Exporting to Encore - build errors - ? "end action" and "Title remote"

Hello,
When I choose to export to encore, I and when it is time to build the DVD, it tells me I have 2 errors:
- End action not set
- Title remote not set
Why are these errors appearing, does anyone know ?
What I am doing, is exporting a portion of my timeline to encore, when the DVD is ready to be burnt, the DVD tray opens, I then cancel the process because I don't wish to burn to DVD, and then from there, I press "build" which will build the .vobs directly to the hard drive. It is then, after pressing "build" that I get the 2 errors above.
Any help is much appreciated.
Dave.

You can also learn about them by reading the Encore manual or Help file.

Encore's (cs5) 'end action'- more like 'no action'

anyone know of issues with CS5 Encore's end action not working. I've linked my end action from chapter one to chapter two, etc and/or end actioned my time lines in many trial and always errors ways. I can't seem to get passed the second chapter before it links to Main menu page.
Also, getting a runtime error when trying to open Encore...??

End actions work fine for me in CS5.
I am not using the link one chapter to another workflow, however.
This method is often paired with overrides; do you have any set?

Adobe Encore Build Error and Crash

Here is what is happening; I have a BluRay project built and ready to export. I send it to build to a Bluray disk; it gets through menu setup and starts loading everything in. At first when it was inporting the 'silent.ac3' file it would crash the program. So I went in and placed audio in all areas that did not have audio yet. (I am waiting for final audio and needed to do a build for testing functionality). After placing audio I do a build and it crashes out on random AC3 files now.
Does anyone know a solution to this issue?

Could be either way. Actually, sometimes Encore is not able to handle the mismatch in audio and video duration and that is why it causes a crash or some other error.
Try matching the duration and then build. Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks,

Build Error: Append image and delete if possible.vi

Good morning,
I'm using LabVIEW 9.0 with the application builder and when I attempt to build my application I receive this error:
An error occurred while saving the following file:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\printing\ReportDocExtensions.llb\Standard Report\Append image and delete if possible.vi
Invoke Node in AB_Source_VI.lvclass:Close_Reference.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Engine_Build.vi->AB_Build_Invoke.vi->AB_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller
<APPEND>
Method Name: <b>Save:Target Instrument</b>
I did some research and this seems to be related to saving a front panel image to an HTML file. I'm not storing the front panel image at all, nor am I storing anything to an HTML file, only Excel.
Just in case I had somehow inadvertently added it to my project (this is my first LabVIEW project and I've made all kinds of mistakes, haha) I performed a search of my project for "Append image and delete if possible.vi" and it was not found.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm not sure what other information I should post here, please let me know if I missed something.
Thanks!
Solved!

Dear Logan,
This error occurs in the saving process (before the build is complete). In the details section says:
Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:
Error 6 occurred at AB_Source_VI.lvclass:Close_Reference.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_EXE.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_Engine_Build.vi -> AB_Build_Invoke.vi -> AB_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: Generic file I/O error.
=========================
NI-488: I/O operation aborted.
I repaired my LV2009 instalation and doesn't worked. The last thing i'll do is to reinstall all my NI software . I'll spend a whole day doing that.

Rolling End Credit and Title Cards

I have a rolling end credit which requires rendering. After the render it looks like crap. It's distorted, blurry, pixely. What am I doing wrong or what other steps can I take in FCP to create a clean rolling end credit.
J

Make sure you're viewing it on an external monitor for the format you're outputting to (e.g. an NTSC monitor for DV.)
Titles always look horrid in the FCP windows, especially if you're viewing at "Fit to Screen" size rather than 100%.

I miss the export to encore /w no menu we had in CS3.

Hi all,
I don't know why adobe can't just leave well enough alone...
They have moved exporting to Encore into the Dynamic links menu option in Permiere CS4 and there appears to be no way to select direct to disc with no menu or be able to alter settings before clicking ok like you use to in CS3. You get dumped into Encore and have to set a few links before you can build a simple play dvd.
Am i missing something?

When you try to build the dvd - an error message pops up telling you that the end action and title remote links are not set. Yes I can ignore them and continue to build but its just one more thing to snag you. It used to be automatic - done! And if i wanted to tweak the format settings before starting encore - BAM - done!
What's wrong with having a simple one button option in "export to encore" to automatically create a direct play no menu dvd with no muss or fuss?
I think someone in the adobe design lab has too much time on their hands or maybe could use a little shock treatment to snap them back into reality.

