Burning a DVD from Premier Elements 8

I have recently been making my first video using Adobe Premier Elements 8 and am now ready to burn it to a DVD. A message appears directing me to go to www.adobe.com/go/premiereel encoder and type in a 50 character authorization code to receive an unlock code. This computer is never connected to the internet. I've contacted Adobe and they've suggested this forum for a solution. So here I am again (I tried yesterday). Can anyone out there help a low-tech guy in a high-tech world?

Let us not give up yet. I am not an Adobe employee, just a Premiere Elements user like yourself with at lot of troubleshooting curiosity.
1. Did you read the thread of tcmusic
http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76803
that I mentioned in your duplicate thread.
2. This is what I would like you to do if nothing else is working to solve the problem:
a. If the Deactivate option is active under Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Help Menu in the workspace, then go Help Menu/Deactivate. Close Premiere Elements.
b. Uninstall the Premiere Elements via the typical Control Panel route.
c. Get your computer connected to the Internet for now.
d. Reinstall Premiere Elements 8 and then the Premiere Elements 8.0.1 Update.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4653
You can download and install this update with Premiere Elements 8.0 closed.
e. Open Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1, new project, and try for the burn to DVD and let us know the outcome.
(After you install the 8.0.1 Update, there is no 8.0.1 noted in the screens. Just watch for the message at the end of the install that the 8.0.1 Update has been successfully installed. Besides that message, a good sign that the 8.0.1 Update has been installed is finding a disabled automatic Background Rendering option under Edit Menu/Preferences/General.
We will be watching for your results. By the way, how did you get the program installed previously without having an Internet connection?
Thanks.

Internal Software Error during burn to DVD in Premier Element 9

During a burn to DVD in Premier Element 9 I encountered an internal software error (.\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp line 215). What does this mean? What is the solution?

Poor quality DVD from Premier Elements 1.0

I've captured 5 short clips from my miniDV camcorder with premier elements. The avi files look like reasonably good quality. When I export to DVD, the 5 minutes of video, the quality is very poor, almost blurry or like it has way too much compression. I exported with the 'fit contents to media' unchecked and the quality setting to High, USA Japan, NTSC.
I took the same clips and burned a DVD from Sonic MyDvd and the quality was much better.
I have the latest premiere Elements 7 on order but I want to know if anyone else has had a similar problem. I seem to remember premiere making better DVDs when I first installed but can't find anything in the settings that has changes.
Thanks,
Mike

When recording your video with miniDV, are you shooting in High Definition or Standard?
What project preset are you setting for at the Premiere Elements Welcome Screen/Setup?

How to burn a DVD in Premier Elements 13 without a theme?

In the other Premier Elements you were able to take your project and burn straight to a DVD without applying a theme. I am not finding that option in 13. What am I missing?

JimESmythe
Thanks for the reply.
Assuming, Premiere Elements 13 is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
When you go to Publish+Share, the instant that you click on Disc, you should see a pop up message relating to
whether or not you want to proceed with disc menus. Have you seen that message at all?
I am demo'ing this with Premiere Elements 12/12.1 at this time. But it should be the same for version 13.
I do not have 13 at this time to road test.
What happens when you go from the Expert workspace/Edit area to Publish+Share/ and click on Disc?
If all you ever see is the Movie Menu customization area with a theme, then click Reset, Done, and then go
to Publish+Share and click Disc to get the pop to which you respond No.
If that does not work, then delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole 12.0 Folder
in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists.
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
13.0
and in the 13.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. And, if necessary, you delete the
whole 13.0 Folder in which it exists. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives
active so that you can see the complete path cited.
Please review the above and then we can discuss this further.
Thank you.

Quality problems when burning a dvd with Premier Elements 11

I purchased a while ago, but just recently installed Premier Elements 11. I previously had 9 and 10. 11 was great until I burned to a disc. The quality is very substandard. Have you come up with a fix for this? I have read many other complaints about the quality of burning.
Until I can get a fix, I have uninstalled 11 and gone back to version 10.

Irene
Thanks for reporting on your results. Much appreciated.
Do you have the opportunity to record 1080p instead of 1080i? If so, we would be interested in the results. But, for now, just some miscellaneous comments.
1. What are you using to apply the pan and zoom effect?
Pan and Zoom Tool
Keyframing of the Motion Position property for Pan and Motion Scale property for Zoom
Presets under fx Effect/Presets for pan or zoom.
Are you applying the same pan and zoom effect to each of the photos?
If so (an not using the Pan and Zoom Tool),
Pan and zoom one photo, then copy/paste effects and adjustments for a group selection of the rest.
If using the Pan and Zoom Tool, then consider
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Pan & Zoom Tool, More Than One Photo at a Time
This is acceptable for a few photos, but the increased duration that it will add to the Timeline content may make it prohibitive.
We are not Adobe here. Rather user to user. We are all visitors here. But, please let me know if you have any additional questions or
need clarification on anything that I have written.

