VideoStudio won't write more than 3 minutes to disc

Post by reversebottle »

Hello,

After burning through 6 Blu-Ray discs with no luck, I need to ask for help. I have a roughly 28-minute project that I want to burn to a blank Blu-Ray. However, every time I've tried, it appears that only the first 3 minutes and 27 seconds of the video are written to the disc. Even more so, my PS4 won't play it (which worked fine with another project I worked on). I really have no idea what to do, the video is simply a slideshow of pictures and music. I'm on Windows 10 Home Edition x64-bit.

As a side note, when it's burning to the disc, the "Converting title" phase takes almost an hour and a half, while the actual writing of the video lasts about 5 minutes and ends. It's been a very frustrating experience overall and it's starting to ruin my experience with Corel.

Thank you for any help.

Welcome to the forums,

First you need to provide us with more information so we might be able to determine what is causing your problem.
1. What version of VideoStudio?
2. What steps are you taking to burn your disc? Are you jumping straight into the burn module from VideoStudio's editor, or are you first creating a video file from your project?
3. You're creating a video slideshow, so what is the Project Properties?
4. What format of Audio files being used?
5. We need more of your computer specs? We don't know if you have enough "free space" for VideoStudio to work with, or sufficient RAM, so please provide more info.

Hi Ron,

Here's the information:
1. I'm using VideoStudio Ultimate X9.5 (19.5.0.35)
2. I've tried a couple different methods. I've attempted to use VideoStudio's burn module to write directly to the disc, as well as first creating a disc image and burning the image to the disc. (Interestingly the disc image is significantly smaller than the project size (556MB compared to around 2.5GB)
3. Under Project Properties I have "project format" set to "Blu-Ray" (which I assumed I needed to since I want to burn it to a Blu-Ray disc).

The information box reads as follows:
MPEG Transport Stream Files
24-bit, 1920x1080, 29.97 fps
Upper Field Firstt
(HDMV-NTSC), 16:9
H.264 Video
Video data rate: Variable (Max. 20000 kbps)
Audio data rate: 384 kbps
Dolby Digital Audio, KHz 2/0(L,R)

4. The audio files are all either .wma or .mp3
5. Here are the specs:

OS: Windows 10 Home Edition
Processor: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Processor, 3.30 GHz
Installed Ram: 8.00 GB
System Type: x64-bit
Hard Drive Capacity: 476 GB

Thank you for your help!
