I'm an amateur still on Premiere CS4.2.1 and have been trying to make a 2 1/2 hour film to save as a DVD.
I have something in PPro which I am ok with, and seems when I preview it in that to run just fine. I have also made an Encore project with appropriate menus, chapter markers and whatnot.
If I ask Encore to render the DVD project it returns (about 28 hours later!) with a mostly ok VIDEO_TS folder, but around some (but not all) of the chapter marks some sections of film have been offset about 1/3 to the bottom-right corner. This offset seems about the same amount each time it happens, and when it doesn't happen it is all quite fine.
The film makes use of zoom-type effects, where I've cropped/zoomed in digitally c.f the original film, and I wonder if that has anything to do with this? I used the 'transform' effect to do this with Position and Scale changes along the timeline.
I have now downloaded PPro CC trial, but as it doesn't include Encore I'm a bit stuck. Has anyone any ideas why this might be happening?
If I can somehow get a good render of the film, perhaps using Media Encoder directly, can I tell encore to use that instead without losing all the chapter marks from the original sequence?
Thanks
Ruth
