H.264 blu ray setting not working

I am about ready to pull my hair out. I purchased final cut pro x, compressor 4, and a new canon hd camcorder. From the research i did it appeared i also needed anusoft's media converter program in order to work with my canon's .mts files. i successfully edited several hours of footage down to about an hour and exported it from final cut prox using the export media setting and dragged the prores file into compressor 4 and converted it to h.264. however i am unable to open the file that is produced by this process. I have tried doing it various ways. i have tried using a small segement of the video. i've tried using another video with the same results. I did try converting a segment to another compressor pre set and it worked fine. i continue to get the same error every time when i try to open the h264 file, "cannot open media file". The other odd thing that happens when i double click on the file, just before i get the error message,  is that compressor opens. i had assumed it would've opened in quick time but perhaps i'm wrong in this. i've deleted my compressor program and re installed it. I've deleted final cut pro x and reinstalled that. I've done a clean install. (i was having serious problems with final cut pro x not opening in my administrator account so that was why i took such a drastic step with the clean install). Final cut pro x now works perfectly well. But i am still getting the exact same problem with the h 264 setting. my goal is to burn a blu ray disc with my digistor blu ray burner. I am using Lion. Anusoft MTS conversion was set for prores "lite" and everything seemed fine in final cut pro x. 
after all this i am assuming i am an idiot and have missed something really obvious. I've been making home movies for a long time and have upgraded to the pro applications and realize it's a learning curve but i'm usually pretty quick to catch on. I'd really appreciate some advice! I've been working at this in my spare time since December 11 and haven't been able to find much out there so thanks anyone if you have a moment.

Unfortunately Compressor, Quicktime X and Quicktime 7 can't play a Blu-ray .264 video files. This makes it hard to test your raw Blu-ray videos.
I found an app that will plaback the Blu-ray .264 video file on a Mac, VideoSpec. It's a free app!
http://videospec.free.fr/index.html
Drop your Blu-ray .264 video onto the open window and hit the play button in the upper left. VideoSpec has the Mplayer incorporated into the app. I guess you could download the stand-alone Mplayer app. But, Videospec gives you more options, video info for example.
What you could do to save on Blu-ray discs is to burn the Video onto a DVD for a test. You can only burn about 35 minute onto a DVD disc.

  • Premier CS4 will export H.264 Blu Ray, but not a H.264 file.

    When I export the file under H.264, Adobe Encoder won't even load the project file. However, it loads and completely exports my 25 minute 1080p HD 24 fps film under the H.264-Blu Ray option which takes about 17 hours on my Dinosaur PC.
    So basically, I already have a 25 minute 4 gig film on a Blu-ray disc that I burned at my friends Modern computer, and now I just want a standalone MP4 file as a backup.   
    Anyone?

    and 30G free on a 640G EXTERNAL 

    Despite the Interlaced UFF export setting, the H.264 option doesn't respect that and exports out a poorly deinterlaced progressive video instead.
    If you need interlaced H.264, always use the H.264 Blu-ray option.

  • Encore cs 5.1 blu ray chapter not working.....

    I've a tone of problems with this version.  Encore showing error codes 14, 25.....Some of the chapters working fine but others not. I've tried several ways to solve the issues but no hope. It seems you need full knowledge of blu ray theories to burn a blu ray!!!!

    I'm using windows 7 on laptop with i7 processor and nvidia GTS 360M display, External 1 TB HDD through SATA cable.
    Original shot was on HDV 60i with multiple Sony cameras and did the multicam edit. Converted to H264 with PCM audio with premiere CS 5.5, used VBR 2 pass everthing else left as defaut settings. Rendering took almost 21 hrs to generate  2:18 hr. video .m4v and .wav files (file size 17.7 gb).
    When I bring these videos as timeline(took ~20min to load files.) into the Encore with all the menus(created in photoshop with buttons and res. 1440 X 1080 to match with other assets ), some of the chapters not working on the preview window and Encore transcoded the whole files took another ~10 hrs!
    Is there any better and faster workflow to complete the project ?
    note: I used the cineform avi for multicam editing in premiere pro with the same settings (HDV 29.97).
    Okay, we are starting to make progress, but why are you shooting in HDV? That is a lossy system using non-sqyuare pixels so the whole thing is effectively getting converted. No wonder it took 21 hours and it looks to me as if you exported to the wrong settings - .m4v is regular .264, not BluRay. See Stan's suggestion.
    We still need to see the exact error messages - it looks likely you are out of HDD space. Remember that Premiere & Encore use 32-bit float audio temp files, and the media cache databases will be enormous.....how much HDD free is remaining?

