PGC error caused by subtitles

I went to build a project and got the "PGC has an error at" error.  After re-encoding all the assets on the timeline and re-importing into Encore it built fine UNTIL i added the subtitles back into the mix.  I went to the time it said it had an error and just deleted the subtitle there and tried to output again, same error but different timecode.  If I delete the subtitle that occurs at each error it progresses BUT this isn't really a solution. I could deal with a couple deletions, not this many. 
Is there any actual fix to this issue?  Or suggestions (rebuild from scratch?)?  Very frustrating.
The timeline has 3 audio tracks (DD 2.0 192k), not sure if that is a contributing factor.
I'm using Encore 5.1 (CS5.5).
thanks
Ryan

For what it's worth, here's what solved the problem for me.
I have a DVD project, one timeline with one video track and one audio track, both rendered to .m2v and .ac3 in Compressor on Mac.
I'm working on PC on Encore CS 5.1.
A couple of months after releasing my DVD I had to come back and redo another edition with minor changes, so I just replace the assets on my timeline expecting it will work. Then I get the dreaded PGC error....
After messing up with any possible part of the project I could think of and eventually redoing a whole timeline, I realize the problem is coming from my subtitles (I have 10 subtitle tracks), and finally find out that the problem is coming from one of the subtitle tracks in particular.
And more specifically from these lines :
00:52:50:01 00:52:52:07 No fue lo primero que elegimos.
Cuando nos decidimos por el mulch,
00:52:52:07 00:52:54:15 hay muchas otras maneras
de crear una capa de mulch
The first line here ends at the same time at the second line starts. I changed the start of the second line to 00:52:52:08 and it compiled fine.
Now, keep in mind that this is a project that I had successfully compiled in the past, just reopened after a couple of months without changing anything to it, and it didn't work anymore.
I can't imagine anyone from Adobe is paying much attention to these threads, but it would be nice if errors were a tad more descriptive... I spent a week working on this one. How about "subtitles overlap at hh:mm:ss on track n"?
Anyway, I hope this helps someone.

  • Toshiba 32AV933G: unsupported media error caused by subtitles

    Hello.
    I am having some trouble with this media player of my toshiba bedroom tv.
    More specific sometimes while the media plays at some time the audio stops, after a few seconds the tv becomes unresponsive while playing only the video and finally it gets me back to the video folder with an `unsupported media`error.
    After a lot of troubleshooting _i finally came to the solution._
    _The problem is caused by the subtitles._
    I am in greece so for sure this happens with greek subs.
    If for example the subs have a line and the line starts with( ( i ) * that is bold subtitle) this problem will occur.
    If i remove the bold from the subs there is no problem at all.
    Obviously bold etc is not supported.
    I think this could be easilly fixed via a firmware upgrade.
    *i have put ( i ) which is not the correct form because the correct one that starts and ends with < is not shown in the message:)

    Yes of course. Without utf-8 the srt doesnt work at all with greek language.
    However the problem remains.
    As i said tried a lot of things. First of all i thought it was the video encode etc.
    *Finally i came to the solution.*
    If in the text file of the subs(srt) there are special tags in the beginning of the line like the ones i wrote before the video doesnt work ok.
    If i delete this special tags using a text editor it is working ok.
    Surely there is a problem with <i)> tag that is i think for potitioning the subs.
    Of course i can spent one minute to fix every sub file, it is not difficult.
    But i dont think its a problem that cant be solved easily with a firmware upgrade..
    Ps after further testing the <i)> flag in front of a line and </i)> in the end makes the player to stop playing the video. The bold flags <b)> and </b)> dont make the video to halt.
    However the subs dont display correct for about one minute after the bolded sub.
    If they could just make a firmware that completely ignores these flags i think it would solve the problem..

