How do I make a DVD with my set up and Adobe CC?
 

I see the instructions to Dynamic Link to Encore CS6 but all I have is CS5 before I upgraded to CC and I can't Dynamic Link to that. I don't see where I can install it from the cloud either. Is my only option to go to Media Encoder and make a Mpeg DVD2?

Thanks

Hi Art,

Correct, no DL with your setup. Just install whatever version of Encore you have alongside CC, then export to "MPEG-2 DVD" from Premiere. Import results (.m2v and .wav files) into Encore using "Import > As Timeline".

Thanks

Thanks Jeff,
Kinda thought so. Still not bad and doable.

as part of cc, you can download CS6. Adobe suggest installing premiere, which also installs Encore, then deleting premiere (or leaving it of course). You don't have the dynalink (big shame) but you will have encore CS6 - which is very, very close. I have carried on using encore CS5 which I had, and have not downloaded the free CS6.

Paul,
Humm...I didn't read that anywhere. Musta missed it.I think I'm going to carry on like you. I've been with Adobe for a ton of years and CS5 has been the most stable on my rig by far.
Thanks

This brings me to another problem. I'll post on a different thread but I have exceeded my disc capacity on my standard 4.7GB DVD. My project is 6.65. never done that before and I have no idea where to cut. BUT I have never used media encoder for MPEG DVD2 before either.

Could you go with a dual-layer DVD?

Mark,
I just checked my burner and it does do dual layer. Never done it before so I'm a little slow. I usually add artwork to the cover but I haven't found any dual layer ones like that or if they even make any.

Another Freshman question, do the people I make the DVD's for have to have a dual layer DVD player to play them?

Thanks

Art,
You can get the single-sided, dual-layer DVDs with plain white printable surface. If you use printed, stick-on labels, you can do that also, just do a search for dual-layer DVD and you'll see there's a wide variety. I've played them in several different players and I think I only had trouble with one, an older laptop. I used to have to split my large projects across two DVDs, but the cost of dual-layer media has gone down and makes it a better option for me. You might be thinking about the double-sided DVDs, which you obviously cannot label. I haven't tried those, don't even recall seeing them for sale.

All is fine. Changed the Admin. setting for the DL version and it worked fine. Lowered the bit rate to come in just under 4.7 including motion menus and it's great! I can't tell the difference on my TV between the two.

Thanks for the help
