Where am I going wrong? I burn Blu-ray disk put them in my Samsung BD-C5500 and nothing happens it cannot read the disk menu. Which means I cannot do a thing with the disk except use it as a coaster.
This is what I have done. I have two HDD backup drives, drive one with 1440 x 1080i projects and drive two with 1920 x 1080i projects.
TEST NUMBER ONE: I do a new system rebuild with Bogart 4.1g, restore the projects from backup drive one (projects 1440 x 1080i). Then load Arabesk 5.0a and no other software it loaded. I run Arabesk, select Blu-Ray, render a project, burn to a Blu-Ray disk, then try to play it back in my Samsung and it cannot load the disk. It dosen't matter what type of disk BD-R or BD-RE.
TEST NUMBER TWO: I do a new system rebuild with Bogart 4.1g, restore the projects from backup drive two (projects 1920 x 1080i). Then load Arabesk 5.0a and no other software it loaded. I run Arabesk, select Blu-Ray, render a project, burn to a Blu-Ray disk, then play it back in my Samsung the menu runs and the project is OK.
This looks like Arabesk has problems with 1440 x 1080i projects.
TEST NUMBER THREE: I do a new system rebuild with Bogart 4.1g, restore the projects from backup drive two (projects 1920 x 1080i). Then load Arabesk 5.0a and no other software it loaded. I downgrade a 1920 x 1080i project to 1440 x 1080i using clipboard use this project, run Arabesk, select Blu-Ray, render a project, burn to a Blu-Ray disk, then play it back in my Samsung the menu runs and the project is OK.
TEST NUMBER FOUR: I do a new system rebuild with Bogart 4.1g, restore the projects from backup drive one (projects 1440 x 1080i). Then load Arabesk 5.0a and no other software it loaded. I upgrade a 1440 x 1080i project to 1920 x 1080i using clipboard use this project, run Arabesk, select Blu-Ray, render a project, burn to a Blu-Ray disk, then play it back in my Samsung the menu runs and the project is OK.
Why did 1440 in test two work?
When I was using Bogart 3.5 and Arabesk 4, I had no problems playing back Blu-ray disks burn't from either format 1440 or 1920 in my Samsung player.
So the problem is not hardware Arabesk is the most likely suspect. Currently Arabesk appears to be real hit and miss technology.
