Video Studio 11-Can¡¬t open DVD-Authoring Assistent

Hello,

I am using Video Studio 11plus. I have installed all the hotfixes, patches and updates existing for the Program including DirectX_August 2007_redist, after having problems creating chapters in the DVD-Authoring menu.

After reinstalling the Programm on a new PC with Windows XP SP 3 and rendering a video, I suddenly can not even start the DVD-Authoring-assistent. The Programm hangs itself up and I have to force the PC to end the program.

Any help for my problem? :roll:

What do you mean? The Share step?

Also, you may want to re-check your DirectX. The latest version is November 2008.

I updated DirectX with no effekt.

After starting the program, I start the Video Studio Editor. After importing video files and go the edit-step I can press the button to make a video-file. This works fine.

After this work ist done, and importing the rendered video-file, I now want to press the button to make a disk.

From now on it lasts about 4 seconds, then a error message appears: "a error occured, drwtsn.32 exe has to be enden". Then the program hangs and can not be closed.

Even after a restart of the PC and the program, and not importing any video-file, going once more to the edit step and pressing the "disc make-button" the same error-message shows up. :(

This is is an error/debugging program, Dr. Watson, that is included with Windows XP. For some reason you're having a problem, not only with VS, but with Dr. Watson.

Since you're able to create a video file from your project, but VS falls over when trying to open the burn module, I would be interested in knowing if you have any other DVD authoring programs installed, that has a Drag-to-disc, or Drag and Drop burning application. Corel does have such a utility called Quick Drop, that comes with DVD MovieFactory. Nero and Roxio also provide such utilities. The problem with them, is that they can hi-jack your DVD burner, and not allow any other programs to have access..

Yes, I have installed NERO.

But I was finally able to open the "make disk"-menu:
After starting VS, I pressed the button " Movie-Assistant" instead of "Video Studio-Editor". After importing my rendered Video-File, I was guided to a new sheet, where I was able to start the "Create Disc"-button and it worked perfect.

It seemes there is somewhere a problem when I try to start the Cisc Creator directly from the Video Studio Editor? :P
