I cant burn DivX Project to dvd?

You can burn DivX projects to DVD but if you have DivX menus, you'll only be able to see them if you play it on a DivX Ultra certified DVD player or on your computer with DivX Player software.

If you are having a technical issue with burning a DivX project to DVD then you'll have to be more specific.

1. Is there any limit to the size of the DivX Ultra file, I tried file with menus greater than 2GB was not working on my DVD Player but was working fine on DivX Player ( software ).

2. Is there a way to link two external divx files via the divx ultra menu so I may have two independent files and a separate file only for menu.

1. I'm not sure why it's not working on your DVD player...Do DivX Ultra files that are less than 2GB work fine? I think there was a 4GB limit due to the use of the avi format, but I'm not sure if that is still true.

2. When you make a DivX Ultra file, it just takes all the videos and menus and creates one big DivX file, so no, it's not possible to keep all the files separate. That's just how the format is unfortunately.

Hi everyone,

when i read my DVD on my DVD player it stops at the end of the first track without going to the top menu.

PAL mpeg II 4:3 with a firstrack & 4 Main Tracks
Individual BGM on top menu & Track
motion menu on Track 1

I had NO ERROR during the dvd creation process and everything seemed to be OK.
Furthermore any soft player (MAC or PC ) reads it without any problem.

Did anyone have to deal with the same problem ???
Is my DVD player to old ??? (it's not one of the latest generation device)

I just upgraded to the latest version, but in the last version, when I was finalizing the menu, when I wanted to move the play button down or up when it was unlocked, it would move in like spaces of three and always the same. In this version, it is able to just be dragged. I hope that makes sense. There has to be a setting for this I think.

There is a snap to grid option in the menu editor which is probably activated. It's one of the buttons in the lower right corner of the screen.

That worked..thank you!

Using Source Wizard - "From a DVD, BD, ..." - "From a Drive" option, I selected my DVD Drive and after some time popup a error message box saying "Not Analyzed".
The title of this windows is "VMELib".

I have only OK button.

Off course, the dvd content didn´t added to my project and I don´t know what is the problem.

I tried loading the content from a folder in the hard disk and it happened again.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks.

Is it a copy-protected DVD? That might be the problem.

Or it might be corrupted data on the DVD. Can you play it/import it with other software such as Nero, Roxio, etc.? Try playing it with VLC player and see if you can extract the MPEG data with it if possible.

All the DVDs are mine. Was recorded with my Sony DVD recorder.

In the past, I made this action lot of times, but with Windows 7 64 bits is the first one.

I´ll try with VLC o Roxio... If you have any other suggestion to me, please tell me.

Thanks

I play with VLC and "Codec Information" menu item, it says:

Type: Video
Codec: mpgv
Resolution: 720x480
Display resolution: 720x480
Frame Rate:29.97...

Type:Sound
Codec: a52
Channels:3F2R/LFE
Sample Rate: 48000Hz
BitRate:448 kb/s

With DVD Decrypter (www.dvddecrypter.com) I could extract the good part of the mini dvd. There was around 10 bad cells in the content.

After that, I could import correctly the VOB video files.

Thanks.

I have perosnally emailed support to see if a update will be made for creation of h.264 bluray disks, this is what it said :

"Request - support for authoring H.264 bluray disks without reencoding to MPEG2. Tmpgenc authoring works 4 work great creating mpeg2 bluray disks without reencoding when a compliant bluray mpeg2 file is used. However why is their no option to create h.264 bluray disks ? i use the spurs engine to harware encode mpge2 and h264. But using mpeg2 the video bitrate must be used at max (32Mb/s) for it to look any good. please add support for creation h264 blurays **without reencoding to mpeg2** in a future release. Also can you please tell me if this is currently being worked on, thought about or going to be implemented in a future release ???"

hopefully they get back to me, if and when they do i will post up the response.

regards Marty.

PS: i think the more people that do this the more chances we will get h264/AVC bluray disc creation with authoring works.

i have received an email back from tmpgenc staff regarding this matter and it reads :

"It is in our plan to offer H.264 format for BDMV output but it will take
time to implement, and at this time Smart Rendering is rather difficult."

Yours Sincerely,

So, 10 months down the line and they still haven't got it sorted!!!

How hard can it be to implement?

Its seems they are still iving in the DVD age with MPEG2 encoding, yet everyone else has moved on.

I have a track that has a 12 sec slide show and then 1 min 43 sec video clip. I can get my recoreded audio into the slide show ok. But when I insert the audio into the video clip (next within the track)the video clip audio starts part way through. I think it is starting 12 sec into the video clip. How can I get the video clip audio to start at the beginning of the video clip?

Should all my audio tracks be joined into one audio track and just inserted into the beginning the total track.

I am making a tutorial DVD

Thanks for your help.

I just wonder is it possible to add more than 2 subtitles to dvd video project in TMPGEnc Authoring works4.
thanks

I had a question on what is the BEST setting that is the quickest and best quality for the Motion Search Precision settings. Also, does bumping up the quality % in the track settings do anything to the video that is very knowticeable? Thanks! :D

Is it still possible in version 4 to create a DVD where the video content is in VCD format and stays in VCD format? It worked with version 3.

I have a simple Title page with 8 clips on one track. Each clip has
the option of either Stereo or 5.1 embedded in the clip (added with the
multi audio function). I'd like to add a couple of audio buttons to the
Title page, one to select the default 5.1 and one to select Stereo, but
I see now way to add buttons to an existing custom template. Is this possible?

Thanks,

-Craig

If you have multiple audio sources, an audio button should automatically appear on your track page. You can't manually add an audio button; it simply checks to see if there are multiple audio tracks and then adds the audio button for that track menu.

Well, all my clips have a 5.1 and a Stereo audio file associated (Stereo is the secondary audio file), but my simple 1 page Title page (which has all the clips
on it) does not show an audio button, nor, can I get one to appear using
the DVD menu Global Settings (there is a check mark to display Audio button on page but when I check this, it doesn't add anything to the page. Interestingly, when I go to simulate, and use the buttons associated with playing the DVD, there is an Audio button on the controller with which I can switch between the audio streams, but most DVD controllers don't have such a
button, and instead rely on an on screen button to switch back and forth.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-Craig

The audio button only seems to appear on track menus, so make sure you choose "Track menu only" or "Top and Track menu" when creating a custom menu. If you create a title page for your track menu, the audio button will show up there, otherwise it should show up in the track menus.

Does this tool suports creation of multi angle track ?
If so i can i do that ?

Thanks

No, it does not support multi-angle tracks. Would be cool though.

FWIW: DVD-lab Pro does, but lacks some other capabilities found in AW.

Hi Everyone,

I do not want to use the audio made while filming. Because this is a tutorial DVD I want to voice over the actual recorded video footage itself. Can I do this within this program?

Or do I have to record my voice and then import that voice file into the program?

Thanks for your advice

You will have to record your voice-over audio track separately in some other app and then import it into Authoring Works 4.

In the clip properties window, you can select your VO track as the audio 1 source instead of the default (which should be the movie itself, and thus the original audio). With the new audio track selected, the original audio should not be present.

Thanks. What a pain not being able to record in the same program.
