This is driving me nutz. I am following the VS11 Plus Share directions and trying to burn a dvd from a vsp movie.
It creates vob files and when I put the dvd-rdl 2.4x disc into the Phillips
dvd+rw dvd8631 I keep getting bad disc
i did the Share and clicked on the include vsp, but it still did not work.
Need a garu to tell me what I may be doing wrong.
Oh, and on the vob, i can play it using VLC (which is a more powerful program than WMP). But WMP only gets audio (so this may be a codec problem).
Help
Bob

There have been quite a lot of complaints about that particular burner. A lot of people have found that although it is supposed to be rated to play -R discs, it seems to prefer +R/+RW discs. That is not uncommon with some burners, which have a preferences for certain types of discs and certain brands. So you might want to think about buying some other blanks...
I should also correct a misapprehension on your part. You talk about trying to burn from a 'vsp movie'. A .vsp file is not a movie/video file. It is a project file which is only a small road-map sort of a file which tells Video Studio what video files have been included in a project, where they are on the computer and what editing has been done to them. While it is of course possible to burn a disc from such a file, a lot of people have trouble when they try it. It is better, after you have finished editing the project, to first render it to a DVD compatible mpeg-2 file (Share > Create File > DVD). Not that this is only creating a file, and does not actually burn a DVD.
After you have made this new file of your project, you close the existing project by going to File > New Project. Don't worry about a name for the new project -- the objective is just to clear the editing timeline. Then when you have a clean screen, you go to Share once again but this time you choose Share > Create Disc > DVD. Then you insert your new mpeg-2 file in the burning timeline, build your menu and burn (if you can find a disc which your burner is happy with, of course!)
One other thing you could try, instead of actually burning a disc in VS, is instead to create a DVD Folder (Video_TS) or Disc Image (.iso) file. This is done on the last page of the burning module, where you un-tick the 'create a disc' option and select one of the others instead (click on the downward pointing double arrow to see them if they aren't visible). That way you can preview the DVD as it will finally be using software DVD player. You actually burn the DVD Folder or .iso image file using another program like Nero. It will also allow you to burn as many copies as you like.
