GRRR! "There was an error during movie encoding"

I can't seem to compile and burn a DVD to save my life with iDVD. I have a video that I created and exported using iMovie and two shorter ones created in Photoshop CS6 — all three are the same encoding: 1920 x 1080, H.264, AAC, Color profile: HD (1-1-1). The one exported with iMovie is a .mov file and the other two are .mp4 files — none of them with any sort of copyright/permissions protection on them.
iDVD previews them all just fine, but EVERY SINGLE TIME I go to try and burn a DVD it gives me the above error message, "Encoding Video: There was an error during movie encoding" which tells me absolutely nothing. This might not stress me out so much if it were just a personal project, but rather it's for a friend's wedding that I shot and iDVD's failure to do a basic thing like encode video is really ticking me off.
I tried to localize the issue by trying to burn just the .mov file and then just one of the .m4v files — and have found it chokes on m4v files. Why is this so??
If I'm doing something wrong, the error message should give me a little more feedback than just "oh there was an error."

Hi
We are only Users - trying to help other users - rarely Apple or program developer drop in for a look so I would send feedback here
• www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html
BUT as Apple discarded the product in all - can not even be bought any more - any further development is most certainly never to be.
But what You feed iDVD matters and - You and so many more has the idea that .mov or .m4v etc are movie formats/codecs - they are not - only containers - so to figure out what You give iDVD You need to find what's in them. I do like this
• Open them in QuickTime Player
• here open Inspector [cmd+I]
• read - Video Format/Codec: nnnnnnn
What does it say and in what frame rate (fps) ?
iDVD can only do good (very good) DVDs when feed
25 or 29.97 fps
interlaced SD-Video
So by feeding it 1920x1080 24fps - to make a NTSC (29.97fps) DVD - result will be very BAD. Conversion is of need. I use following programs to do this
• Frame Rate - JES_Deinterlacer
• MPEG Streamclip
• QuickTime 7.6 + Pro-upgrade

This error keeps oming up when trying to burn a DVD in idvd: "There was an error during rendering/encoding of the menus/slideshows. The burning process has been canceled."

I've deleted encoded materials, and still no luck. What else can I try? I am using idvd 7.1.2. The slide show was created in imovie.

Hi
How did You go from iMovie to iDVD ?
I never use "Share/Export to iDVD" as the result will be bad and especially so if photos are used and NO Ken Burns effect is used.
I do "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (no HD or other sizes) And in iDVD I import it from Media button / Movies.
• Trash iDVD pref. file

Error during movie encoding - tried all the common things, any suggestions?

HI, Attempting to burn a DVD from iDVD 7.11
I'm getting the "Encoding Error: There was an error during movie encoding" dialogue at the end of an attempted burn. Tried several times and many of the suggestions already on the forum
I have "shared" the movie from iMovie. When it first opens iDVD I have to change the default setting of "best Performance" to "Professional Quality" and the video mode to PAL (I'm in Australia). I change it both in the preferences pane (a change which seems to be ignored when I restart the program) and in the project info.
- I'm trying just to make a disc image, but haven't got past this first step to getting it to DVD...
- There is only the movie in my project (I've not added audio or pics in iDVD)
- I've used the "Modern" theme and deleted the default drop zones and menu audio,
- I've checked the chapter markers are not at the start of the movie or near any transitions,
- There are no special characters in the titles,
- All titles and menus are within the TV safe zone,
- I've deleted the com.apple.iMovie.plst files and emptied trash,
- I've tried deleting encoded assets,
- Repaired permissions, restarted the computer, checked for updated software,
- (tried a "safe boot" as someone suggested somewhere, but the program couldn't find the movie or audio files),
- I have 660GB free on the main hard drive,
- I've disconnected external drives,
- no error appear in map view,
- I preview the project and all appears fine,
The original footage was filmed for me. I was given a DVD which I ripped into an MP4, import into iMovie, edited the audio, added AIFF audio, added a jpeg image and 2 transitions. (Unfortunately the audio on the original I was given is unusable, else I could just copy the DVD I was given.)
So if anyone has further suggestions as to what might resolve this issue, please let me know!

