probertson Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I'm trying trying to burn a movie to DVD. When encoding begins it just sits there with no progress. I've tried waiting up to an hour but the percentage of completion never changes. I don't think it's encoding. Anyone have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, you need to update your video adapter drivers to the most current ones, or if you already have the latest installed, uninstall them, reboot so it installs the generic windows ones, then re-install them.

They'll have instructions on how to install it usually on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 Larry, I already have the latest version of DirectX. Downloaded it this morning. I was refering to your video adapter/card drivers, not the directx software (which it was good you did that too). To find out what video adapter and driver version you have, right click on My Computer and select Properties. When that window opens up, click on the Hardware tab, then click on the Device Manager button. Then look under Display Adapters and post what's listed.

FwFdfireman Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 Larry, I already have the latest version of DirectX. Downloaded it this morning. You need to get the latest drivers for YOUR Video Card. Also make sure the firmware for your burner is up to date. The manufacturer of your DVD burner will have that.

gi7omy Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 To find out what video card you have, right click anywhere on the desktop and go to properties and then settings. It will say there what the video card is. Then go to the nVidia or ATI website (presuming it's one of those) and download the latest drivers from either 'downloads' or 'support' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probertson Posted March 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Larry, I have an NVidia GeForce 7300LE video card.

gi7omy Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Try here (Beta driver dated Dec 2006 which seems to be the latest for 2K/XP) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Or go with this latest non-beta one here. Just follow the directions carefully regarding uninstalling the old ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
