Incorrect sound after burn

We have just bought Apple G5’s for our school, so students can video edit. So far there has been no problems. But lately a couple of machines have started burning another soundtrack onto the completed movie. The preview looks and sounds correct.
Several users use the same machines which I have read can be a problem, but as it is a school there is no way around this. I have looked for the /tmp/tempmovie file suggested in other posts and I cannot find the file if it is present?
Any other suggestions would be much appreciated, as the students need to complete this work soon so they can get a mark?
Thanks

Hi vaiman:
Try it again like this:
*In the Finder, choose 'Go to Folder...' from the Go menu.
*Enter /tmp and click OK.
*Find the file called tempmovie.mov and drag it to the trash.
*You'll be asked to enter your Mac's administrative password.
*Enter it and click OK.

Video clip sound after burning

I use Adobe Premiere Elements 10, and I recently made a music video. I put a soundtrack to it. I turned the video clip sound all the way off and just let the soundtrack play over it, like a music video. I then burned it to a disk and played it on my DVD player. When it was playing, I noticed that the video clip sound and the soundtrack were both playingand over lapping each other. I burned several disks after turning every other sound off but the soundtrack, and still the video clip was playing over it. Please give me advice on how to fix it, as it would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.
First, I would play the Timeline with the Audio Mixer Panel open, and watch for the Levels of the other Video Tracks. You can also use that to Mute other Audio Tracks.
One can also Alt-click on the Audio portion of the Clip, and just Delete that.
Now, did you place your music onto the Fixed Soundtrack Audio Track? Some users have experienced problems with the two Fixed Tracks, Soundtrack and Narration, and the normal "fix" is to just drag the music (or narration) to an empty, "regular" Audio Track.
Good luck,

No sound after burning

I've been searching this forum, and followed most, but still have this problem.
I'm attempting to burn a "purchased" playlist in Toast Lite. iTunes is set to audio cd . The disk is a Memorex CD-R. I drag the playlist to the Toast interface. All songs load and show they are now AIFF files. I hit the burn button and all goes well. Disk burns and says its finished. I eject and re-load for playback. Disk shows in itunes, with all songs present. But, alas when I hit Play, nothing! No sound. Seems I've tried every combination of burn, only to wast 5 or 6 CD's.
Thanks for any help... anyone?

Only iTunes can burn audio CDs from music purchased from the iTMS. Since you're not running Tiger, which adds much better support for third-party optical drives, your best bet might be to try Patchburn (a Google search will lead you to the right place) in order to get your drive recognized by iTunes.

Lost Sound after burning to iDVD

I have 53 minutes of marching bands that plays perfectly in iMovie. I chose the White Reflections theme in iDVD and the project works on the computer. After hours of transferring the DVD looks beautiful but there is no sound. The original sound is embedded in the HD formatted tape. I really need some suggestions since the Band Director is depending on this DVD.
Thanks

Hi PointeCap:
Welcome to discussions!
This is what Apple has to say regarding your problem:
iDVD 6: No audio on finished DVD
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303550
Might want to be sure you have all of the iLife apps updated- ( ie QuickTime, iMovie, iDVD, etc.)

After burning CD, won't play

After burning a CD on my Emac, it will not play on another device. I receive the "ding" letting me know that it burned OK. Am I missing a step after the "ding"? Am I burning incorrectly? Thanks for any help you can give.

awsmith,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Can you provide a little more information? What kind of file(s) did you burn, and on what device are you trying to play the CD? Does the other device recognize the CD and fail to open the files, or is the CD not seen at all?
You may also want to try another blank CD, especially one from a different spindle or package of discs. Blank CDs can degrade over time, especially in less-than-ideal strorage conditions (see the NIST document Care and Handling of CDs and DVDs), and some brands and batches of blank discs are markedly less quality than others (while written in terms of DVD discs, the manufacturer rankings in Blank DVD Media Quality Guide are useful).

Poor audio after burning

Hi there,
Hope someone can help me with this...
I have made a SD DVD by converting my uncompressed quicktime files through compressor to gain MPEG2 video files and AC3 audio files.
Everything looks and sounds great when I simulate everything, but after burning the audio sounds really clunky. The fades in and out don't work at all and it really doesn't sound good at all.
In the compressor settings I put normalisation off (to -31) so not sure why this is happening, especially as all seems to be working fine when everything is simulated...
Could anyone offer any suggestions to fix?
Thanks
Matty

Take a look here
http://dvdstepbystep.com/compressor.mov
and in the second half there are settings. Make sure Preprocessing is set to "None" as in the first image below. The other settings usually also help prevent glitches, audio rate (160/192 etc) can change a needed. Also, how were you listening to the audio? Computer? Television? (I have one tv that is bad for audio)

Unsupported format after burning on DVD Player

I burn many discs on iDVD and always do it the same way - I have found that a few of the discs are unable to be read on my player after burning. So some work fine and some cannot be read in the Player. I get the message "Unsupported Format" on my player. Any suggestions?

