Encore: vobulator BlockPlanner error 217

Hello,
I've been building a project in Encore for days and finally went to build a DVD today, and after all the transcoding, when it went to write on the disc, it failed with the following message:
internal software error: .\vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp, line 217
Anyone have experience/suggestions?
Thanks,
Don
I am using a Gateway 4200 with quad core 3.2 Ghz processors AMD, 8 GB of RAM, Windows VISTA and a GeForce 9500T video card, also over 59 Gigs of free space on my hard drive.

In this case, Sonic refers to the creator of the authoring modules, licensed by Adobe for use in Encore. Sonic owns the rights to almost everything to do with authoring. Encore is based on the Sonic Authorcore, which is modular, and is hidden behind Encore's abstraction layer - what we see in the GUI, which interfaces with that Sonic Authorcore.
Hope that this explains things a bit better. The "Vobulator BlockPlanner" is one of those Sonic modules. It is the module that takes your Assets and your navigational instructions and does the "roadmap" for your DVD-Video, which will be a VIDEO_TS folder with your VOB "containers" and the IFO and BUP files - the heart and soul of a DVD-Video. Something is wrong with your Project, and the Vobulator BlockPlanner cannot get your Project's material into a DVD-compliant form.
If you can tell us more about the Project and your Assets, someone can likely offer suggestions. IIRC, from another thread, you have several AV Timelines and some SlideShows. Please re-list those details here, so that others can see the layout and can comment on what might be going amiss.
Good luck,
Hunt

Slide Show ERROR, Internal software\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\.cpp Line 217

I'm putting together a slide show DVD. There are a total of 7 slide shows containing 480 pictures. All pictures are jpg's about 1000X1600 pixels and 500KB-700KB each. I have 3 menus for navigation. Not all of the chapter menu buttons point to a "slide show", some of them point to a picture inside certain slide shows according to my client's requests. (example, slide show 1 contains 70 pictures. Chapter 1 points to "slide show 1" Chapter 2 points to "slide show 1 photo 50"). All slide shows are linked so that when the first slide show is over, it will automatically "end action" to the next slide show etc... All my settings are typical. NTSC 4:3 SD 720X480 progressive.
There are NO video files in my DVD at all. No timelines at all. No audio at all.
The Symptoms/problem that I'm getting is this, when I try to Preview my DVD and ALSO when I try to build my DVD, the build will go through and "build the slide shows" then after it does that, this will come up
I've read some of the previous posts (one of them is in French for cryin out loud. Had to use Bing translator and it sounds all weird). What I can gather is this,
Re: internal software error: .\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp, line 217
I found out it was due to selecting an image file as the video layer
in a menu, causes the error everytime. I just paste the image in with
'edit in photoshop' instead now. But thanks."
Another person said just about the same thing... The only problem is, I have no idea what this means. I don't know what it means to "select an image file as the video layer in a menu..."
Hardware/software is as follows:
custom build:
i5 processor (4 core) 2.6ghz
8 GB RAM 1333MHz
300GB C: drive (2X150 GB 10K RPM Raptors)
1.2TB D: drive (2X7,200 RPM 640GB WD's)
Burner is LG Super multi
secondary burner is Sony Commercial Blu-Ray burner
Video card is Saphire Build (Radeon 5450 PCI-E 16X)
Windows 7 X64 Pro
All Adobe is CS5 Production package.
If I'm leaving anything out, please let me know.
HELP! and Thanks. I'd really love to fix this without rebuilding the whole DVD. Take long time.

Premiere Elements 9: Softwarefehler: .\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp.Zeile215

Beim Freigeben meines Projektes auf DVD wollte ich in einen 4,7 GB Ordner speichern um dann DVDs zu brennen, aber es erscheint immer wieder die oben genannte Fehlermeldung:
Softwarefehler: .\Vobulator\BlockPlanner\BlockPlanner.cpp.Zeile215
der Fortschrittsbalken bleibt auf 28%
Habe nur Start- und Stoppmarker gesetzt und brenne mit Absicht in den Ordner, da direktes Brennen noch nie funktionierte. Das Video lässt sich als Computervideo (mpeg) ausgeben, aber da reicht mir die Qualität nicht, da Skifahren nunmal schnell ist ...
Vielleicht hat noch jemand einen Tipp, dür den ich dankbar wäre!

