M2V Problems

[Garnet2]

I have Roxio Creator NXT 2 loaded onto Win7 64bit (Dell Optiplex 980). I wanted to make a DVD using a file I created from Premiere Pro. After I have edited my project I export it as a DVD (M2V) file. When I go to bringing in the movie file in Roxio it doesn't see the file???? It sees my AVI, MP4 etc but not the M2V. I thought I could save time by transcoding the file. I never had a problem with this using Sonic MyDvd and XP Pro. I had to upgrade to Win7 and thought that Roxio would be a good choice. I found a list of supported files for Roxio NXT 2 and it shows M2V in the list. What am I missing?? Any help?

Why did you render to m2v which of course is not the DVD format. Why not not right away to mpg?

 

Of course the are all sorts of m2v flavours and not all are accepted by video programs.

In Premiere Pro CS6 the default DVD export setting is a M2V file.

In Premiere Pro CS6 the default DVD export setting is a M2V file.

 

If that is the default all you need to do is burn with Premier Pro (Just joking), Are you making a High definition blu ray project or standard definition project. Roxio will make a blu ray with either mpg2 or AVCHD. It will make a standard disc using mpg2.

 

Can you change the output from Premier Pro? You should be able to. Alternately (and not suggested is to use a third party converter to convert the M2V to a format acceptable to Roxio.

You could also try to burn a disc using ISoBurn (free).

An .m2v file like that one is a video only stream file in mpeg2 format. It contains no Audio. The associated audio from your output should be in a .wav file with the same name as the .mv2 file.

 

You could try renaming the extension to .mpg and NXT2 may accept it, altho it would not contain any audio.

 

the best thing to do would be as has been suggested is to try and output to a single .mpg [mpeg2] file.
