DVD Lab Pro DVD Compliling error...

[chewie8008]

I'm trying to make a little dvd home movie here and am getting errors from DVD-Lab Pro. Everytime I try to compile it says that "the read data size is over the buffer limit". I'm not sure how to correct this. It originally came up and said that since I have different sized videos that it may not play in a DVD player but that I could still compile and try it. But then it always automatically terminates the compiling process at the end. I tried putting each video in it's own VTS but it still gave me the same error. I'll copy and paste the error report below if that tells a little more about it...

I am trying to run these movies consecutively without menus. Just one right after the other like autoplay... at the very last line is where it says "[ERR] The read data size is over the buffer limit - 2901 Authoring is terminated - 2999"

What am I doing wrong?

[guns1inger]

Are you running the latest updates to DLP ?

I would also put the smaller clip into a separate titleset to help with compliance. You can certainly mix resolutions, but different resolutions should be in different titlesets.

I would also visit the mediachance forums (link at mediachance.com) to see if this reported by others.

[aedipuss]

could also be badly encoded mpegs.... if the total bitrate of the mpeg2 is over 9.8mbps or the mpeg1s are over 1.8mbps you might get that error.

[chewie8008]

I didn't have any over 1.8mbps but I did find which file was giving me the error. It was a slideshow I made with Adobe Premiere... I just ran it through VirtualDub and then through TMPGenc, although I lost some quality I got it to work.

Thanks
