Burning to a dvd

Hello everyone,

I am looking for help in burning a CD using Premiere Pro CC. I have experience with Premiere when it was CS5 or so when I was going through school for digital design but as a photographer I haven't used the program in a while. I have a project I had to do using Premiere and I can't get it to burn to a dvd. It seems to burn the video part but won't play audio on my computer and when inserted into a dvd/ blue ray player such as an xbox or even just a regular one it doesn't even do that. I am using Memorex DVD-R 16X 4.7GB 120min Dvds. I have tried bringing it into Encore with it only achieving the above mentioned effects. I have googled for answers with it coming up for CS5 or so and I'm not sure if I just can't understand what to do or if the CC version is different. Any help with this would be very appreciated.

If you pick the mpeg2-dvd format, the multiplexer is off by default. Do not use the format preset that is called just plain mpeg2.

It is very confusing, because the multiplexer gives you a choice of "dvd," which creates a file with the audio and video combined. The file name will show as "m2v" when the multiplexer is off.


To add re the multiplexing now that I am back in front of the PC...

In the export settings, there is a "Multiplexer" tab with two options: DVD or None. You select "none" to export separate files for video and audio.

You want separate files because if you bring them in one file a) Encore may conclude they are not compliant and retranscode them and/or b) Encore must demux (demultiplex) them so it can work with the separate video and audio streams inside as part of the "build" process. The build combines the separate streams into muxed (multiplexed) files (vob's) that contain those streams and more.

Do you want a menu? If so open Encore. Add the menu. Then import as timeline the "m2v" and "wav." There is an encore Forum if you need more help with specifics.

Ok so then do i want to use something other than mpeg2 DVD to sepereate the audio and video or is their something i need to change in the settings in order to get it to work on a dvd player or other dvd/blue ray player?

No, that is what you use, and you will get an m2v and wav to import to Encore.

Swap the Memorex for a good brand of disk such as Verbatim.

...and make sure it is the Verbatim with the Azo dye.

Are you trying to make a CD, or DVD?  You mention both.

OK, there are three broad steps here.

1. Export your assets out of Premiere Pro for use in disk authoring.  Generally you want separate video and audio files.

2. Author your DVD in an authoring program.  Encore is one, but there are others.

3. Burn the authored project to a disk.  I recommend using ImgBurn for this.  It seems to handle the task better than Encore does (if you use that for authoring).  You can export an Image file from Encore, and use that in ImgBurn.