  • PGC error in EN CS6

    On a new Win8 system with CS6 freshly installed and updated with the latest updates, I consistently get a PGC error at the same location everytime I try to build a DVD.
    The Encore project is very simple: 1 timeline (the video) and 1 asset (the audio). No subtitles.
    The timeline was encoded in PR and consists of a single nested seuence, HDV material, scaled down to 54% to fit the SD sequence settings, On track 2 there are some SD MPEG2 scenes and on track 3 are some titles.
    This was encoded to MPEG2-DVD, PAL Widescreen High Quality, CBR 8 Mbps with MRQ on and audio to Dolby stereo at 192 Kbps.
    The video file was imported as timeline and the audio as asset. Of course no transcoding required.
    So far, so good. Previewing gives no problems. But on the build of a DVD, I get a PGC error everytime and the build stops.
    I located the problem as the start of the first title on track 3 in the PR project. I removed the title and created a new (identical) title and exported again. Still the same problem. I moved the title a few frames, exported again and yes, the PGC error now shows the new timecode of this title.
    Haven't tried yet to completely remove the title in the PR project, but this is weird that a simple title can cause this problem.
    Any workarounds?

    Disabling the title track in PR and re-exporting does not help. Here are the export settings:

  • PGC error when burning in Encore CS3 ... help

    I've looked and can not find any one else with exactly this problem. I recently upgraded to Adobe Creative Suite 3 and can not get a DVD to burn. The project checks fine, the files transcode without difficulty but during the burning process, I very quickly get a PGC "file name" error.
    I have a Sony Pentium 4, 2 GHz, with 1.21 G of RAM, and plenty (30 G) free on my hard drive. I have a 16X Memorex DVD burner which is probably 6 months old, but up until now has worked great. I've tried several different brands of DVD-R media and same problem.
    I'd describe myself as an advanced amateur at video making. I taught myself on Nova's Video Explosion and burned 100's of dvd's on the Sonic's My DVD program over the past 5 years. Actually that system worked well, but I'd outgrown it. I downloaded Encore 2.0 free 30 day trial and loved it. I'd import (uncompressed) avi files that I'd created in other programs (mostly Video Explosion, but also Movie Shaker, and Windows Movie Maker), create menus in PS CS2 and my DVD's burned quickly and without errors at all. When my 30 days expired, I found they no longer offered 2.0 and I decided to spend the big bucks at got Creative Suite 3 really solely for Encore.
    I've now spent 3 days trying all kinds of different things, many different files from different sources and I always get the same error message of "PGC "file name" has an error at "time" internal software error %0, line "file name:, time 00:"time", ref= BPGC.
    I did read some messages on here about uncompressed avi vs. compressed avi. I did find that I was using uncompressed avi, but when I used Adobe premiere and rendered as MPEG 2 ( I believe), I got the same error. The only success (?) I had was when I rendered a file as a .MOV. It did burn without the dreaded error message, but the quality was extremely poor and jumpy.
    Any ideas? I've got a project due in a couple of days and at present I've got files that I can't get to DVD...

    So, finally I've found the source of the problem and a workaround!
    First the source:
    when Encore has to transcode a video it must corrupt the file, because it's the transcoded file that causes the problem, I tried this by importing a transcoded file into Encore 1.5 there it came with the same error.
    Now the workaround, ok maybe it isn't quite a workaround but it's a way to go:
    What I did was: I built my project new in Encore 1.5, because Encore 2.0 has a problem importing the videos by me, but if you would just import the videos in 1.5 and let 1.5 transcode them so that all of them would fit on a DVD you should be able to import the transcoded files in CS3 and it should work, no guarantee.
    Other possibility: try opening your project in encore 2.0 and re import your videos there and let 2.0 do all of the transcoding, that might work too!
    But for certain: don't let encore CS3 do all the transcoding!
    I'm working with PAL files I don't know if it will be the same by NTSC, but it's worth a try!
    If anybody feels like reproducing the bug, here is the way to do it:
    Make a project in Encore CS3 and import Videos encoded by premiere as MPG2-DVD (I think: .m2v .wav) and set the transcoding options to automatic, encore should have to transcode the files. Then let encore make the DVD, at some point you should get that nice PGC error!