Upon release of my project to DVD I wanted to save a 4.7GB folder and then burn DVDs, but it appears again and again the above error message:
Software Error:. \ Vobulator \ block Planner \ BlockPlanner.cpp.Zeile215
the progress bar remains at 28%
I just start and stop markers and set on fire on purpose in the folder, since direct burning has never worked. The video can be used as computer video (mpeg) issue, but since I do not have enough quality because skiing is now times fast ...
Maybe someone has a tip, droughts I would be grateful!

Bezüglich Ihrer burn to folder

Es ist sehr wahrscheinlich, dass Sie eine Stop-Marker am Ende der Timeline oder dem Abstand der Timeline-Marker platziert ist zu nah.
Bitte überprüfen Sie diese Möglichkeiten.
Ich hatte schwer mit dem Google Translate, so dass ich hoffe, dass ich Ihre Nachricht in Deutsch korrekt interpretiert.
Vielen Dank.

Regarding your burn to folder
Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1
It is very likely that you have placed a Stop Marker at the end of your Timeline or the spacing of your Timeline markers is too close.
Please check out those possibilities.
I had difficult with the Google Translate, so I hope that I have interpreted your message in German correctly.

PPro6 to Encore "internal software" error

I encoded in PPro6 and then imported an mpeg2 project as a timeline from PPro6 into Encore. When I try to burn a DVD, I get an error message: PGC "" has an error at 00;00;00;00. Internal software error: 50, line "" Info: name = "", ref= Bpgc, time = 00;00;00;00;00.
The project was fully rendered in PPro. I've re-exported 3 times, and it happens every time.
I did a search on the Forum, and found one other person who had this problem, but their problem turned out to be with their audio. My project has no audio at all. Just video.
Thank you for any help/ideas/suggestions you may have! I'm totally flummoxed.

The .xmpses file is an xml (type) file.
Rename the file .xmpses.old and the .xmp renamed as .xmp.old (I don't recall for sure whether there was ever any benefit to renaming the .xmp file. We want to maximize the chances that it works, so rename both.)
Can I just say Stan I am so so grateful for this post. So easy to do and solved my problem!!! I was beyond fed up with the whole thing. After having such problems with Dynamic Link causing slight flickering in my videos I have tried to go back to Exporting with my own settings for Encore in CS6 but found it caused so many more problems than it ever did in previous versions of the programmes. I tried exporting the sequences in so many different ways, different bit rates, including Encore chaptering before Encore and even nesting. Had so many different errors like 52102, line 332 and this PGC error was the final one and my biggest problem. Cannot believe how simple it was. I normally chapter within Encore anyway so changing a little file name of the other 2 connected files of my sequence really was no bother at all.
I honestly think this is the answer to many of the problems that I have had in Encore as the errors although in different forms, more often than not, seem to be chapter related.
it is now 1.45am and because of you I can now go to bed to get up and film another event in the morning. CHEERS! (don't worry I'm a girl lol)

Runtime Error 217 after GroupWise closes (C# C3PO)

Hello,
I made a C3PO with C#, everything works fine until i close the GroupWise Client (8.0.2, Win 7 , 32 Bit). 2 seconds after closing, I get a GroupWise-MessageBox: 'Runtime Error 217'.
The Windows Event Log says the error occured in the Kernelbase.dll.
Did anyone have this error some time and knows how to fix this?

Hi Sankar,
Clearly RFC destination WORKFLOW_LOCAL_250 doesnot exist. But please don't create it directly using Sm59.
Log into client 250 and go to transaction SWU3. Here you will get option for creating RFC destination making use of user WF-BATCH. In case there is workflow expert in your project take his help.
Once this is done this dump should not come.

