On my install CD for VS8 (upgrade) are the following files and folders: Ok, VS8 doesn't list or have what the successor versions call Content Packs. Pyro852 wrote:so where can i find this 'content pack'? If you have such a program, try disabling it. With Roxio's EMCS, you can internally disable this 'drag-n'-drop' utility, however with Nero's InCD you will need to un-install it through the Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs.These tend to hi-jack a DVD burner, and not allow other programs access or see it. Do you have Roxio Easy Media Creator Suite, or Nero's InCD installed? These may have installed a nasty Packet Writing utility, that tend to hi-jack DVD burners, not allowing other programs like VS to have access. Ulead/Corel has one such called Quick Drop, Nero and Roxio also have similar programs. Next would be another program that has a utility where you can drag and drop files to be burnt onto DVDs. When it boots up, it should see your DVD Burner as a 'new device' and want to install it. By reinstalling I mean just go to the Device Manager, locate your burner drive, then right-click and select Uninstall. Reinstalling your burner could correct this. One being that it is not seeing your DVD burner. There are only a couple of reasons why VS would not give the DVD option. In my copy it does have NTSC DVD as an option. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and the same problem persists. And yes, all that was done before installing video studio. Under 'hardware' in device manager, the dvd writer does show up, it says it is working properly, drivers are installed, and I've already burned a disc using that drive. I looked in the help file and all it said about output format was: “Click Create Disc in the Options Panel to output your project (together with other VideoStudio projects or videos) to create a VCD, SVCD, or DVD.” – So it seems DVD is supposed ot be an option…but, it’s not. I’ve never had to enable it before, it was always just listed as an output option along with VCD and SVCD.

I looked through my preferences options and project setting to see if I had to enable it someplace and I couldn’t find anything. It was just this last time I installed the program that it wasn’t listed. Now, I’ve been using Ulead VideoStudio 8 for several years and DVD has always been a selectable output format. There are no other options listed in the drop window besides VCD. I click the drop arrow to select DVD and it was not listed. At the top left where it says “Output disc format” the option “VCD” was selected.

I click on “Create Disc” and it brings up the menu. I reinstalled Ulead VideoStudio 8 and when I went to burn a DVD, I came across a problem.
