Can't create working DVD in Encore CS3

Hi,
I'v created an Encore CS3 project which works perfectly when built to a flash (.swf) and the buttons, menus & videos all works perfectly in the preview in Encore.
I've tried burning DVDs two ways:
1. directly from Encore
2. burn an image to my hard drive and burn that to disc using "ImgBurn" which is freeware recommended by another forum user.
Both have the same result - the video will play on my pc, but the buttons won't work. When I try a DVD player, the first play opens up but it won't allow me to arrow through menus or select anything - I tried both the play key & the enter key on the remote.
I'm burning to a DVD+R
Any ideas? What have I done wrong?

The first thing I would check would be whether there are any overlapping buttons.

  • Can one create 2 dvd's instead of a DL-DVD?

    Hi,
    Can one create two DVD's as output from Encore CS 5, instead of one DL-DVD?  This is a very big project - around 1.5 hours and I need to distribute to someone who might not have DL playback capabilities.  I really don't want to go back to Premiere to come up with two sequences and then transcode again.  This takes too much time.  If there are ways to do this outside of Encore and Premiere if it's not possible to do it within Encore alone, that would also be appreciated.
    I am assuming that what I want to do can't be done, from the following post:

    Steve,
    Encore is not the tool for this. Going back to PrPro will save you a lot of grief, and will be much quicker.
    Just do the Exports for "Part 1," and then "Part 2." Do separate Projects in Encore, but you might want to do the setup first, without any Video and Audio Assets (except if used in Menus), and do a Save for this "template." Then, Open that "template" Project, do a Save_As (naming this Part 1), so you are not overwriting the "template," and then Import the unique Assets, link and Burn to Disc (Disc 1). Go back to the "template" do a Save_As (naming this Part 2), and repeat. Simple, and that "template" Project saves having to do the setup all over again.
    Good luck,

  • Encore DVD to Encore CS3

    I have a DVD that was created with the Premiere 2.0 and then into Encore DVD. Now I need to make this same DVD into a BluRay. I have the new Encore CS3 but it is not letting me open the file.
    Any hope of this working?
    I also I cannot open the old Premiere file into CS3. Is there a way around this.
    Thanks,
    ms

    Unless you still have the original, untranscoded AVI files, then forget it. Seriously.
    And if you need to make more than a couple of burned copies, forget it.
    You cannot replicate Blu Ray created in Encore CS3 - the plants will
    i not
    accept the discs.

  • How can I create a dvd with NO theme?

    I'd like to create a DVD that shows an image of my choice when inserted in player, with one play button start movie. All themes seem to have some moving graphic or fancy stuff.

    Hi
    Easy is to put movie into AutoPlay box in organizing view in iDVD window (top left most box)
    But this ends in a menu - This can be a black photo to simulate No Menu
    All themes seem to have some moving graphic or fancy stuff.
    No - and especially the old ones. AND by using the mid round button under the iDVD menu window (the one with two semi-circular arrows) You turn off Animation - I always do !
    from. Klaus1 in Somerset, UK
    How to create a DVD in iDVD6 without menu (there are several options)
    1. Easy. Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously.
    Disadvantage. The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
    2. Still easy. If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well).
    Disadvantage. The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
    3. Still quite easy but takes more time. Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
    Disadvantage. One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
    4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software. Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn.
    Disadvantage. you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
    5. The "hard way". Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
    Tools necessary. myDVDedit ( www.mydvdedit.com )
    • create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
    • Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
    • Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
    • Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
    • Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
    • Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
    • Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager.

  • How can I create a DVD image that PC users can retrieve and burn...

    I need to create a DVD disc image that PC users can retrieve from a private network share and burn to a blank DVD. Once burned, it needs to auto-start at the Menu. The master works fine. Images burned using the Mac Disk Utility work fine. But I have little control over who will download the image or the method by which they will burn it, so I need to provide visitors with guidance. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

    Thank Jeff for this one.....
    http://homepage.mac.com/geerlingguy/macsupport/mac_help/pages/0023-convert_dmg_imgiso.html
    I've also heard that you can just copy an ".img" iDVD image to a pc, change the extension to .iso and then burn with Nero, etc. But I haven't tried it myself.....

