Image shakes and picture has to much blue effect when burned on DVD

I edited a 40 minutes movie with Final Cut Express with lots of different transitions. The results are great in Final Cut on my computer screen but when I burned it on a DVD and watched it on a TV screen the image is jumpy on every transitions and whenever the camera moves quickly. I also noticed that the image is to blueish (outside scenes) Colors were perfect when I worked on it in Final Cut.
I have Quicktime version 7.0.1 and an iMAC G5 and burned the DVD using Toast
Anyone has had this problem?
iMAC G5   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  
iMAC G5   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

Yesterday I made a DVD of an 8 minute video. It took 28 minutes to process and burn, so your 3 hours seems about right.
I used iDVD at the Best Quality setting. If you use the Best Performance setting it will encode much faster though there may be a microscopic reduction in quality which you would probably never notice.
I exported my FCE timeline to QuickTime Movie and de-selected the "Make Movie Self-Contained" option.
My DVD contained transitions which played back flawlessly.

  • Blue Screen when burning a DVD

    When I try to burn a DVD the systems crash with a blue screen when "compiling media" is at 95%. Windows returns a post error "PX Engine has stopped working properly". I have followed all steps in both pages http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415318?tstart=30 and http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-burning.htm l. The PX Engine is installed by Premiere and I also tried to install an update of PX Engine as instructed by Microsoft Help. Any help? I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit SP1 on Dell XPS (Intel i7, 8 GB RAM, 250+ GB free hd space).

    A BSOD is a very serious matter. It is most often caused by hardware, or low-leve drivers interfacing with the OS. This ARTICLE goes into much more detail. It also provides links to tools, that might be very helpful.
    I would start looking for:
    Heat (DVD burning, like Rendering and Export, is very intensive)
    RAM (DVD burning might well be using RAM that sits unused by most other operations)
    PSU (DVD burning requires more power, as the HDD's and multi-drive are all very active)
    Good luck,

  • Printing pictures with too much blue color

    My HP Photosmart C5180 is printing my pictures with to much blue ink so that the outcome is not looking as it is supposed to. What causes this issue?

    Hello Dikte,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the quality of the colour prints.
    I do have a few suggestions that we can try.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    I have also located two document that deal with this sort of issue.  The first link is for when the Colors Bleed into Each Other. 
    The second link deals with when the Printed Colors Are Not the Colors Expected. 
    If you have any other questions, please feel free to write me back.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

  • Images in Bridge have suddenly become much brighter than when I call them into Photoshop CS6.

    Images in Bridge have suddenly become much brighter then when I call them into Photoshop CS6. My monitor is calbrated.

    First go the Bridge / Camera Raw preferences.
    Inhere under 'default image settings' are 4 options to put a checkmark in front.
    If there is a checkmark in front of "apply auto tone adjustments' deselect it and try again.
    Otherwise select one problem file and with right mouse click menu choose 'purge cache for selection'. If this works then go to menu tools / cache/ purge cache for folder.
    If still in trouble could you provide more details about versions and OS and preferable a screenshot to clarify the problem more?

  • I have restored my iPod classic and everything has been wiped off, now when I connect it to the laptop, iTunes doesn't recognise it and windows won't format it, an error message comes up "unable to format"

    I have restored my iPod classic and everything has been wiped off, now when I connect it to the laptop, iTunes doesn't recognise it and windows won't format it, an error message comes up "unable to format". Can someone please help me sort this problem, it's so frustrating!!!!!!

    It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

    Trash your preferences. Trash your project render files. Switch off background rendering. Do not render. Export.

  • Loss of text and part of pictures when burned on DVD

    I have made a documentation and transferred it to DVD. When watching the DVDs I find that the pictures are cropped. Most of the time it does not matter, it matters however, when part of the text or important parts of pictures are missing. And this is very annoying as I have spent a lot of time in creating this documentation.
    When watching the project on the computer or via AppleTV everything is fine.
    Is there a way of finding out or calculating how much will be lost prior to burning the DVD or while making the project in iMovie?
    An answer and hopefully a solution to this is much appreciated.

