Thanks Carl,
I've run into so many problems haven't even gotten to working on my menu yet. I actually burned project last night with no menu and proofed today. Volume was different on each video section I had imported into the master project and actually had some pixelation too so I've spent most of day reworking this edit.
I do have more questions and looking for a "quick fix" now to get the project done...then I can continue learning.
Questions:
1) Is there a quick way to level off audio when different clips had been produced and brought into a new project to make a master video.? Some of it was that I had voice-over &music on the clips which was alot lower than just the music on the other clips. Will that "Equalize" work in this new master project on all clips?
2) After I had all produced clips brought into the new project and made my chapter points, titling, transistions between clips, etc. I have to "produce" this again, don't I?...and it just produces (encodes the part that hasn't been encoded yet?
Without "double encoding" to mpeg and effecting quality?
3) Any idea what is causing the green frames in my timeline? Is that causing the pixelation in DVD as well?
4) I actually saved my project to a USB thumb drive and imported to another computer that has an authoring program I know real well, but my DVD Workshop2 Program kept crashing... Do you think that has anything to do with going back to XP and 32bit PC from my new PC system and this software program? I thought mpeg2 was mpeg2?
I have a zillion changes & corrected clips now, I'm really getting confused but I am dating & timing everything I save.
Anyway, just wanted to check in and let you guys know I really, really do appreciate the help and one day " I'll get it" and be able to share with others...I hope.
Enjoy the weekend....if I don't my husband will shoot me!
