pre render not working in nero 2018
i recently upgraded from nero 2014 to nero 2018 platinum I have just tried to make a dvd when I get to the part where I have to pre render nothing happens

Hi Martin-
Which menu template are you using?
Are you using a Titles and Chapters menu or are you using a Titles Only menu? -
-
Hello thankyou for your reply, I am using titles and chapters menu with a photo in the background on the menu screen, I have tried 2 different projects but like I say when I get to the pre render screen it says now generating menu animation but it doesn't do anything, whereas when I had nero 2014 it worked fine and I haven't done anything different.any help will be most appreciated thankyou.

You didn't say which template you're using.
How large is your project?
Does it say that it's rendering?
It shouldn't start the rendering unless you tell it to. -

Hello sorry for my delay in getting back to you. the template I am using is customise, and my project is about 1.2 gb get to the page about pre render and it says a preview of animated menus needs a pre rendering, I then click pre render and a box opens that says now generating menu animation but nothing happens !

In the screen, all it should say is that "a preview of animated menus needs a pre-rendering." That informational point appears, regardless of the type of project but you only need to pre-render if the menu has animation. However, it should go through the motions for every type of project if you click on it.
Depending on the size of your project and your system, rendering can take a long time. If you let it go half an hour, does the green bar on the top of the screen move? -
-
Hello I had the render on for 45 mins and the green bar didn't move at all

martin,
Have you tried a minimal test such as that shown in this YouTube video:

-
What was the result?

The Minimal Test Works fine but my other project is still the same any idea what my next move is please.

Either there's a problem with the menu or it's just taking it's sweet old time. If you click on Advanced Editing in the Customization tab, you should see a option to check your project. If you do that, does it find any problems?
You can go to tech support about this issue.
In the mean time, this problem shouldn't prevent you from burning your project. -

i checked the customization tab and there was no problems but obviously something is not right, I will go to tech support, just as a matter of interest I re installed nero 2014 burnt the same project I was trying to do in nero 2018 platinum the pre render took 1 minute and the whole disc was done in about 20 minutes.

As I said, this problem shouldn't prevent you from burning your project successfully in v2018.
Please let us know what tech support has to say. -

I have a similar problem using Nero Video 2018 platinum
If I have predefined audio set for the menu then the pre-render works fine. If I have no audio the pre-render screen ("Now generating Menu Animation") sits there doing nothing. Task manager shows Nero using 0% CPU. When actually rendering it shows 40% or thereabouts.
If I pre-render with audio and then go back and delete the audio the pre-render is lost and it sits there again.
I tried to burn without doing the pre-render and Nero failed with an error log.
I didn't have this problem with Nero 2017 -

I had a similar issue burning from Nero Video 2018. I could export successfully and after burning a disc made some changes to the file (adding a Title Intro video). After reading this string, looked for and noticed that my intro file/video did not have audio, added a short audio file and voila, the burn process completed successfully.
