DV to DVD on the fly error with ULEAD MF3...

[hartiberlin]

Hi All,
it seems ULEAD movie factory 3 has a bug in the direct to disc
burning.
I tried the "on the fly" setting with my external USB2
DVD-Writer with a DVD-RW disc on all settings
and also disabled all menus and chapter,
but always, when I want to burn ON THE FLY a DVD-Video
it just gives an error message and the programm aborts.
I am running Windows 2000 SP4 and have a Pentium4 3.2 Ghz
No hyperthreading laptop with Firewire input and
want to capture directly from the DV Camera to DVD-R (or DVD-RW disc for testing)
With "ON THE FLY" disabled, all works, but I really
want to record in realtime from DV a DVD.

Do I need a DVD+RW disc for this feature ?
I have a Pioneer DVD-A07, which is able also to write
DVD+RW discs...
What other applications other than QVideo2.0, that only work with BENQ DVD writer drives, are available to capture a DV output via Firewire directly in Realtime to DVD-R ?

Thanks.

Regards, Stefan.

Thanks.

There is a betapatch out there, that fixes some issues.
Look here:
ftp://ftp.ulead.com/Silent/DVD_MovieFactory/DMF3/

Too bad that there is no documentation for what the other
patches are and if the need to be installed too ?
I only installed the betapatch and can now record in realtime.
What still not works is the fast forward and fast rewind button with my Panasonic DV camera NV-DX100 and
also during direct to disc menumaking it sometimes hangs with a DVD-RW disc.

Also it is too bad, that you can´t use these nice motion
menu MPEG backgrounds during direct to disc recording !
these only work, when you use the normal authoring with MF3... too bad ! That should be changed.

Must all fixes here in this directory installed ?

ftp://ftp.ulead.com/Silent/DVD_MovieFactory/DMF3/

Or is it okay, to just install the beta_patch_e.exe file ?

Why is there no readme with the fixes, so one
knows, what they will fix ??
Thanks.
BTW, if you have the German full version installed, you must first run the english trialversion and the
beta_patch_e.exe to get this to work !

Regads, Stefan.
