The slideshow project as I have described below which plays perfectly okay in MAGIX Photostory's program interface monitor, fails to complete the encoding stage of the "burn" process as (a) an AVCHD DVD movie where it appears to stall after completing about 85% of the project this after over 2 days in continuous encoding mode and (b) when I tried to "export" a WMV Full HD movie file, where the encoding process crashes at the 85% mark! I finally resorted to MAGIX Photostory's troubleshooter's suggestion to test the project composition for flaws and errors by generating a MPEG-4 DVD file prior to copying to disc. I will try them as soon as I can get the project encoded - my gripe deals with the encoding and not the burning to disc part at least not yet. Lastly, if you manage to encode to a directory but not burn using Speed burnR, then try another burning program like Nero, if you have one. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have had success this way whereas I have had problems burning directly from PhotoStory and Magix Video Edit Pro. Then go to file, Additional programs, Magix Speed BurnR, and navigate to the directory that you just encoded to, and burn the project this way. It will create the files required for a DVD in a directory (folder). When you get to the DVD Burning screen, click on Encode in directory, select a directory, supply a filename, and Burn. Secondly, if you manage to create the exported file successfully but cannot burn successfully to DVD, then try the following. There seems to be a lot of problems burning projects to DVD using Magix and other programs. Do the same process.įirst thing to see is that you can at least create a video file. Test this to see if it works.Īlternatively, File, Export, Files as video MPEG-4. You will have to create any menus that you made previously. Then create a new project in PhotoStory and import the video just created.

Most importantly, save your project with a different file name, like the one you have followed by r1 (revision 1) just in case something goes wrong. After the first two failed attempts, I decided to shut down some of the PC's background programmes, to provide most of the available RAM for the encoding process.No luck!Īny suggestions and/or guidance in this regards would be most welcome.

I use a Dell Precision 690 CAD Workstation which has 32 gigs of RAM, nVidia Quatro 4000 Graphic Card and 270 Gbyte 15000 RPM Harddisk which as about 50 gigs of free space. Did this on three separate occasions with each one failing to produced a single, error-free result - the DVD option which took over 2 days of continuous encoding during the last attempt, just refused to proceed beyond around two-thirds of the finish point, while the WMV files stopped short at around 85% with an error message! Prior to burning to DVD as an AVCHD and WMV movie formats (done separately), I ran the Cleaning Wizard to tidy up any spurious and unwanted files. The finished, 2 gigabyte project included 236 images had a run time of just over 38 minutes.


Spent nearly a month of computer time, editing, sorting and compiling a sideshow which comprised of stills, video footages and background music.
