1. Re: DVD Folder?
Bill Hunt Jun 19, 2012 2:05 PM (in response to mentalcase129)Yes, you can Burn to Folder, and Encore will create a VIDEO_TS folder, with the appropriate files inside. That folder can then be transferred to your laptop.There, you can use the great, little burning utility, ImgBurn, to do the physical burn.
You can also Burn to Image, that will create an ISO file, which will contain the VIDEO_TS folder and files inside of it. ImgBurn can burn a DVD-Video from that ISO.
Good luck,
Hunt

John T Smith Jun 19, 2012 2:43 PM (in response to mentalcase129)If you are on Windows (you don't say) a link to the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
I actually use Imgburn for ALL of my file/folder to DVD writing

3. Re: DVD Folder?
mentalcase129 Sep 3, 2012 5:35 PM (in response to John T Smith)Okay so both you guys' advice was great. I rendered out a DVD folder from encore on my main computer. Then burned it on my laptop with ImgBurn and everything worked perfectly with no complaints. I just added something to my project though for a specific screening and tried to do the same thing but now I'm having trouble and I haven't done anything differently that I'm aware of. I get this message when I try to burn it "Fix VTS sectors Failed! Reason: VIDEO_TS.IFO is not a valid IFO File."
I can try burning to image as you had also suggested but I don't understand why I am suddenly having this difficulty. I litterally took the encore file from before and simply saved it under a new name and added a new video file to play after the main video then exported it with the same settings it had saved from before. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Stan Jones Sep 3, 2012 5:52 PM (in response to mentalcase129)The error is from imgburn, right?
Did you build to the same directory as before? Or change a file but use the same name as one of the previous files?

How did you save it under a new name? What specifically did you do?
I would just try that again. Be very careful not to change anything outside Encore. If you are replacing files, use different names.

mentalcase129 Sep 3, 2012 9:15 PM (in response to Stan Jones)I opened the file and went save as...then changed the name and added the new video. When I exported it I exported to a different folder/name from before. I should also mention that I previewed the movie in encore and it worked fine, so all the individual files within it seem to be without problems, it's not till I export it to a folder and try to burn it that I have trouble.

Stan Jones Sep 4, 2012 5:13 AM (in response to mentalcase129)I think that "should have" worked.
I would try it again.

7. Re: DVD Folder?
mentalcase129 Sep 4, 2012 1:31 PM (in response to Stan Jones)ARG!! I've retried it several times now and I have the same issue everytime. This most recent attempt I had also rerendered m2v of the video I'm adding from Premiere and then reimported in case something screwy happened during the encoding of the new video. Still the same message. "Fix VTS sectors Failed! Reason: VIDEO_TS.IFO is not a valid IFO File."

Keith_Clark Sep 4, 2012 2:27 PM (in response to mentalcase129)sometimes encore just doesnt want it's succesful projects to be tampered with afterwards. you may have to open encore, choose new project, and just build the disc all over again as a last ditch effort.

It's an old thread, but I believe I found the culprit. In my case it was simply copy protection. Make sure that all protection are checked off and that unlimited copies are allowed (which makes sense, you don't wan't encryption in there).
The error went away.

10. Re: DVD Folder?
John T Smith Sep 3, 2013 5:29 PM (in response to Vincent Becquiot)Encore does not do DIRECT copy protection... you create a special file (I don't know the details, I do to protection) and then you give that file (on VTS tape???) to a replication company... that replication company adds the copy protection to your special file and produces the "glass master" to "press" duplicates out of "hot plastic"
So... if you tell Encore to do copy protection and then try and write your output to a DVD... it won't work

Vincent Becquiot Sep 3, 2013 8:53 PM (in response to John T Smith)Hi John,
This was just in relation with imgburn errors, ex[porting as a folder. The basic protection ("No copies" drop down), not Macrovison, does seem to encrypt the IFO files.
With it enabled, Imgburn sees them as corrupted
