Re: Cannot burn a second DVD from FCP, ever

Hi Tracy,

I can't say why it hangs on the second DVD, as I avoid sharing from FCP.

My workflow for DVD looks (generally) like this:
Export timeline as reference movie (not self-contained), using current timeline settings
Fire up Compressor and encode reference QT to .m2v and .ac3 files
Create DVD in DVD Studio Pro, burn a proof copy to test, then save as disk image

This typically takes less time than going to DVD directly from FCP, and I gain the added benefit of a .img file that I can replicate quickly on any machine with a DVD burner (all of them, in my case).

Is there anything being written to the Console during the hang?
