I'm consistently getting fatal errors during the PREPARATION phase of DVDA (DVDA 2a, to be specific). My project had been rendered to a DVDA-NTSC stream, plus AC3, from Vegas. This is a new one on me... I've successfully done quite a few projects in the past.
While Preparing the DVD files, DVDA produces this not-helpful message during the burning of the last object (i.e., object 4 of 4 in my project; the menu objects have already been prepared OK):
-------------
Warning: An error occurred while writing a file.
The reason for the error could not be determined.
-----------
DVDA did not give any error or warning messages when I started the Preparation process.
I tried preparing again, to a different hard disk, but DVDA gave me the same error.
This happened on my last TWO projects (over an hour long each, but the MPEG plus AC3 files don't come even close to exceeding 4+ gigabytes).
I completely re-rendered the first -project in Vegas, TWICE (a long, long waste of time), and it failed again in DVDA the first time but finally worked OK in DVDA the second time.
My second project is now stalled-out, unable to continue.
The file is one movie, with 13 chapters.
