DVDA problems and 1GB limit
I'm using DVDA 4.0 and I have two questions for all you experts out there. I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro to render my video-files. I usually render to DV-AVI.
1. I have several large files that fit onto the disc. When I let DVDA take care of making the DVD-files (the VOBS) some of the files get jerky, sort of strobing effect or lagging. Why this happens to some files I do not know, anybody have an idea? 2. To solve this problem, I let APP render the vob-files. Since I do not want DVDA to render the files for me, I have to split the files larger than 1GB myself. This results in a pause between the files. How can I avoid this? Up to know I have had to fade to black at a natural point in the timeline and split the file there, but I know there has to be a smarter solution. Please help! |
Why aren't you rendering to Mpeg2 out of Premiere? That's the native format for DVDs.

VOB files *ARE* limited to 1 Gig in size. If you render to a DVD compliant MPEG2 file (which can be larger than 1 Gig), DVD Architect will NOT re-render it but will simply convert it to the proper VOB files before burning. If you render to DV-AVI, you should be able to render the whole thing to a single file (assuming NTFS file system) and DVD Architect would then convert it to the proper VOB files with no pauses between sections.

In the "Insert Media" dialog box, I can't even see mpeg or 2mv as valid file-types...

If MPG and M2V are not even showing up as pickable options, there is definitely something wrong.

Yes, the DVD Archtect presets have the audio turned off under the assumption you'll then want to render the audio separately to AC3. However, you can go to the audio tab, turn it back on, and the audio will be included and accepted by DVD Architect. However, you'll lose some quality as the audio will be decompressed before being recompressed into AC3.

You need to let Premiere create that DVD compliant file first. Select File --> Export ---> Adobe Media Encoder, then select a MPEG2 template. |
If DVD Architect 4.0 works and 4.5 doesn't show those options, I'd try reinstalling 4.5.
