Last Part Of Video File Is Not Being Burned Onto Disc

[big_boi97]

Hi There

 

I am currently using the newest version of DVD Flick and Image Burn.

 

I have made many dvd's and they were all .avi files. I don't get any error messages when I create them, everything seems to be fine with DVD Flick & Image Burn.

 

However, I just recently started to watch them and found out that the whole video is not being burnt on the disc. It has taken a few minutes off of the end (different amounts) of each one. I am not sure if this is because Image Burn isn't burning them right or DVD Flick isn't encoding them right because as I said before I don't get any error messages.

 

I checked the last dvd I made and the file length on my Laptop was 108:32 seconds. But the file on the dvd was only 104:17 seconds.

 

I use DVD+R dvd's and they can hold up to 120 minutes.

 

Everything is fine with the video, there is no skipping or anything and I get no errors. It's just that the last part of the video is not being burnt onto the disc and this is spoiling the endings of my dvd's.

 

Can someone help me with this please?

 

P.s. This is the first time I'm posting a question on a forum so I apologise if I haven't given enough information. If I haven't please get back to me and I will.

 

 

Thanks to anyone who replies to this.

ImgBurn burns what DVD Flick tells it to, and if there was a problem with the burning process, then ImgBurn would have told you. If there was no problem shown then I guess DVD Flick didn't encode the whole thing. Are you using the latest version? Have you looked in their forum to see if other users had the same problem?

 

By the way, the 120min shown on DVDs/cases is just a reference: you can burn less than that with more picture quality, or more than than that amount but with a really bad picture quality

Okay then thanks for your help. And yeah because I wasn't sure which program was giving me the problem I created a forum on Image Burn & DVD Flick.

 

I do have the latest version of DVD Flick installed because I checked by pressing update while it's open.

 

I guess for some strange unknown reason DVD Flick will not encode the whole of any of my videos, it's taken a few minutes off of all of them.

 

But thank you for your help.

I just want to add if anyone else has this same problem and comes up with a fix please post it here.

I've done thousands of conversions in my past

and i can say,

from my own experiences,

that DVDFlick is an OK freeware

but you get what you pay for

and dont get very good quality out of it...

 

So,

for converting video files to DVD-Video,

i strongly stronly suggest these,

as it hasn't failed me yet!

 

 

#1- Purchase ConvertXtoDVD

 

#2- Buy good quality media

 

#3- Burn at Max -> 12X

 

#4- Don't use your PC while your burning

 

 

try that and you'll see, your conversions will be just fine!

Yeah I know what you mean it's not great quality, it lags a little bit.

 

But I just found out the solution to my problem and it turns out it was my own fault. Not DVD Flick or Image Burn.

 

Basicly I had set my project destination folder somewhere in D because I was running low on space on C. I remember getting that message saying it is recommended you put your project destination folder on C but I didn't because of space. And I didn't think putting it on D would make me lose the last few minutes of my video. But actually it was.

 

I specifically remember every dvd I made the project destination folder was on D and the file it had created was always 4GB no matter how long the dvd was.

 

So I decided to do some rearranging and put my destination folder on C and this time the file it created was 4.16GB. And it didn't take off any minutes from the end.

 

I'm happy now.

 

To anyone else having this problem if your destination folder is on D change it to C because that is probably why it's taking minutes off of the end.