If iDVD didn't have sound before you authored the DVD, you won't have sound after the DVD is created. Did you create a self contained Quicktime movie out of your editing system before importing into iDVD? Did the Quicktime file have sound in the Quicktime Player? Here's an article I wrote about transferring your HD footage to DVD. You need to break the process up into steps to avoid problems.

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. Starting on a new computer now. I can get my music from old computer?

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?

WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

Got it! Thanx. What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

No sound after upgrading to Windows 7 M55-S3293

I upgraded to Windows 7 and installed the drivers from Toshiba for my sound card and before installing checked the windows XP box under the compatibility tab. No sound. I did windows update for this driver and it installed an updated driver. No sound. I went to Realtek and installed the windows 7 generic driver for this sound card (thats all manufacturer's offer is a generic driver) and LOW sound. Now I rebooted and back to No sound.
Before windows 7 sound, after no sound.
Toshiba put out a fix for a contextant audio driver for the low sound problem to be corrected with windows 7 but I cannot find anything for my computer.
I don't know know what to do! I don't want to go back to using XP but sound is REALLY important. I would think this is an integrated sound card (Toshiba isn't making service manuals public anymore, it was there the other day and gone today) so I cannot remove it. I don't think I have any available PCI slots to install a new one internally and I don't want extrenal speakers since I do a lot of traveling.
Is there a fix I don't know about? What can I do? Please HELP!!!

Hi Ryan,
Go here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/downloadDetail.jsp?soid=1671893&pf=true
and download the software called "Sound Utility to Turn Mute Off After Upgrading to Vista", it is made for people that upgrade to VISTA, however, once you have all your Toshiba updates installed by downloading the Toshiba updates, then apply this update to your Windows7 system and the problem will resolve.
I don't know why they did not make this update part of the Toshiba Update Package.
I hope this helps,
best,
Alejandro

After burning a successful DVD in iDVD out of FCPX, how can I see the settings it used?
So I finally burned a DVD out of a Apple Pro Res file into iDVD in PAL format. My question now is how can I find out what the exact burn properties were so that I can apply the same burn properties to a project in Compressor 4?
Is it possible to see what iDVD did?

I don't know any way you can interrogate iDVD to reveal settings to the extent that you can in a Compressor project. What you could do is open up the show's VOB in MPEG STreamclip, go to File and Reveal Stream Information; that will at least give you some rudimentary info like average bit rate. Perhaps someone, with more iDVD experience, can chime in here.
The broader question is why use Compressor at all if your current workflow is doing the job to your satisfaction?
The value of Compressor is that it gives you control over the many parameters that affect size quality. and playability. The Compressor presets can give you a starting point for DVD delivery, Web, etc. From those presets, people typically experiment by adjusting the parameters until they get the desired results for their specific show. It's a little bit science and a little bit art. After experimenting, you may be able to get slightly better quality for the project you've successfully burned in iDVD by using Compressor and something likeToast…or maybe not.
Good luck.

After burning to dvd, using idvd, movie stops on frame but audio continues

After creating imovie which works perfectly, and also after trasferring to idvd works perfectly, i have problems when playing back dvd after burning to disc. The movie stops but the audio continues. I altered the clip but same thing happened in next clip after next burn. I don't think its a corrupt clip, but maybe something to do with WHEN it occurs in the movie. Any suggestions? After 4 goes and many hours burning I am stumped!

Hi Tomma1
And welcome to apple discussions. It's good you chose to use 16 bit audio for all of your source material. And assuming this is accurate info .... From what I can tell, you are doing nearly everything correctly. However let me ask you a few questions.
1. Are you using the boot volume (the hard drive where iDvd and Leopard are actually located) to encode your dvd (yes/no)?
2. More importantly, does the disc image also go out of sync when played thru apple's dvd player app? or does it only happen on the burned dvd-r?
3. Are you using Verbatim Dvd-R or an alternate brand? if it's the latter, then for troubleshooting purposes while on this forum; please use Verbatim Dvd-R. (it helps us eliminate additional / possible variables). Thereafter feel free to use the media that works best for you and your mac.
4. Have you tried an alternate encoding setting other than pro quality setting? and do you get the same results?
