Select Yes or No in the Multiplex Audio/Video list.
The first time you compile your Blu-ray Disc, Multiplex Audio/Video must be set to Yes (a full compile) so
that the video structure defined in the Playlist tree can be generated and the elementary video and audio
streams can be muxed into transport streams that are readable by Blu-ray Disc players.
For subsequent compilations, you can set Multiplex Audio/Video to No or click the Quick Compile button.
You would use Quick Compile if you have made edits to you menu authoring but you have not made any
changes to your segments or chapters. When Multiplex Audio/Video is set to No, DoStudio Authoring will
reuse the multiplexed files from the last compile and only rewrite the necessary navigation code (BD-J). A
good rule of thumb is that if you have made edits to your segments or chapters, you will need to do a full
compile. If you have only made changes to the Menu Elements window, added or changed actions, or
edited remote control navigation, you can do a Quick Compile. This feature can save you many hours over
the course of authoring your Blu-ray Disc.
Compile error messages
During the compile process, DoStudio Authoring checks for any errors in your disc that will prevent it from
functioning properly. Any issues are reported in the compile window and the compile process is canceled.
Incomplete Disc Settings
You must enter an Organization ID and an Application ID in your Disc Information settings in order to
successfully compile your Blu-ray Disc. The compiler will notify you if these are missing.
Missing First Play Image
Your project must contain a First Play image. The compiler will notify you if it is missing.
Incomplete Properties for Actions
The compiler will notify you if you have authored a menu action but have not setup the properties for the
action properly. Normally, this will occur if you have setup an action and then edited or deleted the target
of the action. The compiler will tell you which menu element or playlist item contains the faulty action.
The Playlist Is Invalid
This message will occur occasionally when you are opening a project created in a 1.x version of DoStudio
Authoring. Save the project, close DoStudio Authoring, and then reopen your project.
Multiplexing the Assets Has Failed
This message indicates an error in your video and audio streams. If your video and audio streams contain
an error or are in some way not compliant with the Blu-ray Disc specification, the muxer will return this
error. When this occurs, you must determine which of your streams has the error. The compiler does not
pinpoint which file is problematic at this point.
This message can also occur when you do not have enough free space on your hard drive to compile your
disc image.
