DVDSP Error message

I'm stumped.  I've been trying to burn a dvd the past week and can't.  I have tried both my internal and external burners.  I've also tried in toast but here is the DVDSP log with error message (ANY help would be awesome!)(I've used Sony & TDK DVD-R):

Hmmm... I don't think this is HD - just the name of the project is HHDVDPRO. In the log it does say creating a standard format... however, the OP should be able to clarify :-)
FWIW I would suggest there is a problem with the discs you are burning to, or perhaps with your burner itself. What media are you using? Have you ever cleaned your DVD player's laser?
On another note, I am assuming this is not going to replication, right? If so, you are burning a DVD-R and you need to check ALL of the regions, including 7, in order to make sure there is no contradiction between your project and the media you are writing to (which will report itself as region all (or have a region code mask value of zero). Checking region 7 will cause DVDSP to write the same value as the disc, which is good.
Next I note tht Lossless Linking is off - this is correct if you are going to send the disc for replication. If not, check the bx in the burn/format dialogue and turn it back on again. It is a form of buffer underrun prevention, and if good to leave on if you are burning your own discs.
Don't worry about the 'notes' in there about the '.LAY' files - all normal.
Finally, I see that certain parts are being 'skipped'. This usually indicates that you've one a build before now (probably to test something). If you made no changes after checking everything then that's fine... otherwise it is good practice to delete the test build files and start from scratch...
Finally, are you able to burn to a disc through the finder without any problems - can you create a CD, for example... or a data DVD?

  • DVDSP Build and Burn Error message

    I am new to DVD Studio Pro and came across a problem during the build and burn process.
    When I try to build/format or build, I get an error message that says:
    Language codes for "English" and "English-2" must differ. Build cancelled.
    I am not sure what to do. Does any one know what this means?
    Thanks

    You made another language by mistake. Go to to the bottom of the outline and delete "English-2" and re-build.

  • Keep getting "Buffer Overrun" error message

    Hey, all. I'm trying to burn my (2.5 hour) show from a new G5(OS 10.4.2) w/DVD Studio Pro 4 set at 5(ish) bitrate by 1394 firewire to a dual layer DVD-R in a Plextor 716UF, but keep getting a "Buffer Overrun" error message. Please help...
    Tom

    There can be a few things happening
    One thng to try is just build the DVD Project first to your HD and see if you get the error. If that works then select format (it is a DL Disc it seems) and see if you get en error about the dual layer break being "not found" or invalid then select the DL manually from DVD SP then run again, that worked when I had a similar issue. Also try your internal DL (did not know if you meant new being one of the new DL models, mprobably not since you have the external DL but figured I would throw it out there), perhaps the FW connection is messing up.
    Have you also tried burning with Toast? Did you also aac the audio? Did you encode all assets outside of DVDSP then bring them in? Sometimes even deleting PAR/MPEG files may help. have seen a bunch of strangeness

  • Error Message When Using A.pack

    I have a sequence that I exported out of FCP4.5 using compressor. It is about a two hour long movie and won't fit onto a dvd unless I use A.pack. I launch A.pack and make the settings and drop my AIFF files onto the two speakers and export. It gets about half way done and I get an error message that says "Mac OS has encountered a general error #1." I click OK and have to start over. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks

    Hi Tim,
    Welcome aboard. This is an issue which was not rectified with dual processors until the DVDSP 4 release when Dolby encoding was moved to Compressor.
    The simpliest form which has a good rate of success is set the encode going and don't touch anything until the encode finishes. This works well for most systems.
    If you can't get this to work you will have to download CHUD from versiontracker. And disable one of your processors for the duration of the encoding.
    Happy Camping

  • Error message: Error loading Project _ Invalid project file format

    This monring I open dvdsp project and it happen frozen. It became not responding. So I had to force quit. Now I can't open project file. The error message said "Error loading Project _ Invalid project file format". What should I do?

    This isn't quite the same issue, but close enough that it must be related:
    I was working on a project this morning, added a ton of subtitles and tweaked a jpeg menu (in photoshop). Saved it, closed it down without any issues, and now it won't open. The "Loading Project" box gets 1/4 of the way along and freezes on "Loading Tracks". In Activity Monitor the DSPX_Encoder services are not frozen, although not actually using any CPU power.
    Needless to say I don't have a backup...... and I thought that I had achieved a lot this morning.
    Solutions attempted so far:
    Disconnected the external hard drive with all the assets in the hope that I could isolate a dodgy file. Masde no difference, so the problem must be within the project file itself.
    Anything else to be done??

  • Error message "NTSC assets cannot be imported . . . ."

    This has left me stumped.
    I keep getting the following error message when I try to import m2v clips from compressor:
    "NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects"
    But I haven't made any of my clips NTSC. Im exporting them out of the same FCP project, through the same settings and destination in Compressor and into DVDSP.
    But only some files can be improted in. All the others keep triggering this error message??......