Thanks for your post F, much appreciated
The project is 123 minutes, 4.16GB and it's being broadcast on TV, so I need max quality I can get (without spending money!)
I think I have sort of solved the problem - addressing what you've identified in a slightly different way.
Since my previous post, I noticed that clicking on the "Media" tab in the side pane, and selecting "Movies", my project was listed, but when I clicked on it, rather than the thumbnail I get on other movies I've processed, I got this text:
"This iMovie project can't be used because it hasn't been prepared for sharing yet. To prepare it for sharing, open it in iMovie and choose Share > Media Browser.... "
I did that (7 hours processing) then successfully created the disc image (2 hours processing). I have now burnt the DVD using disc utility (1 hour processing). It plays OK on the computer, but I'll need to check it on a normal player before marking this as thread solved (I don't have one here at home).
Unfortunately somewhere in all this processing the video has significantly lost quality. I thought I'd used all the highest quality setting, but will have to go back and check each step again. Unless someone reading this post has noticed anything I've done so far that would compromise video quality. The audio is fine - which for this project is the most important aspect.
So in regard to my initial problem; it seems there is a problem in iDVD not recognising/remembering the set preferences when using the "Share > iDVD " function in iMovie.
To summarise my solution for anyone else who experiences the same issue,
When sending a project from iMovie using "Share > iDVD " it seems you must also choose "Share > Media Browser.... "
This may be specific only to the case where PAL is required.
PS
I should also note, incase it made any difference, that I found the default headings in the chapter menus had dashes in them (i.e. it defaults to "Scenes 1 - 6", so I changed to "Scenes 1 to 6"). The only other modification I made since my original post was using stills instead of moving thumbnails for the chapter selection.

?¿There was an error during muxing preparation (project conversion).?¿

*There was an error during muxing preparation (project conversion).*
can anyone elaborate on this?

Same thing just happened to me. I re-output my quicktime movie with chapter markers turned off. You probably have a chapter mark set too close to the beginning, end or near a transition. I didn't have time to futz with the markers so I just turned them off.
Muxing stands for multiplexing. It's when iDVD takes all the data layers, video, audio etc. and multiplexes them into one data stream. When you play the dvd in your player that one data stream is DE-Muxed back into the original layers.
When you give iDVD a quicktime movie with chapter marks it encodes those chapters as separate mpeg 2 clips. When it muxes it combines everything into one stream. If there are any inconsistencies then muxing fails.
DVD Studio pro gives a more detailed log when muxing fails. It usually involves problems with chapter marks.

You've tried all the things we usually suggest.

I suspect something is wrong with this conversion. What was the original video source?

I'm trying to burn an iMovie in iDVD and at the end of the whole burn process it says "Multiplexer Error" "there was an error during formatting". How do I fix it so that it'll burn?

Hi
Multiplexing error is a very complex problem due to many things (long long list following) - one common but not obvious reason is that material on the iDVD menu goes outside the TV-Safe area (or just touching it).
So first - turn on TV-Safe area and move any object well inside of this.
Wide screen stretched - usually (as I think) it is due to making a 4x3 movie in a 16x9 wide-screen project OR the other way around. This forces one to on flat-screen TV (or other) set the presenting view right - My has 4x3, wide-screen, zoom and auto-wide-screen and I have to switch this by my remote for some DVD I've made "wrong" way.
Now my long long list on Multiplex Error
LONG LONG LONG LIST
Multiplexing Error
PART One.
Use of strange video/audio material e.g. .avi, .wmv, .mp3 etc.
I only use.
Video - StreamingDV (miniDV tape via FireWire) and
Audio - .aiff (as on audio-CDs) (else converted to this .aiff 48KHz)
Photo - .jpg (.bmp known problematic)
Chapters !
A. Using strange letters in video project name e.g. +,/; etc. keep to a-z and 0-9 strange letters in project name e.g. +
as described by Donnyboy69. Does the title of your project have any symbols or decimal points in it. If so, that is why you are getting the error. I had a project that had a + sign which caused the same problem. I renamed it without the symbol and low and behold, it worked.
B. Location of Chapters
• Can’t be at start or end of movie (Skip first/start one - iDVD sets this by it self. At the End - no need)
• Not in a transition (or within 2-3 seconds from it)
Important when from iMovie HD6 or previous - Now also observed when using FCE 4
PART Two.

