Hello:

I get this error message when I try to render my AVI files to MPEG. Can anyone tell me what this means?

Thanks in advance

can you supply more details?

Are in create video file or in create disc?
Is it from files or from the timeline?
VS5/6/7/8/9?
What is your target MPEG file?
What is your AVI files' specs? Are they all the same?

Hello:

I am using VS9. All video was captured using VS9 capture and my ATI All-In-Wonder card. Capture seems to go fine. I captured 3 separate videos. Added titles and transitions. I then tried to render them as NTSC DVD. Part way through the render I get the error message in my subject line. I have no idea what this means.

Thanks

A common reason for faults in the burning process is following the wrong procedure. The recommended procedure is outlined in the top sticky post on this Board. To summarise, you should NOT be going straight from the project in the timeline to the burn module (Share > Create Disc > DVD) which it sounds as though you are doing. INSTEAD, you should use the preferred method which is to first produce a DVD-compatible mpeg-2 file (Share > Create Video File > DVD). Once you have this file, close your current project, and then click Share > Create Disc > DVD. This will open the burning module. Insert your DVD-compatible file(s). Make sure you click on ‘Do not convert compliant mpeg-2 files’ in the little cog-wheel icon in the bottom left of the burning module screen. Add your menu, chapters etc, and burn either the DVD itself or produce a disc image or Video_TS folder if you intend to burn more copies later.

If you are not using this method, then the wide experience here is that you are asking for trouble.

I don't get this error when burning a DVD, I get the error when converting to NTSC DVD. I have my project which is made up of captured AVI clips. I have transitions between the clips and a title. No audio tracks, overlay tracks, etc. I select Share and select NTSC DVD. The clips are LFF which is the same in the NTSC DVD template. The viseo starts to render and then I get the error.
