Pardon the lengthy post, but...
As the title says:
I have Vegas 4.0e and Vegas 7d on my machine. Never had a problem burning SD DVDs from DVDA 1.0d. My Memorex DVD recorder has always worked perfectly, giving me a choice of burning speeds (I usually record video at no more than 1/2 the maximum burn rate).
I loaded in 7.0d not long ago, with DVDA 4.0b.
Finished a music vid SD project (DVX 100A 30p) in Vegas 4...didn't want to change to 7 midstream).
I used the separate MPEG2 and AC3 video and audio stream template as always, prepared the file for burning in DVDA1. Prior to the burn, I made sure that both the MPEG and .VOB files worked in MS media Player. So far, all was well.
When I attempted to burn the file from DVDA 1, my burn speeds were suddenly limited to 2.4x or 16x, as opposed to all the speed choices I had previously. OK, I thought, I'll just burn the compilation from the prepared folder with NERO 6. NO GO! NERO says that the "file allocation failed". Something I'd never seen before.
I knew the file was good, because it played in 2 versions of Media Player.
SO:
I opened the file in DVDA 4.0b and prepared it to a different folder, burned it and checked the DVD. Seemed OK, so I burned another. Second one was a coaster...0 bytes burned, 0 bytes left, even after DVDA told me the burn was successful!
Long story even longer: 5 of ten DVDs were bad...a couple played once on my computer (after waiting a long while for them to be recognized by MS Player), but not on my 2 DVD test players.???
What's happening here?
An uninstall and re-install of DVDA 4.0b didn't help.
Could the 2 versions of DVDA be conflicting? Is there a file I need to move between them? Should I lose NERO?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I've been using Vegas for 7-8 years without many7 problems, but this one has me stumped.
Thanks in advance for your help.