  • Blu Ray drive not working at all

    I have an HP ENVY 17-j092nr Notebook PC.  The Blu Ray player that came with it was the Mat**bleep**a BD CMB UJ 162. This drive worked, and then stopped.  It won't read any disc of any kind at all anymore.  Not audio CDs, no Blu Ray discs, no program instalation discs. Although I recently upgraded to Windows 10, this was an issue when I had Windows 8.1.  So it's not a Windows 10 problem. Checking the upper and lower filters in the registry, deleting them, re installing drivers, getting rid of iTunes, none of that has worked.  My device manager says the device is working properly. What the dirve does do often, with or whithout a cd in it, is it'll click three times, as though trying to read a disc, and then stop.  The action light on the dirve itself flashes while this is going on.
    Here is the iTunes diagnostic I ran on the drive:

    I have exactly the same problem... mine sounds like it is trying to read the disk, makes loads of juddering noises. i have to keep taking it in and out till it finally works. games, dvds, cds, the lot. i took it to the so called pc experts where i got my laptop from and they said it happens and to restore the computer to its original factory settings, it worked for him, however it didnt work for me, well, it did then went back to its old ways the second time i used it. so i think i may have a deeper problem, but it could always work for you.
    sorry i havent been much help, but i would also like to hear some suggestions! it is extremely frustrating..

  • Blu-ray does not work after update to windows 7

    Hi, couple months ago I have installed windows 7 on my HP Pavilion dv5-1070ew (previously there was pre-installed Vista). I've installed the newest version of HP MediaSmart DVD (4.0.3822) downloaded right from HP.com but unfotunately, when I'm inserting a BLU-RAY Disc it's not being played. HP MediaSmart DVD opens and it writes that "Disc is ready to play" (so it is able to see the disc), but when I click button "Play", the monitor starts to wink for a while and then nothing happens...
    Thanks in advance for any help

  • The blue ray menu not working for Adobe Premiere Eelemnts 13

    Hi , I bought Adobe Premiere Elements 13 while and when I using the software to create a Blue Ray disc, the final disc is not function at all after write. I have the same problem in Adobe Premiere Elements avuto 12. I try to use the software on the another computer and I have the same problem. Another problem is that the software writes up to 70% not 100% of the disk to create a Blue Ray Disc. Does anyone have any idea how I can solve these problems? How can notify the Adobe software on these issues? Thank you.

    Thanks for the reply.
    1. You say that you are using the Quality area with check mark next to "Fit contents to Available Space", but what are the readings there
    for Space Required and Bitrate when you have your Blu-ray disc in the burner tray and you have Status = Ready in the burn dialog?
    What capacity disc are you using - BD-R 25 GB or BD-RE DL 50 GB?
    2. I understand that you have Premiere Elements 7 and can create a Blu-ray disc format with disc menus on Blu-ray disc with it. Is 7 on the same computer as 13 and using the same burner and disc?
    Did I understand correctly
    a. You can create the Premiere Elements Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc WITHOUT menus and you have no problems with playback on your player, but you cannot do that if you include the disc menus?
    If that is the case, what specific disc menu are you using? And, how many Timeline menu markers have you placed on the Timeline beforehand?
    How many main menu pages and how many scene selection pages results as a result?
    On the Blu-ray format on Blu-ray disc with disc menus that are failing, is the preference for Intel HD Graphics 2000 and Higher enabled or disabled?
    If your Timeline content will be generating a Blu-ray ISO Image greater than 1 GB, there can be more problems. Please see
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE 13: ISO Image File Size Issue
    Please review the above and supply the details mentioned, and then we can decide on a troubleshooting plan.

  • Blue Ray player not working after upgrading to windows 7

    I upgraded my HP Pavilion  m9517c-b desktop PC bundle (part number FQ575AA) which includes:
    m9517c Desktop PC, part number FQ574AA# ABA   to windows 7 from Vista  home 64.
    This upgrade now prevents the HP mediasmart program to play blue ray DVD's  giving a message of
    " The content is protected     The content cannot be played in the current display mode" 
    I had no problems playing BlueRay DVD's or any other thing with Vista home 64.   I was looking for mediasmard driver updates but don't seem to find any that will allow blueray  DVD's to play.    Is there a solution to this problem.
    Thanks
    dmc

    Do you have more than one display connected to your computer (for example, a monitor and also a TV)? Typically you would get this error if you're trying to play a Blu-ray movie in dual display mode, so you'd have to pick one display or the other.
    If you have more than one display, or even if you only have one display connected, try toggling the display mode by pressing Windows (flag) key + P and select the one screen you want it to play on. Refer to Resolving DVD and Blu-ray Movie Problems (Windows 7) for other troubleshooting ideas.

  • Blue ray drive not working all of a sudden and not reading any discs

    I am using hp hdx 18 laptop which is a few years old and it was working fine until recently i found that the drive doesn't read discs anymore but the device manager shows it's fine and it tries to read by spinning and making noise and then stop
    I tried to boot the machine from dvd in setup but it will just go straight to HDD bootup.   
    is it busted?  just wondering what I can do to see if there's anything I can do before getting an external drive
    thanks
    donald

    It could have failed as suppected.  When you tried to boot to a DVD or Restore disk, did you remember to change the boot order to DVD/CD first device?
    The drive is normally a replaceable device but an external device should work OK, too.

