Encore DVD 2.0 "Timeline has a (Hpgc) error at 00:00:00:00

Question

System: Win XP, 1GB RAM etc. I've used Encore DVD 2 for 3 years, never had this error message:
"Timeline has an error at 00:00:00:00.
PGC Error - PGC Info - name= (Name of Timeline) ref= Hpgc, time= 00:00:00:00"
Check project was initially fine. I rebuilt entire project, same error. But Checking project, this time round, said it was an AUDIO error.
Transcoding all works, then the error appears at the Start of the actual build.
Help, I have 30 orders for this DVD, and nothing to show!

@Stanley,
Thank you for some more input on the PGC Error mess, like the "H" being a designator.
@Raymond,
John's rec. for G-Spot is a good one. I use this about every week, and sometimes on many files in a day - depending on what client's load onto my desk. This little freeware program will do many things, but probably the most important is to tell you exactly what your AV (Audio/Video) file consists of, which CODECs are used for the Audio and the Video and whether your system has them installed.
As Stanley points out, MPG is not available (in or out) in the Premiere Trial version. Still, you should be able to File>Export>Movie and select, first Video (only, non-muxed) DV-AVI. Then do this again, but select Audio (only, non-muxed) PCM-WAV. This will give you elemental streams.
In Encore, Import_As_Timeline, your DV-AVI, and Import_As_Asset, your WAV. Drag your WAV to the Timeline.
Now, as the trial version does not allow any use of the MPG CODEC (licensing restrictions on the trial ONLY), you can't burn to DVD, which is MPEG-2, but you can Preview. You can also explore building a DVD with Menus, etc., you just cannot burn to folder, disc, etc., until you get the full version.
I have never had a PGC Error, nor have I ever seen a "Mismatched Audio" error. I tried to put much thought into the two PGC Error threads, but do not think I was able to help, at all. Also, most subscribers just posted, "yeah, me too," and never came back to answer anyone's questions. I also agree with Stanley, that most errors occurred well within the Project's Timeline, not at the beginning. I also agree with Stanley's suggestion to look at Jeff's and Neil's comments in those two threads. If noting else, their suggestions on how to work with Encore will give you a nice education.
Good luck,
Hunt
[Edit] Re-reading this thread, I think I warned Raymond about a moot point. Raymond, if you have Encore2, of course you can burn a DVD. I saw the mention of "trial," and jumped to the conclusion that you had the trial of CS3 *only* which would not allow you to use EncoreCS3 for a burn operation. Obviously, the trial of the Premiere side will preclude your Exporting in MPG, and also preclude Exporting Audio with the SurCode Dolby Digital AC3 encoder (separate purchase from Minnetonka, but a great plug-in if you do Surround 5.1 Sound). Please pardon my warnings, and caveats, if you have Encore2.
Also, the Check Project function is mainly checking navigation within the DVD specs, and I've never seen any Asset errors from it. Maybe I just have not had any???? Still, good luck!
