Can't burn more than 2 hours using DVDSP 4

I am having trouble burning my project to a DVD. I have created 2 Quicktime.dv movies, in iMovie, that are approximately 1 hour 10 minutes each. I have taken the bitrate, in Preferences, all the way down to 2.0, using One Pass, and all I get is the message that says there is not enough space on the output media. What am I missing that I can't fit both of these movies on one 4.7 gig DVD blank?
Thank you.

Hi james - welcome to the discussions.
One reason for this error is that your hard drive is getting full. before DVDSP writes to disc it creates a copy of the build files in a location you specify. Have you got enough room on your drive?
The second thing to try is to encode these movies before you bring them in to DVDSP - this will give you a far more accurate idea of the file sizes you are dealing with. You should certainly be able to get your project onto a DVD-R with such a low bitrate, but you are likely to lose quality doing so. You can also afford to raise that bitrate slightly. If you encode the audio to AC3 you will free even more room for the video and you could get away with 2.5 as a setting... still woefully low for DV material.
Your options are therefore to either use DL DVD-R, or encode using MPEG1, or encode using MPEG2 at Half D1 resolution.

How can I burn more than 1 movie to a DVD when there is room on the disc for it. Premiere wants to overwrite once 1 movie is burned to the disc

How can I burn more than 1 movie onto a DVD? Once 1 movie is burned successfully to the disc, I try to burn another movie and Premiere wants to overwrite the first movie. One movie is 1.2 GB, second is 2.3; so there is room on a 4.7 GB DVD-RW.

What you report is what it is.
Each burn to of Timeline content to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc results in the disc containing one OpenDVD Folder and one VIDEO_TS Folder.
Only one VIDEO_TS Folder can be put on a DVD-VIDEO disc even when Premiere Elements is not involved. I have seen that written about online, and I have
never found a way to overcome what seems to be basic behavior description of DVD-VIDEO..
Premiere Elements will allow you to write to a disc with content already on it, but only after you give the OK for erasing the disc content before going ahead
with the burn to.
If you have several movies, one possibility is to build a Timeline with the movies, use stop markers, and setup disc menus according so that the viewer
can selectively watch the movies. More on that later if wanted.
Any questions or need clarification, please ask.
Thank you.

DVD Burn more than three hours

I have a video that lasts more than three hours and I want to burn to DVD. How I can compress it but I lose quality among all video on the DVD?

Hi
DL-DVDs - can hold up to 4 hours
Using Toast™ and a SL-DVD can hold about 10 hours - BUT at a quality so bad that VHS-tapes recorded in EP-mode (x4) Will look excellent in comparision.

Encore can't burn more than one DVD at a time: Sense Code 56400

For a long time now I've been unable to burn multiple DVD's at a time. I burn more than one and I get an error and have to make a coaster out of yet another DVD
I just upgraded to 24 gb of DDR3 PC 1600 RAM, I have an 6 Core Processor, I have 7.8 on everything accept my hard drive which is 7.0 out of 7.9 according to my Windows 7 Pro. 64 bit system.
I have 2 different DVD burners, one is a blu-ray burner too. I have the same issues, only different error readings it seems, on both drives. The first drive didn't burn even one for some reason so I tried the second. The second drive would burned 3 and on the fourth I got the errors' which I've included screen shots of below. I was surprised I got through three before I got to this error. By the end of the week I have a large project I need to make 30 DVD's of. HELP!!!!!
A long time ago on my older machine I had similar problems and I went through different drives and discs until I seemed to come up with the magic combination which seemed to be a Plextor burner and Verbatim. But, then i got a bad batch of verbatim and tried Maxell and used those successfully for a while. Right now I'm using what a friend gave me, TDK's. I'm wondering if that's what the problem is... HELP!!!!

I have managed to get it to work consistently now. I just burned 20 DVD's without a problem.
I tried everything you suggested except the imageburn software. I didn't like that site, I was too anxious to try and figure out where to download that software in the midst of all the advertisements on that site.
After clearing out everything in startup and services except what I needed I still wasn't able to burn successfully. Finally I went and purchased some Verbatim DVD-R discs and wahlah! Actually, after the first try with the verbatim I had an error code when trying to burn with Encore. So, I created and image file as you suggested and then I used Cyberlink's Power2Go to burn the image file and from there on it seems everything is solid.
I think the biggest problem was using TDK discs. I came to the realization a few years ago that certain disks are not as predictable as others and that verbatim and maxell seem to be the best. I did get one bad batch of verbatim though one time and that's when I switched to Maxell. My friend gave me 200 of the TDK's and I've been having problems ever since. But, I wasn't sure what it was exactly because he gave me those around the same time I rebuilt my system.
I had also found the Plextor seems to be the best bet for burners. But, I had been using an HP one lately and thought maybe that was the problem. However, now it seems to be fine.
I really don't know what fixed it. I mean, nothing definitely worked until I started using the Verbatim today. But, that first verbatim erroring perplexed me. I had done some other things too, like removed some programs, like a bunch of HP printer crap. I even removed my virus software, Window Security Essentials. I just reinstalled it so now I'm wondering if I can burn as consistently. I had seen somewhere where someone said they removed Windows' Defender to get theirs working.
Anyways, I guess what I need to do is format my main hard drive, only put adobe stuff on it, and then take my old computer set it up for everything else. That'll probably be the best thing to do... If I have anymore problems like this I'm doing that right away!

