I still have a need to create Blu Ray discs with simple menus. Upon upgrading to PremiereCC 12.1.2, the M4V files (h.264 files with same blu ray presets as previous versions) Adobe Encore now freezes when importing these files. Thought it might be an Encore problem, but I made a new project in Encore and imported older M4V elementary streams with no problem. I tried exporting the files from Premiere 12.1.2 with various settings and presets to no avail. Encore locks up when trying to import the files.
Is anyone else experiencing this and, aside from the work-around of having to encode to another format and have Encore re-transcode the file, is there a way to fix this? I read somewhere else that for some reason, Premiere 12.1.2 was not creating M4V's with valid blu-ray specs.
Can this be fixed or can someone explain if I am doing something wrong. I understand that Encore has been discontinued. I have no problem with that. However, given proper files, the software still works and fulfills my requirements.
Thanks!
