Problems creating a dvd on premeire elements 9.

It won't create a disc menu and cuts the movie short no matter what I do, it won't include all videos. I do not have autoplay selected anywhere that I can see. Why is it cutting 30 minutes of my video as well?

Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 on Windows XP 32 bit
Do not give up. Let us see what we can do to get your project moving forward if possible. Several important consideration.
1. Computer resources and a large project.
Your Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in a 32 bit computer environment and as such has all the limitations of 32 bit system, namely maximum supported installed RAM = 4 GB of which typically 3.2 to 3.0 or less of that are available. You have a 2 hour plus which is maxing out the capacity of the disc. You have a lot of menu pages (1 main menu and 7 scene menu pages). The location of your Scratch Disks and how much free hard drive space there might be factoring into all this also.
2. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 will allow no more than 25 menu markers on that Timeline. That is the same for Premiere Elements 10 and 11 as well.
The history of that can be found
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE: Menu Marker Limitation/Implementation Update
So the number of main menu and scene menu pages will be impacted on how many pages 25 markers fit into.
But, you are not losing Timeline content in this regard. The Timeline content after 25th marker is there, it just does not have a menu button to access it.
You pick the 25th scene and then let it play out to the end of the Timeline. If you want less pages put still want 25 menu markers, then pick a menu (or create one) that has more buttons per page designed into it).
Things to do:
a. Check the Scratch Disks (Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disk for location and free hard drive space.
Check for pile ups in the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder, Media Cache Folder.
Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Media and hit the Clean button in the Media Cache Database area.
b. Find a menu or create one with more buttons per page.
c. In the burn dialog, tell us what you see for Space Required and Bitrate (with check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space".
d. Help to focus me in on
The video cuts out a 1:31:54 no matter what I do, the video I created is 2:04:15. I also never get a menu no matter what I do, even though it shows a menu in the creation area and when I preview it.
Do you mean that you play back the Timeline in the Edit area monitor and the playback refused to go beyond the 01:32:54;00 mark?
or
Where do you never get a menu...in the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc that you burn to disc using Share/Disc/DVD disc?
e. What happens if you make a copy of this project (File Menu/Save A Copy) and then use the copy to delete 1/2 the project? Can you
now burn that reduced Timeline to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc with menu without problem?
Please consider. If you get a far as what is indicated in your screenshot, you should be close to success.
Thanks.

Problems Creating Slideshow DVD using PSE 8.0

I have created a slideshow DVD in the past without problems. I have recently created a new slideshow of photos along with audio. It previews just fine in both PSE and Windows Movie Maker, but after I burned the DVD, only one song plays back when the DVD is in the TV.
Any suggestions?

Unless you have the combine programs Photoshop Elements & Premier Elements; there are limitations.
If you have other software; it’s possible to combine multiple tracks or play lists ant then attach them as a single file in the slideshow editor.

Problems creating PAL DVD containging clips with Encore CS5

Hi,
I was asked to create a menu for a DVD containing several movie clips which are mostly .FLVs and then some .AVIs. Though I'm complete new at all this DVD creating thing I got a nice working menu but when I built the DVD (which took about 45 mins) I got an error stating something about "no mpeg movie". The disk was burnt anayway (no way I could prevent that) but it doesn't work either on my pc or the DVD player.
Do I have to convert the clips before importing them into Encore? and if so, which software can i use for that? I have only limited internet access at the moment so I cant research the whole WWW for a solution. Therefore sorry for bothering you with such newbie stuff
anyway... thx for answers
M.
Oh, I'm using Productive Suite CS5 (english version on Win 7)

Depending on what is inside that AVI (see below) you should have no problems with Encore transcoding the AVI into the MPEG2/VOB format used on a DVD
I don't use FLV so have no idea if it will work with Encore (see further below)

Problem creating NTSC DVD

dear all,
I cannot manage to make NTSC DVD with ADOBE ENCORE.
It all went fine with the PAL version. Then I exported mpeg NTSC from the editing programme, which I added to a ENCORE NTSC new file, I added Wav audio files (which is requiered for NTSC in addition to mpeg), and add subtitles in Uff-8. ENCORE first transcodes the audio files, and then "general error" (errore generale in italian). I do not know what is wrong.
I tried to do it without subtitles, but error again.
I deleted the mpeg audio track, and only worked with the Wav. but error again
I add the wav in audio track 2, and linked all files to the audio track 2. But error again.
any idea please?
Thanks and good work!
matthieutje

Drop the MPEG Audio.
It's an optional format in NTSC (and in PAL these days) and not allowed as Audio Stream #1.
Use Dolby Digital or LPCM as Audio Stream 1 instead.

