My friend encountered render error when burning his project to DVD. below is the details:

camera: Canon HF10

transcoded AVCHD to HVCPRO using Mainconcept AVCHD to DVCPRO transcoder

timeline properties: PAL4:3 and PAL 16:9

After select burning to DVD, the rendering process stop at about 10%.

when he export to mpeg2, he encounter render error also around 10%. when he export to avi, the duration of the exported clip will always be 2 mins. however, there's no mark in and out being set.

the media path is set to D drive in which there is still 800G+ left. however, the system drive left only 20G+ (Could it be the reason?)

thanks for the help.

Check the render directory. Make sure it's not on the system drive.

yup, the render directory is pointed to D drive in which still has 800G+ left.

OK, then it's not a disk space issue. Check the timeline and remove any gaps between the clips. Also check the audio properties and make sure that you're using 16-bit 48K audio throughout. And clear the mark-in and mark-out unless you're explicitly exporting between them.

You can try to fuse your timeline and use the fused timeline to create your DVD.

Also, be sure to have no DVD authoring errors, like short (-10 frames between 2 chapters).

You can also try to delete the DVD folder in this project render files.

This I don´t understand, are you using more than one sequense - timeline ?

oops sorry for the confusion.. i'm actually mean my friend tried using both 4:3 and 16:9 at different times.

he is only able to fuse the clip up to 2 min+. same things happen when he export to avi.

seems like i found someone with similar problem.. http://forums.pinnaclesys.com/forums/thread/271892.aspx

When fusing or when exporting? That's not the same thing.

Maybe you should try to clean up all your rendered files and let the timeline re-render again. Or copy everything on a new timeline.
