Is it at all possible to upload the iso you made? I know it's going to be big but that may help us "see" what your seeing???

What's you upload speed? Most websites tend to time-out after 50 minutes.

Have you tried trimming out 5 minutes somewhere other than the end? I know... but just try it and see if it's a "time" issue or an issue with the images. Save is as a different pds file.

You could also try putting the last 5 minutes of images in the middle somewhere. If they are still blurry, it tells me it's something about the images. If it's still blurry at the end, it's definately a "production" issue related to time.

I actually tried removing the last 5 minutes and see what happen. I burned a new DVD and Had the exact same issue. I tried reducing the burn speed.. No joy. I Tried creating a dvd Folder and use another program to burn, same issue and when I read the video file on my computer, the last couple minutes are blury still. This said, the problem is not in the burning but in the dvd creation.

As you probably noticed, I am French, sorry if my texts are also little blury.. lol

It is... Once I made all these tests, I decided to use the forum and see if I can get help from you guys. This said, I even thought about uninstalling the program and re install it but I need this project soon and I am little worried that I wont be able to finish it... 4 dvds of little over an hour each.

OK, I've isolated the video segment.

The first 2 images are fine.

The crud appears at the third image and is still there on the rest.

I'm guessing here but could this be a compression problem? Or maybe a codec error?

The Freddymondo1.mp4 show severe pixilation at 1280x720. A pal dvd is 720x576 pixel in resolution. 18 MP photos on the timeline is overkill and may stress the pc and it’s graphics card to it’s limits.

The photo in Untitled2.jpg is 18 MP in size. I find that when I try to produce a 1080/60i or 60p video from a timeline of 18 MP photos that just a 1 minute timeline takes several minutes to produce. A 1 hour dvd could take a long time to encode with those 18 MP photos on the timeline.

I would suggest using a software like Infranview to batch reduce all the photos to 576 pixels vertically to replace all those already on the timeline. Encoding will be quick and there should be no pixelation with cpu encoding. That is with HA and HE not checked.

Wow! I'm paying $130/month and I only get 5mbps upload.

My upload speed is less than 1 Mbps. My Download is about 11.6 Mbps. I wish upload and download speeds were closer. Carl312: Windows 10 64-bit 8 GB RAM,AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz,ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB,240GB SSD,two 1TB HDs.

Did you ever post your project to a shared dropbox for download and evaluation?

If you had 60min total duration of 8 sec duration pics all 18MP images I'd do the following:
1) File > Pack Project Materials....
2) Winzip, 7zip or the like the PD packed project folder, overall size of compressed folder probably much less than 2GB
3) upload to your dropbox at 16Mbps would be ~17 min

Probably the only reasonable way to get some possible suggestions on corrective action in light of the fact that it does not appear to be triggered by any particular picture or edit function, as you indicate, it's always just the last several minutes.

Yes he did. I trimmed it and that's the attachment.

jcardana, you don't get from a pure pic timeline content of 18MP pics to a mpeg2 ~8Kbps pal dvd of 720x576 via a 1280x720 mp4 file at ~3.5Kbps that you posted. Just looking for source to be of any value vs guessing, it sounds like you are on it, good luck.
