Replicator Rejection

Hi Folks

We sent two DVD-Rs to a replicator each containing the same DDP 2.0 image for a single layer title. Were now getting fatal errors from their Eclipse analysis:

location: 196,608 Input shorter than expected
location: 2,413,135 Unreadable sector in file
location: 2,413,391 Unreadable sector in file

Wish I had more info than that at this point. I know DVD-R shouldn't be sent but thats how they went out (long story). Would sending these images on USB or firewire correct the problem? Trying to pinpoint the issue here.

Eric

Thanks Larry

That was the issue. We downloaded the newest version you released a month ago and wrote the disc as DVD-ROM (UDF) and it was accepted fine. I wish were could deliver these images on USB or Firewire but out client's other vendor (Technicolor) delivers ALL their DDPs on DVD-Rs (which surprised me) - we didn't want to to stand out as the chumps who seemed apprehensive over such things :)

Most likely

Yes, it's probably read/write errors. The numbers quoted are consistent, and near the end of the disc. You can look at the DVDAE log file in your user preferences to see what it should have written. Subtract the fixed number 196608 from sector numbers quoted by Eclipse to get the sector numbers in the log. See the DVDAE preferences for the max DVD-5 sectors.

Regards,

Larry
