dvd burning issues - ISO Writer
Okay i worked out how to burn to the ISO image writer.
Opened DVD Disc menu in proshow producer
Disc Burning menu - chose the ISO Writer instead of the DVD Writer
Again bother shows loaded up well. Rendered video 100 % for the first show.
The 2nd show rendered up to 96% just as before and Froze again. Same Spot.
Any suggestions from anyone.
Thanks monica

I have heard of a corrupt picture file stopping the rendering. Although the picture is displayed in the preview OK and on other programs. Try deleting the slides at the place of the hang-up and then replacing them from the originals. When you do this it is also necessary to delete the .pxc file to ensure a full rerender.
I assume it is not a show that is going to be over 4Gb

PS I would recommend keeping the 'problem' in one thread, it makes the replies easier to follow in sequence. You now have two similar threads running

As Brian pointed out a corrupt image file is one possible cause. One little
known (well, not well known anyway) is that a normal jpg file (at least from
a camera) has a header and the main image. The header contains all the
EXIF (time date stamps, camera make, shutter speed etc). It also contains
a thumbnail image of the real image ... mostly. While I don't know for sure,
I would suspect that Proshow uses the thumbnail from the header in the
timeline view. I have run into problems in the past where the thumbnail
did NOT match the actual image ! A number of photo editors will allow
you to save the image you have added text etc to back to the same file,
they don't update the thumbnail. When you look at the "thumbnail view"
in windows explorer, you can't find the image you edited since the thumbnail
was not updated. The sneaky part of this is that windows looks for a thumbnail
image in a jpg header --- if it finds it, it uses that for the thumbnail display, if
it does NOT find the thumbnail, it creates one. The end result is a bunch of
jpg files that may or may not match what windows shows you. But, I wandered
off again. Anyway, you may have a corrupt image file or possibly a corrupt
audio file. There have been several cases where people had similar problems,
converted their mp3 audio file to a wav etc which cleaned it up and all was well.

You can't have too many gadgets or too much disk space !!

Lots of PIC and Arduino microprocessor stuff too !!

check your disk space
I have had this problem occur before due to not having enough space on my hard drive. Writing a DVD is a lot of work for a computer and requires A LOT of space. You may need to move some stuff onto an external drive to free up some space.
good luck!

Hi Brian, you advised me that I could have corrupt picture files. My rendering was stopping around 96% of the way. So I deleted the last 3 slides which included 2 .mov files and 1 .jpg with layers on it. The show burned straight to the DVD. So one by one i replaced the 3 slides - burning between each slide i returned and what do you know one of the movie files was causing the freezing. So I have deleted it altogether. Replaced the other two and I am now burning to DVD's. So thank you for your input it helped me heaps.

Hi Mikey
Yes you were right i did have a corrupt .mov file. If you see BrianCbb's reply you will see what happened. Thanks for discussion forums and for people like you guys who help us. Photodex has not even replied back to me on this yet.
Thanks again - Monica

Hi Kelly,
Yes I have plenty of disk space where my images and shows are kept. But the problem was a corrupt .mov file. I am now burning DVD's. Thanks for your help.

Glad you found the problem, and that I could help. The wife says I'm never right, just proves sometimes I am, well at least once
You could try converting the .mov file to a .avi and reinserting, this may get over your problem.
