8004520C Error

[Doc0608]

I have a movie that I recorded using my digital camera. I was able to convert it to a MPEG-2 file (eventually). I am now trying to convert it/burn it as a DVD movie using MyDVD. When I tell it to Burn to Disc, I get an error saying "8004520c Error while Encoding Movie 1". Any help/suggestions would great.

 

Specs:

Windows 8.1

Creator NXT2

Core i7 870

Nvidia Geforce GTX 660

 

All drivers are up to date.

Do a search (top right on this page) on that error 8004520c.

[Doc0608]

I did. Nothing seemed relevant and the suggestions I did find (defrag/make sure drivers are up to date) did not help.

Did you try to burn to an image file? What was the result?

[Doc0608]

I tried to an image file and to folders. Both gave the same result.

What was the original format of the movie? How did you convert the movie to mpeg? What program did you use?

 

How long is the movie?

[sknis]

What video camera? Many of the newer ones are either mt2s, mov or AVCHD (high definition). There is no need to convert those for Roxio Creator NXT2 ( where you posted). Do you have NXT2?

 

Chances are that the video file conversion is bad. Please answer Walt's question.

I used a Canon Rebel T3i to record my son's school Christmas program. Due to the length, it was split in to a four different files. I used VideoWave to combine and compress the original files (*.mov) in to one file (going from a total of 8 GB to 2 GB MP4 file). I then tried to use the MP4 file to create a DVD that could be given to my parents. When that failed, I again used VideoWave to convert the MP4 file to MPEG-2 (using DVD best quality settings). That conversion worked, but when I tried to use MyDVD to make a DVD using that file, it errored out again.

Again how long in time is the project? Why did you convert to mp4?
