Applications :: Burn DVD's From IMovie Without IDVD?

Jun 21, 2005

I have iMovie 2.1.2 on a Mac G4 with a superdrive burner. I've captured video from my mini-dv camcorder and now I want to put it on DVD to be played on any DVD player.

I've tried a few of the "expert" settings to export it, but none do the trick as far as producing playable DVD's. I have toast titanium 5 and I don't have Quicktime Pro. I also do not have iDVD.

I have Final Cut Pro on this computer, but have no idea how to use it.

Is there a simple way to to export directly from iMovie onto a playable DVD, or do I need something else?

Applications :: Burn DVD But Already Put IDVD As Default?

Jan 1, 2010

I have several seasons of a TV show downloaded to my MacBook Pro and I'd like to burn the content onto a blank DVD. I'm still new to Mac so I didn't know what applications could be used to do this. I thought iDVD could do it, so I when I inserted the blank DVD, I (stupidly) made it my default to have iDVD open when I put a blank DVD in. I found that it didn't work in iDVD so I'd like to just do it with Finder... How do I change my default setting so I can do it with Finder instead?

Software :: Idvd 5 Won't Burn Disc?

Aug 2, 2005

I set up iDVD to burn a disc of my movie; it did so just fine. I saved the set up, then tried to reburn additional DVDs. It opened ok, but refused to burn anything-when it got to the "Burn" stage, it would display "recording finished" then lock up.

Are there some preferences I can trash on this, or what?

Software :: IDVD Not Opening At All - How To Burn Dvd

Jul 7, 2008

Well, I've shot myself in the foot again. I wanted to make a demo video (see youtube, drumagination, new drum pedal) and I wanted to use iMovie '06 on my brand new iMac (running OSX 10.5.4). I deleted iDVD '08 and brought in just iMovie '06 and iDVD '06 from an iLife '06 disk. iMovie works fine, but iDVD '06 will not open.

To make matters worse, I've lost the disks that came with the machine.

Any ideas as to how to burn a DVD from here?

The guys at work convinced me that I could change out my own internal superdrive and I did. Now it will read disks but it won't burn from idvd or itunes. I get the message "burning preparation error: Not enough space for encoding the remaining assets. The weird thing is since I changed out my internal superdrive my external la cie DVD burner gives me the same message when I try to burn to it.

Applications :: Can Speed Up Idvd Burn Time

Nov 30, 2008

I'm an oldie so not very computer savvy, and a newbie here, so forgive me if this is the wrong place to post, or the topic has been dealt with before......

I have a macbook with 2.4ghz intel duo processor, 2 gigs of ram and a 150gig hard drive ( 50 gigs free ).

I've been downloading some free movies for the kids and burning copies with idvd. Trouble is it take 3-4 hours to burn each disk. The original files are .avi and range around 700mb.

I use the magicidvd option in idvd, as it seems the most straight forward. I drag and drop the avi into the movie box, but usually get a message saying the project is too big and I have to change settings in project info. Not fully sure why this is but I find setting the quality to 'professional' ( I think.....disc burning at present so can't open the menu, ) allows me to continue.

My questions are - Am I causing idvd to take longer by the method I've outlined above?

Is there a way to speed up the burn time? I would prefer not to have to buy some other software but am open to suggestions. If I could reduce the burn time with idvd to a couple of hours that would be fine.

Applications :: IDVD Audio Loss On DVD Burn

Dec 4, 2008

I edited a video in FCP and exported it as a quicktime. The resulting file is a little over an hour, about 13gb in size, and has 14 chapters. The quicktime movie plays perfectly. When I build the DVD in iDVD it works perfectly. However, once it's burned I lose the audio in the middle of the 13th chapter until the end. I've deleted preferences, re-exported the quicktime, created new DVD projects, used an older template (I'm now using a version 7 template).... I'm not sure what's going on!

Applications :: IDVD Does Not Burn - Freezing And Ejecting

May 19, 2009

I recently went all out for this girl and ended up having to make a Dual Layer dvd. After it went through all the stages of burning up to mixing I was met with this prompt and the dvd ejected. I slid the dvd back in and it stopped making noises after a few seconds. I wait until the time ran down to "about one minute" and then it froze for about three minutes until I got fed up and hit cancel. I can't figure out why this isn't working but I am pretty certain the DVD's are now unusable. The movie is just under the size for a DLDVD (7.21) but yeah.

I had a similar issue with itunes when burning CDs only when I reinserted the CD I successfully burned the music. If the trick is a full reinstall then please advise on how to not loose any data (I use time machine). Well I gave it another Go with a different movie that had just 1 menu with a filled drop zone and custom music and got this error (below). So I am going to copy my pref files and then delete the originals to see if that turns out.

Applications :: Alternative To IDVD To Burn 3 Hours Movie?

Jan 31, 2010

I've searched and I still cannot find a free program that will let me burn a movie to a DVD. I used handbrake to bring the video file down to 4.5 GB. I'm trying to put it on a 4.7 GB disc and iDVD still won't let me because it says it is too big! I've been tinkering with iDVD and it's making me crazy. There must be a way to just burn it. I don't need a menu. Keep in mind that I want to be able to watch it on a dvd player (as opposed to just transferring the file). Just an FYI, the video file is 3 hours and 28 mins. It can be .mkv or .mp4 (through handbrake).

PowerPC :: Use Emac To Burn IDVD Projects Created On MacBook?

Feb 27, 2007

I'm creating a slideshow DVD on a new MacBook. I want to burn it to a DVD, but my MacBook doesn't burn DVDs. I have an Emac (10.2.8) that can burn DVDs. Is there a way I can hook up the MacBook and eMac to burn an IDVD project created on a MacBook. I can't just do the project on iDVD on my emac as it's an old version of IDVD that doesn't support the transitions I'm using.

Applications :: Using Mov Files In IDVD, No Sound And No Video Play After Burn?

Apr 1, 2009

I have 12 Videos in .mov format that I saved from .wmv format using quicktime and flip4mac. I have also tried saving them as AVI and same result.

Here's the problem, when I put them into iDVD and save as disk image to check, the videos are there, but no sound. I tried also burning them to DVD, using a maxell DVD-R 16x, and all the will come up on the dvd is the title menu. Movies will not play on my macbook or in the dvd player on TV. I tried using the .avi format but there still was no sound, and the movies were really choppy.

if i try to use iMovie, it will not even import these .mov files (doesn't let me click on them to import)

is there another format i need to export to, or change some setting to get the sound in my project, and get the movies to play have i burn them?

All the movies are approx 1hr long except one, and I was using the best performance setting putting 2 movies per dvd.

OS X :: Using IDVD And Dmg File?

Jul 16, 2009

I read where it is good to save an iDVD project as a .dmg file so that burning it again later will be faster. I have done that with a project. Now I want to burn more copies, and just wanted to ask how to do this. Do I open iDVD and burn it from there? Or can I use Toast? If so, what setting? Or can I just drag the .dmg file onto a mounted DVD? I will want it to play on a standard DVD player, and for PC users to have access to the photo files that are included. It works fine that way when I have just used iDVD to burn it.

Applications :: Using IDVD File Sizes?

Apr 14, 2009

Whenever I try to write an .avi (or .mov) movie with iDVd onto DVD, it says: 'content reach maximum duration, pls remove some content' for movies over 700MB. That's without adding chapter markers etc...

I've tried using MPeg Streamclip and Prism to convert them to smaller sizes, but without any luck, they just come out bigger.
