Path/File Access Errors When Using AVS/DVD Menu Editor

[Linus_01]

I am running AVStoDVD 2.7.5 under Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Win I add the .MP4 files I want to burn to DVD everything works normally. Whenever I attempt to run the menu editor however, I get the message “Error 75: Path/File Access Error” even after I have made sure that AVStoDVD is running in “administrator” mode. I have checked all of the settings for the program numerous times now and made sure the files and paths are correct.

Also, if I bypass the menu editor, I can go ahead and burn the selected files to DVD without any problems. They just don’t have any menus of course when I do that. The problem only occurs when using the menu editor and does not occur in any other programs which I use under Windows 7. The problem first occurred under AVStoDVD 2.7.2 so I upgraded to 2.7.5 to see if that would correct it but the upgrade made no difference.

Finally, I tried shutting down my system completely and re-booted it to make sure that no other program was using a file that AVStoDVD was trying to use. I tried running AVStoDVD again after doing that and while no other programs were running but I still got the access error. As I mentioned earlier, I can still burn files to DVD with AVStoDVD and that’s the way I’ve been running it. I would like to be able to use the menu editor however and I am completely mystified by this problem.

Also, I am fairly new to AVStoDVD. When burning 4 .MP4 files to an .ISO file (approx. 200,000 each) which is about the max I can fit on a blank DVD-R, the conversion runs my CPU flat out for about 3-4 hours or so, the time it takes to complete the conversion. My system has a 3.2 ghz dual core processor and 8 GB and AVStoDVD uses 100 % of my CPU and about 50% of the memory during the entire conversion process, even after I have shut down everything else running on the system during the time that I can. Does this seem normal?

Thanks for any feedback or help anyone can offer.

Hi Linus_01

try to use the 'Options'/'Restore Default Preferences' command. Quit and restart AVStoDVD. Let me know if you have fixed the issue.
