OS X :: Burning A Video DVD With A VIDEO_TS Folder
Feb 11, 2009
I would like to know how to burn a movie that I have in .avi format, and covert and burn it onto a DVD. I have managed to burn the .avi straight onto the DVD, but this means that I cannot view it in DVDPlayer.app because it needs a VIDEO_TS folder. (EDIT: Or I cannot view it in my DVD player, plugged into my television)So I just wanted to know how to burn my movie from an .avi format onto a DVD using the standard VIDEO_TS folder (and possibly an AUDIO_TS as well, if needed).BTW, if it is possible using the free Burn.app software, that would be great
i took a dvd of a sports game my friend shot. I used mac the ripper to rip it to my computer. I got the video_ts folder. I want to convert it to a disk image.How do i do that?What program will let me do that? (free i hope)
I want to backup a few of my rare DVDs that I have. I used RipIt to rip the DVD and now I have a folder with VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS in it. What freeware can I use to burn these to a DVDR so that it plays in any DVD player? I tried DVDRemaster too and I'm having the same issue. The file size is small enough to fit on a single layer DVDR.
I have been trying to backup a few .avi files I have onto DVDs and after reading over the forums I have aquired ffmpegx and Toast 8. I place the avi file into ffmpex, encode it with the dvdffmpeg format. But once i burn it with toast, it takes the original wide screen avi file and stretches it to full screen.
I tried re-encoding with the DVD 16:9 setting selected with ffmpeg and it seems to look better in a preview, but when I try and burn the Video_TS folder in Toast it gives me the CSS Encryption disk error, which I do not understand because I'm not copying a copyrighted dvd.
I am trying to back up some DVD is I OWN.I used MTR to get the Video_TS folder on my HD.I have been trying to get Burn to create a disk that will work on my stand alone DVD player (which supposedly supports DVD -/+R and RW well as DivX).WHICH TYPE OF DISK DO I TELL BURN TO CREATE? I've been trying to burn on to dual layer disk i.e 8.5 GB.Video_TS foldeer is 7 GBIf I chose the DATA TAB tell Burn to create a "DVD-video disk" I get a disk that my computer can play in the DVD App that functions like a DVD, BUT my stand alone DVD player won't recognise it. (tells me its a DATA disk).
What video format is best when using the "dvd video from video-TS" option in Toast 7.0.2? My goal is to burn a video onto a dvd and then watch it on any tv. So far, I've tried the .mpg and mpeg4 video formats. I find that the video quality with .mpg is poor with a jittery picture when watching it on tv via a dvd disk. The video itself plays fine on the computer, and the dvd-r disks that I use are of high quality. Comparatively, Toast did not accept the mpeg4 format when dragging this video into the "dvd video from video-TS" window.
I have an avi file of 140min in total as one single video. i want to burn it in idvd in a 4gb dvd. but iDvd is not letting me burn saying its exceddding more than the size of the dvd capacity. my avi file is 1gb only . what is the way to burn that file in idvd in one disc so that i can play it in my dvd player
I recently burned a couple of .avi and .mpg video files to a dual-layer DVD+R as a data disc (DVD-ROM) using the program "Burn" which is, in essence, a nicer front-end to Mac OS X's burning capabilities.
However, after burning, the video files on the disc are now unplayable. It seems like they are corrupt.
Am I doing something wrong? Do dual-layer discs need special settings to make it work as data discs?
I've been trying to burn a video from my Canon camcorder using iDVD and it keeps telling me that nothing is being captured. It seems like it should be such an easy process, but it is not working for me. I have imported the video to iMovie but cannot figure out how to burn a dvd from that application either.
I'm trying to burn a DVD that has both video and data. As in, when it's inserted into a regular DVD player it will play like a video DVD, but there's also data files if inserted into a computer. The video file is in a .iso format and the data files are .pdf's.
I just got an OWC Mercury Pro external Bluray burner that came bundled with Roxio Toast 11 Titanium. I'm editing with FCP6 as part of FCS2 and my version of Compressor is 3.0.5 so no "Share to Bluray" template is part of the default options.
The default Compressor options are:
DVCProHD 720p24 (the footage was shot and edited using this codec) HD DVD H.264 60 minutes HD uncompressed 8-bit or 10-bit
I've also considered exporting a Quicktime .MOV file and letting Toast do the compressing.
This is my first post, so please be gentle! I have a 2006/7 White Macbook Core2Duo 2.10Ghz, and I love compiling my own movie compilations via iDVD. The problem that I have is two fold; 1. I burnt 4 episodes of a Public Domain TV Show (3 Stooges) using one of the current menus, and it compiled lovely, burn to disc and verified, but then no sound from the episodes, even though on my master PC, the sound is there, and sound is also present when I copied to my Macbook. 2. I have tried another few discs, each time iDVD states that the disc could not be verified and that the disc is unreadable. Both have been burnt at 6x (my combo/super drives max). Do I possibly need a new drive? Is it worth me burning the project to TS_VIDEO folders on my desktop then burning them via Toast? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I'm wanting to delve deeper into iDVD and iMovie as I think they are spot on programs.
