of things to think about. That 80% Transcoding issue throws up a few possibilities to me:
1.) heat buildup in the CPU - Transcoding is very CPU intensive
2.) power supply not up to the task, or going bad
3.) HDD filling up to a critical point - that slowdown and then hang could be a sign of this, as HDD's loose a good deal of their efficiency near the 75% full point, and will shut down, as 100% is approached.
4.) something in the Project at about that point?
5.) something else entirely
Good luck, and happy authoring, regardless of which program you use.

Encore CS3 crashes when importing Blu-Ray timeline

In Premiere Pro CS3 I ad the chapter markers and then export to Encore. In an hour and a half Encore opens
says it is importing M2V file and crashes.
I tried to import into a new project and it failed also.
Sadly it worked perfectly once.
Any workaround solution to another Adobe bug?

Try going to Support > Updates then select the drop-down for Premiere Pro. There should be a few update patches to download. After that, do the same for Encore. I remember seeing somewhere in the updates that it resolves that problem.

Dreamweaver CS3 crashes when building forms

Not sure whats going on here. I have built numerous sites
containing handfuls of standard forms yet no problems. Now all of a
sudden when I open a particular page it causes DW to crash. Today I
created a new form page which had no problems then I realised I
would need to split the form into two pages as it was too big for
one page.
I cut half the form and pasted it into a new blank template
page then hit save and sure enough that crashed and now will not
open in DW without causing a system crash.
Has anyone seen this before?

Did this happen before Daylight Savings Time ended?

InDesign cs3 crashes when opening CS2 documents

ID cs3 crashes when opening CS2 documents, not when open dialog appears, but after I choose file and it "starts" opening it. (core duo, xp, clean install, all updates)
If i open ID by opening file, it crashes with standard windows dialog, if I open ID first, it does not crash, but rather behaves strangely, nothing is opening, if I move a mouse it turns to sand clock.
Same thing happens on all machines with ID cs3 in my office.
All other apps works fine. I did read every single forum about ID crashing and nothing helps. Files resaved in interchange format opens well. There must be something in the files that ID cs2 did and what id cs3 cannot open :( Any ideas?

1. Is there any reason to use eps? Avoid it use AI, PSD or PDF instead.
2. Are all used fonts ok? What kind of fonts du you use?
3. Which Mac OS X do you use?
Does it crash with alwayst the same files?
What does the file history tell you? Hold down the command key and got to InDesign > About InDesign… Does it tell you somewhat more specific, like missing plugins, severly damaged files and restored files, when (in which version) the files have been created first (helps often to export to IDML and open this again and save it as INDD and work with the new file.), has the problematic file been converted from another application (Quark Xpress or PageMaker), etc.

Encore cs3 crashes

Hi.
I am having issues with adobe encore cs3 crashing. I have created a dvd with no issues. I had recently started another project that had 3 videos and a bunch of slideshows. It seems that anytime i do anything, the program crashes. I do have a lot of photos in this project. While I was working on the project, any importing as an asset, or previewing gave me no issues at all. I have un-installed and re-installed the software, including various susgestions in forums, such as; disabling services.
I am desperate for any help anyone can give me.
thank you for any help!

As I often have mega SlideShows, with maybe 3000+ Still Images, I Scale my Images to exactly what I need. With a great quantity of Stills, an extra handful of pixels can be compounded and can tax resources.
When I need more pixels in my Still, than the Frame Size of the Project, say for a long Pan, I will Scale to what I need, maybe 3000 pixels, but will then Crop the vertical to exactly the Frame Size, say 480. I do not want extra pixels, having to be processed.
On a normal SlideShow Project, I will usually Scale the majority of Stills to exactly what the Project's Frame Size is. If I do need more pixels, in either direction (horizontal for a Pan, or vertical for a Tilt), then I calculate exactly what I need, and Scale (often Cropping the other dimension) to that. I usually end up with one folder with the majority of Still Images Scaled to exactly what I need, maybe two others, where I needed more pixels, but the amount is different. Never had a Project that required more than three Scaled dimensions, though it certainly could happen.
With the advent of PrPro CS5 (now CS 5.5), some things have changed a bit, if one has the proper hardware, in that the Scaling algorithms have been improved (expect to see those trickle down to PS by CS 6), but there is still the resource issue.
I'm about to embark on another mega SlideShow, probably topping out at about 2500 Images. As soon as I get the specs. for the display, I will then begin my Scaling. Right now, I feel that the majority will be exactly to the Frame Size, with but a few needing more pixels, but in one dimension only. I have my PS Actions Saved, but might need to tweak one, or two, depending on what the AV department tells me.
John T's analogy is a good one, and when he's not looking, I might "steal" if from him.
Good luck, and please let us know how it goes,
Hunt

Adobe Bridge CS3 crashes on load in my Windows 7 workstation.

Adobe Bridge CS3 crashes on load in my Windows 7 workstation.
I recently completely removed, deactivated and reinstalled all my Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Master Collection to solve some problems with other application from the suite and now I'm surprise Bridge continues to fail. In my portable workstation the same software (Bridge) uses to work.
I tried launching Bridge under several compatibility modes. All failed.
Is there any know bug I should be aware of? Any fix?
Is this a common problem?

Curt Y. Thank you for your answer.
It was only Bridge who was crashing. It failed to load and Windows was giving an error message.
I tried your suggestion, and resetting all options in the reset window it now loads. It was as simple as that.

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box (similar to those given above) are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Crashes when building previews

LR keeps crashing when I try to rebuild previews. I had an issue before where I didn't see any thumbnails in the "all photographs" view, and to fix that I created a new catalog. I was able to rebuild previews for several external discs, but one disc kept crashing LR. So I installed that disc internally in my Mac Pro. Still kept crashing on build previews. Then I transferred all the files to a brand new hard drive, still inside my Mac. Whenver I rebuild the previews, the scan completes, and then I get the spinning beach ball, and then crash.
I do have a bunch of crash reports if that helps.
I'm running LR 2.7 on a Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.3. 5GB memory. I've repaired disk permissions on startup disk, and ran DiskWarrior on startup disk as well as the discs that house my photos. I've also run Techtool. In the past I've had issues with LR crashing when building Web galleries.
I would really appreciate suggestions--I've been wresting with this for days and it's very frustrating. Thanks!

More trouble: there's a catalog I can't import. I keep getting an "unkown error." And when I start the import, I'm getting strange previews with backwards text (I'm pretty sure it's instructing me to take hallucinogenic drugs) see below.

Adobe Encore CS6 crashes when using dynamic link

I'm trying to use encore for the first time to create a wedding DVD. I'm trying to use the dynamic link feature from premiere pro but whenever I use it (I've tried intiating it from both premiere and encore) it crashes. When starting it from premiere it crashes right away but using it from encore it crashes when I want to create a new timeline from the sequence. Is there a way to stop this from happening? Also I don't really want to have to render the premiere pro file since it's quite large but if I have to I will. Thank you

I filmed it from a HD camera.
I tried to dynamic link a much shorter clip but yet the same thing happened from both programs. I even tried to make a timeline from in Encore with nothing in it and it crashed.
EDIT: I redownloaded premiere pro with encore and it seems to work now. Thank you for all your help though. Much appreciated.
