tsantee Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 Try choosing Save as Disc Image instead of clicking the burn button. See if it completes. Let me know if it doesn't. If it does, burn the resulting .toast file to DVD using the Image File setting in the Toast Copy window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviemaker Peter Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 @ Digital Guru, Tried your suggestion but it still didn't work. Same error 18771, after save as disc image. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsantee Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Toast apparently is finding something in the source video file that isn't right. Maybe it is a dropped from or time base error. The only thing you can do is to export it as a new video file using some other application. You might find the freeware MPEG Streamclip for doing that. Then add that newly encoded file to Toast.

moviemaker Peter Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 So I put in a blu-ray disc single layer and it burned with no issues. I guess the DVD disc is limited to 30 min. or less. Thanks You for your assistance, tsantee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
