Adobe Encore CS4, Blu-ray burning issues

Greetings!
I'm trying to get some Blu-ray discs authored for a client and am running into a snag on the last 2 discs that remain. When it gets to actually writing to the BD media, it comes up with an error message (See screenshot).
This is starting to drive me up the wall as I've been fine all along with creating Blu-ray discs up until now, and I'm sure my client is getting anxious.
For what it's worth, I am using Verbatim DataLifePlus media, 25gb. As far as what I'm bringing into Encore (which I have been doing this method many times in the past with no snags whatsoever and getting great results), I'm using the Blu-ray M2V export option. There are no issues during the transcoding phase, it's just when it finally gets to actually writing to the media. I have created ISO's of the Blu-rays I'm trying to finish (Making the ISO files come out fine) and running into a snag using other software capable of burning disc images. With this said, what could be going on? Could my optical drive be kicking the bucket?
Also to point out, where it's telling me that there's not enough space, there is some remaining space.
An interesting thing to note as well, my write speed dropdown is grayed out (The media I'm using recommends 6X buring speed).
Any feedback would be hugely appreciated as I'm trying to get this job wrapped up.

If Ann's comment doesn't fix the issue for you, the most common workaround for this is to build to a folder and burn with ImgBurn (for PC) or toast (for Mac).
So what were the issues you ran into when you tried that.
I am sure you have searched this error, and you can see that there has been success in many situations. I do not believe that it is one problem.
I have generally believed that Ann is correct and that it refers to temporary storage on the hard drive. And users underestimate the amount of temporary hard disk drive space used.
Some users experience this error when they are creating dual layer BD disks, and a layer is more than 25G. Each video/layer must fit on one side.
And some users got resolution by reencoding to a lower bitrate (a 25G BD disk does not hold 25G). Encore uses padding to predict the size on disk (e.g. add 10% to the amount of space it predicts that build will use), and it can be wrong.
Always good to "run as administrator, though I don't know that ever fixed this issue if someone wasn't.

Has anyone encountered this: Encore CS4 Blu-ray Error: "Fatal Error", Code: "0", Note:''
Any ideas on what it means or how to fix it?
Burning to a BD-R. Tried two different Blu-ray burners. Created a Blu-ray Image first.

Windows 8 Encore CS4 Blu-ray BSOD

I'm getting a BSOD in Encore CS4 when I try to build a blu-ray project. I have an HP laptop with an LG USB blu-ray burner. When I click build, even to build just an image, and then change from "DVD" to "Blu-Ray", there is a hang then a BSOD. My crashdump indicates that pxhlpa64.sys is the culprit.
This seems to be relevant, BUT the solution is to upgrade CS6 to new patch:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4672190
I'm up-to-date in CS4, so that doesn't help. However, it sounds related and I'm hoping that my copy of CS4 Production Premium is still supported.
My version of pxhlpa64.sys is 3.0.78.0. WU can't find any updates as far as I can tell. I have not installed any drivers for my LG BE12LU38 Super Multi Blue, but it seems to be recognized and there are no updates via WU.

Right click the program icon and select Run as Administrator, which is NOT the same thing as running the computer with the Administrator account, and which fixes several "odd" problems... To create a two layer DVD (or a BluRay?), you MUST have Encore set to use the Run as Administrator option
Run as Administrator http://forums.adobe.com/thread/969395
Also, for CS4, right click the program icon and see if Win8 has the same WinXP compatibility mode that is available in Win7
As far as support outside of this user to user group... I seriously doubt that Adobe will provide any help for a program that is 3 versions old, and which was written before Win8 was more than a Microsoft dream

FCP 7 "Share to blu-ray" burn issue.