    Oh vad det är svårt att vara tillräckligt tydlig. Men jag lär mig. Det är min oförmåga att begripa!
    This let me assume that all was OK in iMovie.      YES
    So You do a 16x9 project
    • What version of iMovie do You use ?        iMovie '11  9.0.4 (1634)
    • Did You set up iDVD as a 16x9 project    YES
    • the 16x9 size has to be set at two places in iDVD    Have done that
    first when starting a brand new project
    then under Project/Project info [Shift+cmd+I] - here too set 16x9
    So if You can describe from what Camera was used (Video Codec) to the final DVD - step by step - we can see where the work flow differs.
    Camera: LUMIX TZ7
    Download material to iPhoto and/or iMovie - rework the pics in iPhoto but also in Adobe photoshop. It is usually the pics I have reworked in Adobe photoshop that are cut.
    Then I start a new project in iMovie and add the pics and videos. When I have pics which I do not want to be cropped or with Ken Burns effect I use the setting "fit the frame" (mine is in German and says "anpassen").
    I do not share to iDVD, but finalize the project in iMovie, which - after many hours - provides all sizes.
    Then I open a new project in iDVD in 16:9 and insert the rendered film which is then available in medium, large, 720p and 1080p. I chose the 1080p.
    Then I make an Image Copy and burn the DVD.

  • HT1583 When burning a DVD of photos and music from iDVD, the photos blur right before the transitions and the music has about 5 second glitches here and there before the music starts again. Is there any way to burn the DVD without this happening?

    Each year I am in charge of making a slideshow of photos and music for my annual company meeting. I always use iDVD to set up my photos and music and then burn the DVD to play at the meeting. Every time I burn the DVD, it blurs right before the transition of the photo. It has always done this and I'm not sure why. It will also make the music glitch in a few spots for about 5 seconds or more. If I burn another DVD to try it again, the glitches will still be there, but in different spots. I've tried the highest quality of DVD's possible and this still happens. What can I do to fix this problem?

    Try disabling transitions altogether!
    There is a technical reason that this breakup happens - it is to do with how slideshows can be saved within the DVD specification, they can either be recorded as 'video streams' or as a collection of 'still images'.
    When you add transitions iDVD has no option but to use a video stream, this can result in terrible 'breakup' because the mpeg 2 encoder isn't designed to handle scenes that are static with a sudden short change. You can see 'artefacts' in the video stream…
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_artifact
    'Still image slideshows' avoid the issue altogether by only showing a static image, no video compression is used & because the scene doesn't transition so it shouldn't breakup.
    NOTE: Music on the slideshow is irrelevant, both types can use a soundtrack.
    I cannot remember if it is possible to force iDVD to only make still image slideshows, I always use DVD Studio Pro to correctly setup DVD's. I'd suggest you use the option to save the DVD to a disk image & then open that disk image so that DVD Player can preview it, that should save on the number of test disks you burn.
    If you cannot make it avoid using video streams you may be ether off making your own video slideshow in iMovie & then import that into iDVD. It may eventually look better despite being a video stream!
    iDVD isn't really condusive to professional levels of control.

  • Sub Picture Problems HD project to SD build/burn for DVD Menu

    Encore CS5 on OSX
    Created a project for HD Blu-Ray that has sub pictures for buttons that work wonderfully when built and burned on Blu-ray, but when I use the same project and build and burn to SD DVD, the sub pictures are visible as horizontal lines with no chroma.  This issue is prevelent in stand alone players, both blu-ray and DVD, but when played in the computer DVD player they are fine.  Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thx

    Thanks, yes I kept the same HD menus and output to DVD. 
    >>> Bill Hunt <[email protected]> 06/09/10 5:38 PM >>>
    Welcome to the forum.
    Did you keep the same HD Menus, and just Output to DVD, or did you alter your Menus for the SD Project?
    Can you post a screen-cap of your Menu in PS, with the Layers Palette open, so that we can see the look of the Sub-picture Highlights?
    Good luck,

  • [nForce] no audio on disk or image when burning a dvd movie

    i've recently bought a K7N2 Delta I lsr and since i've had this i have never been able to burn a dvd movie no matter what i try. I've started from scratch trying with just the AC-97 audio drivers installed and downloaded the latest nforce audio drivers from nvida website, nomatter what i do i cant get a movie on disk correctly. When i build an image on my harddrive, i play it and theres no audio and when i build a dvd disk either the audio wont play or the entire disk wont play. my dvd player either says disk cannot be played or the disk is dirty. But when i import the image or disk into dvd shrink the film plays fine with audio. I'm at a total loss. i dont think that my processor has anything to do with it but i have an AMD Athlon 3200+ and 512meg 3200 Geil ram. If anybody has any ideas or better still a solution i would greatly appreciate a reply.. Thankx for your reply in advance...   