Burning a DVD from CS4 on a Windows 7 computer

I'm unable to burn a DVD from the edited timeline in CS4. I have Windows 7 Home Premium software loaded on my PC. When I go from Dynamic Link to Encore I get an error message stating Encore is not compatible with my PC. How can I burn a DVD using CS4 and Windows 7?

Create an ISO (Encore) or folder on your hard drive (Encore or Premiere Elements) and then use the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Imgburn will read the ACTUAL disc brand from the disc, which is not always the same as the box label (Memorex is notorious for buying "anything" and putting it inside a Memorex box)
When you write to disc with Imgburn, use the slowest possible speed setting, so your burner has the best chance to create "good, well formed" laser burn holes... since no DVD player is required to read a burned disc, having a "good" one from a high quality blank will help
Use Taiyo Yuden single layer or Verbatim dual layer
Or Falcon Pro for inkjet printable dual layer

Can't burn a DVD on Premiere Elements 12

At 98% media encoding the DVD is spit out and I get the following: internal software error:/premiere/elements/molecules/pre-mediacore/External/AuthorScript/Source
Any suggestions? I need the video for a class this week!

ATR,
Thank you for the reply and suggestions. I did some more researching and found a suggestion to remove the stop marker at the end of my video....and it worked! Apparently the stop marker causes an internal error. Mystery solved.
Thank you again for the ideas. I'm going to keep them on file for the next burn hic-up.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
Is this an external or internal burner?
Would you say that this is a case of "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before"?
Although you cannot burn to disc DVD, can you burn your Timeline to folder. If so, the VIDEO_TS Folder from the burn to folder + ImgBurn to get your DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc may be your answer to this time crunch.
Let us start here and then decide what next depending on your answers.
Next step may be getting more information about your project settings and properties of your source media.
Could you post a screenshot of the error message that you are getting?
More details in the morning when we will be watch for your follow up.
Thanks.

Hi
And if You change view - in main "window/view field" so that You see the box-plot structure.
No exclamation marks there either ?
and non at the front page ?
iDVD do not copy Your material - only points to where it is stored. So if on any external hard disks, USB-memories, CDs or DVDs are missing - assetts are broken.
Or if You changed location of any material or directed iPhoto or iTunes or GarageBand to a new Library - Then iMovie/iDVD also get's lost.

Burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro X via Compressor - No audio?

I have attempted to burn a DVD from a Final Cut Pro X project using Compressor, however the result was silent.
I used compressor because my FCPx project is in NTSC and my DVD is for air on Australian TV (PAL).
Image seemed to burn OK however there is no audio. Can anyone advise what I may have overlooked?
This is the first time I have used Compressor, and I am fairly new to FCP X.
thanks,
Geoff

Thanks Russ. OK, I am now rendering again via Compressor 4, this time I have 2 files in one tab - 1) a MPEG-2 and 2) an AC3 file. Seems to make sense.
To burn the DVD immediately after, I added a 'Job Action' to 'Create DVD' after the render, and the dialog confuses me. No problems with the 'Job Action' tab, but the "A/V Attributes" tab indicates the follwing:
Type: Final Cut Pro.app (shouldn't this be a reference to the rendered file/s?)
Video - showing the same dimensions of my FCPx Project file (NTSC ..640 x 480) instead of the MPEG-2 (Pal ...720 x 576).
Audio - Properties show Linear PCM... 6 channels, etc... not the AC3 file.
My question is, how do I create a DVD from the newly rendered files output from Compressor - is the Job Action the way to do it, and if so, how do I get it to reference the new files?
Thanks,
Geoff

Burning to DVD from iPhoto - Help!

Hello All
I am trying to burn all our photos from iPhoto to DVD. There is 7.3gb of data, and I am trying to burn to a DL DVD with a capacity of 8.5gb.
The steps I take to do are Share -> Burn. However, when I try this, the bottom of the screen tells me that the disc, with a capacity of 9.3gb, is full. Aside from the weird discrepancy on capacity, this doesn't make any sense, as this is a new, blank DVD fresh out of the packaging/
Strangley, when I go to eject the DVD, it is not on the desktop, and does not appear in Disk Utility, although pressing the eject button does work.
I am using a workaround, having exported the photos to a bun folder and then burning a DVD from there - this is progress and, fingers crossed, seems to be working...
Any ideas?
Cheers
MC

There is 7.3gb of data,
Where are you getting this report?
The iPhoto Window reports the size of the resulting folder if you exported the current version of everything in the Library.
The actual iPhoto Library is much larger. It contains thumbnails, originals, database and cache files.
Regards
TD