"Multiplexing Error. Problem during initialization of tracks"
Simply remember to add subtitles to your Quicktime files and menu buttons.
Once I did that, I was back in business.
from Boise Jim
Do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
I always makes a DiskImage first and test this so that it runs OK
I use only - Verbatim DVDs
I use only - DVD-R
I burn at an as slow speed possibly e.g. x1
This gives good DVDs
PART Three.
Multiplex Error
Chuck, Chicago 2/7/2009.
Back again. Here is what I have found to work. I also have and use a LaCie DVD-R/RW DL external drive and a LaCie external hard drive as well. Since yesterday I have tried a few ways to burn a themed iDVD project having four 56 minute movies on it, amounting to 226 minutes onto a DVD DL disc, capacity 240 minutes. Apple tech support really didn't know what to do but gave me a very good tip. I had two options left. Apple tech support's tip was to try disc image. One of the replies on a thread with this subject said not to, but my experience today is good. Put your project onto "Burn to disc image," under "iDVD, file." Yesterday encoding took me 23 1/2 hours. Overnight for iDVD disc image, encoding took 21 1/2 hours (again) while I slept. This morning I tried to copy/burn disc image to a DVD with Roxio Toast 7, and it stopped near the end of the burn with some kind of "error" message. So then I tried Utilities> Disc Utility> Burn icon, and followed it through. Be sure to click the DVD DL drive in the window "Burn disc in.". I had one other problem though. At the end of a 46 minute copy, it started to verify, and at the end of verify it rejected the burn. So I tried again, and when "verify" appeared, I clicked on "Skip." The disc finished burning and is doing fine and well. A long and tortuous process, but at last something works. I made several additional copies using Disc Utility. Best wishes. Chuck, Chicago.
2. Disconnect any other external devices not absolutely needed.
e.g. external USB/USB2 hard disks, other FW hard disks etc.
3 Chapter marks in transitions - minimum 2 sec from

(Not a 'guy' but I will answer!)
First, I do not think that mixing wide-screen and standard makes a difference in iDVD.
Second, you should use a better brand of DVD disk. Also, many of us have experienced fewer problems on playback with DVD-R disks. Recommended brands here are Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden. Memorex and TDK are not consistent and may not give you a correct burn. They apparently have fewer layers in the composition of the disk. I have always used Verbatim DVD-R disks and have not had any burn problems.
Also, choose a slower burn speed, 4x or less.
Third, to determine if the iDVD project will burn properly, create a disk image file (from within iDVD, go File->Save as Disk Image) and test it. Mount the disk image and then open DVD Player (in Applications) and view your project. If it plays correctly, you can then burn the actual DVD disk from the disk image file using Disk Utility.

I did everything I've seen suggested, but a friend (who used to be an Apple Genius) suggested that I do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
It worked, and I got a clean burn from iDVD.
Hopefully this can help other people.

Well, I finally got it, and it was odd enough to post here incase anyone looks this topic up again. Many things were tried, including burning the unedited film, the edited film without titles and chapter markers, abbreviating the chapter markers in case length was the issue (remember the old iMovie used to truncate them when moving to iDVD?). In the process, I noticed that one, and only one, chapter marker was on the same line as the title marker. All the others were on the line above. The only way I seemed able to change that was to clip a few seconds of film. After that last clip, the offending marker took a place on the line above, as were all the others. That run published, compiled completely and burned. That's one for the books.

To add my experience with Multiplex Errors using iDVD (7.0.4), I recently created two iDVD projects
Video from both passed from FCE 4.01 with chapters
One project worked fine in creating disk image file
The other gave Multiplex Errors
I tried suggestions to remove special characters and no chapter marks at beginning, but nothing worked
Note that I've used iDVD for dozens of projects and this is first time I've run into Multiplex Errors
Anyway, for problem project, I tried an experiment where I removed all chapters in FCE and passed to new iDVD project
This time multiplex errors gone
So had something to do with chapters
So now I tried numerous experiments to remove individual chapters and try again creating disk image with new iDVD project
After numerous tries, I was able to narrow problem down to 1 "Bad" chapter mark
That is, when I left the "bad" chapter in my FCE project and passed to iDVD, iDVD gave multiplex error
When I removed "bad" chapter mark (and others in), no multiplex error
As a final experiment, I moved "bad" chapter mark about 5-10 sec's beyond original point and passed to iDVD, the multiplex errors now magically went away and I was able to finally create my disk image.
I have no idea why this worked, but thought I'd mention here in case someone else runs into similar problem.

