Q: Blu-Ray burning error after Final Cut Pro 10.1.2 update.

I upgraded Final Cut Pro X to 10.1.2  I can no longer burn blu-ray.  I get an error message "Either the video file or the audio file were an invalid format".  I get the same message sharing through Final Cut or through Compressor.  Please help!

    Yes it seems that anything burned under 60 minutes as a BRD works.

     

    If someone could test trashing the Create Disc prefs and let us know. That'd be great. We are too busy now burning BRD on the old Compressor to test anymore.

    I have been on the phone for days about this problem with apple. they say that only 3 people have complained about this problem, please call in to apple and complain so they will try to fix this faster. they are emailing me a hard drive so i can send in my file so they can see why it will not burn to blu ray. everyone needs to call in to let them know about this

    In an earlier post, Nordheidi suggested the FCS suite might be a factor in causing this fail.

     

    I have FCS3 installed on a 10.9 system and I'm not having the problem with timelines –long or short.

     

    I have tp admit that it's confounding so far why some people have this and others don't.

    I have Compressor loaded on mine and have managed to get the Bluray burning going either .img or Real disc.

    There were initial difficulties after the 10.1.2 update.

    I have not tested longer times of over an hour but will try this later in the day.

     

    That's a good point regards trashing Create Disc Prefs.

    Made a Disc Image with a duration of 1 hour 8 minutes with 28 chapter markers and 24 titles.

    Original footage of 1920 x 1080 50p.

    The image was created with FCP X 10.1.2 and plays back OK.

    OS 10.9.4

    Al,

     

    Like you I made an img from a >1 hour timeline with chapter markers and everything worked as advertised.


    Still in the dark about what the systems that are encountering this have in common. Also have been looking at other forums without getting any useful clues.

    I have spoke to 3 techs at apple with no success. I have tried to make a disc image and that failed at 66 percent. I have tried to cut my video down just under 1 hour and that also failed. I did burn a 5 minute video made from a disc image and used disc utility to burn it that worked and it was pieces of the 1 hour 28 minute video that will not burn. They now want to send me a hard drive so I can send them my file that will not burn.

    Me too. Not only been scratching my head but searching for a why.

     

    I have noticed that FCP X 10.1.2 does not retain the Shared Files in it's folder, they are dumped/moved?? after a re-boot

    Add to this the fact that the Recents in Create Disc is done away with points in an "Apple have made changes" in the system and it's affecting most of us in some manner.

    This dumping and Recents file list change makes making a disc image more practical in my case.

    If I wish to create more discs, use the .img, at least it stays put and can be re-used.

    Feedback time for me.

     

    Here's what mine looks like after a re-boot:

    Where the two files for the Bluray info used to be is replaced by a meaningless (to me and disc burning) ShareStatus.plist with XML info.

    This may be a clue where to keep looking??

    There's a bug that dumps the shared files.

    Thanks for pointing this out about the Shared files -- thought I had lost some brain cells.

     

    However, let me note that if you use the Share to Apple device path, the Shared files gets placed in the iTunes folder -- Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Home Videos.  I had not used this until after the latest update, so I don't know if that is a change, and in doing this the other Shared files have been lost?

    Placing in iTunes has always been an option. Losing the Share file is something separate. For some things, the Share file is lost immediately, for others the file is dumped when you quit the application. I don't believe it's the intended behavior.

    Yes, you right -- I checked and found some there pre 10.1.2.  But where was that option set?

    Settings. Add to playlist. That sends it to iTunes.

    Decided to create a new project and try shooting & auto-importing a fresh long (40:27:26) AVCHD clip at 1440x1080 29.97p. Dropped it on the timeline and shared it (from native media - not optimized) to BD image successfully, suggesting there's nothing wrong with the 40min clip:

    00:00:00 to 40:27:26 OK

     

    Next, copy & pasted the good clip back onto the same timeline doubling it to 1:20:55:22 - but it refused to share to BD image:

    00:00:00 to 1:20:55:22 FAILED

     

    Other tests sharing a different timeline that had two cameras, transitions, stills, chapter markers, etc were equally inconclusive:

    00:00:00 to 36:39:03 FAILED

    00:00:00 to 25:00 02 FAILED

    00:00:00 to 24:00:02 FAILED

    00:00:00 to 23:59:02 FAILED

    --------------------------------------> (22:49:00 to 24:00:02 OK)

    00:00:00 to 22:49:09 OK

    00:00:00 to 20:00:00 OK

    00:00:00 to 19:00:02 OK

    00:00:00 to 15:00:02 OK

     

    Anyone know if removing & reinstalling FCPX and/or Compressor and declining the updates will be enough to restore BD burning? Or are the current download versions from Apple already "past the point of no BD-burn" ?
