Hi Encore Experts,
I’m using Encore CS6 on a 2008 Mac Pro on OS 10.7.5. I’ve got a project with many small movies that requires burning a dual layer disc (4.9GB used). All menus, buttons, links work fine in preview.
Encore does build the disc but upon playing the disc, at the point I assume Encore decided to Auto Layer Break the DVD-9 (using Memorex DVD+R), the movie freezes; it sometimes skips downstream after a long pause. Either way, it’s no good.
In the Encore build menu, after setting disc to 8.54GB dual layer, the check manual button can be selected BUT NO LAYER BREAK MENU APPEARS so I can’t force a break which is what I want to do.
Upon reading other discussions, I’ve built a VIDEO_TS folder, but can’t figure out what to do next to try building the disc with a manual layer break. I’ve seen suggestions to build a disc using ImgBurn which is supposed to allow for choosing your break point, but to be honest, I can’t figure out where and how to do this. I tried “Burn xxx” from the VIDEO_TS folder but it created an unplayable disc.
What am I doing wrong?
Any any advice and step-by-step instructions is greatly, greatly appreciated. Of course, deadline is approaching fast...
Thanks.