How can i choose more than one transition using idvd. please help..

I can't sequence more than 24 hours of footage in Adobe Premiere Pro

I'm trying to put together 25 (full) days worth of video in Premiere Pro. Is this even possible? I can't get anything past 24 hours to sequence together.
Thanks!!

I would load a clip into the Source Monitor, pick the first frame you want to use, press Shift+E (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+E (Win) to Export Frame, then on the NumPad, type +80000 and press NumPad's Enter key to jump forward. Then repeat until you reach end of clip. If there's a way to automate this, I'm not aware of it.
Note that to amass enough frames for 3 minutes @ 30fps, you'll have to do this 5400 times (30x60x3); 2 minutes at 24fps = a mere 2880 reps. And once you're finished grabbing all the stills, if you want to import them as a frame sequence, you'll need to batch rename them with the same base name and an incrementing number. The challenge there will be to make sure all the images are in the right order before batch renaming in Bridge.
To me, this seems like a painful approach.

Can't burn more than 1 DVD

So I finally got iDVD to work - I can't use a theme or anything, I'm just burning "one Step DVD from Movie..." I'll deal with the theme problem later but I really need these DVDs burned by tomorrow... so here's the problem: I burn the DVD just fine, the disk ejects and then iDVD says "done" and it is stuck 'thinking'. Then have to force quit and open iDVD back up to burn another disk. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Can you save your DVD project as a disk image? It will go through all the encoding, but instead of burning a disk, you get a disk image that is the exact copy of the DVD. You can use the disk image to burn further DVDs through Disk Utility. If you go this route whenever you make a DVD project, you can save yourself wasted disks if there is a problem with burning.
Since you already have a disk that burned, you can use it to make a disk image and do the burning of the rest of the disks from the disk image created from that.

How can I burn more than 7 of the same playlists?

Burning just 7 playlists seems arbitrary. No one in their right mind would use this method to pirate music. I am making Christmas gifts for friends. Is there a way around this limitation?

Delete the playlist and remake it...

Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.

Do you mean when you say its locked to another carrier other then the one im using, that maybe my insurance sent me an iphone thats for a different network for example orange and not mine which is o2?

PP 2.0: can't render more than a two-hour video

I have an AVI file (34 gig) that I'm rendering into an MPEG4 file. The original is 2 hours and 45 minutes long. However, when I render it, the MPEG4 version truncates at roughly 1 hour and 55 minutes in.
I have no idea why this happens: I've specified rendering the full project (it's just the one clip), and specifying a work area that's 2h50m long.
I _suspect_ that it may be disk space; the original AVI is 34 gig, I have about 26 gig free on the hard drive, and the final MPEG4 can't be more than six gig or so. And Premiere doesn't give me any "out of disk space" errors. So I'm stumped.

I have about 26 gig free on the hard drive
I'd definitely say that Harm is right on this one. Besides the MPEG file, PrPro needs to create some working files too. Actually, if you are going to a muxed file, it will also do yours as two files (Audio & Video) and then "join" them for the final.
You need much more space, than just for your resultant file.
I use externals for portability between machines. For me, the FW-800's work well, and I have their drive letters set in the OS of each machine. Though not the ideal setup for speed, and ease of editing, I have each Project contained, with Scratch Disks on the external. Again, to stress, this is NOT the ideal allocation of HDD's for editing, but allows me to whisk an external upstairs, and all is contained. I live with the performance hit incurred with this scheme.
I do agree with Harm also on the eSATA 7200RPM. To use FW-800, you'll incur about the same expenses, as the eSATA, and it WILL be better and faster. I have tried FW-400 HDD's, and found them to be so horribly slow. I could not stand the wait, so relegated those to archival storage only. Still, if one gets your Project done (just be very patient), the FW-400 should work. I found earlier on that USB just had too many issues, as well as slowness. I would strongly recommend against going USB, if at all possible.
Good luck, and start shopping for two more internals. They are getting cheaper by the week.

Can I export (burn) more than one slide show to the same DVD

Can I export (burn) more than one slide show I created in iPhoto to the same DVD, and if yes, how?

Yes. If you're using iDVD export the slideshow out of iPhoto at 480p size and drag it into an open iDVD menu window, being careful to avoid any drop zones. iDVD can handle up to 120 minutes of playing time (movies plus menus) on a single layer DVD disk.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

You can seach the net for solutions like this one http://appletvvpn.com/how-to-connect-apple-tv-2-to-vpn/ another idea is to use a PC as the control and fit that with a wireless card and set up a ad hoc wireless network that the Apple TV uses.
