Render Process Will Not Complete

PTCX wrote on 9/21/2013, 12:22 PM

I have DVD Architect Studio v5.0 , build 186.Computer specs are above that required.

When I try to burn a project The rendering progress stops when the Making Disc progress is at 30% and the Rendering Progress is at 92%.
This is consistent and repeatable every time I try to burn a project.
The content in the current project is only enough to fill 47% of the disc
I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no change.
I updated to latest and the problem persists..

Can I burn the saved DVD project another way besides the Make DVD button?

Can anybody suggest a DVD authoring program that will work with saved project files built in DVD Architect?

I have tried Nero but it won't work with the project file.
I also have corel DVD factory but that is incapable of producing a full screen image.Always letter boxed.

I would prefer to finish the project with DVD Architect if possible.

What are you using as your source file?

Is it a DVD-ready MPEG from Vegas or Movie Studio? If so, it should require little or no rendering at all.

Do you get an error message when it stops?

How much HDD space is available where the image is being created (before burning)?

I have the same issue. With larger projects (16GB bluray) the project will get to a point where the time remaining continues to count down but the progress bar stops. The project never finishes rendering.

I have an i7 Windows 7 machine with 32GB of RAM. My temp directory is set to a separate SSD than the source media. Additionally, the OS is on its own SSD as well.

This appears to only be a problem with larger projects for me as I am able to burn a small 6GB project just fine. Part of this project includes recompression of some video and audio files. This problem occurs in both DA 5.0 and DA Pro 6.0.

Make sure that you render with a DVDAS compliant template (DVD or BluRay) and you'll have no problems. I would also suggest that you steer clear of the Burn option in the Make DVD (or Blu-ray Disc) selection. Stick to the Prepare option then burn using a generic burning application such as Imgburn.
Works for me every time.