This may not actually be a FCP issue, but possibly some of you here are experienced in the matter.
Firstly, my video is 1080/24p ProRes.
This is my first jump into Blu-ray, and I'm quickly learning the many work-arounds, but have run in to a problem.
Initially I tried exporting a QuickTime with "current settings", and dropping it in toast and encoding/burning.
Video looked pretty good, but it was choppy. Google tells me this seems to be a common issue with toast and 24p.
Most suggest encoding with Compressor and then burning with Toast.
Tried that, but I couldn't get it to just encode the files and that be all. It kept asking for a blu-ray disc and ejecting the drive, as if Compressor was going to burn it?
When I would choose "cancel burn", my only option, the whole batch would fail. After all that encoding time...
Wasn't too depressed, because after digging more, Google also told me that many believe the h264 encode using the "share" function in FCP produces better results. Though the options are non-existent, it did great. My only complaint is you are forced to convert audio to .ac3. Well that *****.
So I went ahead and exported all the audio from IN and OUT markers as .aiff.
This is where my problem arrives..
I threw the h264 and aiff in Toast, chose "never re-encode", and it burnt fine.
Video looks great, no stuttering. But the AUDIO! It slows drifts out of sync...
Video is an hour long, and at about 20 minutes in, it's 1-2 seconds behind, and goes from there.
Why would that be?
Any experience with this?
I checked, and the ac3 that FCP made, and the aiff are the EXACT same length.
Any thoughts? Or any other work-around for keeping audio lossless?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, Johnny.
I wasn't saying AC3 s*u*c*k*s. And really.. Why is that word censored? I didn't do that.
I was saying it ***** that you ONLY have the option of AC3 with the "Share to blu-ray" feature.
And yea, I'm sure I would never know the differene, and especially not my grandparents with their home movies.
But it just seems d*u*m*b (can I say that?) to be going through all this trouble for a "lossless" lineage, ie. HD camera, FCP, Blu-ray burner/player, and have to compress the audio. Isn't that one of the main advantages of blu-ray?! Quality? Wether we can detect it or not?! Ha!. Okay..
I thought an easy workaround would be to export the audio to AIFF and drop it in.
No idea why it's drifting....but yes, in the end i may settle.
Though I'll feel cheated! Guess that's what I get for loving BOTH Apple and Blu-ray....
If anyone has other processes of getting good 24p to Blu-ray, please share!
Thanks again.

Encore CS4: Blu-ray brennen in 1080p

Hallo zusammen,
weiß jemand welchen Encoder ich laden muss, um in Encore CS4 eine Blu-ray in 1080p zu erstellen?
Standardmäßig ist nur eine Blu-ray in 1080i möglich.
Danke für mögliche Antworten.
Gruß leznem

Hallo Mylenium,
vielen Dank für die Antwort. Die 24p funktionieren aber nur im NTSC und nicht im PAL-Format.
Heute hat Panasonic eine neue Camcordergeneration mit 1080p50 vorgestellt. Ist bekannt, ob Adobe dieses Format unterstützen wird?
Vielen Dank für die Antworten!

Encore CS4 Blu-Ray not completely compatible?

So I recently burned a BluRay with Encore CS4. The disc plays fine on a Playstation 3, it plays fine using ArcSoft Total Media Theatre on the PC. However, on another computer using Cyberlink's Power DVD software, the disc just plays to a black screen and won't do anything else. On a Samsung BluRay player, the menu comes up, but none of the buttons are usable, and the player is up to date on firmware.
Now, this is a "simple" disc just having the one menu with a video background, and the buttons that link to video clips. Nothing fancy.
I understand that BluRay players might need firmware updates (and the aforementioned Samsung, while indicating no updates available might still have a firmware issue), but I figured since I wasn't using any of the BluRay advanced features, that wouldn't be an issue. But then I realized that whether I use the options or not, Encore may well be indicating the disc requires a certain revision of the BluRay spec to play, whether or not the features of that revision are used.
That lead me to wondering, what revision of the BluRay spec does Encore claim is required, and can you change that on a per-disc basis? As in, change a setting for my project to indicate BluRay 1.5 is needed rather than 2.0 or something? It still might not solve some of the issues, as again we're dependent on what the firmware/software does, but I imagine in some circumstances it could help compatibility.
K.

But, what I'm describing isn't a problem with the media. The players acknowledge this is a BDMV disc, but fail to play it properly. The Cyberlink software shows a black screen, but shows that the menu is currently playing. For the Samsung set top box, the menu is shown, but doesn't function properly.

Encore CS4 Blu-ray Asset shows 00:01:00 upon Import?

Hello,
I was wondering if anybody elase has seen this. I make my mpeg-2 Blu-rays in Edius (CBR because Encore will not accept VBR without transcoding) and make the BD n Encore.
Every so often when I import a file it shows up as only one mintute in length even though Encore will show the correct file size and "don't transcode"
Any ideas?
Also, why does importing and exporting (to folders) take so long when I am dealing with assets that do not need to be transcoded?
Thanks

Yes, 720p60 progressive.
This only happens about every fifth file I bring in. So a lot work, only some do not. But they work after I delete the 00:01:00 file and re-import it.
Am I getting over a filesize threshold? This last file was 21GB and I can remember another being this large as well.

Blu Ray burner issues with Toast

I am trying to hook up a Pioneer BDR-206 to my iMac so I can burn HD movies to Blu Ray. I'm new to Mac so pretty much everything I do is a learning process. I used iMovie to edit the AVCHD files and then exported them. I am using Toast 11 Titanium to burn the movies. Toast seems to encode the movies just fine. But when it starts to burn them I get a hardware error and Toast crashes. I have tried changing the burn speed and made sure the buffer underrun was checked. It crashes at different intervals. I even was able to get one of the Toast discs to completely finish but then the disc wouldn't play in my Blu Ray player. The menu showed up but the videos wouldn't load. I have tried all of Toasts support suggestions but none of it works. I'm hoping someone out there knows more than the tecs at Toast. Otherwise, I'm toast. I've wasted about $25.00 in blank Blu Ray discs already. The error code i get is:
The drive reported an error: Sense Key=Hardware error Sense Code= 0x08, 0x01 Logical Unit Communication Time out
I forgot to mention that I am using the BDR-206 in an enclosure with USB2 connection to iMac. The iMac is new with the iCore5 processor.