    Ive opened the M2v file in Quicktime, and looking through the movie inspector and movie properties there is no mention of it being PAL or NTSC?
    What is the size that is being reported?
    I am working from the same FCP project as all the other clips I have successfully imported, where the Sequence settings are 'Apple ProRes 422 1440x1080 24p 48kHz'
    I used the same M2V settings and Dolby surround sound settings in Compressor too.
    So you set the timeline out to a SD PAL preset? What you may want to try is copy a preset, and make sure to set the Video Format in the inspector to PAL and Stream Usage to SD DVD. Save the PAL preset as something like "PALTEST" so it is easy to find and when the item is encoded it will have the words "PALTEST" appended to make sure that you are grabbing the right file. You may want to try that on a small section (smallest clip?) to start. Before doing that you can try to delete the MPEG/PAR files for the problematic ones in case something got corrupted when you bought the original probllem ones in....
    What were the Compressor settings that you used? Did you just send to a preset that Apple has in it? What were the names at the end of the files that are giving you issues?

  • Compressor fails on M2V file-Error message says FCP/user quit

    Hello,
    I am trying to do something that I have done hundreds of times, compress a movie file to import into DVDSP. For some reason it will compress the audio fine, but at a totally random time it will unexpectedly quit compressing the video file and give the error message "Final Cut Pro generated an error or unexpectedly quitUser aborted Media Server". It will do this at a different spot every time telling me it is not the video content but more so the program.
    I have tried on several different sequences all over 60 minutes in length (varies from 68 minutes to 130 minutes). I am using the "Fastest Encode" preset, length depending on the length of the sequence I am attempting to compress.
    I can export out of FCP using "quicktime conversion" to MP4 and the same sequence will export just fine? Also I can use Compressor on a much shorter sequence, like an 8 minute clip copied out of the same sequence that fails, and Compressor does it just fine as well? Peculiar.
    The only thing I have done recently is add 4 GIG of RAM, not Apple RAM but since I added it everything has worked just fine but much, much faster.
    I have used Compressor in the past and while I don't get too deep into the program it has never given me any issues.
    Any advice would be very appreciated.
    Many Thanks,

    I can post the entire log if u need. its about 4 pages!
    I tried deleting the chapter markers and same issue.
    The big hassle is, other than not working, it takes and hour or so of crunching before it quits!

  • Windows Vista: Ipod Error Message, no longer read by PCs

    Hello,
    I have a 5th generation black ipod video with 30GB of memory.
    The other day I hooked it up to my laptop (Toshiba, 4 months old) that it's been functioning on with no problems whatsoever. This weird error message flashed twice about it not being able to sync because of some software problem.
    Eversince then, the only thing I can charge my ipod on is the family treadmill in the basement (~_~) as no other computer in the house recognizes it. I can't even charge it through the wall sockets, either.
    I have changed the ipod cord, still no luck. I've also reset the device about 3 or 4 times and uninstalled, restarted the laptop then reinstalled itunes. I would like to reset it back to factory settings but that's impossible as computers/laptops don't pick it up. I live very far from a Mac store...
    What's a girl to do? I can't live without my Busta Rhymes and Wu-Tang Clan!
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    you have to update Vista go to this site and up-date http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

  • Error message into a Variable.

    Dear users,
    I have a rather usual (unusual from the weekend beers for me though!!) query which I can't figure out a proper way to implement.
    My requirement is like this:
    I have a message class in which I want to define a text 'Employee number & not found'.
    I want to use this in the program, but not to raise this error. Instead, I want to move this error message with the Employee number into a Character(200) variable.
    So instead of using MESSAGE e0xx(messageclass) USING employee number, I would like to move the error text into a variable which looks like:
    lv_text = e0xx(messageclass) USING '1234'   which stores the text 'Employee number 1234 not found' in lv_text.
    How would I acheive it??
    Thanks, V!

    Try tis way
    message e999(00) with i_emp-empno into lv_text.
    press f1 in message will provide you more details

  • IPod seen by windows, not by iTunes+ weird error message

    I have a first generation 2GB iPod nano and i use windows xp. I can't load any music because iTunes doesn't see my iPod and an error message pops up that reads like this: "iTunes: iTunes.exe corrupt file. The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes is corrupt and unredable. Please run the checkdisk utility." I've tried everything, reinstalling iTunes, different versions, reinstalling OS, resetting iPod, even on another computer, same problem. Other than that, the iPod works normally, it's just lacking music..
    and why is there no email adress from apple for service qustions? 10x

    I still don't get it, how can I put it in disk mode if I CANNOT see the iPod in iTunes..?
    Did you read the document i linked you to? here's another link to it:
    Putting iPod into Disk Mode
    whereabouts in that procedure in that document (that you get to by clicking that link) does it say that you have to connect it to iTunes to put it into disk mode?
    ... never mind ... i guess you've fixed it anyway ...

