Hi

I'm using the unactivated version of AVS Video Editor 6.1.

I created a project with several clips and was able to successfully PRODUCE
a mpeg4 file of the clips.

However now that I am trying to produce a DVD, the create menu accepts
the file name, and I click CREATE (to produce the DVD output files), and it
works away for 50 seconds, but then goes back to the create menu for
some reason. The output folder is empty.

And oddly enough now that I go back to the project, when I move the
main timeline marker to different sections of the timeline, I see nothing
in the preview screen. But if I click on an individual clip in the media library,
the clip still plays.

I have even reinstalled the software but its still the same problem.

Can you help?

To avoid the problem, please reinstall AVS software folliowing the instructions from this link.

Hi Vlad

Thanks - I've already followed this procedure in the link given twice (and reinstalled) BUT the problem is still there.

I was able to successfully remove the registry entries and remove the remaining files. The only part
of Step 3 I couldn't do was find the license key file. I looked everywhere in XP but couldn't find it.
The link suggests C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AVS4YOU\Licence but
there is no such directory. I hope this last step is not key too removing the problem.

Let me know if you have any other recommendations. Thanks.

It may be the problem producing particular project.

Please specify the format of your source files for the project and your PC configuration - Operating System, CPU, Ram. How long is your project? Please create simple small project and try producing it to DVD. Does the same problem persist?

Best regards.

Yes you are right - if I only use a couple of clips, I can produce the DVD.

So it sounds like my project has too many files? Do you know the limits of
the software?

I have about 140 clips of (mp4 or mpeg 4 format) that are between
30 sec to 4 minutes each. The total playing time is about 1 hour and 4mins.
When I try to produce the DVD, I'm told it will need 4.37GB of disk space
(and I have 19GB free). The funny part is that I was able to produce
a single MP4 of 1.83GB exactly once using the AVS Video editor (but now
it refuses to do that with the same problem).

Can you please tell me the limits of the software - I can't afford to restart
the whole project - maybe I can try removing some clips.

My system specs are:

Windows XP SP3, Intel celeron @ 1.6Ghz, 1GB of RAM. With AVS video
editor running and my 140clip project loaded, the task manager says
I have about 300MB available (390MB system cache) and kernel
memory is 79MB paged and 16MB non paged.

Hello,

There is no limit for number of files in the project in our software. However, your hardware may not allow to handle so many files. I would say your PC is quite weak to produce such large project. Could you please specify the origin of your mp4 files? Are they HD videos?

Regards.