  • PGC error

    I have been using the Master Collection CS4 without flaws for almost a year now, however, yesterday I suddenly received an unknown e
    rror.  PGC error.  I take an HDV timeline (1080i) from PPro CS4 and export it via AME under the same settings I always have.  I do n
    ot make any menus or titles in Encore, I simply import the timeline, change the title and end actions to stop (like I always have) a
    nd then burn.  I then get the PGC error message about the aspect ratio not being for DVD.  This is confusing since I've done this fo
    r almost a year, but suddenly yesterday I started getting this message.
    Operating System: Mac OS X (v10.6)

    You might want to start by doing a Search of this forum for "PGC+error." IIRC, there are three different threads, one very, very long. This error-group (I say that, because there seem to be several circumstances that can cause them), while not common, seems to be tied to first Assets and Project and then possibly to system. SlideShows seem to play a role for some users.
    My hope would be that some of the replies from people, such as Jeff Bellune and Stanley Jones, will point you to an immediate solution. You can even filter your Search on People, and use "Jeff Bellune," as he was very active in all of those threads.
    Because of the vast number of variables that seemed to come into play, you can probably rule out some suggestions pretty quickly. Be sure to read down each thread, as some of the solutions did not come until much later on.
    At the very least, you will see some of the things that appear to be contributors, and can either rule those out, or comment on how they figure into your issue.
    Good luck, and please report back,

  • The Dreaded PGC error in Encore CS4

    Hi Group,
    Have used Encore for a couple of years now and encountered the PGC errors in previous versions all of which I eventually surmounted. Usually they were audio based and changing the saving settings in WAV files usually solved it.
    However now in CS4 it has returned with a vengance, no amount of audio changes have solved it, even tried changing to different formats (wav to aif etc) to no avail. Tried changing the transcoding settings, no help.
    What I'm doing is as follows: Using a PC, windows xp pro 64bit, 8gb ram. creating photofiles in Photoshop, into After Effects, making slideshow outputting as AVI, opening as asset in Encore and moving into a timeline, transcode and build to a disc and burn. NO PROBLEM there.
    Now when I start adding audio and follow through as above, the assests transode and it starts to build I get:-
    "PGC <timeline name>  has an error at 48.7200s. The aspect ratio of this file is not supported by DVD.  PGCinfo: name=<timeline name>, ref=epgc, time=48.7200s"
    I have read some of the similar problems in the forum and have tried many of the suggestion without result.
    Surely there must be some answer somewhere.
    Please if you know a fix please let me know urgently.
    Thanks in advance to all those that take the time to reply.

  • Popup Errors caused by new fields with retrieval rules.

    I need to suppress the popup errors caused by retrieval rules that  reference fields that were added to a dictionary after a service request  was submitted.
    I added several fields to a dictionary, and the fields will always   remain hidden.  In the form (that is used by multiple services) I   created several retrieval rules to insert data into these new fields.    This now causes popup errors, "An attempt to get data and/or use it on   the form has failed because the field
    <Dictionary>.<Field>
    is not on this form" on  service requests that have this form and were  submitted prior to the  addition of the dictionary fields.  If possible,  we would rather not  use a Javascript to supress this as we like to  configure the product  correctly rather than patch it.  The fields are  filled in by retrieval  rules (on field change) on the  Customer_Information newScale reserve  form, so just creating another  form isn't an option. If I do have to  use a Javascript, and someone can  send me what they use, I would really  appreciate it.  Thanks.

  • Equium A60-157: error caused by device driver

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to write my PhD thesis at the moment and am being hampered by my laptop! It keeps randomly bringing up the blue screen of death and then restarting; when it's all loaded up, I get a 'serious error' message that says 'error caused by device driver'. As far as I know, all the programs I have are compatible... I was advised to restore factory settings, which I did a few months ago. And I've had the BIOS update suitable for my computer. But it's still happening!!
    If it helps, the programs I use daily are Microsoft Word, Access and Powerpoint, Internet Explorer and MSN Messenger. I don't run any high spec games (only Minesweeper occasionally!)
    What can I do? Does anyone else have this problem? Any advice would be much appreciated, as these crashes are not helping my work!
    Thanks...

