Blu-Ray build results in a non-readable / corrupt iso-image

Hello
I have been working on a project that was created with PP CS5.5 using Windows 7 x64. The PP project has various footages in 1080p, mostly from Panasonic HDC-SD900 with 1080p 50p AVCHD material. There are some clips that were shot with Canon EOS 7D, and a crappy helmet camera. All the sequences were exported using H.264 Blu-Ray that results in m4v & wav files.
Everything works fine in Encore, even when previewing and checking the project, but when I build it to an image and mount it, windows can't read the image. It says it's ureadable / corrupt. I've tried to mount the image with three other computers, using Virtual Clone Drive and Daemon Tools.
Before I started to work on this project, I created a small test-image with Encore that had a few seconds worth of material from the SD900 just to see how blu-ray image building works, and it worked fine.
I've tried to change the BR-R size to 50GB in Encore, but I get same results. This was the only thing that came to mind, because the project output size was very close to 25GB.
I tried googling and searching this forum, but to no avail...
Please help.

Says here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890691?tstart=0 that single layer BluRay is actually 22.5Gig
Since you CAN create a folder, I **think** that Imgburn will create an ISO from a folder

  • Blu-ray build: no video (solid red, green, etc image)

    Hey everyone,
    If this problem has already been addressed, could someone please point me in the right direction? I searched and didn't find anything similar, but wasn't too sure what to search for.
    My problem: Everytime I build a blu-ray project in Encore, I am getting the same result; the video will play (according to the progress bar on the player), but the image is always a solid color, sometimes it's red, green, tan, black, apparently just random, but always the same color throughout the entire video.
    I have tried so many different things at this point, I'm at a loss for how to proceed further. I've tried this with at least three different projects, all of which were created in Premiere. I have attempted both the dynamic link from Premiere to Encore and exporting the video first and importing into Encore later. I have tried transcoding as .264 and MPEG2 (I am not very knowledgeable about the settings, so I use the defaults). I have tried building the project in Encore as a blu-ray folder and as an ISO. I have burned to discs and played just the digital files on my PC.
    The video always plays fine up until after it is exported from Encore (that is, it previews fine in Premiere, exported video from Premiere plays fine in players like VLC, and the video previews fine in Encore).And I have no trouble building DVDs in Encore with the same video, timeline, and all that jazz.
    The only thing I haven't done yet is gone to the trouble of trying to reinstall Encore, which will be my next step if noone here has any suggestions. I am running CS6 with all recent updates. I have been testing the blu-ray playback in PowerDVD and a PS3.
    Like I mentioned above, I'm not very proficient in video. If I left out important details, just let me know. Thanks in advance for any help!
    Matt

    When I play the m2ts file, it works fine in VLC and also in PowerDVD. That's interesting, but I'm not sure what that means?
    If the actual m2ts file from the Encore build does not show the problem, but what I assume is the same file on disk (or in iso) shows the problem, what could cause such a problem? (I don't know.) The more frequent oddity is a problem on burned disk and not on iso or folder, which points to the burner, burn speed, or media. But that does not appear to be the issue here.
    I can't find the example at the moment, but try creating a tiny bluray project and see if the problem occurs. If so, you can upload it for me to take a look.
    For example, one menu with one button, linked to a 30 second timeline, using a sample of your material that is causing the problem. If that shows the problem, I would also try a bars and tones sample to eliminat your actual video - although I assume your video is part of the equation.

  • External hard drive and blu-ray build-in player

    Hi staffs,
    This is fifth times that I contact you via apple support, I hope you guys won't be annoying with my problem ask.
    Anyway, this time there are three questions that would like to ask and some of them might be suggestion for MacOS 10.10 before fall release.
    first question ....., I'd like to ask about external hdd which i already plug-in to my  mac but I can't move any files from Mac HDD to them even change the filenames for the files in there. Question is., do you have any suggestion or else as solution for this problem.......
    second question ....., will be all about blu-ray disc player and burning as build-in or that you can integrated software as dvd player. I don't understand why apple keep away to put this solution into macos and why do users need to spend 3-12 dollars for purchase application in store for this innocent issue. I don't wanna say this as the question but I want this suggestion as the real case to make apple renovate dvd player to all content players and rename its to iPlayer  or iMedia. I hope this case will be solve in coming macos x.
    third question, about map application in marvelick os........why don't you put the quicklook or street view into application i really need it so much.
    All these questions and suggestions are asking by sincerely mind and need so please not just sit and skip mine, so I look forward to see your reply. Thanks
    Peter

