I just started having this same problem.

I've been working on this project for more than a month. I've successfully burnt three DVDs. But now I can't get PP 1.5 to work.

Everything works fine until I get up to the "Burning" stage. Then I get an out of memory error.

The project is made up of some AVI clips and several stills. Many of the still are PSDs. I've converted many to JPGs and reduced their size. I did this because I kept getting a green screen in preview mode.

The longer I worked in PP, the more of these green screens I started seeing. Sometimes if I closed PP, the problem (of the green screens) would go away when I reopened the program.

But now I have this new problem of not being able to burn a DVD.

I tried rebooting and closing all other programs. I have read all the relevant documents and installed the recommended updates.

I even tried exporting through the Adobe Media Encoder. I got to 10:28 in my project and got a "video frame dropped" error message. (The project is 22 minutes long.) This occurred in the middle of a video clip that has been in the project from the beginning and has not caused any problems to date.

I must admit that I am extremely frustrated with these kinds of problems with Adobe video software. I've had several like this. What is especially annoying is that I am using the program according to its intended use and still having fatal problems.

It seems that the workarounds (which only occasionally work) always involve massive reorganization of projects that contain nothing improper or esoteric. They require meticulous unloading and reloading of drivers and programs which rarely solve the problem.

I'm tired of the finger pointing and statistical arguments: "The problem is being caused by drivers loaded by another program." "The vast majority of users do not experience that problem."

The Adobe programs seem to work for me most of the time. But then when I have a special project that needs to be done before a deadline, I run into one of these problems. PP and Encore seem to be the worst culprits.

I KNOW THAT THIS IS A USER-TO-USER FORUM AND NOT OPERATED BY ADOBE.

But I needed to express my frustration. And I hope that Adobe starts to hear some of the voices of their frustrated customers.

Now if someone has any ideas that haven't been suggested already in this thread, I am open to try them.

Thanks for wading through my rant,