I have a lot of movies encoded with handbrake at the apple tv settings, and a few people have asked how to take one of those and re-convert it back into dvd files.
can this be done? I need to put a few backed up dvd's back onto dvd's cause i already got rid of them and i cannot watch the appletv handbrake version over at certain friends houses.
I tried doing the video files as data but they still show up with the .mp4 at the end and the dvd player will not recognize them.
I am clearing out my old IMac 10.4 & trying to make sure I am not losing precious memories but I cant seem to find certain home movies without hitting a problem. Some files end in .MOD or .MOI & comes up as file could not be opened & says its "not a movie file". I cannot see the same titles elsewhere but maybe in different formats which would play, I did notice the first time I uploaded them from my old JVC hard disc camcorder, that a named clip would appear it 2/3 different formats but since that was my first time dealing with movie files, I didn't understand it. Now I cannot see where the other different formats are. I have searched but they are all that will come up. There is even one or two which are .DV but again says could not be opened but this time also says "the end of the file was reached".
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
I have a 1st generation macbook pro and I am running OSX 10.4.11. For some reason, every time i try to burn a disk or if I am watching high resolution video the computer will just crash and completely shut off. It only happens if I am doing one of these two things. Everything always seems to be fine when I turn it back on.
I typically use handbrake to rip my DVDs, but as far as I know, I can only create AVI's and MKV's from Handbrake (correct me if I'm wrong). I also really like having the VIDEO_TS file intact on my computer, so that I can still access the DVD's menus, special features, etc. Sometimes I am able to just copy the VIDEO_TS file directly off the DVD to my desktop, but sometimes it says that I "do not have the permissions" to do so.... or something along those lines. I understand that most DVDs are protected so you can't just copy them, but it seems that my computer allows me to copy the VIDEO_TS sometimes and not others. And this is with the SAME DVD.
I currently use fairmount to strip off the encrypto,but after that it takes FOR EVER to have it spin up the dvd all the way it needs to in order to rip the dvd.I am using either dvd2onex or mac the ripper, but since fairmount is taking so long when i start to rip the video _ts folder to the hrddrive, it causes my movies to stutter, and even bounce around when i go to make a handbrake backup!what other apps will allow you to rip the video_ts folders from your own dvd's?
I have some material on my Mac which I want to crop (I don't need the whole video). iMovie and Premiere Pro don't seem to open the whole folder, and Googling only gives me results with AVI/MPEG etc.
i'm a recent mac convert and i have no idea how to convert "VIDEO_TS" folders that come from dvds into a single movie file (preferably .avi). does anybody have any suggestions on what software is best suited for this scenario?
I am trying to make some backups of some of my DVD collection. I am using Toast to attempt to burn the VIDEO_TS, but of course it complains about the encryption which is fair enough.I have trying using Mactheripper and also SimplyBurns with no success.Does anyone have a definitive guide on how to burn encrypted VIDEO_TS to DVD-R on OSX?
I want to burn a VIDEO_TS folder of 5,2GB to a 4,7GB DVD5.So what I want is basically DVD-Shrink for Mac OS X. If you google that, you only come across MacTheRipper - which I already did the Ripping with, but it doesn't shrink the DVD.
I've searched and searched and can't find an application that can do what AquaISO http://dhost.info/aquatsr/?page=proj...roject=aquaiso does so simply and well, with the ADDITION of batch conversion. AquaISO does single files beautifully and has never failed, but I have several hundred files that need to be converted the same way
Couldn't find the answer on Mroogle.1. Removed optical drive from 2007 MacBook Pro2. Installed Optibay alternative in MacBook Pro3. Installed 320 GB HDD in "Optibay"4. Attempted to watch a VIDEO_TS folder with DVD Player5. Upon dragging folder to DVD Player icon this message appears:There was an initialization error A valid DVD drive could not be found [-70012]6. Attempted to load with VLC, no luck. 7. Videos are located on HDD in "Optibay", FYI.I've found a little program that apparently switches the optical drive DVD player looks for to an external one, which I posses, but I don't want to have to unhook my USB dvd drive from its happy little resting place at my desk, just to watch a movie on my TV, sitting in bed, at a friends' house or on a plane or something.
Since the MBA has no internal DVD drive, I would like to pre load some DVD's on the MBA hard drive before I go on the road. I was thinking of using mac the ripper to rip my personal DVD. Is there a way in Front Row to import video_ts files without using an optical disk? As far as memory serves this wasn't possible with Tiger.If this is impossible what is an other way to store DVD's on my hard drive and watch them in front row?
