Unfortunately that mediainspector link you gave me is dead. Here is a shot of Adobe Encore trying to do its thing:
As you can see, it's making progress (when I left the office yesterday, the bottom progress bar was in line with the second "s" in "Build Progress"), but it's so slow/buggy that it basically appears to not be doing anything 99% of the time, and then for a few seconds it has some actual activity.
The source .mov files have H.264, Linear PCM, Timecode listed under "Codecs" in the Get Info screen.
EDIT: The AME program is doing basically the same thing, except it appears to be moving a bit faster (still says 50:33:57 remaining on the timer). It just seems like the problem is that the encoding/burning/whatever is hanging on something for hours at a time after only a few seconds of encoding. I'm sure if it would just not hang up and just encode then the project would have been finished last Monday when I started...