In addition to Bengt's fine advice, burning errors can occur if you have located any of your menu buttons wholly or partly outside of the safe TV viewing area. Go to your main project menu, then click on View/Show TV Safe Area, to check. Drag into the safe viewing area any buttons that are outside the safe viewing area.
Russ One - suggest this
Multiplex Error-There was an error during muxing preparation
One thing that worked for me was to export the video w/o chapter markers as a self contained movie (thereby not loosing the edits & etc). Then make a new FCE project and import that movie into a new sequence and add the chapter markers. I've used "-", "&" and "," with no problem in the chapter names. Removing the markers or exporting without them did solve the problem but renaming them with just numbers 1,2,3....5, did not solve the problem and since this problem seems to happen with with iMovie as well, it would suggest the problem is in the video or audio and in combination with the chapter markers iDVD just can't handle it. The only other possibility is that both iMovie and FCE share the same or similar chapter marker code that some how is corrupting the markers.
Summary - What to try
1. Chapters
• Only A to Z and 0 to 9 in chapter title
• No Chapter mark at very beginning of movie
• No Chapter mark in or within 2 seconds from any transition in movie
2. TV-safe area for buttons (no one outside this)
3. Safe re-boot
4. No other external devices connected - that are not needed
SDMacuser adds to this
• On #4 ... No ext. devices. Some think this applies mainly to ext. FW. Not the case. Also applies to ext. USB2 as well (not to mention flash drives too).
Do not leave 3rd party devices / camera / camcorder plugged in unless it is being used with iDvd's One Step process. Certain web cams can trigger this also (especially ones with added features like LED light/s that draw additional power from the FW or USB bus).
5. Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-up hard disk
6. Make a DiskImage first - reduces where problem originates
7. Trash iDVD pref. file
8. Make a new iDVD project
9. Movies in project with same aspect ratio e.g. 4x3 or 16x9
10. No other programs/applications running during iDVD process. e.g. Internet, screen & energy savers

HT1645 whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing. I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing. I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

Welcome to the forums.
Looks like that error message does refer to encoding (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1645) but a problem could be that your video has to be reloaded into iDVD if you started the encoding process and then switched settings. You could start a new iDVD project, or try deleting encoded assets.
Let's start from the beginning -- what length of video are you trying to fit on the DVD? (this will indicate what encoding options you have). Double layer DVDs can be finicky and are used for video more than 2 hrs long.
Use good quality media -- Verbatim is often recommended around here, and I've used Sony DVD-R with good results.

Hi John,
I customized the standerd Transfer BR according to my requirement. And I am using the customized form.
I tried to change the Action in (Action is smart list) in the form, it is getting saved but with the error There was an error during the save process.
My requirement is Action updated through BR only. But it is not updating. Previously the same BR worked fine.
Is there any relationship between the error and the Action was not updating?
Thanks & Regards,
Sravan Kumar.

Dvd studio pro 4 won't write disc? it just says there was an error during encoding over and over again...

It just says that there was an error encoding over and over again. It is version 4.2.2 It said the software required a dvd- which i used... I've tried just backing up the video to a disc not using studio pro but my computer won't do it? Any suggestions?

David's right. Do the encode in compressor and bring the resulting m2v (video) and ac3 (audio) into dvdsp. Then do an advanced burn: build in dvdsp and test the build using the mac dvdplayer to play the video_ts folder you've created. Just go to file: Open DVD Media and point to the build folder or the video_ts folder within it. If this works, your dvd burner is probably the problem. You can buy an external burner for not a lot of money. Apple sells one, and you can even get cheaper ones than that.

It says there was an error during installation, and I should reinstall...? But I have a million times

I don't know i'm doing this for my sister. She keeps uninstalling and reinstalling, and everytime she clicks on it, it says 'there was an error, please reinstall, error code 7, windows error code 998 ' or something like that. how do we stop this?