VERY New to Encore....End Action Not Set?

I just upgraded (today) to Premiere CS5. I've been able to get to the point of burning my project and "Check Project" found an error. It was "End Action not set" for my sequence. I'm not 100% what this means (and a search turned up 370 items, leaving me overwhelmed).
Is it asking what I want to happen after the last chapter in the sequence does (like return to the Menu default) or is it asking me what will follow after playing chapter one in my sequence? I really doubt it is the last option but seeing as it is showing a still form a scene from chapter one I want to be sure that I link the correct thing from the get go.
Don't bash me, I know I'm stupid!

In the Check Project Message box, Dbl-click on that error/warning message, so that you can see exactly where it found the issue.
In this case, there is an Asset, probably a Timeline, with no End Action set. This End Action tells the DVD player what to do next, like Return to Last Menu. Note: you can have an End Action on several different Assets, like Playlists and Chapter Playlists. Also note: if one has a Playlist with an End Action, and in that Playlist are Timelines with their own End Actions, the End Action of the Playlist takes precedence, and Check Project will issue a warning message (looks like an error message, but is just informing you of this precedence) to that effect. So long as that is what you want, just ignore that notification.
End Actions tell the DVD player what to do next. As mentioned above, it could be to Return to Last Menu, it could be to Go to another Menu, and you can even, with Specify Link and the drop-down, tell it to go to a Menu with a particular Button highlighted. It could also be used to make a Timeline Loop, where you would set its End Action back to the beginning of that Timeline. You could also set one Timeline's End Action to go to another Timeline. Lots of possibilities.
Remember that I told you Encore was more involved, than PrE's semi-auto authoring. Do not be overwhelmed, but just take it slowly. Soon, when you get the "lay of the land" down, you will greatly appreciate the new power and control that you have. Being overwhelmed will be replaced by great joy, and you will feel like a god.
I would like to make one recommendation, and you WILL thank me later: Jeff Bellune wrote a great book, The Focal Easy Guide to Adobe EncoreDVD 2.0, Focal Press, ISBN 0-240-52004-1. Do not be put off by the title and the version, EncoreDVD 2.0 (I know you have CS5). Everything in that book applies 100% to Encore CS5. Now, CS5 has added some "stuff," that will NOT be in the book, but this forum and the Help files will step you though those. Jeff's book will take you through all of the aspects of Encore and navigating the DVD-specs. He'll also teach you how to create illusions, that seem to override the DVD-specs. Of course we cannot do that, but the user will think that we have. This book will soon become your go-to for almost everything in Encore.
Good luck,
Hunt

'Abnormal condition' whenever i try to click on End Action selection button

Cannot choose an End Action or Menu Remote action for anything as this message comes up every time I try to select, in any context (I have tried on several different timelines in different places).
Full message is 'Sorry, an abnormal condition has been detected. Before quitting, you have one chance to save your project (don't use the same name as the original).

I am finding I am getting the same error.
I have a single 23Gb file (created in Premiere) with Chapter points created and named in Encore. Chapter playlists work for start point for menus but when I try to select an end action (or any action on the Properties box for that matter) I get the same error as JXT.
I rebuilt the DVD again, mostly from scratch but using the same menus. Same error. I built it with new menus (thinking some sort of corruption) but same error. If I could type the end action that would be a good workaround, but you can't.
Any ideas????

End action vs Override

Encore CS4: I'm confused on the override function. Page 146 of the manual says:
"... If the viewer wants to play the clips individually, you can make the player to return to the main menu after playing a single timeline. For achieving this, you create separate buttons for each timeline. Then you link each button to its individual timeline and set the override for the link..."
I only have one timeline and several chapter makers. Should I be able to substitute "Chaper Makers" for timeline in the above?
For example, I have one time line with Chapter markers A, B, C, D, E
1st menu option is "Play All" and plays A-E in order.
"Play A" button plays A then goes back to menu. Same for B, and D button.
"Play C' button plays C chapter then E (since they are related) then goes back to menu.
I have use chapter playlists in the past but can this be accomplished using end actions and overrides?

Thanks, that's what I thought. Playlists are easier even though they need a few more mouse clicks.
(Not Blu-Ray).