Hi, welcome to the forums & Macdom!
Sorry, no Blu-ray hear, all I can suggest at this point is Lion Cache Cleaner..

Will Adobe Encore CS4 burn MTS files to an external blue ray burner if I buy one?

Will Adobe Encore CS4 recognize/burn MTS files to an EXTERNAL blue ray burner if I buy one?

Internal vs external should not matter.
I have a burned to external with CS4, but it was a long time ago.
And most importantly, Encore is not a reliable burner for many users, and they, and I, use imgBurn rather than Encore to burn.
Also, "burn an MTS" file is totally different from authoring and burning. Encore (was it by CS4?) added a limited AVCHD passthrough option. I have not used it.

Encore CS4 refuses to see Blu-ray burner

Using Encore CS4, I had previously been able to burn HD video using my LG Blu-ray burner. Recently though i have been unable to build my projects and bun to Blu-ray. I get a "None Found" from the Recorder selection of the Build Project window even though the burner does display as an option when I select DVD as the recording format. I believe that one of two possibliites exist: 1. Some other software driver has broken my blu-ray driver and Encore can no longer see it, or 2. Some other software has captured the blu-ray burner device and Encore can no longer use it. I have already removed "Nero" because i have herad that it can cause Encore grief. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

CS4 Blu-ray subtitles not displayed correctly

Hi all,
I have been trying to find anything regarding my issue with Blu-ray subtitles using Google and the search function on this forum, but I could not find anything about it.
I have a CS4 Blu-ray project with one main timeline and a few other timelines (to be "extras" on the Blu-ray). On the main timeline I imported two subtitle tracks from a Text file and chose the default import settings in Encore. The first subtitle track is English and the second subtitle track is Dutch, but it also happens when I just import one subtitle track.
The other timelines (for the extras) do not contain any subtitle track (as they do not require it), but the issue also appears when I only added the main time line (as first play) without any menus etc.
The issue is that at first the subtitles seem to display correctly when a Blu-ray burnt from this project is played on a standalone Blu-ray player (Panasonic DMP-BD30 with latest firmware). However, when I skip to another chapter (using the remote's "Next" or "Previous" button), or fast forward or rewind the video on the player the subtitles are gone and will never return. Also when the main timeline is played without any skipping or fast forwarding etc. the subtitles suddenly disappeared and reappeared after some time.
When checking the imported subtitles in the Encore project's time line display, all subtitles are in place.
Additionally, the Blu-ray player's "Subtitle" button does not bring up a selection of available subtitles (which it does on other commercially available Blu-rays), while the timelines allowed actions are set to "All" (the default).
I have also checked the Encore project's "Sources" folder and found .png images for all of the subtitle texts I imported, so it seems that all subtitles are available.
Does anyone have seen this issue before and know how to solve it?
Note: it might be of interest that the main timeline is a single H.264 encoded video file of approx. 7Gb playing for approx 45 minutes. The format is 1080/50i (PAL HDV in the resolution 1440x1080).

The short answer is that you can't use a subtitle menu successfully until Adobe does an Encore update which was working in a special build that I saw at NAB but never made it info a formal release.
The problem is that the generated Blu-ray instructions for selecting the subtitle (and audio) tracks is just plain wrong. The way it was supposed to work is that a GPR (general purpose register) was supposed to retain the selected value, but among other things the code always immediately clears the register after saving the correct value.
There was a similar but different problem in CS4 and we devised a solution with our BluStreak Premaster application, by post-processing the Encore build folder prior to burning or replication.
http://blustreak.dvdafteredit.com/
However to fix the CS5 code would require re-multiplexing of the menus, at which point we gave up, since we don't have a Blu-ray multiplexer. Don't consider going back to CS4, however, since in most other respects the CS5 navigation is far superior.
So your best bet is to ping on Adobe and ask them, when are you going to release this fix?
With these bugs, the only way to properly set audio and subtitle tracks is with the remote functions themselves, or by using set stream and link directly to the main video from a normal menu.