    If you would like to make suggestions to Apple, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    You are not speaking with Apple here. These are user to user technical forums and we volunteer our time to help.
    First: how is the external hard drive formatted? If it is Windows formatted, Mac can probably not write to it, so check that first and then format it Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and GUID Partition scheme.
    Second: Apple does not offer blu-ray because it does not have the license to do it. You can get an external blu-ray player/burner and then you need Roxio Toast to burn in blu-ray.
    Third: give Apple the feedback on that.

  • Blu-ray builds to an ISO always change my 5.1 audio to stereo.

    I'm editing in Premier Pro CS6 and sending via a dynamic link to Encore. I'm building my menus and importing other timelines before making the final build as an ISO (Blu-ray Image). I believe I have everything set to the proper Blu-ray specs however the builds always change my 5.1 audio to stereo. The Blu-ray Transcode Status shows Transcoded and the Transcode Settings show Automatic for all the sequences and -- or N/A for the timelines.
    Is there anyone out there who has idea as to what I'm doing wrong? Any help is appreciated, thanks

    I don't think you can dynamic link 5.1 audio. Encore will handle it as pass through, but with dynamic link, there is no compliant file for Encore to use.
    If the Bluray transcode status shows "transcoded," it means that Encore has transcoded it (into stereo). You want to see "do not transcode," but by definition, dynamic link shows "untranscoded."
    You can export the audio only as 5.1 and import that. Encore can handle the video only as dynamic link. But I worry about a very small difference creating sync issues.

  • Blu Ray building process stops at a certain point in Encore CS 5.5 for Mac....

    In Encore CS 5.5, I am trying to author a 3:21 hour long video as one timeline imported from PPRO CS5.5 on a BD-DL. File size is 38.30GB. In transcoding everything works normal. When it comes to building, it stops at 26.87 GB or 26.92 GB. This has been happening third time in a row. From the sound it looks that Blu Ray burner is trying to continue with the burning process, but nothing happens. When I tried to burn the file as Image, i got Error Code 25. Can anyone help?

    Did it give any error when you say that it stopped at some point while burning the disc? If it didn't give any error, for how long the burning did not proceed further? Sometimes the progress bar might stuck at some point but the burning keeps on going. You might want it to go overnight to see if this really hangs at that point.
    Error code 25 while burning a dual layer image is a bug in 5.5. This is related to some kind of layer break for dual layer image. This should have been fixed in 6.0.1 (patch update to 6.0)

    Above error message when I attempt to backup my catalog in Photoshop elements 11. I have downloaded new firmware for the blu ray drive. The error occurs at the end of the backup. However backup failed....

    Hi,
    did you get a resolution on this?
    I get the very same error when trying my first backup to a new LG Blu Ray burner. I have Win 7 and PSE12.
    The error happens in the first blu ray. When retrying I get the same error. Very annoying: spent 2 BD-R discs and half a day!

  • Chapters Incorrect on Blu-ray Build

    I have been trying to build a bluray and dvd of a project i have worked on. When i build the dvd, it comes out fine. However, when i build the bluray, the chapters are all wrong. some are missing and others are randomly sprinkled throughout the project. can anyone help with this?
    thanks

    I have no solution, but think it might help, if I ever get around to testing this, if I get a more complete picture. What is the source material and sequence settings in Premiere?
    The Encore transcode for DVD must be mpeg2. What do you  have it set for bluray? H.264?

  • 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.

