File naming issues

[Rewind]

Toast unexpectedly quites randomly with certain file names. I use compressor to encode videos directly to seperate m2v and ac3 files from FCP and then drop them in Toast, and have figured out that toast randomly chooses which files it does not like that have spaces or certain special characters in it and will crash. Then sometimes will burn the same file with no problem and I can take the same file that was successfull in one toast document and make another one with different encodes and it will crash on that same file that was successful before. SO WHAT'S UP WITH THIS? So to get around this problem I have to manually go back and delete all the spaces in the file names everytime. Oh and it even does it if export straight to a quicktime movie and let toast encode it itself.

I haven't encountered this problem using video files with spaces. The standard is to use an underscore line in place of any space, but it hasn't mattered on my system. I don't have DVD SP but have done this many times with m2v and ac3 streams.

 

Toast has been known to crash for some users that utilize a font manager program. Is that something you are using?

I am using macs FONT BOOK. It does all I need it to, I can turn off and on the fonts thats it. I will not use Extensis Suitcase because it does not work well with video apps but is fine for graphic.
