Hi - the camcorder is a Panasonic HC-V750. But the camcorder is not the problem. The footage transfers fine to my PC and the audio quality is very good when I play the video clips through my PC.
The problem occurs after producing a movie in Powerdirector 12 and burning it to BluRay. The resulting BLuRay has very good video quality, but the audio is significantly degraded. Background noise is amplified and people speaking becomes difficult to hear.

So I have created a Menu for my movie. There is a front page (Root Menu) which has two icons (Play and Scenes). There are then 2 pages with the various Scenes. I have music on each of the pages.
In the Menu Playback Editor I have set the duration to 60 seconds. Sure enough, the Root Menu page plays for 60 seconds and loops back. But when I select the Scenes menu, for some reason, it plays for only ~15 seconds and then loops back. I don't understand this as clearly the menu is set for 60 seconds and that is what is happening on the Root Meny screen,

I have tried Normalization, but it freezes indefinitely and I have to kill PD altogether. Has anyone else had that experience and is there a way around it?

Yes thanks. I suspected as much, but thanks for confirming.
One other question: I have used Pinnacle Studio a lot which has a useful option when making a movie "Create Disk from existing Content". This will burn a disk from already created material - very useful if you are burning more than 1 disk. I havent found anything similar on PD. When I create a disk, it seems to go through the whole rendering process again, which is much slower. Is there any such functionality in PD?

In creating a BluRay disk for a movie, I have seen several times on the forum a recommendation that the movie be Produced first; then Created based on that mpg file (i.e. move the Produced file to the timeline, add Chapters/Titles, etc. and Create Disk). The reasons for this are to reduce burden on the system.
All this makes sense, but I want to ask would there be any loss in quality of the final footage from this compared to just Creating disk from my pds project? I am shooting and Producing 1920x1080 60i.
Many thanks in advance for advice.

Some more information on my setup. Am using PD12 Ultimate with Patch 2930. I have attached the DxDiag file with my system configuration. Could it possibly be an issue with graphic card drivers?

I have been struggling with the infamous "green screen" problem. I have several movie projects shot on a Panasonic HC-V750 camcorder and each is ~1hr 45 mins. Once finished, I then either Produce the movie and view the mpeg file or I create a disk. In the finished product, I seem to get at least one green clip in each project (and it's generally one only per project). It doesnt seem to be predictable where the green frame occurs.
I am not using Enable Hardware Acceleration which I have heard can cause this problem.
On one of the movies, I tried an experiment by deleting most of the movie and leaving only the clip that was producing the green frame and a few others. When i produced the movie, there was no green screen clip.
I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do. I recently switched from Pinnacle Studio to PD12. PD12 is more stable, but I never used to get any green screen problem on Studio.
Help please!