  • Encore CS4 is transcoding compliant Blu-Ray audio assets when set to 'Do not transcode'

    Hi there,
    I have a Blu-Ray concert video project consisting of 3-menus, 4-sequentially linked timelines (intro-1, intro-2, main concert timeline, and credits).
    All audio assets consist of 96k/24-bit WAV files from the same professionally rendered mastered audio source.
    Here's the issue:
    When importing my 96k/24-bit audio assets in Encore CS4, they all show as Blu-Ray compliant and maintain the 'Do not transcode' property in the assets menu.
    However, after rendering the project to Blu-Ray I immediately noticed that the main concert timeline (2-hrs 10-min) had been transcoded down to 48k/16-bit while the other smaller intro/credits timelines had rendered correctly and were playing back at the desired 96k.24-bit rate.
    In order to eliminate possible issues with the main timeline's audio file source, I created a smaller main timeline (35-min) using the exact same audio source files and lo & behold - the main timeline was not down-transcoded and is playing back at the desired 96k/24-bit rate.
    I'm wondering if there is a non-documented limitation in rendering audio files over a certain size as my main timeline is made up of 2-total WAV files of 2.2Gb each.
    I have the ability to import a single AIFF file at 4.4GB for the main timeline - but for some reason CS4 does not recognize AIFF files as Blu-Ray compliant and will show the transcode setting as 'Automatic'.
    Imported AIFF files always showed as 'Do not transcode' in the Blu-Ray assets menu in Encore CS3 (even though there is a documented bug which prevents rendering AIFF audio to Blu-Ray and I would have to convert to WAV files and re-import anyway in CS3).
    My next step is to try splitting the main timeline into shorter chunks, but this is not the direction I want to go in.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    -Cheers

    Ok, solved my own problem - solution below for those with similar issues.
    1. My audio timelines exported from Final Cut Pro as AIFF are actually 'AIFC' which is technically not Blu-Ray compliant, thus Encore will need to transcode. Unfortunately - Encore has no quality preset settings for dealing with PCM audio transcodes higher than 48k/16-bit (why not?). Encore CS4 will happily pass 96k/24-bit through to a Blu-Ray build without transcoding if the supplied file is true AIFF (not-AIFC) and/or similarly compliant WAV files.
    2. My main Encore timeline consisted of 2-WAV files at 2.2Gb each placed in a single Encore timeline due to the total audio being over 4GB thus requiring me to split the source audio files in half in order to stay under the 4GB limit for WAV files, and also because I had to export the FCP audio timeline using Compressor in order to generate Blu-Ray compliant audio files (non-AIFC). Also - (possible bug?) if Encore has 2-separate audio files in the same timeline it will transcode the audio to the current project's default audio settings (48k/16-bit in my case) - even though the assets are showing as 'Do not transcode' in the asset menu for Blu-Ray. It clearly states in the Encore CS4 manual that imported WAV files at 96k/24-bit will not be transcoded - but it appears in this case when 2-audio files are placed in the same timeline that it will transcode with no warning - bothersome to say the least.
    I suppose the alternative is to work with a lossless audio format which supports files larger than 4GB - which would only require a single audio file for a single Encore timeline, but other than DTS Master Audio (not available on this project) I'm not sure what audio format would work in Encore to support 96k/24-bit audio files larger than 4GB.
    If anyone knows - drop some knowledge!
    -Cheers

  • Workflow asked: 70min hd project (PAL 1080i50)to blue ray disc with toast 11

    i tried to render a final cut Pro HD project (PAL 1080i50) into a blue ray disc with toast 11.
    At the end camera pans juddered in a fast rhythm
    My steps are:

    export timeline to a quicktime movie
    load the quicktime movie in Toast 11
    toast dit convert the qtm-file again
    and burned the blue ray with the result described above.
    Thanks for answers

    Please examine my workflow. Perhaps you quickly find out any error:

    70 minutes sequence: the same options
    exported timeline into a Quicktime Movie - same option
    loaded the resulting QTM into Toast 11

    Result
    on tv-screen (hd flat screen philips) camera pans judder in a regular rhythm, perhaps twice in a second: the actor seems making little jumps when he walks silently from the right to the left or vice versa.
    earlyer we tried to burn a blue ray disc directly from FCP 7.0.3 by using the option "send to blue ray"
    The result was the same.

  • 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.

  • PS3 (blu-ray player) will not play movie after menu selection on this particular project?