Encore CS3 runtime error in Vista

Hi guys. Just installed CS3 Production and everything installed fine. Premiere and AE work but when I go boot up Encore I get the "C++ Runtime Error" message. I installed and re installed but still the same when I try and get into Encore. My system is a core 2 quad with 2 gig of ram and I am running Windows Vista Business.

Hi,
This is a bizarre one, everything is working fine then suddenly when I go to build a project I get a transcoding error, I search the forums and the suggestions are to reinstall which I do. Now I can't even launch Encore because I get a runtime error when the loading screen (generic encore dvd.exe error). The loading screen is stuck on loading opacity.AEX.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times now (both with deleting preferences and any registry entries and without) but with no luck. I've also tried uninstalling my AV/Firewalls but without success. I've searched the forums but can't find anything relating to it.
My system is;
Vista Ultimate (32-Bit)(Clean install)
P4 2.4 800Mhz FSB
2Gb RAM
2x 500Gb HD
Soundblaster Audigy
Nvidia Geforce 6800GT
My apologies if I've missed anything off.
Any suggestions?

Doug

Iexplore.exe - Application error (0x0eedfade) Runtime error 217

I have had error messages appear on my screen as I begin to shut it down. The first says: Iexplore.exe -Application error (0x0eedfade) 0x7c812a5b and the second says: Runtime error 217 at 0473F48E
What do they mean?
Yesterday my notebook shut down in the middle of me using it and then whenever I tried to re-start it again (even in safe mode) it shut down again before I got the chance. Today I've managed to restart the computer but I did have the same messages appear earlier today as I was shuting down the computer.

Hi
It looks like the Microsoft internet explorer has caused an error.
I found somewhere an advice that this could happen after IE 7 update and Norton Antivir application.
Did you remove the Norton antivirus???
I have noticed that this software makes the notebook slower. I used this several months ago. Not Im using the Freeware tool called Antivir. Its great and for free!!!
After Norton uninstalling please be sure that all files were removed!!!! The Norton Removal Tool can helps

Encore CS3 - Build error: "internal software error"

Hi All,
I'm fairly new to Encore but I've spend a lot of time figuring out how it works to the point that I think I've got it (menus, links, etc). Here's my problem:
I've exported a video with chapter points from Premiere CS3 into Encore (no problems). I've created all the menues and links to their respective chapters in Encore (no problems). I "checked" the video. Clean - no errors. I've "previewed" the vidoe in Encore - works perfectly. However, when I go to "build" the video, I get the following error in a pop-up window:
"PGC "Master" has an error at 00;43;38:01. internal software error: %0, line Master - PGC Info: name = Master, ref = Fpgc, time = 00;43;38:01"
"Master" is the name of the timeline that I have imported into Encore from Premiere.
In this case, the time (00;43;38:01) is the very last frame of video.
I've tried building both directly to a DVD burner and just creating a DVD image. Both give me the same error. I've also tried the process by 1) exporting from Premiere to Encore directly and also exporting from Premiere to an MPEG2 file saved on the desktop and then importing that into Encore. Same error, however, the time of the error is different (in one case, the time of the error was some time during the timeline, not the end or beginning).
Finally, a couple of weeks ago during my "learning process" I created a very simple timeline in Premiere with no chapters, exported to Encore and burned it. No problems with that.
Oh, I'm running a 4 year old IBM T41 laptop w/ 2GB of memory. Although not the fastest, I haven't run into any h/w or s/w related issues...yet. I just doesn't scream.
Can anyone provide help here? I'm STUMPED!!
Thanks,

