I have edited and converted some movies from my JVC camcorder's .MOD format into JPEG-4 format. I have started a new MYDVD project and started to add multiple short videos. I cannot get any farther than the third video before Creator 2010 crashes. Each video clip is less than 5 minutes long and I'm burning to DVD-R 4.7GB Sony media. The first few times it asked if I wanted to send an error message to Microsoft but it doesn't do that anymore; it just quits.

I know that a few weeks ago I was having a real problem with the Roxio Burn Manager in that it just wanted to keep re-installing from my disc and just wouldn't quit until I killed it with the Task Manager. Would that have anything to do with this current issue?

I'm running Creator 2010 on XP Pro SP3 on an Intel dual core 2.6 GZ CPU. I've got about 300 GB of open space on my hard drives.

Side question: how can I select which of two DVD drives I want to use in Creator 2010?  I can't seem to find anywhere to select the output drive.

Never heard of a JPEg-4 format!

Since you are going to burn to a standard DVD, I would recommend that you convert to mpeg2 format, best DVD quality ,with whatever program you are converting.
How did you get the video from the camcorder to your hard drive? What program did you use to edit? What is the total time of all the clips?

Do you want to combine all the clips into one video or do you want to a menu selection for each clip?
Is the 3rd clip that crashes always the same clip?

What kind of problems were you having with the "Burn Manager" ? It seems that you may have some problems with your install. Perhaps a uninstall and reinstall is required.

When you have the "burn" window open in myDVD do you not have the Drive drop-down menu where you select your burner?
