This is a little off-topic, I know, but PLEASE, will people stop trying to decimalise time! Time does NOT conform to decimal fractions! 1.5 hours, should read 1 hour, 30 minutes as per the equasion: 60 seconds = 1 minute; 60 minutes = 1 hour; 24 hours = 1 day, and so on. Sorry to be pedantic but this habit of attempting to decimalise time really is ANNOYING!

It's all relative but I get your point (who wants to do maths on the forum) - duely noted and thanks for the input

Hi Shadowman and Stevek - Thanks for your prompt assistance.
I have shifted over to use Nero for now (not as good but fine for what I need) However at some point i will need to use Powerdirector for Subtitles. To answer first Stevek:
The Video is about 1.5 hours long I also tried to burn as an ISO to save in my hard drive but had the same problem..... however, I have been having issues with my internet service dropping today and suspect that the software is requiring authentication via internet before i can use.... (This also occurred when using Nero but when I got internet back up it started working!)
Shadowman:
I am currently burning using Nero but i have a few more videos i need to burn tonight so when this one os completed I will go back to Powerdirector and let you know.
Sorry for not providing all the info at this time but appreciate you guys jumping on this... if you have anything to add based on the info i have provided, any insight will be welcome; that pending, I will update when back on Powerdirector.
Thanks,
D

Hi everyone - Apologies but I am completely new to creating DVD's and picked this product as it had the best reviews in functionality, speed and simplicity to use.
Let me start with my specs of my hardware and o/s: - Ultimate Windows 7 with latest updates, 8GB RAM, Intel Core Duo2 E8500 3.17GHz, Running on 64Bit version, Sapphire PCI Express R7 260X 2GB Graphics Card (OC GDDR5, HDMI, DVI, DP, 2S)
My process so far in buring a DVD:
- Selected "create disc"
- Selected a MP4 video as "content"
- Selected no Title Menu
- Selected "Burn in 2D" - Burn to Disc at 8.0 Speed
I have used a Dual laver DVD disc as the file size (after burn) is said to be 8239Mb.
THE ISSUE:
- Authoring Progress = 0%
- Burning Progress = 0%
- Time remaining --
- Time Elapsed = 01:28:38
Should it be taking this long?