When creating a DVD face in Photoshop 13 my save options are limited to .PSE and .PDF. Why can I not save as a jpeg or other file format? This was never an issues in Elements 10 (my previous version).

I just recently purchased Elements 13. I am in the process of creating a DVD face for a video. The design is complete and I would like to be able to save it as a JPEG so I can use it in another program that prints my DVD's. The problem is that it only allows me to save the file as at PSE or a PDF. No other options are available. Why is this? I upgraded from Elements 10. In Elements 10 I have never had a problem saving this type of project as a JPEG. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

ANSWER FOUND!
Once I finished composing my question I went back and spent some time to figure out the problem. Rather than choosing the "save as" option, which doesn't work, or attempting to choose "export" (grayed out), the correct option is to choose "export creation", which is near the very bottom of the initial drop down options. That works! I still think it would make sense to have it as an option in the "save as" area.

Problem with burning a VCD and a DVD in Photoshop Elements 7

For some reason I can no longer burn a DVD or a VCD thru elements. When trying to burn a VCD on the Burn Screen Popup Screen under Select Destination Drive is blank and where you would select Drive speed nothing is in the drop down menu.
on creating a DVD when it comes up to burn disk under status no burners detected shows up.
I have created DVD's and VCDs before dont know why I'm having problem now.
I'm using Vista. In the past when using XP I believe I had to deselect DLA option on Drive where I burn but this option is not available to select.
I have no problem burning DVD or VCDs via windows.

Walter,
As Paul_LS states, the movies need to be combined in PE (or another editing program) due to the DVD-specs. They allow only one movie (in your case the combined Projects) per DVD disc. There are a few programs that can "hack" the DVD structure, but they are a lot of work, and usually do not yield the results that the user is seeking. This is not a limitation of PE.
You can also place your DVD Markers to the start of each of these movies, to all navigation in the DVD to each, should you wish.
Good luck,
Hunt

Adobe Premeire Elements 8 beginner - DVD, Book, Magazine help?

Hi,
I know the basis principles from other programs, but never used adobe premeire :- elements/photoshop, and just purchased the duel package.
I would like to start from scratch and learm properly. I've tried magazines and they all seem to be photoshop based which I do want to learn, but want to start with Adobe Premiere Elements 8 first.
Is there a magazine, which deals with the basics first then builds up to intermediate/advanced?
Or the same as a DVD?
Or should I just hit PC World and look at the array of books?, which again, most seem to photoshop based.
I've look at podcasts, and found a couple, but they are short and only cover a subject or two.
Any help / links would be much appreciated.
Kind regards
Andrew

Well, at the risk of sounding like I'm pounding my own drums, I've sort of spent the last five years laboring on this forum (with over 5,000 posts!), writing books and even creating my own web site to help people get up on running! I'd recommend you check some of it out.
Http://Muvipix.com is a site dedicated to helping people get up and running with the program. There's a gathering of probably the world's most knowledgeable and helpful people on the Community forum -- and you'll find lots of free tips, tutorials, royalty-free music and stock footage and motion backgrounds there -- even more (like over 1000) if you subscribe to the site. I've created a free set of tutorials called Basic Training with Premiere Elements that should definitely get up and running with the basics. There's an intermediate series of 10 more tutorials that you can access if you subcribe to the site, plus dozens more on specific subjects.
I've also written a number of books on both Premiere Elements and on the Photoshop Elements/Premiere Elements combo. They're available on Amazon.com and through the Muvipix.com store.
Check out those reviews on Amazon!

