DVD Studio Pro: Compiler File Error

Hi there,

I'm running DVD Studio Pro 4.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.8, and until now, I've been successfully burning DVD projects. But suddenly, when I try to burn a DVD, I keep getting a message stating that the "build failed" due to a "compiler file error." Any clue how to solve this? My sound file is a .ac3, and my video is a .m2v.

Thanks!

It could be a number of things. Generally, you should try renaming your m2v and then re-importing it and setting it into the track it is in. Also, try trashing the PAR files (check your preferences for the location of these) which get created when you import an asset.

Finally, try simply re-encoding the footage and going from there (add a new name for it too...)

HI FRIENDS

I got the same problem and it doesn't work doing this changes. Even with a new project, new reencoding, trashing all the files associated before.

I'm desperate!

Is it possible to reinstall the program without reinstalling all Final Cut Studio apps? I did it so many months ago!!!

Thanks for all
