I got my LG blu ray burner today, installed it fine and my Mac does recognize it. So I went to FCP and under the File>Share there is the option to burn Blu Ray discs. So I picked my blu ray burner as the drive and about an hour later it asks me to insert the media. So I insert a Blu ray but then it ejects it back out.
I did this about 4 times and then threw in a DVD to see what would happen. To my surprise it looked like it started to do something and the percentage complete went up a little, then it ejects the DVD out and asks for me to put in a dual layered media. I mean the file is no bigger than 2 gigs so my single layer BD-R should be fine. I have heard lots of people talking about Toast 10 to author blu ray's, but the point is why should I spend the money if FCP and compressor should be able to get the job done?
I have been using Titanium to burn DVD's. It usually takes about the length of the actually DVD to finish the burning process. Is this normal length or is there a faster program for burning DVD
First, let me apologize if this question has been asked a zillion times before. I have searched but failed to find anything that would help me.
I like to build CD's from ITunes. After I burn the CD, I listen to it on my computer...no problem.
However, when I insert the CD in another player to listen...NOTHING!!!!
In the past I have done this and had no problems listening on another device...but all of a sudden I am unable to do. To be honest with you, I don't know anything about MP3 or other code names that everyone talks about.
Is there any free or inexpensive software for Mac that'll take a movie and burn it onto a DVD in the right format?
I read Burn works good, but when I burned the movies to DVD they didn't play in my DVD player.[We use playstation 2 as a DVD player and it usually plays alot of DVD's I've burned]
I'm quite new to Mac, and although everything is pretty clear, I haven't yet figured out how to burn a DVD. Everytime I try, it'll give an error 0x8002006E and stop burning.
- Reading is and has always been fine. - I'm using Philips DVD-R discs. - I'm on a white 2Ghz MacBook It's supposed to be able to burn DVD-R, right?
I have tried to do it from the finder, and creating a disc image, and burning it from the disk utility.
I have converted two .avi files on my MBP to the .iso file. Then I open up the two files and they become the Audio_TS and Video_TS folders. However, when I try and drag those to Toast, and try to burn the files, Toast always gives me an error. My question, how do correctly convert .avi files to dvd format so I can burn to a blank DVD? I want more than one .avi file converted to dvd format on each DVD.
Does a new user like myself benefit from Roxio Toast? Or does the software that comes with Mac OS X capable of performing some simple CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R and DVR-RW burning fuctions. I want to organize some old digital images and want to get them off old CD's onto newer (better quality) DVD's and I may temporarily use some DVD-RW's and do my final burn on DVD's.
Another reason im afraid of switching to mac is i dont know what software there is out there for burning dvd's.. its so easy on windows... mac i have no idea... i currently use the following software to burn dvds on windows
DVD Fab 6 to make the copy
DVD Shrink to shrink it so it will fit on a blank dvd
so this is the second time it happened and as I do a lot of computer animation, it's starting to get annoying. I accedentally left my ACD on (30") today when i left at 8. when i got home at 5, and opened my computer animation app (blender, which starts out effectevly completely grey). I noticed a vauge impression of the screen i had left the acd on today. This DID happen before, and it goes away after a day or two. Still, it is annoying. My questions: A) is this bad B) what should I do?
I have created a DVD slideshow in iDVD but when I burn it to disc the quality of the images is unacceptable. I have tried different solutions from forums but the results with each thing I try don't resolve the problem.
I have created it in iMovie, Share as a quicktime movie onto my desktop, then moved this into iDVD but the results are still poor. I have also tried burning it through Roxio Toast, and a couple of other disc burning programmes. I have tried it with the images as jpeg's and tiff's on different resolutions, and I have made sure the ken burns effect is off.
Basically, I stick in a CD and it just stays there. Usually the computer does the rest, takes it in, you hear a whirring sound and stuff happens. I did it recently and nothing goes on - I have to take the CD out by essentially taking it by the edge that still sticks out.
I then went into the Apple Icon > About This Mac > More Info... > Disc Burning and found that no burning device indicated to be in existence. Clearly I should be able to have something there, right? Any drivers to download? Or should I just do a complete reboot of the system and go from there?
i dont know where my windows xp cd is for my pc so i downloaded it off of a website. however i do still have the paper with serial key so i can install it. the file that i downloaded was a .daa file but i dont know how i am supposed to burn the thing. i have Toast Titanium and burned with the data option and the .iso option but both did not work.
I've read numerous posts here saying that its possible to use AVI files in iDVD to make a DVD, but I can't figure out how to do it. I have a series of AVI files that I want to burn to a DVD that will work on any DVD player but iDVD won't even let me preview them (I just get a blank black screen)...
I currently have the 3 Panther install .dmg files on my PC hard drive.
I want to burn them on to disk using Nero on my PC so I can boot up my PowerG4 and erase/partition my hard drive and replace my current useless OS X.1.5
I have tried changing the name to ISO and burning which works BUT when i insert the disk into my mac, the install file has changed from and application to a package which will not open or but from restart!
I noticed that through darker colored windows I can see very faded images of my desktop icons and sometimes other windows on it. I think the still images are burning onto the screen. Is there anyway to keep this from happening, and will the damage already done disappear eventually?
I was trying to burn a DVD with the Built In MAC DVD Burning App but it had a hard time burning the DVD, but once i tried Toast Titanium 10 it seemed to work much better!
Is this the general consensus, that Toast is much better burning software than the built in Mac Burner ?
I have handbrake and mac the ripper to copy dvds to my computer, but where can I get an app that takes the file and burns it to a DVD so I can watch it with a dvd player.
find some burning software or freeware . Also the software that gives you the specs of your battery and one that tells you about the wi-fi signal if it is strong or weak . And any other free stuff that I should have for the mac..
Everytime I burn a DVD I get an error. It burns the DVD but when it verifys the disc I get an error. I have Leopard install everything else is working fine. How can I fix this?