  • Want to create a dvd in encore, i have created dvd2-mpeg file and have timeline premiere?

    hello guys
    i hope you can help
    i have adobe premiere cs6 and i have created a dvd2-mpeg file which i want to burn to dvd, its about 7 gb. i want to fit this on a single dvd or dual layer dvd if quality is a problem
    i have been told encore can encode the files in the right format etc
    please can you advise me on the steps i need to do so i can create a dvd disk please?
    i have a macbook air which doesnt have a disk drive, so i will need the files to be copied on an external drive and burnt to a disk on another computer..

    Hello, and welcome to the forums.
    You'll need to put this onto a dual layer project, as single layer will only get you to 4.7GB (not quite as much as it seems, either, as DVD Gb are smaller than computer Gb are).
    You do not mention anything about menus or navigational aids on your DVD - are these required?
    Also, what form is your audio in please? MPEG audio is not a good idea, and for DVD use the files ideally need to be "Elementary streams", meaning separate video & audio files.
    A simple slutiom might be to go back to your premiere pro project, and take the original timeline - before you transcoded it to MPEG-2 - and send this to Encore using Dynamic Linking. This will launch Encore for you, and place your premiere timeline into an Encore project.
    There you can create your menus and set all your navigational stuff up.
    When completed, simply compile the project to a DVD image - this will create an ISO file that can be moved for burning.
    That's the short answer, but it can get a lot more complicated.
    For starters, your audio file will need to be in a DVD compliant type- that means either LPCM or Dolby Digital.
    LPCM is the best quality, but uses a lot more bits & reduces available space for your film so you need to decide how important the audio content is.
    Encore will allow you to set the audio default to LPCM, and will then try to get the best fit for your video file in "Automatic" mode.
    Once you can let me know the aswers above (are menus needed, what is your audio file) etc, I can walk you through the steps needed.

  • Can not create a DVD (It gets green on the lower half of monitor)

    Hi, everyone. This is second posting.
    I still have a problem when burning the DVD.
    Now I am ready to create a DVD.
    Then I simulated the project on DVD Studio Pro 4 ,the lower half of the monitor gets green.
    And sometimes I can not burn a DVD (can not choose "format") or even I could do it and mount it again , it shows "untitled DVD") Besides the burned DVD also gets green.
    My project worked fine on final cut pro.
    Did I install This application wrong?
    or my Macpro has a problem with itself?
    I need help. Please please give me any advise.
    Thank you.

    Yes, by citations I mean footnotes, or endnotes in this case.
    I finally found the vertical ruler, which wasn't showing, but what really solved it for me was turning on invisibles, which let me see what the column breaks were doing. I still don't have the total control I want over the way it looks, but at least the two, two-column sections are separate and above and below the horizontal box. I wish all the citations were below the rule line.
    But I was amazed and grateful to find that Word docs would drag and drop into Pages. This is going to be a great tool. I just started with it a few days ago. I will report the non-wrap bug.
    Thanks,

  • Can I Create a DVD in Captivate 5 to auto-run on Standalone DVD Player

    I upgraded to Captivate 5 and created a 4-minute "infomercial" of our product. I was able to publish it as an exe so stores could play it on their Windows computer. I was also able to publish it as an Application so stores could play it on their Mac computers.
    But how do I publish it for stores that just have a cheap stand-alone DVD player? Most DVDs the stores get from other vendors have a DVD with AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS files on the DVD and this just starts playing when they insert the DVD. I want to do that as well.
    Adobe tech support said to publish my Captivate 5 project as SWF and check the Auto-play box. This generated about 5-6 files but none start up right away (although the one with an htm extension does run on my Windows Computer if I first click on it.)
    Past Forum postings from years ago seem to say to Publish using F4V, convert using Adobe Media Encoder and then use Encore to create the final DVD. I did publish using F4V and then downloaded Adobe Media Encoder from your web site and ran the F4V file through that. Now I am stuck. Do I need to buy a $1,600 product called Creative Suite 5 to get to the last step and create a DVD that plays automatically when inserted in a Stand-alone DVD player? There must be a simpler (cheaper) solution.  HELP!!!

    Hi there
    I'm guessing you will need to consider publishing as Media (F4V with Fixed Frame Rate). Then take that and pop it into a converter such as the ones you may easily find using Google.

  • How can I create a DVD (not CD) slide show with PSE8. Is the only option CD?

    Do I need to upgrade to PSE9 for the DVD option for slide show output?

    No, you can't create a video dvd with just PSE, and PSE 9 is no different from any other version where this is concerned. (Adobe wants you to use Premiere Elements.) However, if you have a DVD burner, you must have gotten some kind of software with it that can make a DVD for you. Create your slideshow, output as WMV and then use your other software to burn the actual video disc.