Newby problem - creating dvd from .wmv file

First - thank everyone/anyone in advance for helping me. Second - is there a basic video how-to somewhere to help me learn Premiere Elements? I am finding this program very hard to figure out on my own.
Here's the current problem - I created a slideshow with an audio track (a little music video) in Photoshop Elements 7, a .wmv file that I successfully uploaded to YouTube. The file is 50k KB, under 5 minutes.
Copied the wmv file to a DVD. When my Sony HDMI CD/DVD player said it couldn't play the disc, decided to try something else.
Imported the wmv file into Premiere Elements 7. Gave up trying to figure out how to create a title card, menu, etc, and since the video is just how I want it anyway, saved the file and tried burning it to disc.
Put in a Verbatim Lightscribe DVD+R disc, 4.7 GB, and prepared to burn from PE7. The program said that the disc status was not blank - which it is, so I burnt to a folder on my hard drive instead - 4.7GB, according to the choice I made from the program. From the folder, I burned the Video_ts file to the disc. It still doesn't play in my DVD player.
I have reformatted the DVD to start fresh and make sure it is blank, but PE7 continues to read it as not blank. Tried putting in a fresh disc newly opened, but the computer seems to format it automatically and still claims it is not blank. Regardless, it is blank.
What am I doing wrong and how can I properly burn this little video to a DVD? Just trying to show my grandmother the video.
Am working on HP HDX Premium laptop with Vista.
Thanks for any advice. I'm in and out so may not respond promptly.

There is so much to be looked at in Photoshop Elements 7 and Premiere Elements 7, used as standalone or intergrated.
I like to look at the Help PDF under the Help Menu of each and follow through from "Getting Started" and onward.
When you create a slideshow in Photoshop Elements 7, the preferred route to the DVD-VIDEO generated by Premiere Elements 7 is via Photoshop Elements 7 Slideshow Editor Output Option "Send To Premiere Elements". Once the slideshow (in a video form) arrives on the Premiere Elements Timeline, you then have an opportunity for further edits (if you want to) using the "Break Apart Adobe Photoshop Elements Slideshow" Command (right click video on Timeline and select that command).
In Premiere Elements 7, you can burn your slideshow to disc (DVD-VIDEO Format on DVD disc). It is important to remember that the player has to support the disc type as well as the format on that disc. Try using a different brand type and/or disc type like DVD-R and see how you do. If you burn to folder, you burn just the VIDEO_TS (all files) housed in the saved folder, using a Burn Video Images category in the 3rd party burn software such as Nero, Record Now. Do not use Make Data Disc, a common mistake. The "playable disc" category mentioned in an earlier thread is sort of a functional name rather than the category name you will find in most of these 3rd party burn softwares. If you need a step by step for Nero or Record Now, I will supply that on request.
But, you have a .wmv version of your slideshow that you want to get into DVD-VIDEO format on a DVD disc for playback on the TV.
This is my suggestion:
In Premiere Elements 7, after import to Timeline, Create Menus...
Share/Disc/Disc
Preset: NTSC Standard or Widescreen or PAL equivalent, depending on your location
check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space"
Disc Type: DVD-R (never used before disc, out of the box)
OR
In a software such as Nero, Record Now
Use Burn Video Files to DVD category to burn the VIDEO_TS folder to a DVD-R disc
OR
Use ImgBurn software (free download software which I find extremely "strange", but it works http://www.imgburn.com/)
Follow instructions for burning the VIDEO_TS to a DVD-R disc

Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 to create custom DVD Menu

Hi,
I know that starting from EL 11 it is possible through Photoshop EL 11 to create custom DVD Menu starting from scratch.
I fail finding on the Internet proper documentation for both creating it on Photoshop EL 11 and importing/using it on Premeiere EL 11.
I sometimes wish to create a Web DVD to put on the Internet and all I need is a nice background picture and a Play button.
how to do so? Where can I get detailed documentation and vidoes?
Thank you

The only problem that you might have, other than getting all of the naming and structural aspects correct (very specific), would be with the creation of Layer Sets in PSE. I am not sure if they have been added to PSE, and they are necessary for creating the Buttons. As I use Photoshop, and do not own PSE, I cannot tell you whether Layer Sets have been added.
This discussion, in the Photoshop Forum, goes into more detail on creating Menu Sets for PrE, in Photoshop: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2490846#2490846
I strongly recommend that one spend some time with one of the PrE Template Menu Sets, studying every aspect of what is reqired. Even though I create Menus (for Encore), and Menu Sets for PrE, I still will use one of those Templates as a "guide."
Now, if PSE does not yet have Layer Sets, one can still find an existing Template Menu Set, that comes close to what they wish to do, and heavily modify that in PSE.
One thing that trips up many DVD Menu designers, when they start out, is that NO Button may overlap any other Button, even by 1 pixel.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - if PSE has added Layer Set creation (it has been able to edit, just not create them, for many versions now), please post that information, as it will help me, in helping others.

