Re: DVD Architect 5.2 Render Freeze at 84% and 98%

okay... hands down, you guys are way smarter than I in this arena, but hear me out 1 time... I've done this 18 times before successfully with no compromise in vid quality, and then I switch to Vegas Pro 11 and I can't make it work.

I rendered my SVP11 project in Vegas (not DVDA). I also rendered a nice moving main menu and a little chapter search menu in SVP11. Then I open DVDA, change the initial main menu b.g. and audio from my rendered main menu, drop in my rendered feature (53 minutes) which typically I always try to keep it under 106 minutes for compression reasons, and then I right right on that feature and add the menu which breaks down the chapters from my orange markers on the original project. All of this measures out in the lower right hand corner of DVDA as 4.3GB! Perfect by all my other projects for not pushing the compression envelope. I'm thinking shoe in at this point.

Now I even did all the suggestions regarding switching directories with media files joining it and hiding the name from prior post. That did not help (still froze at 83%).

I promise... size isn't the issue here. Something isn't jiving here, and I'm not smart enough with Vegas to figure it out. I'm a creative driver not a mechanic unfortunately.

I am totally open to any suggestions now that you have all the details.

Thanks you guys!
