Timeline size setting and Blu-Ray burning - Does it have to be compliant?
 

I have not used Vegas much recently. I use Edius primarily and when you choose project settings, the setting has to be Edius Blu-Ray compliant or the option to burn a disk is grayed out.

I thought I would try dropping a UHD file on the Vegas timeline, with UHD project settings, to see what would happen. It was a very short clip.

Clicked burn to Blu-Ray.

Once it slowly rendered and started to write, my burner was freaking out making noises I had never heard before. It never actually burned and just froze at 47% all the while making chirping/squeaking noises.

Had to shut my computer down to get the burner to stop.

Is that normal?

P.S. Will not try it again.

I've never burned a Blu-ray before but every post I've read says that the file has to be compliant or it won't work - as you already found out :)

Thank you. Live and learn...

I always “burn” to an ISO file, then do the actual burning with ImgBurn. Never fails.

I have used Imgburn for years. Just recently took a playable Blu Ray disk, created an ISO file, then burned to another disk, and the copy was not playable. Tried again and the copy was not playable. Its the first time that has ever happened. Same procedure I have always used.

If it was a commercial disc, it was probably copy protected.

No. It was one I create from the timeline.

That is strange. I would inform the author of ImgBurn. He is good at fixing things in his software.
