Errors on Scenarist Premastering output

[tizank tha bizank]

OK, so when i begin to output my project the DVD Video files create, the disc image gets created, the disc output begins... and then there is an error.

I've never had this happen before. This is also the 1st time I have added CSS, and the project is very large... Is this because it's ending up too big.

Before i output layer 0 states it is 98% full, layer 1 97%. After the muxing, it's up to 100% for each layer.

Post mux layer 0 = 4.19
layer 1 = 4.11
(146.5mb remaining)
Remember this is after the generation of DVD video files. before the output begins it shows close to 250mb available.

This is the error info:

Info DVD Video files created

Info Creating Disc Image.
Info Reading file list
Info Extent start sector: layer0 = 295, layer1 = 2058288
Info Calculating file size and location

Just in case anyone else runs into an issue like this, the solution was easy, and I should have realized it right away.

The output/burning issue was due to it being output at full speed (8x). When i dropped the write speed it burned successfully.

That usually happens when you put in a blank disc after opening Scenarist. Scenarist just defaults to 8x when there's nothing in the drive.

If you load your disc first, then open Scenarist, it should correctly report the fastest speed the disc can be written at...

I never knew it would actually fail though, I just figured it would burn at the discs max speed...