    When trying to play my finished Blu-ray disc on PS3 the menus display and work good. However, when I choose a selection to play the movie it returns back to the main menu. It doesn't matter if I choose the main play button or one of the chapters on the scene selection menu, it does not play the movie but rather returns to the main menu. Menus appear to be working fine!
    I've used Encore for years and I'm pretty familiar with the ins and outs of creating DVD's. I'm a little new at creating Blu-rays but have found the process very similar to creating DVDs with the addition of being able to add Popup menus. I pretty much followed the same process as a Blu-ray I created a couple months ago which worked fine. So I'm pretty much at a lose how to trouble shoot this issue. The only thing that has changed is that I've upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite but I really don't know if that is a factor or not. Encore did not run into any issues while working on the project.
    Everything works when previewing my project in Encore. All the menus and buttons work and the movie plays fine. Also, no errors are reported after running the Check Project process on the Build tab.
    I usually create an ISO file to burn from later. Encore created the ISO file and reported success.
    I'm running Adobe CS6 on a Mac with Yosemite. FCPX was used to output the AC3 audio file and 264 video file. Menu transitions are ProRes422.
    So far while trouble shooting I've made 3 coasters.
    1st disc was created using Yosemite Disk Utility to burn the ISO file created by Encore (my usual way).
    2nd, and 3rd disc I let Encore burn directly from the project.
    3rd disk I removed the PopUp menu as I've only done one in the past and figured I would try that as a trouble shooting step.
    So, since everything appears fine Encore I'm really not sure how to trouble shoot this. I wish Apple would support Blu-ray better so I could just open the ISO file in DVD Player like I do when I create DVD ISOs. So much easier than having to trouble shoot by creating coasters.
    If anyone has come across this issue before and has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. I'd like to complete this project and move on.
    Thanks in advance!

    Well, at this point I'm thinking maybe something is wrong with the movie files output from FCPX even though they play fine in Encore. I noticed that there is a one frame difference between the video and audio file. The video file is 00:38:45:01 and the audio file is 00:38:45:02. I already output the file using Compressor. However, I'm still seeing the exact same time difference between the video and audio file when imported back into Encore. I'm going to rebuild the Encore project from scratch using the movie files output from Compressor and try again. If that doesn't work I'll use 7toX to convert FCPX XML and try importing the XML into Premier Pro and output the movie files that way for Encore. Or, output a master file from FCPX and let Encore do the transcoding.

  • Fcpx, Blu-Ray & toast 11 = Burn both files in the img?

    Looking to burn a Blu-Ray that is compatible with a standard home Blu-Ray player.
    short:
    On a FCPX Blu-Ray IMG, do you include both files in the burn or just the BDMG?
    Long:
    Job is all 5D mark 3 footage.
    I have FCX 10.0.8. & output finished job to "share" BLU-Ray.
    Result is a .IMG that when opened holds a BDMG file and a folder labeled CERTIFICATE.
    I have a Mac Book Pro with a Blu-Ray burner.
    Also have Toast 11 with the DB add-on.
    What I don't have is a standard home Blu-Ray player to test the burn.
    I do have a Blu-Ray player on my Mac but it's not the same as testing a standard home Blu-Ray player because on a home player when you put the disc in it either plays or doesn't.
    Anyone experionce this before? And knows the solution to this diddy?
    Thanks!
    I would spend hours searching all the... results, as I normally do, but need to get it out tonight :-}

    I think I found the answer. Looks like Both go in the burn.
    1st, sorry for the short hand speech and typos. (BDMG should be BDMV)
    In videohelp form it was suggested that both the BDMV and the CERTIFICATE should be in the burn.
    http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/325212-How-to-burn-a-BDMV-folder
    Incase someone is searching for this same question, I thought I'd give the answer I found and break it down a little further.
    Q: How do I output to Blu-Ray in Final Cut Pro X? I don't see a Blu-Ray option.
    A: In 10.0.8 that option is hidden from the main "share" menu. 
    Here is Apples "how to" page on how to find it, along with other info on Destination Prefs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12718
    Basically you select Share, then the plus sign "Add Destination" located at the bottom of the list, then Blu-Ray. 
    When you select Blu-Ray, in the preference window, the first pref. is "Output device" with two options your burner or hard drive. If you pick hard drive you get a .IMG that you would open and place the contents into a burn.
    Q: What Blu-Ray burner is in your Mac?
    A:  a Panasonic UJ267
    Very overpriced and had to modify (voided the warranty) in order for it to fit in my 15-inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
    I switched one of the covers on the Panasonic with my existing to get the right fit. One screw hole had a "no tamper" label that I destroyed, so that voided my warranty.
    Q: why not an external?
    A: I have one but it's big and needs AC power so it's not easy to move.
    This is soooooo much easier because it's so mobile.
    24 Gig backups of all my stuff for a $1 per burn is priceless.
    Best of luck!