  • Toast 11 and ASUS Blue-Ray burner not working together!

    Hey All,
    I recently got an ASUS SBC-06D2X-U Blue-Ray burner and found out that little "Mac compatabile" label isn't correct. Had to get Toast 11. Now I have that and the disk spits out still when I try to burn. I don't know what to do at this point. Disks are 4x and burner is 6x, but that shouldn't matter.
    Help please!

    it has nothing to do with windows or mac..
    Your bluray from Asus its COMBO, that model doesn´t record bluray,
    ASUS SBC-06D2X-U its bluray combo (read-only blurays )
    ASUS SBW-06D2X-U its blurays writer

  • Exporting H.264 Blu-ray material in CS3

    System:
    2009 Mac Pro 3.33GHz Quad core
    Snow Leopard 10.6.5
    16GB RAM
    Radeon HD 5870
    Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, 3.2.0
    Video material:
    DVCProHD, 1080p60i/24p, 23.976fps shot on P2, MXF file format.
    Exporting to:
    H.264 Blu-ray via Adobe Media Encoder
    I can render Blu-ray material, and even burn it in an internal LG 10x Blu-ray burner that I installed.  The result was wonderful when played back on a Blu-ray player and HDTV.
    What I cannot figure out is why I have to render projects in small little segments, rather than one large one, and then line them all up on a timeline in Encore.  I then have to rearrange my chapter points, since Encore places a chapter marker at each clip.  It's not the biggest deal in the world, but it's just annoying.
    I've tried different settings, and the one that gives me the most success is starting with the preset for H.264 (Blu-ray), HDTV 1080p 23.976 High Quality, and switching the Profile from High to Main, and leaving the rest alone.  I'm not sure if I tried HDTV 1080i 29.97... maybe I should.  Whether it crashes or not seems to depend on how many effects are in the clip, or how long the segment is, but I can usually get away with up to about 10000 frames of video without a crash.  The crash almost always occurs during the second pass of VBR encoding.  It closes Premiere and offers the crash report window, which I am not good at decyphering.  Anyway, I always submit the crash report with what I was trying to do.  Adobe has many of them from me now.
    Can anyone shed some light as to why it only allows 6000-10000 frames go through this encoding process?  My system will show that it only used about 6 out of 16 GB of RAM after a fresh reboot.  It helps if I reboot between each encode session, as well.  If I try to encode two short segments without rebooting between, I usually get a crash.  Also, I can encode DVDs just fine with the same project.  I encoded the 105 minute movie with all the same effects, clips, etc. and the DVD was flawless on the first try.  It's just the H.264 Blu-ray setting that jacks it up.
    I'm glad I can get the thing done piecemeal, but I was hoping someone could at least explain why it's so difficult. (:

    I would agree, and I think it must have to do with RAM.  When I get a segment exported successfully, the Activity Monitor shows very close to all 16 GB used in many cases.  I surmise that when the program sucks too close to all 16GB up, it crashes.

  • Audio not in sync after encoding to H.264 Blu ray

    I have recently been trying to author my first blu-ray and keep running into new problems everytime I think I find a new solution. My new problem is that when I encode my sequence from Ppro CC to H.264 Blu-ray and place the video file and audio file into Encore CS6 the audio seems to be falling out of sync. I tried placing both files into a new PPro sequence and checked the playback and they are also out of sync there. 
    Things I've tried:
    1) I went back and just encoded the audio from the sequence but this time I switched the audio coding to DD 320 bitrate instead of PCM. When I placed this file into the PPro sequence the playback was perfect. However, when I try placing the same two files (video and audio) into Encore they are out of sync.
    2) I decided to take the encoded video file and place it back into the original PPro sequence and use it to replace the original video track. The playback again fell out of sync. Since this sequence had the original pre-encoded audio track, I came to the conclusion that it is actually the video that is not keeping up with the audio once encoded.
    I am trying to encode to 1920x1080 HD 23.967 fps H.264 Blu Ray. I know I can just encoded to .avi match source and then let Encore do the transcoding, but figuring out this problem is a learning experience for me. Does PCM or Dolby Digital make a difference? What is the best way to do?

    It sounds like things went wonky the first time around.  Try exporing the whole thing again.
    PCM is higher quality.  Blu-rays have a lot of room compared to DVD, so I feel it's often the better choice.  I'd recommend using DD only when you have to.  But considering that I've put 3 hours of HD onto disk and still only filled 17GB, I think it's the very rare occasion when you'll run out of room and have to use DD on Blu-ray.
