DVD reads only on computer

Hi there,
From my FCP project I exported with compressor to prepare .mv and ac3 files to burn a DVD with DVDSP.
As advised on this forum, I first built an img file on my desktop before burning several copies of the DVDs. Then, after checking that it was alright, used the img file to burn a DVD with Toast 10, by dragging my file on the toast icon.
I used default options of Toast.
All went fine except that the resulting DVD reads ony on computers (mac book and imac) but not on my home DVD player which says disk cannot be read.
Could some one help me ?
Thanks in advance

2 things that pop into my head.
1. Is the DVD NTSC playing on an NTSC player or the same for PAL? Meaning is your DVD the right format for the player.
2. If the DVD is in your computer and at the Finder level when you highlight the disk in the computer are the both the TS folders the next level of the disk. I'm wondering if in Toast you burned an img instead of the folders inside. I personally don't make img files not that it's wrong to do it or not. Just not my workflow. Perhaps the DVD player is trying to play an img instead of the TS folders.

    Hello skiboat2, 
    Because the permissions have been changed, you will need to put them back to what they were before. One of the ways to do that is to reinstall your OS X to make sure that everything permission wise gets put back to what it needs to be to work properly. Based of to the operating system that you say you have, I have provided the steps for reinstalling Snow Leopard. When doing this, it does not overwrite your personal data; it only touches the operating system.

  • HT1095 Media browser does not come up as an option I burnt to dvd on desktop but could not loop the movie and it will not play on tv dvd player, only on computer.

    I burnt my iMovie onto dvd but could not see how to make it looped. When completed it will only play on my computer not my tv dvd player. Please help.

    Thank you very much.

  • No audio playing on DVD player, only on computer

    I just created my first DVD.
    The source is a DV camcorder brought into iMovie and imported into iDVD
    Everything went fine on my computer, but when i brought it to my DVD player hooked up to my TV there was no sound, just a buzz (yes I checked another DVD which worked fine on the TV). Checking again on my computer, the DVD played (from the DVD) WITH sound. However, for some reason there is no sound when played through the TV DVD player
    I am working in an international environment. I thought perhaps the issue is related to that so I tried making the DVD both as NTSC and as PAL with the same results.
    ( I followed instructions from <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=165256> and <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50156>)
    The DVD player is a Hyundai multizone-multisystem HU-D6240. The TV is multisystem and the DV camcorder is NTSC.
    Note that when I exported the movie from iMovie to qt in PAL format I also specified 16 bit stereo audio - however the original DV was recorded on the camcorder with 12 bit audio. - Does this matter?
    Under project info in both the NTSC and the PAL version I see the mov files have both audio and video.
    Any ideas?!

    ive had the same problem with the audio (music) dropping off of my burned dvds and found it to essentially be either one or both of these problems:
    1) your Quicktime installation is corrupt. Locate the quicktime plist file and delete it in your Library. Then download the newest Quicktime only installer (currently 7.4.5) and reinstall.
    2) If you have Quicktime Pro, export your videos to a standard definition(SD) MP4. I've found that although the .mov files will play correctly, for some reason with all of the video and audio tracks integrated in the MP4 instead of separate, helps to maintain its integrity.
    hope this helps!
    Also, to help maintain the audio during the movie file (slideshow), I have Quicktime Pro, which allows me to add the music files to the .mov files separately,so after ive exported the keynote presentation to QT, I added the music files, then exported the file to an MP4. Used that MP4 file in iDVD and the audio sticks. The advantage is that you can also control more specifically how the music is played during your presentation, if transitions and timing are important to matching the music precisely.

  • Help needed.. Changed HD, 'broken' DVD reader, working recovery disks.. how to?

    Hello all, hope someone can help me here. I have a Toshiba Satellite p300-19f, win vista 32 in dotation. 
    Long story short, the computer has served me well for roughly 3 years now. All at a sudden, on startup when on windows charging page (with win logo and green counter going up), it started freezing. 
    I tried recovering last working win configuration, I tried recovering precedent backup points, at times I solved until the problem randomly showed up again (same identical problem), so ultimately I formatted and re-installed fresh vanilla version from recovery partition succesfully. Problem went away, until it came back. (all of this in 1 month time span)
    It worked ok for a couple weeks, and started giving the same problem again. Ultimately I figured out (I immagine) that the hard drive must have some problems, as this freezing on windows startup (immediately distinguishable as the cpu stops working / the light in front stops twinkling) occured basically randomly, regardless of software installed in the pc, or time since last format.
    I decided to change the hard drive, but obviously have the problem of the new operating system. My dvd burner is broken, or at least does not work reliably. I got an external sony burner and through the toshiba disk creator applet made the recovery disks (2 DVDs) successfully.
    I changed the hard drive, tried to reboot and reistall using in laptop dvd, when it gets to copy the first big file it gives a CRC error, an aborts the whole thing (sending me to a prompt of commands though.. where I copied the whole content of the DVDs on the just made HDDrecovery folder in v: through the recognized usb external burner, but the computer failed to recognize on later startups).So I tried to boot it up with the recovery disks in the external burner (bios DOES support USB boot), the disks are read, the toshiba applet for recovery is started, and as soon as it gets to the dos-like windows it freezes on "check for medium in drive".
    I have the recovery disks, I have a half working dvd reader in the pc that gives errors when copying the big files and aborts installation. I have an external dvd reader that is recognized at boot, starts the installation, but fails to find "the medium"...
    I hope I have explained my problem more or less.. what can I do (apart from buying a new working dvd reader for the computer) ?
    If there are specific info I need to give on hardware/software, please let me know.
    Thanks,

    It's probable that the CD 'side' of the combo drive has failed.  That you cannot boot from the recovery CD is pretty much proof of the failure.  