  • Cannot encode for Blu-ray PP/Media Encoder CS6

    This problem seems to stretch across several products, but since the key issue seems to be round encoding I am posting here.  I have searched under various headings in several forums but cannot see an answer.
    I recently upgraded to CS6.  I am fairly sure that I was able to do all these things in the previous version.  This is the rough sequence of events.
    1  25 minute film sitting in PP CS6 waiting to burn to DVD and Blu-ray.
    2  Used dynamic link from PP to Encore and burnt a DVD with no problems.
    3  Tried the same project with Blu-ray - failure at the very end of the process.  Cannot now remember the message, but some type of missing file on export.
    4  Tried export from PP to ME - error messages at very end of processsaid unkown error.  The hard disc folder in question has been used umpteen times for the same purpose and has 150GB free.
    5  Created a separate mp4 file for each sequence.  Imported as asset into Encore.  Would not burn Blu-ray.  Similar error message to above.
    6  Used Encore to create disc image from files in point 5.
    7  Used another program (Cyberlink Blu-ray disc suite) to burn Blu-ray form disc image - worked first time.
    8  Tried again by splitting the main sequence into 3 parts.  Parts 1 and 2 encoded successfully, part 3 did not.
    9  Split part 3 into 2 (so now 4 parts) and parts 3 and 4 encoded successfully.
    10 Imported all 4 parts into Encore and tried burning BD.  Got Blu-ray error at end of process.
    11  Created image from the 4 parts and Cyberlink successfully created BD on same disc.
    12  Tried one more time joining together all the 4 sequences that encoded successfully individually - unkown file error again.  Is there some limit that says you cannot encode a BR file over 15 minutes?
    Now you could say, why not just continue with the very convoluted workflow that I now have.  Two reasons: I am pretty annoyed that I have paid a large sum for an Adobe suite that is not really a suite (so many interfaces do not work); secondly, it is extremely difficult to break the film into sections and have a smooth connection between them.  Where two sequences join it is impossible to include a transition.  The suggestions on Adobe site when I searched for one of the error messages were less than helpful.  Since this file takes 2 hours to encode I am now getting into days of wasted time.  I cannot understand why it worked first time in DVD and never in Blu-ray.
    Stuart
    Additional note - probably solved
    I may have solved the problem.
    I found that one of the sequences consistently failed to encode.  I tried to render this in PP and continued to get the same error message: 'unkown error'.  I narrowed down the render to the red lined sections and found that three clips had used RGB colour corrector.  When I removed RGB colour corrector the clips rendered and I was able to encode with AME.  I still have no idea why a standard effect caused this and why it rendered correctly as a DVD.
    I don't yet know if the full length film will render - that's the next test.

    No one ever responded unfortunately and I never figured out a work around.
    In Media Encoder CC there is a system preset for DNxHD MXF which I've used
    to yield Avid files. The weird thing is that the CC version does the exact
    same thing as the CS6 if you choose quicktime, DNxHD codec, and try to
    change the codec settings. None of the settings update. If you find out
    anything more about this I'd appreciate getting an update. Thanks!

  • Final Cut Pro X Blu Ray chapters

    I have created several Blu Rays using the chapter markers in FCPX and if I create a DVD from the share menu it works fine in either a DVD or Blu Ray player.
    However if I create a BD from the same original 1080P project and use share/create Blu ray the resulting disk has a functioning menu and everything is there but skip only functions on some (PS3) but neither of my Panasonic BD players so the encoding on disk must not be fully complient. My only other option is to render a file and burn it in Toast but there are big issues there also. And output from Compressor seems to have the same issu. Anyone know a work around for this? The disks play beautifully and look great but just don't function as they should.

    I don't think that FCP will give you much control over the quality of the bluray disk, so this may not be an issue for you.  You may have more control in compressor but you might just want to do a test and see what the quality look like.  the 2 other options I know about are roxio toast and adobe encore.

Maybe you are looking for