  • Can't create a DVD

    I am using premiere elements and created a film.   I burned a DVD and all was fine.   Now I added pictures and some music to the film and when I try to burn a DVD I get the indexing window and nothing happens -- even waiting for an hour.   So, what can I do to create a DVD or determine what is wrong?  

    tomwarner364
    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system?
    What is your Premiere Elements project preset (new project dialog) and what are the properties of your source media on the Timeline being burn to disc. Is the intent NTSC or PAL and Standard or Widescreen? What are the pixel dimensions of those pictures that you have added? Does the addition of the pictures and music to the original Timeline represent a large increase in content or just a minor adjustment? What are the properties of the music that you added?
    In the burn dialog  just before you hit Burn, what does the Quality Area say there for Space Required and Bitrate for the original and this latest content?
    If you take the very same Timeline content, can you burn that to folder without issues?
    Have you moved around any of the source media that went into the project before you made those additions?
    Thanks.

  • Can't create new sites in Dreamweaver CS3.  Help!

    I am trying to create a new site in Dreamweaver CS3 but keep
    getting the following error:
    "The action cannot be completed because the other program is
    busy.
    Choose 'Switch to' to activate the program and correct the
    problem"
    I have tried every documented solution on the adobe website
    and other discussion forums and still cannot get past the problem.
    I have restarted the IIS server on my local PC as documented
    on the following adobe technote:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_16485&sliceId=2
    Other things I have done:
    1. I have followed all the advice in the links at the bottom
    of the above page.
    2. I have created a new user, logged into that and tried
    creating a site with a "virgin" environment
    and I still have the problem.
    3. I have gone into the registry and renamed the site
    configuration info in case something was corrupted.
    This removed all my site configurations. No help!
    4. I have turned of my firewall and restarted the IIS
    server.
    5. I have searched the web for anything even remotely
    similar to this error and tried every tip out there.
    I called Adobe and they referred me back to the technote
    above, which I had already tried.
    One last bit of info. I can't create new sites, but I can
    edit web pages in my existing sites. However, I cannot change the
    configuration of the website in the Manage Sites area (i.e. I can't
    push the Edit button).
    Has anyone had this problem? Any help would be appreciated. I
    have hit a brick wall on this one and am trying to meet a deadline
    on a new website I need to create.
    If I can't find a solution quick, I will be an
    ex-Dreamweaver user. That saddens me because I really like
    Dreamweaver, but I have to perform on my job.

  • Can't create backup dvd ! Impossible de créer DVD de sauvegarde

    Hi, before formating my hard drive, i want to save my file, i go in "Files---Library" and i can't find option create backup DVD, got only Organize/export library or import liste , can you help me please ?
    Bonjour, voulant formater je souhaite sauvegarder ma bibliotheque iTunes, mais quand je vais dans "Fichier_bibliotheque" dans l onglet je n'ai pas la proposition pour créer un dvd de sauvegarde, j ai seulement Organiser/Exporter bibliotheque ou importer la liste, ou trouver l'option pour faire une sauvegarde ?

    That feature has thoughtfully been removed from 10.4. You will have to use some other process - external to iTunes - to back up your files now.

  • Maximale Qualität auf DVD mit Encore CS3?

    Ich brenne direkt aus dem Schnittprogramm CS3 mit Adobe Encore auf DVD. Doch der volle Speicherplatz der DVD 4,7 GB wird trotz maximaler Einstellungen in Encore nicht ausgenutzt.
    Einstellungen: Widescreen, CBR Qualität 5 und 5 MBit/s, Anzeige Speichermenge: 4,5 GB. Auf der gebrannten DVD bleibt aber ca. ein Viertel Speicherplatz frei.
    Bei einer höheren Qualitätseinstellung in Encore, z.B. 5,3 MBit/s - kommt die Meldung Speicherplatz überschritten, brennen nicht möglich. Tatsächlich stimmt das aber nicht.
    Wie kann ich mit Encore CS3 den Speicherplatz einer DVD voll ausnutzen?
    Bei Double Layer tritt das gleiche Probleme auf.
    Für Rat bin ich dankbar.

    Hast du mal darauf geachtet, welche Frequenz du hast 44,1 oder 47 kHz? Da kann der Ton schon mal weg sein. Da gibt es unterschiedliche Standards für VideoDVD und TonCD.