  • On windows 8 and itunes I have importing problems the DVD is only reading the music cd from 1.5x to 4.0x for 95% of the time, it does hit speeds of 30x for the other 5% of the time. Is it a driver issue with the DVD or is it  a windows 8 issue?

    No. You have no alternative but to plug it into a computer running iTunes and restore it.

  • Read only data DVD

    A photographer has burned me a dvd with photos in NEF format. I can view them with "Quick View", but i can't copy them to my computer. I get an error code -8060 or -35. Under permissions of dvd properties it is "read only". Is it still possible to copy them or I shoold ask photographer to deliver photos to me in some other way?

    My MacBook accepts DVDs/CDs and reads/plays them but sends me an error message every time I try to burn. This is totally unacceptable. Does anyone else have this problem?

  • Shared Computer over Ethernet is creating read-only files and folders

    Hi,
    I have set up a ssecond mac connected to my G4 via ethernet connection. We are both using my mac as the main computter and both working from one folder on it. BUT when the second computer creates a folder or saves a job into this folder the permissions are set for them to 'read only'.
    How do you make it so whatever they create is all read and write.
    The second mac is logining is not as the administrator but as a normal user. I do not want them to have full access.

    Hello DH-Studio
    Hi, this is still causing me problems, is there another way?
    Sharepoints does work howerver the other way to do this that does not involve using UNIX commands is to run Server Software such as Mac OSX Server.
    The 10 User licenced version is affordable and it has an excellent GUI called the Workgroup Manager which can setup sharepoints, users & groups permissions very easily. It has many other benefits.
    Other than that their are UNIX commands such as umask. However I have no experience using umask and I understand it make global changes to your system. I would avoid using it.
    You also could setup a crontab rule that changes the permissions on the shared folder every minute. In your terminal use the following commands
    sudo nano /etc/crontab
    You will then see
    using your arrow key move the cursor down to area indicated in my example then enter the following information
    */1 <press tab twice> * <tab> * <tab> * <tab> * <tab> root <tab> chmod -R 777 /shared
    it should look like the following
    replace "/share" with the actual path to your sharedfolder
    Then close the file with "control +O", then "return" then "control X"
    Now any file that is saved to your share folder will be readwrite to everyone every minute. This is a clumsy method but it works.

  • I have an external hardrive for MAC, I needed to save something from my work computer so I can pass it on to my MAC, it requiered me to re-format my external HD and now when I connected to my MAC I only have "read only rights". How do I fix it?

    I have an external hardrive for MAC, I needed to save something from my work computer so I can pass it on to my MAC, it requiered me to re-format my external HD and now when I connected to my MAC I only have "read only rights". How do I fix it? I run my Itnues from this external and now my library is gone. Luckily I have it saved somewhere else, which is not a problem, but I won't be able to write to this HD for right now. I can't see an option to give those permission back.

    Unless what you have to transfer is enormous, skip the external HD altogether and use a USB flash drive; you can get them with capacities to 128GB. Format the flash drive as FAT32 or ExFAT as LowLuster suggests so it can be read and written to on both PC's and your Mac.

  • "Device Manager is running in read-only mode because you are running it on a remote computer" when local

    Hello - since configuring a Windows Web Server 2008 R2 x64 to be hardened for an internet-facing deployment I receive this:
    "Device Manager is running in read-only mode because you are running it on a remote computer."
    when entering Device Manager.
    I have tried reversing the changes I have made, such as:
    - Re-adding Client for Microsoft Networks
    - Re-enabling NetBIOS over TCP-IP
    - Re-adding File and Printer Sharing
    - Disabling the Windows Firewall in all profiles (public, domain, private)
    I get no joy. It looks like a Microsoft ballsup. I'll try and use Process Monitor to have a look. Google returns only 1 page for this error.
    Luke

    Got it.
    After my changes to DHCP and static IPs the machine picked up the IP address of another server on my little home LAN. The hostname in IPCONFIG was different to the actual server computer name and so this led Device Manager to think the connection and the
    local machine were different.
    What an odd and infuriating problem. My thoughts on this are that Microsoft should be more verbose with error messages and their causes. For example, displaying the values of the assertion would help diagnose a problem; "The host-name www02.farm.brand.com
    that you are connecting from does not match the local host-name rest01.dev.farm.brand.com. Connections from remote computers can only use Device Manager in read-only mode; some options will be disabled."
    When troubleshooting, the main thing on an engineer's mind is "what has led Windows to its [unexpected] conclusion?"
