Encoding fails with errNo 5

Using MEP Premium - just installed today. Last line of log file says: DBK BurnProject: 10 - movie encoding failed. Working on Windows 10 machine with an EVGA GeForce GTX 1060. My MB is a GigaByte GA-H97-D3H. Windows 10 is fully updated (in fact just freshly installed).

Video is only about 4 minutes long with a minimum of material, although that shouldn't be it, because the failure occurs immediately after hitting the burn button.

Additionally, a little two pic timeline was tried with file encoding only (no burn). It started to encode, but failed with errNo 13 - menu rendering failed. The menu was created by MEP as a single entry (the choice given before doing the burn).

. . . . Magix needs to fix that, though. Shouldn't have to double size to get chapters on one page. . . . .

There is nothing to fix - the DVD specification standard defines title (full movie) menus and chapter menus as being 2 separate items.

MEP's disc menu system is, within limits, reasonably flexible, however it does miss out many advanced features that are found in some Disc Authoring software - one of the best, DVD Architect (formerly Sony DVD Architect) has been dropped by Magix due to the waning popularity of disc creation as more online/cloud based options take over.
