Did you export from PR? How long in minutes is each video?

Re: Encore inflates file size enormously on Blu Ray
so...every movie is around 125 minutes long. The files itlself are around 1,5 -2 GB. If I wanted to burn them with burnaware eg, it shows that there are still 25 GB available. Only Encore makes files enormously bigger than they really are. I exported one movie using Media Encoder to H.264 Blu-Ray which resulted in a 12 GB file.

Re: Encore inflates file size enormously on Blu Ray
That's a pretty low datarate for 720p?
No matter, the reason Encore is making big files is that a) you are importing files that are not BD legal and b) you are allowing Encore to determine datarate and therefore size ("automatic" transcode setting). The preferred method is to determine your datarate needs and export from PR/AME (or whatever your editing platform) as BD legal so Encore will not transcode. Or, if you are going to let Encore retranscode, modify the transcode setting to provide the datarate/size constraint.

This implies to me that you understand the method used by some: using autoactivate to move from one menu to another one that is identical except for the appearance you want.

Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
Hi everyone
I am having an issue with Encore, it just crashes without error message after a time transcoding/building a DVD-DL disk.
I checked the forums and could only find a fix for Windows (the "run as an admin" option). The length of my files is also less than 80 characters.
The assets are set as "don't transcode", as I did it with AME before. Here is a screenshot from my project/flow:
I work on a OSX El Capitan with Encore CS6.
I apologize for asking this again, but I could not find an answer yet. Maybe somebody can point me in the right direction?
Thank you very much in advance!

Re: Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
The closest Mac equivalent to the WIn "run as administrator" is making sure all permissions for anything Encore (all folders, subfolders, files) are set as read/write.
Try building to a folder or image just to make sure it is not a burner issue.
I assume the "transcoding" during the build is the motion menu.
More with BD than DVD, some users get odd results (but not usually a build error) when using end actions on menus other than "stop." Not clear form the flowchart, but why doesn't the german selection on main menu go to the german menu, rather than having the menu end action take it there?
I would create a simple, single layer test project just to make sure all is working, then a simple dual layer.
If this is one long timeline, Encore may have trouble finding a layer break, but there appear to be plenty of chapter breaks, so I don't think that is your problem with the build.

Re: Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
Hi Stan,
Thank you very much for your answer! Actually, what is transcoded is the audio... The option "don't transcode" is not available, both for the stereo wave file (for the animated menu) and the ac3 surround files for the videos... They are set to automatic. When I try to "transcode now", a pop-up undefined error message comes up.
Might this be the problem? It is strange... I used exactly the same audios for a single layer DVD a while ago and everything worked.
As you said, I did a single layer test, and indeed it did not work out... Nor did when I tried to create an image.
Any ideas..?

Re: Encore inflates file size enormously on Blu Ray
Let me guess, movies were perhaps downloaded .mkv files before you converted to .mp4?
Blu-ray video uses a much higher bitrate than download movies, therefore the resulting size on disc will be inflated. Don't expect to fit 10+ hours of video onto a BD-R, not meant to work that way.
Thanks

Re: How to find layer break position
Thank you very much Stan for the tip. I just contacted Neil and sent him the links to the DDP files.

Re: How to find layer break position
Hey Ruben
Apologies for the silence but been in the middle of a large project.
Thanks to Stan - well forwarded, that man. I got the DDP set & tested DVD 1, and all is clean & green.
I have emailed you the analysis results, as HTML, IA and XML plus signatures, just in case, and all should be fine at the factory.
You have my personal email now in case of hassle, but there should be no problems with the images if all 4 were done the same way

Hi Neil
Yesterday I've sent the replication company the link to the DDP and ISO files. Unfortunately they do not have software to verify DDP files, but only ISO. They said ISO are as reliable as DDP. They can replicate from both DDP and ISO. I'm not sure whether to ask them to replicate from ISO or DDP.
Thank you very much for all your help. Much appreciated.
ISO files are not the same as DDP - there is no error checking in an ISO, and out of sheer curiosity I do wonder what they are running as analysis if they cannot check a DDP set, as the Eclipse ImageAnalysis software IS the factory standard package, and can check an ISO as well as a DDP set & even a BDCMF (if you spend even more cash.....)
ISO files do not contain Layer Break information - the output from IMGBurn adds this as a .dvd file with the .iso image file.
I have seriously never, ever heard of a replication facility that cannot accept DDP.
Weird.
All seems good to me on the DDP set though, as said before.

Re: Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
Back at my notes, and this may be helpful (or not). It is not specific to Encore. But I see that it has been revised last July - and substantially restructured.

I would explore why the a3c is not DVD ready. No point to bringing in an a3c that is not. I would look at it with mediainfo. I would try a wav. What is your project audio type?

Re: Encore inflates file size enormously on Blu Ray
Also, you appear to be using a "720p 30" file. That does not appear to be BD legal:

Re: Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
Thanks a lot for your answer Stan, this is helpful. I did get encore to start burning a double layer DVD with the ac3 audios (though transcoded during the building). The problem now is that I only can do it without subtitles, so it might be another problem there.
I am working with two audio versions with 7 subtitle files each, imported in the adobe encore txt format. When the building process finishes transcoding the audios correctly, it crashes now while trying to build the subtitles... The crash is different now, still no error message, but the program just freezes there for hours and the "waiting rainbow" mac mouse appears and does not allow to make further changes. I know this is a new subject, but would anybody have a suggestion?
Thank you very much for your help and I apologize for the subject change!

Re: Encore crashes upon building a double layer DVD
I would create a test project and try with one subtitle. In part, I'd be looking for one or more subtitle import files with incorrect formatting.

Re: DVD is bad quality but original video isn't
Okay, but is this being output as an MPEG2 file? I am having the quality issue, but another problem is that I then upload the file to Encore, burn the DVD, and then nothing is on the DVD. The DVD player program comes up, but there's nothing there. I need a fuller picture of what settings entirely I need to use when exporting from Premiere Pro and what I (potentially) need to do differently in Encore in order to keep the quality of my video.

Disc with more ROM content than VIDEO content
Hello,
I am building a project with 3.5GB of video content and 4.8GB of "extras" in ROM content. The total disc size is 8.3GB which should fit on a dual layer disc - however, the ROM content needs to span the layers. Is this possible? I get disc errors when I try to burn.
Thanks,
Craig

Re: DVD is bad quality but original video isn't
When you say nothing is on the DVD, you mean it doesn't play? Perhaps the video is not linked up to the menu, so it's there but is not accessible. Have you tried a regular DVD or Blu-ray player unit, rather than a computer software player? Put the DVD in a computer and just try and open it with File Explorer and see what files are on it - should be a VIDEO_TS folder and some .vob files within it.
So let's start at the beginning. What format is the video you are starting with, like AVCHD 1080p60 or something? Once we know that, we can suggest the proper export settings. You will be using the MPEG-2 DVD format, but beyond that it helps to know the source video specs and the duration of the video as well in planning the export.
Thanks