Chapter playlist end action not working right

Using Encore CS4 I have created nine sub-menus and each one contains a Chapter Playlist assigned to a button. The submenu's are titled by year starting with 2002. The problem I am having is that no matter what I set the end action or override to all the sub-menus return to the 2002 sub-menu. I have tried all the options for end action and override: return here, stop, link back to that same years sub-menu, stop, return to last menu and they all return me to the 2002 sub-menu.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Please outline how you want the finished DVD to behave. You'll help yourself out *a lot* if you hand-draw (with pencil and paper) a flowchart that shows how you want the audience to get from here to there and back again.
Until you do that, you will struggle with your disc's navigation.
That said, there are always several ways to achieve your navigation goals. Your existing design may work once all of the overrides are removed. You still haven't described what happens when you change all of the overrides in the project to Not Set.

End action doesn't work

Okay, it doesn't matter what I do end action doesn't work. Here's the situation. I have three timelines. The Title for starting, the main video, and the credits rolling at thend. When the Title timeline is done playing at the end, it should go to the main video and the main video timeline is done, it should go to the credits but it's not working. In each of the End action of three timelines, I did specify where it should go next. But this doesn't work. So I try to specify where it should go next on the End Action of the last chapter for three timeline but that doens't work either. So I tried specify in the last chapter and also the timeline end action and nothing changes during preview. Please help.

Stupid question:- what exactly does the override do? Override the remote control action, or the end action or both?
Linking each chapter to the next, and the next timeline, allows for the whole project to play continuously, but the end action on the final chapter is always messing things up.

Exporting to encore dvd with trial version of PPro CS3

My question:
Are we supposed to be able to use Encore DVD with the trial version of PPro CS3?
If so, then what are the proper steps?
Background:
i have downloaded a trial version of PPro CS3. I have wanted to check out the Encore DVD maker that now is included with the PPro. However, when i attempt to export a timeline to Encore, the 'export to encore' is not active. In other words, i see the words 'export to encore' but they are faded and thus the link to it is 'dead'.

Trial does not with any flavor of MPEG due to license restrictions
You may import-edit-export DV AVI type 2
Encore is not activated until you pay and convert the demo to real
Read the FAQ article
Converting Download Trial to Registered
(read subject
How do I convert a trial version to a version for unrestricted use?)

Error message encore cs5 end action can't execute on the final chapter point

Dvd plays great. Exported it as a mpeg 2-dvd, video only. Audio separate as a .wav. imported video as a timeline, audio as an asset. Video is not transcoded.
But I have a sub menu, with 6 chapter markers. I check the project and I get this: "error message encore cs5 end action can't execute on the final chapter point"
Do I need to make a chapter playlist? Because that gave me a "orphaned playlist" error message.
I selected the last chapter masker and had the end action go to the sub menu.
Thanks!

Saw a previous thread where bill hunt said it ignore it and try to burn a copy.

In Encore I get an error in the check project window of "can't execute end action because of final chapter marker"

I have imported a project to Encore and while it worked the first time, this time I get an error in the check project winder of can't execute chapter 2 end action because of final end marker? I have two different sections that have buttons on the menu. When you get to the end of the first sequence I need it to go back to the menu and it is saying that it can't because of the end action on the final marker.

The 'unable to locate' message means that you don't have those music files on that computer, or that they are not where iTunes is expecting them to be. How did you get the entries for those tracks in your new computer's iTunes ?
If you still have your old computer then you can try copying them over again : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
You may also be able to re-download them from the store (checking for available downloads only checks for items that have not yet been downloaded, not for past purchases) via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (re-downloading music isn't possible in all countries). You may need to delete them form your library first (where you are getting the 'unable to locate' message), otherwise iTunes will assume that you still have them somewhere and won't let you re-download them.

Encore CS3 First Play and End Action problems

I have one menu, one timeline. I'm trying to have the DVD start with the menu for about 2 minutes, the length of the audio asset linked to, then start the first chapter of the timeline. No overrides used in the project.
First Play of the disc: set to the default menu.
End action of the menu: set to first chapter of timeline.
Menu-motion: Audio linked to an audio asset, duration about 2 minutes.
In Encore DVD 2.0 this was trivial and worked. Not in CS3!
Most of the time it loops the menu indefinitely. Sometimes it will loop twice, then start the chapter.
Preview from the menu works. Preview from the disc doesn't, nor the final DVD burn. I've seen this was discussed here before, I just can't find the topic.
Any fixes?
Thanks

Johnathan,
Tell us more about your Assets on this Play First Timeline. What are the files, format, Duration, etc.? Is this file muxed, or elemental streams? The greater the detail, the better.
I have not seen the behavior that you observe, hence my questions.
Hunt
