Encode Failed and Out of Memory Errors

[VernonRobinson]

I am facing two new problems. The first is the item below. This is my first attempt to make a DVD from inside Encore. The timelines seem to play without incident, but does not want to encode. Any ideas?

The second issue is the Out of Memory message I am receiving. It does not seem to crash the application, but I do save and restart. I am using Win7 Ultimate, 64 Bits with 8 Gig of ram. Any idea what may be going on here?

Thanks,

I am scratching my head. I tried to transcode each asset one at a time. Each clip is less than 2 minutes. One succeeded, then the next one would fail. After trying each one several times, they all seem to transcode and Encore proceeded to build the disc without incident. I have no idea why it took multiple tries on each clip before it would transcode successfully. I thought it might be a memory error, but looking at Windows Task Manager, Encore never took up more than 1.2 Gig and the physical ram was at approximately 45%.

I have my first disc with menus built. I will now allow the system to update from Version 4.0 to 4.2.1 and see if it will be more stable than the last time. I am still looking for ideas?

Thanks,

Re the 'encode error.' Could it have been caused by the (infamous?) tiny gap in the timeline problem.

Such helpful and informative error messages aren't they?

John, I was able to get the issue transcoded without changing the gap or spacing? It is acting just plain weird?
