I had a chance to work on this and here is an update:
1. I did everything tech support told me to do, with the last thing being a
defrag (system was at 36% and needed it)
2. After the defrag, I noticed that the audio on my MPEG-2 file, did not
match the video?
3. So I burned a new MPEG-2 file to the hard drive under DVD-HD
4. I imported that into a new timeline in PD5, set my chapters point,
opening music, etc.. I tried to burn a disc without creating VOB file.
5. The system stopped responding at about 50%. So then I burned a
VOB file to the hard drive, (without burning disc) and the worked!!
6. I have power2go on another computer, So I burned the VOB files
to a DVD, but the new laptop could not read the DVD with the vob files
It said there was nothing on the disc?
7. So I took the VOB files from my harddrive and put them into a new
timeline in PD5. Entered my chapter points, and opening music again,
8. I pressed the burn button, but left the create file box unchecked, and
then I left for work. Two hours later my wife calls and said that
the program said "burn successful" So it looks like a have a copy and
will check it out when I get home.
Questions: A. Why couldn't the second computer read the VOB files on the disk? They are on there, the 1st computer reads them? are they protected somehow?
B. Is there an easier way of dealing with the VOB files, rather than using them in a new timeline and rendering another disc. Took 2 hours?
Thanks again.
On a side note, I was watching the CPU useage under taskmanager, and boy does this program use alot. It would jump up to 95% from time to time,,,,
