PLEASE HELP!!!

[gordon_fan_24]

I have a video that was captured from a Canon ZR-60 miniDV camera. (same one it was filmed on) the video is an hour long, with about 5 transitions and a opening title,not too much. I rendered it as a MPEG-2 with a VBR of 8000 2 pass encode. The video and audio stop, it appears to freeze. Similar to a problem I had with .mov files, but this is different. It came directly from a miniDV camera, and this time, the audio stops too. What should I be doing with my settings, I read the reccommended procedures, and I am still confused. I need this done ASAP, as the group is waiting for their videos to arrive sometime next week, and I need to make copies for all, so I should have the video completed this weekend. HELP!!!

Why don't you render it using CBR (maybe choose a slightly lower bit rate) as a test and see if that version has the same problem or if it plays okay.

Good luck,