Some of us experience this pgc error (only in CS3) and have found no real solution. There are a variety of workarounds. I believe the most persistent version is the result of some unidentified combination of hardware and software.
I believe that there are 3 variations, and they may have different implications: timelines (your issue), motion menus, and slideshows.
Copies of projects and assets taken to a machine/user who does not experience the error work fine. Some users have done a ridiculous amount of testing (I'm one), and some have declared a solution (I am not one, and believe there are probably multiple causes). Since CS4 is out, I doubt we will ever see any further resolution, and, since the problem can not be reliably repeated in a new project with new assets, no "bug" was ever demonstrated.
The first rule is to use flawless workflow. (I don't find a link right off to Neil Wilkes' and Jeff Bellune's descriptions, but one example is never changing assets with Encore closed.) But I have instances in which I was perfect (ha, ha), and the error occurred.
In most instances, one or more workarounds can be used. If you used a muxed file, do it again with demuxed. If you used files that were in the same folder as the xmpses files (the files premiere creates to carry project/chapter info), delete the files other than the m2v and wav and reimport the asset as a timeline. (You will have to redo the chapter markers. It is best to delete the old file from the project, and have the newly imported file renamed. However, I have done it various ways successfully.) If you have long file names with spaces, shorten and remove the spaces.
You report one version of the error in which the time location is in the middle of the asset and not a frame or two from the end. This is not common for the persistent version of this error, and raises the question as to whether there is an actual problem in your asset.

Runtime Error 217 when trying to Record

I am using Captivate 4 on Windows XP. When I hit the Record button in Cap 4, a microphone icon displays and counts down 3-2-1, then runtime error 217 displays. Cap 4 then crashes.
I am not recording audio for this project. I am recording FMR and in Edit > Preferences > Full Motion Recording I have the Working Folder set to C:\Test.
Not sure why Cap 4 is doing this.
Can anyone make any suggestions to help me?

Adobe Encore. Hardware error (Sense Code 52100).

I tried to output a dvd and received the following error:Adobe Encore. Hardware error (Sense Code 52100). Please contact the hardware manufacturerer for more information.

Hardware errors are usually two things... bad media (try a different brand of disc) or a bad drive
A workaround... and to test your media and hardware
Set your Encore DVD/BluRay output to an ISO file or to a folder on your hard drive and then use the FREE Imgburn to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Read http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1322583 for notes on installing Imgburn WITHOUT any toolbar add-ons... Set Imgburn to use the slowest burn speed your drive and media will use... I set my burn speed to 1x and let Imgburn adjust to the actual minimum

Ok - I see that I have 14 views, but no replies -
I'm going to share a work-around that is so far working for me... when I start a new recording project, if I choose demonstration mode TOGETHER with what I really want to record ( Assessment, Training or Custom simulation), the program does not crash. I end up with two copies of the recording (demo and the other), but I can then open the other recording and work with it.
It seems a silly way to have to do things, but it works. So - for those of you having the same problem as I am, try it.

Encore CS4 bluray error: fatal error, code "6" Internal error m_ptsOfNextGOPis empty

I am using Encore CS4 4.0.1 (the latest version from what I can see) on Mac OSX 10.6.3
I am on a Mac Pro 1,1 with 2 2GHz Xeon Dual Core Processors
I have 5 GB of Ram
The Mac has the standard Nvidia 7300GT.
I have successfully created several BD and DVDs and nothing has changed.
I have a 1080 50i BD h.264 project with 2 hour 37 minute timeline and I am looking to create an h.264 BD 25 image. The project has two menus: a main menu with two buttons and a chapter selection menu with 7 buttons. Check project reveals no issues with anything.
I have searched the forum and tried the various solutions I found such as disc name, etc. The name is all in capitals with no spaces.
I googled and found msxml problems/solutions and other such things related to windows that do not apply to me as I am on Mac.
I get the following error at the very end of the build process:
Encore CS4 bluray error: fatal error, code "6" Internal error m_ptsOfNextGOPis empty
Any ideas? Hope I gave enough information. Thanks in advance

I do not know exactly what the problem was with the menu. I am assuming the menu was the problem because when I created a new encore project with the same video, audio and photo assets but with new menus there was no problem. I think that at the time I read there some people were having a problem with the template I originally used for my menus so I simply built a new menu from scratch in PS CS3. I think the original menu was party menu hd.
Sorry if that is vague but it worked so I did not look any further into the problem and I have not had any recurrence.