Creating two-level dvd menu with Elements 9

Hi,
I am trying to burn a DVD (and later on Blu-Ray) using PRE 9. I can burn using a provided menu-template.
However, I would like to create a two (or multi) level menu for the disk. I would like to make the menu
look like this:
Play all
Year 1
Scene 1A
Scene 1B
Main Menu
Year 2
Scene 2A
Scene 2B
Main Menu
Year 3
I would like to burn DVD and Blu-ray disks with such menus.
How can I create such menus using Premier Element 9?
Thanks!
MKG

I am not clear on what you mean by a "two level DVD menu".
Premiere Elements disc menus come as a set of main menu and scene menus. But, it is possible to have the menu situation present with one main menu.
Apparently you want to have a Timeline of multiple movies, have the viewer select the one to watch first, and then, at the end of the movie selected, have the viewer taken back to the main menu. That all can be accomplished for DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc with the placement of stop marker at the end of each Timeline movie (except the last one). Each movie could have a scene marker at its beginning which will trace to a scene button in the scene selection page. But, there is a sacrifice in doing this. This scenario does not permit for a functional "Play All".
http://atr935.blogspot.com/2013/09/pe-dvd-menu-navigationplay-all-loss.html
In addition, the above is not applicable to AVCHD format on DVD disc or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc (with stop markers) because the players for those discs do not support stop markers.
Please review the above and then we can discuss the matter further.
Thank you.

Reduce your burn speed to 1/2 the Rating of the Media.
Disc Burner
If more than one supported disc burner is connected to your computer, choose one from the menu.
Preferred Speed
When you burn a CD, iTunes automatically uses the best recording speed for the CD. However, if your blank CD is rated for a slower speed than the maximum speed of your drive, or if you experience problems creating CDs, you may want to change the recording speed to match the CD’s rating.
Disc Format
Choose the type of disc you want to burn: Audio CD; MP3 CD; or Data CD or DVD.
Gap Between Songs
Choose the amount of silence, if any, between songs.
Use Sound Check
To have all songs on the disc play at the same volume, select this option.
Include CD Text
To include information that CD players in some vehicles can display, select this option.

Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk.
My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standard Definition, now it just defaults to Standard Definition.(I'm using Apple's DVD Player)
Can I fix this problem?

Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
IOFireWireAVC.kext
IOFireWireFamily.kext
IOFireWireIP.kext
IOFireWireSBP2.kext
I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?

Problems creating a multi language DVD

I'm creating a DVD which has multiple video files in 4 different languages. Some of the video content is the same, but as some of the videos also have on screen text that has to be in a specific language, I cannot just use the default language settings in DVDSP.
I've tried a couple of things:
Uploading duplicate versions of the video files that have on screen text, and then uploading multiple audio tracks to the files which share a common video asset. I then pointed the buttons of the relevant menu to the video asset and the correct language for that button. This was working great, but then I realised that I could only set a single end point on the video. As I have multiple languages, this meant that even if the correct audio played, at the end I could only send the user back to one menu, which wouldn't be in the right language. Have I missed anything obvious here? Is there a way of setting end points that relate to a specific audio track?
Secondly I tried using the DVD language settings to tag each audio track - but the problem here is that some of my video files are unique to a specific language, and this option relies on only having a single video asset, and multiple audio streams. Again, am I missing something obvious?
The only solution I can currently see it to upload all the video files as duplicates (therefore uploading the same video file 4 times) and crush the bit-rate right down. Unfortunately the quality loss is quite dramatic - but at the moment it's the only solution that I know will work.
Any advice or options that are worth pursuing would be really appreciated. If the duplicate video files is the only solution, any tips on the best codec or ways to maximise bit rate would be really appreciated.

Not sure if you text is in the footage itself or not. Sounds like a not? You may need to use something like stories to route the footage to the proper places. (If the clips are the same lengths there are other tricks to try.)
In this [link|http://dvdstepbystep.com/stories_details.php] there is information on using stories with different subtitles and audio tracks and [here|http://dvdstepbystep.com/audioset.php] is a general way to use scripts to track preferences.
Using those techniques you can send people back to where they came from. In other words in the second link it is audio on/audio off. But you can do the same thing and put languages in there, so based on the selection you can read it and send them back. Or if using stories, you can set the end jump for the story back to where to go.