  • Error message iPod cannot update b/c all of the playlists no longer exist

    Hello. I have been getting this error message. "Songs on the iPod "MAR(the name of my iPod)" cannot update because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist." And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist. I have a feeling ths might have to do with the fact that on vacation the person I was visiting gave me a gift of putting all of his music that would fit into the external hard drive part of my iPod, and for the past week or so I have been putting that music onto my 40 GB portable hard drive at home. I suspect I took a vital folder out of my iPod by accident. Right now I have the folder iPod_control if I open my iPod up in My Computer. Am I missing something? Right now my iPod is empty because iTunes made a composite playlist last week and I deleted it thinking I could get my real playlists back. Can you help me, or reccomend a site/someone who can? Thank you.
    PC   Windows XP  

    hiya!
    And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist.
    let's just doublecheck this. folks get this message if they have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in their itunes "ipod" preferences tab. so bring up that tab ("edit > preferences", click "ipod" while the ipod is showing up in the source list), and do a playlist by playlist crosscheck of the playlists selected in that tab, and the playlists showing up in the itunes sourcelist.
    is there any playlist selected in the preferences tab that isn't showing up in the sourcelist?

  • Windows Blue Screen Error Message Appears As Soon As IPod Connected

    Everytime I connect my IPod to my computer, I get the Windows Blue Screen error message. Thought it was the cable, so plugged cable in by itself. No problem. Uninstalled IPod and ITunes software and then plugged in IPod, still got the Blue Screen. The Blue Screen says something about "recent plugged in device problem". It is not the cable, it must be the IPod. Did not have this problem when I bought it. Tried it on labtop and get the same error message. I can't do updater or anything that requires me to plug the IPod into a computer because the Blue Screen appears immediately. When I unplug, the Blue Screen remains and locks up the computer so I have to restart each time. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help.

    Hi Mike thank you for replying,
    I am not able to start the computer in safe mode, safe mode with networking, last good known configuration etc, Each time it quickly blue screens and restarts about two secs into the process.
    I was unable to try a clean OS install from the disk as it gave the blue screen error shown in the original post. The same thing happened when I tried to use the repair option on the XP home disc. So i can't get into the computer at all to start diagnosing the fault, the only clue I have is the error message, and after searching the internet I haven't found much enlightenment from that yet.
    If you can help me out or suggest where to search it would be much appreciated.
    Thx

  • IPod Error Message: "The disk could not be read from or written to."

    Hello!
    I was syncing my sister's video iPod (30GB) and this error message pops up "Attempting to copy to the disk. "SARAH'S IPO" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    I have restored it three times already, but once it starts putting the music and files back onto the iPod it pops up with that error message. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes and iPod software available. My OS is Windows XP.
    Is this something serious? Will I be able to fix it myself or will I need to send it in to be fixed by Apple? Will that be expensive? We didn’t get the Apple replacement plan. D=
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. ^_^

    Okay I went thru that entire list and here's what I got...
    (1) My OS is XP and is running fine.
    (2) I've updated my windows
    (3) I don't know of any software that might be interfering.
    (4) There are no damaged files.
    (5) My Windows hard-drive is not damaged and I've tried restoring my iPod's disk thru iTunes but it still doesn't work.
    (6) I don't have an iPod photo and I can't find the folder to delete the cache if if I did.
    (7) The USB cord is firmly connected into my USB port and my iPod
    (8) My music is on my external hard-drive so I need to keep 3rd-party hardware connected
    (9) I will try another USB cord to see if that works.
    Is there anything else that I can do? Can Apple fix this?
    Please let me know.

  • IPod Touch will no longer sync...error message.

    For some reason my older iPod Touch without a camera on it will not sync any more and I am getting an error message saying this iPod cannot be synced. Now I had it set up to sync over Wi-Fi and I would occasionally hook up to the computer with the cable and got error messages on both. Now I read something about removing the SC Info Folder. If I do that will that mess things up with syncing my iPhone? 

    What is the exact wording of the error message?

  • Error Message: Need to purge Cache in Adobe Bridge CC (on PC)

    I tried purging using Adobe Bridge by going to Edit/Preferences/Cache then purging, but it becomes non responsive.  The error message said the problem files were at Users/(my user name)/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/BridgeCC/Cache.   There are 4 files in there that are taking up 124 GB!  Can I simply delete these files or will it corrupt my regular files?  I tried doing as some other forums suggested and hold the ALT key down when opening Bridge before purging, but no luck.

    Yes, you can delete the cache files manually,  Just be advised that Bridge will become very, very slow until it finishes rebuilding its caches.  Depending on your files, that can take a few minutes or several hours.
    A good way of doing it is at night, so you can do it before going to bed and let Bridge rebuild caches overnight.
    If you can, save the cache files before deleting them to an external drive, so that you'll have them as backup if something goes wrong.