    Hello SON!
    Recently bought, you say. Does that mean you have installed all mobo drivers, repair installed Windows, etc?
    Have you tried the disks in another system?
    Do you use the same software for playing and recording?
    I don't think this is it, I think it is a software/driver problem, but two quick ones:
    Untic in Device Manager for the optical device "Recognise insertion", as that can ruin a burn.
    Remove the audio cable if you got one between the optical device and the sound card.

  • Has anyone had the iMac erase all files in a folder when burning a dvd of some of the file.  All that remain are the files that I burned.

    I had a folder that contained picture, both raw and jpgs from a trip that I had taken.  I wanted to burn a dvd of the folder that had 9 subfolders in it.  I got a message that it was too large.  I told it what directory I wanted and it created the dvd.  I when to get some additional files and all of my pictures, under each of the subfolders are gone.  The only thing that is under the subfolders is the directory that I burned to dvd.  Has anyone else had this problem?  If so were you able to recover the pictures?  I do have the backed up but am currently out of town and will not be back for a month.
    Thanks
    Mike Booher

    First Welcome to the Discussions.
    Depending on the Burning Software are you using. IF you drag the folder with the sub folders in the original folder if it is to large it will not burn it.
    Your best option is to seperate the Original Folder in 1/2 and then try to burn it on 2 seperate DVD's this way you would meet the size critera for the software.
    If you had good burning Software and were able to use dual layer it probably would have burned the entire folder and it would have fit.
    If you continue to have issues after I have explained it to you come back and someone will help you.
    Just remember that Apples burning Software is entry level and doesn't  have the functions of the top of the line in burning Software, Like Roxio, or DVD FAB, these 2 give you so many more options.
    Cheers

  • Loss of Colour balance and brightness when burning to  DVD

    Hi new to Mac and having problems with photos and video that is fine when viewed in iphotos/ivideo/idvd etc or even when printed from or viewed on a PC. All looks great when assembled but as soon as the project is burned to DVD and played on a standalone player, images seem very red and dark. has anybody experienced the same ? do i need to overcompensate /adjust balance before assembling and burning a project. Any ideas would be very helpful.

    John, I saw a reply you posted in July to a similar question on the
    Premiere Elements forrum, which is good because I think I will have some
    extra work to do on this project.
    The MPG files originally came from material I originally edited in
    Premiere Elements on a MacBook Pro. The source material was AVI files from
    a miniDV camcorder. I shot multiple cameras on several nights of a
    theatrical production. With the volume of footage and a lack of computing
    horse-power, I decided to make shorter segments based on the scenes within
    the play. I know this was far from an optimal work-flow (mea culpa) but
    that is the reality I face. So now I am looking for the best way forward.
    Short of re-editing the whole thing (now that I have CS5.5 on a PC), which
    is out of the question, it sounds like my best option is to go back to the
    Mac and export the individual scenes as something other than MPG's. I
    assume that in Premiere Elements 9, I need to select "Share with
    Computer", then NTSC-Widescreen, and then go to the Advanced menu. Should
    I then ramp the quality up to maximum? Are there other settings I need to
    adjust to maximize the output quality?
    At this point, I do not care about the size of the output files, nor do I
    care if each 10 minute scene requires all night to render. I just would
    like to get better quality clips that I can then use in CS5.5 on my PC to
    assemble the full show, added chapter titles, and then print to DVD using
    Encore. Any advice you can offer would be most welcome.

  • My iMovie project has sound, but no sound when burned in iDVD

    I created a movie in iMovie then burned the disc in iDVD. The sound is good when I play the project in iMovie, but after I burned the disc in iDVD I cannot hear any sound. What should I do?
    THanks

    The following info was obtained from the Apple knowledge base:
    Delete encoded assets from the project.
    Burn another disc or Save as Disc Image, mount the image and test in DVD Player and then burn your DVD with Disk Utility.
    This issue can also occur if third-party (non-Apple) QuickTime plug-ins are installed. If the issue still occurs after trying the steps above, check for third-party plug-ins in ~/Library/QuickTime/ and /Library/QuickTime. Move these to the desktop, and then log out and log back in to the computer
