Meanwhile, it is clear that the software in the combustion / Encodierbereich has a lot of mistakes. Who is like me 8 switched to 2013 due to the support of Windows, in my case, VDL 17, will be disappointed by performance and stability. By now I'm back to Windows 7, wg. video editing but also for Windows 8 in general. Examples of current problems. * Burn a BluRay with MPEG-2 Codec generated from any new or existing project out * .m2ts files without audio track. An export to an MPEG-2 file with the same parameters worked perfectly. * Burn a BluRay with H.264 codec funktoniert not, breaks with known bugs (see the forum). There is a (annoying) trick that another user has already been described in the forum with the error can be avoided. * The quality of encoded BluRay is abysmal. Improvement by changing the encoder settings are minimal possible or interrupts the Encodier process often with the new settings. * The BluRay menus do not work. I work with chapter menus (skip main menu). The thumbnails are displayed, but have no function for the Abspiele the chapter or the entire film. * For Windows 8: A little more complex projects stutter in the timeline when moving the playback marker and in the preview so it's been a slideshow.
The improvements of 2013 compared to 17 only marginally. Because of bugs introduced by 2013, the ignorance of the help desk and the inability to bring my project to the end, I advise VDL-2013. It was pure money and an enormous waste of time for me.
