I am attempting to burn a 25 minute movie on an XP system with Creator 2009. The encoding begins and I watch the preview play through only slightly slower than what the movie would play. After approximately 5% encoding the preview stops advancing and it just sits there. I have looked at task manager and Roxio is running  vice not responding. Besides this movie being comprised of slide show and HD video, I have added video overlays in slow motion. I do not think this is doing it as I have watched it hang up as mentioned on the very first slide. Any help? Thanks,

I hope you created your project in Videowave (Edit-advanced). From there you can output to a video file (DVD mpeg, best quality) using Export As and that should tell you where in your project your problem is.
Its always a good idea to build up your project slowly and export to make sure there are no encoding problems. Trying to do a full project all at once makes it difficult to debug the problems.

OH OH.    I have never exported. All the others I have done, I burned to disc with little or no problem. This is the first time I am adding the overlays and such. I have been doing all of the project in My DVD advanced....I hope thats the same thing.

No, myDVD advanced is not the same thing. myDVD is mainly for creating the menus and burning to DVD,a video folder or iso file. While myDVD does contain a version of Videowave that can be used to edit/create a video project, most experienced users recommend Videowave for "assembling" the project, ie., adding the source files, adding audio, transitions, etc.

If you have only one movie in your project (one title on the menu page) then you can still use the Export As to check out your project.

I will try this, Thanks.