Blu-ray burning

I want to burn my HDV 50i movie from Premiere Pro CS4 to Blu-ray disc. I click File > Output > Media, then select HDV etc, MPEG2 Blu-ray, start queue and it does the encoding. When it's finished it doesn't ask me to insert a disc, or where to burn it to, or anything. It just sits there doing nothing. If I look in My Documents\Adobe\PremierePro\4.0 I can find the movie, but if I drag and drop it to the Blu-ray, it says "Some files could not be added because the formats are not supported or the files could not be found." What is wrong? My Blu-ray burner is LG GGW-H20L, my HD is 500GB, 3GB RAM, Intel 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz

Do you HAVE to use Encore or not to burn Blu-ray? Some say you do, some say you don't.
I looked at the video "Exporting your project" and everything works fine up to the point where the film is fully rendered in Adobe Media Encoder, except she says it goes into a folder called Exercise Files\Assets - it doesn't - it goes into 4.0 Then she says you can export it to wherever you want but she doesn't tell you how.
The only way I can find the rendered movie is to click File > Export > Media again and click Output Name which brings up the Save As window where the movie is listed, then R click on it and send it to Instant Burn CD, but then it either does nothing, or it says "D:\ is not accessible. Incorrect function", or it says "Windows cannot read from this disc, or you could be using a format that is not compatible with windows."
Then I read the tutorial called "Authoring and burning Blu-ray discs." I did all the right things in Encore, Clicked OK, and it briefly flashed up a window saying it was importing the project or something, then that vanished, and nothing else happened. So nothing works!
Am I very stupid, or is my system totaly crap?

Premiere Elements 11 no longer recognizes my external blu-ray burner.

I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today, but for some reason Premiere Elements 11 is not recognizing it. Windows 7 sees it just fine. Premiere Elements 8 (which is still loaded on the same computer) also does not recognize it.
What do I need to do? Samsung's website is no help, but I have a feeling it's an Adobe issue since Windows 7 still recognizes the drive.

rbcourter
When is your Blu-ray burner not recognized
Premiere Elements 11: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, burn to AVCHD on DVD disc, or all?
Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, or both?
and when you wrote:
I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today
Did "....many times before today" imply that you could use the burner for Premiere Elements 11 and 8.0/8.0.1 before. I am trying to get a whether this is a "it worked before but now" or a "it never worked before" type issue.
Do you have the USB 2.0 cable connected to a USB 2.0 computer port directly or via a USB multi port hub? I take it that this burner does not have AC support? If you are using only 1 USB 2.0 port, can you set up the burner for 2 USB 2.0 ports?
Does the computer involved have an internal burner? Or is this the only burner that you have available to you external or internal for the computer?
Let us start here and then decide what avenues of further troubleshooting are available to us.
Thanks.

JVC Everio HD and PRE9 - Optimal Settings to Blu-ray burn

I have a new GZ-HM550 (AVCHD 1920x1080/60i and have really been struggling with finding an NLE that I like. I have plenty of computer (Dell Vostro, quad core, 4GB RAM, XP Pro, blu-ray burner) that I use for my photography business. I've tried Pinnacle Studio (sucks - poor output), and now PRE9 and I'm not confident I'm doing it right because I can't get blu-rays to author properly - just won't play on the deck. The only program I've found that works is the one that shipped with the JVC, and it's very limited in creativity.
I Adobe Creative Suite CS4 on the machine, but didn't think to buy CS4 Premiere when I bought everything else. CS5 Premiere would work, but only supports 64bit op systems and for now I need to stick with XP for other reasons - so I'm looking for a NLE that will work with these very large .mts files I was hoping that PRE9 would be it, but so far I don't think so, everything seems to take forever, and it looks like it's transcoding when it burns to Blu-Ray - which I wouldn't think it should need to.
Any guidance or advice on how to set up project and share options to get high quality output with this combination? Desired projects will be wedding and event videos with relatively simple transitions and menu's but in highest possible quality to blu-ray disc

Welcome to the forum.
There are only two formats allowed on BD, HD MPEG-2, and BD-compliant H.264. Though the AVCHD is a sub-set of H.264, it is not quite the same as the BD-compliant H.264, so one will need to Transcode for BD authoring.
One thing that I am not sure of (don't have PrE 9, so I cannot check), is whether PrE offers a choice of BD format. Others will be able to tell you though.
Also, just as with DVD, I strongly recommend using the best quality blank media, when doing BD. The quality and playability will be much higher. Verbatim is about as good as it gets. Memorex is about as bad as it gets. Store brands, and many others, are nearly as bad as Memorex. What brand of blank media have you been testing on?
Good luck,

Save to external blue ray burner

Is it possible to burn photos edited in iPhoto to a high definition Blue Ray burner?

Internal vs external should not matter.
I have a burned to external with CS4, but it was a long time ago.
And most importantly, Encore is not a reliable burner for many users, and they, and I, use imgBurn rather than Encore to burn.
Also, "burn an MTS" file is totally different from authoring and burning. Encore (was it by CS4?) added a limited AVCHD passthrough option. I have not used it.