    Hi guys,
    I seem to have a similar problem. About a month ago I reinstalled windows using the product recovery cd and three days later I started getting a blue screen. But the error occurs only when shutting down (not always, I can`t see any pattern)- right before the shut down itself, windows has already logged off and settings are saved. The error code is 0x50 and the report says it is caused by an unknown device driver.
    The day that stop error started I installed an educational software (Leankey's) for which I used a virtual cd. But at the initial launch the program "freezed" and I had to close it and open it again, there wasn`t a problem. After that I tried to copy some files on a blank cd (without using any burning software) and it said that the device was not accessible.
    I tried disabling DMA but that didn`t help. In the event viewer I saw error messages that say the cdrom has a bad block. I`m not sure whether this has something to do with the stop error but they started at the same time. I can still burn cds with other software (nero). I tried to update the device driver but it didn`t help.
    Maybe I have to uninstall the driver first but from the device manager when I check the properties of the device (driver details) it uninstalls the device and the driver remains. Should I delete the driver files manually? I have checked all device drivers and they are all compatible. All installed software is digitally signed. (I immediately removed the Learnkey`s software but I think it has changed some dll...
    I will appreciate any suggestions.
    P.S. When I run the toshiba diagnostic tool it skips testing the cd/dvd but it doesn`t say why.

  • PGC Error, AMD system, and Possible Workaround

    I too am experiencing the PGC error in Encore CS3. I have found what seems to be a work-around (although it isn't convenient at all). I'm thinking that it has to do with either:
    1. Codec Issues in the transcoding (it appears that Encore and Premiere are using the same codec, too). Perhaps I have some weird codecs installed.
    2. Some incompatibility between the AMD processor or NVIDIA chipset and the transcoding codecs.
    Here's the error I was getting when I was trying to build a DVD image:
    PGC "Main Menu" has error at 00;00;20;21.internal software error: %0, line Main Menu - PGC Info: name = Main Menu, ref=gpgc, time = 00:00:20:21
    So, I removed the motion background from the Main Menu, then got the same PGC error referencing one of my timelines. That timeline had been exported from Premiere as an MPEG2 file (separate .m2v and .wav files were created).
    I was doing all this on an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ system with NVIDIA chipset and graphics card. So I loaded the project (over a firewire network) on my Intel Core Duo / Intel Graphics based Dell laptop. Once I got everything relinked properly, I tried to Build the DVD image again, but got the same error. It was still using the same transcoded files.
    Next, still on the laptop, I reverted all the transcoded files back to their original, and imported AVI files instead of transcoded files into my timelines. I then saved the project and closed Encore, and manually deleted any files that had been generated in the transcodes and cache folders. Then I re-opened the project and re-rendered my one motion menu. I tried building the DVD image again, and after a few hours transcoding it actually worked!
    I've now used a similar procedure twice and it has worked both times. I haven't tried using "Transcode Now" instead of having it transcode before building, but I imagine it would work too.
    Also, on the AMD system I was having several problems with Encore freezing up during transcoding. The Intel-based laptop seems to run it more stable. So my plan for now is to use Encore on my laptop instead. Besides, the laptop is faster anyway!

    I think this install all packages as "explicitly installed" which you may not want (remove a package and it's dependecies remain, because they are not installed as deps anymore).
    you may want to break it up into
    #first dependencies:
    for p in `pacman -Qd | cut -f1 -d" "`; do pacman --noconfirm --asdeps -S$p; echo "y
    y" | pacman -Scc; done
    #then explicitly installed packages:
    for p in `pacman -Qe | cut -f1 -d" "`; do pacman --noconfirm --asexplicit -S$p; echo "y
    y" | pacman -Scc; done