Is there another error message along with the 7 mentioning a specific file? If so, what is the name of the file? (Precise spelling, please.)

Multiplexer error - There was an error during formatting

Hello,
I'm using a brand new iMac 3.06Ghz and iDVD '08. The system software is completely fresh will all relevant updates applied. When burning to physical DVD's or to disk images, I'm frequently getting the following error message:
http://skitch.com/willwood/qysy/idvd
This error message occurs right at the end of the burn process and is occurring with about 80% of the burns I'm doing. Sometimes if I format a disk and try again it works second time round.
I went to an Apple store yesterday and spoke to a genius about this problem. I was told that instead of burning directly to a DVD, I should do the process in two stages. Firstly, get iDVD to make a disk image on my desktop and then use Disk Utility to physically burn the disk image to a blank DVD. Well, I've tried this as well and I'm no further forward. The same error message is being displayed. I've run through this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1583?viewlocale=enUS&locale=enGB
and in answer to the questions:
1) Software update run, no updates available
2) I have over 820GB of free space
3) There are no non-Apple QuickTime plugins installed
4) No third-party iDVD theme's used
5) I'm able to burn from other applications like Finder and iPhoto
6) Have run hardware test. No problems identified
7) Issue occurs in the final few minutes of burn, no thumbnail shown
8) ?
9) Have tried re-encoding project
10) Intermittent fault - happens on other projects at random
I've done some googling and can't turn up any other information. Also searched these forums but quite a bit of what I've found relates to Final Cut. What else can I try?

I'm also on the trail of a solution. Actually two possible solutions.
I have two iMacs. My older one has OSX 10.4.11 (Tiger) and the newer one has OSX 10.5.3 (Leopard) on it. I was having very similar problems on both machines EXCEPT the older machine wouldn't say what the error was ... it would just say "there was an encoding error" .... but it was happening at the exact same time as the 'Multiplexer Error' so I think it may be the same thing.
Anyway, on the old (Tiger) Mac I tried removing all third party Quicktime components from /Library/Quicktime (such as Flip4Mac, Divx, and Perian) and tried re-encoding a 1 hour 30 minute piece of video. IT WORKED! So now I am in the process of adding those components back in one at a time to find out which one is the culprit. (personally I suspect it might be Perian sin it is the newest one I've added, and I've added it to the old computer and the new computer before this problem cropped up - but my experiments should tell me for sure)
On the new computer (Leopard) I looked at iDVD '08 closer and found that there are three compression modes (in the Project/Project Info menu) - "Best Performance", which lets you encode an hour or less of video - "High Quality" lets you encode more than an hour of video - and "Professional Quality" that also lets you encode more than an hour of video.
Obviously "Best Performance" works (that's the one I've been stuck with for the last couple weeks), but the "High Quality" mode is the one that chokes with the "Multiplexer Error" - But here's the kicker - just for grins I tried using "Professional Quality" mode and I was able to successfully create a DVD with 1 hour and 45 minutes of video !!!
So for now it's looking like a toss-up between Quicktime components being the culprit or a bug in the "High Quality" encode mode. But at least using the "Professional Quality" encode mode lets me create DVDs with more than an hour of video.
I will continue my experiments and let you know what happens.
By the way, the new computer is using iDVD '08 (version 7.02), while the old computer is using the older version of iDVD (version 6.04). So it's version 7.02 that throws out the "Multiplexer Error" in "High Quality" mode (but works in "Professional Quality" mode), and version 6.04 is choking Quicktime add-on components.
I hope this helps you. It sure makes me feel better having a way to encode more than an hour of video.

There was an error during initialization. Failed to load an application resource (internal error).

I get this error 4 times when I open reader and can;t repair or uninstall it 11.0.06 (Mircrosoft windows search filter host needs to be closed).
Windows 7

I haven't installed any third-party plugins. However, looking at the list of plugins, I see that there are two copies of ECMAScript: EScript.api dated 12/18/12, and EScript_AVG_RESTORED.api dated 1/21/13. So my bet is this is a side-effect of my anti-virus blocking the JavaScript security hole that was fixed by Java 7 Update 11. I deleted escript*.* from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe and the errors have gone away.

GRRR! "There was an error during movie encoding"
