I am using DVDit 2.5 PE with a Sony DVD RW DRU-530A (1.0d) drive. When I try to write a DVD image or DVD Folder, it works fine and creates the image/folder. However, any time I try to burn a DVD, either straight from the project, or from the image/folder, it gives me the following error message: Build failed: Unknown error (264449) I have tried just about everthing, including rebuilding the project. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time
I'm pretty sure the problem is that you have a menu or movie somewhere that does not have a link "back" to someplace. Every menu and movie has to have a link to it and from it. You cannot simply specify an "end action" with no link to something else (even if you never plan on using that link!). I had this exact problem and once I found the offending menu and made a link back to another menu, it burned fine. I think they fixed this in v5. Hope this helps! Larry
Some other thoughts on this problem. Once you've made the DVD folder using DVDIt, have you tried to play it in a software DVD player (ie: Power DVD)? If so, did it play? Assuming it did, DVDIt is creating a useable file, the problem simply lies in the burn process (not the menu structure). I have heard that DVDIt2.5 crashes frequently during the burn process. I would suggest burning the disc from another application once DVDIt has created the DVD folder. Honestly, I have never burned from DVDIt, I have always made a DVD folder and then loaded that in a program such as CloneDVD, Intervideo DVD Copy, etc. I hear Nero does a great job of burning from DVD folders. I'd give that a try before you start looking for misslinked menus (as I suggested in my first post). Good Luck, Larry
