Photo's out order when burned to disc

Hi, my photo's are in numbered order in the library but when burned to disc are all random,
they have been edited from 3 cards and saved as a smart colllection, how can I get them
to burn in order as library shows them !! thanks steve

You use the Export Dialog by clicking on <Export> bottom - left in the Library Module. See Screen shot:
This will open the Export Dialog. The second section from the top is <File Naming>. Click on the small triangle, see screen shot:
And select <Edit> from the list.
This will bring up the <File name Editor> where you can specify various parameters for renaming. i would suggest that you add sequential numbers in front of the file name to preserve the order of images. In the screen shot below I have selected a sequential number that will go from 1 to 10000 plus the existing file name.
Then click <Done> and <OK> and export your images to a location of your choice.
Since you are a newbie to Lr it would be good if you would watch some of the video tutorials on Adobe's website. Lr is a complex program and without the tutorials you will make mistakes and get frustrated. The links for the video tutorials are on the main page of this forum, to the right where it says <getting Started with Lightroom 4>.
Go to this link http://tv.adobe.com/show/learn-lightroom-4/ and at the bottom you will find specific tutorials for exporting.

Photos change order when burning to disc

I have created a separate album of photos that I want to burn to a CD. When I do so, some of the photos change order. I have tried to delete those photos and then re-add them to the album, but to no avail. I have also tried to change their date so that they are chronologically in the right order, but this doesn't help either. Any help would be truly appreciated. I want to give this CD to my father for Christmas. Thanks!!

Hi Tom,
You should be able to make a slidshow almost as easy as what you're trying to do right now... it'll take some pratice
Personally, I have both exported a slideshow from iPhoto to iDVD and also created a slideshow directly in iDVD, the latter is a better fit for what you're doing.
Open iDVD, create new project, name as you like and save, will auto open to work window, click on 'customize', pick a theme you like. Now click on 'Map' and in the customize pane click on 'Media'. In the media pane you have itunes, photos and movie, select photos... you're iPhoto library will appear along with all the albums you might have created and organized. Here's what makes it sweet, you can drag each album into the 'Map' Theme icon and it will automatically import and turn into a slideshow and take on the name of the album... to see your progess hit the Preview button... you'll have to do a little learning and tweaking, you can add music etc., but that's it, you made a slide show ready to burn to a dvd...
My suggestions would be to organize albums as you like, named appropriately and just have fun with it. You can save and go back and edit at a later date. Use the highlight and delete or cut options to remove etc etc etc...
You can burn project using the File > Burn DVD option or you can save the FINAL production use the File > Save As Disk Image option, and you can burn the DVD through disk utility which will give you more options on burn speed and buring at 1x speed may yield the best results...

How do I keep photos in a particular order when burning to disc?

I made an Album in iPhoto5 of 200 photos from a recent trip. The photos in the Album don't follow the sequence I shot them. I want the photos to stay in the new order I've given them, and I'd like to include titles to help explain many of the pictures. When I put the photos into a folder in Finder to burn them, they go out of order. Can I asign sequential numbers to this Album and still retain the titles? How do I keep them in order??? Thanks

Error message when burning a disc of photos

I was trying to burn a disc of a large number of photos - around 400, and I got this error message: "The burn to the HL-DT-ST DVDRW GS23N drive failed. The disc drive didn’t respond properly and can’t recover or retry." I did a sample burn of about 5 or 6 photos and it worked fine, but this large project failed. I have a total of 1200 pictures I'm trying to burn. Any advice? Thanks for your help. I have spent hours trying to get this project done. It looks like it is in the "preparing to burn" stage for 10 or so minutes, then when it gets ready to burn, I get the failure message. Thanks again!

Take your choice:
Bad discs
Dust bunnies in drive blocking laser
Drive failing
Crashed/corrupt firmware controlling drive
Crashed system component
Try different brand of discs and/or slower burn speed

ITunes changes track order when burning discs

When burning a playlist to disc iTunes changes the track order. I want the disc to have the same track order as my playlist. How do I do that?

Jim VanLeeuwen wrote:
How your CD appears in iTunes depends on the column selections. In list view in iTunes, select the column to the left of the track names to see the CD track order. To see the actual order of the tracks on the CD, open the CD in Finder by double-clicking the CD on the desktop. The tracks will be preceded by a number corresponding to their order on the CD and that is the order they should play in your CD player. If you use the Finder's list view, your CD should reflect the order in the playlist you burned it from.
Play the CD in your CD player? Does the order match the original playlist?
Nope, when I put it in my car CD player the tracks are randomized. On the playlist I can put the tracks in the order that I wanted them in and when I burn them iTunes randomizes the order on the cd. I've burned it 4 more times and each time the tracks have been randomized. This is also with a cd that I bought from the ITS. So the playlist is in track order and I even checked the tags and the numbers are in the correct order.

Interlaced? (jagged lines) issue when burning a disc

I uploaded some standard definition DVD-R footage into my 2011 iMac (550gb). To get the DVD-R's vob footage into FCPX for editing, I first transferred the vob's to QT MOV's via MPEG Streamclip. I then imported it into FCPX as is (SD 640x480), then edited and completed my project without any issues or problems in FCPX.
My plan was to burn the finished project back to an standard definition DVD-R. I wanted to try it via four ways. 1) Burn the disc straight from FCPX. 2) Burn the project as an IMG to my hard drive and make the disc later. 3) Export the finished project as an H.264 QT MOV (at 640x480) and then burn the disc via Compressor. 4) Burn the H.264 MOV via Toast.
Here's the big problem: When it was time to either burn the project straight from FCPX to a DVD-R, or take my QT MOV of the same project and burn a disc via Compressor or Toast, the finished DVD-R, when played on a DVD player or in my Mac showed MAJOR interlacing issues (those jagged wiggly lines on people's bodies, especially during camera movement).
So what's strange is, the QT MOV files and the VOB files that I exported to my hard drive from FCPX (before actually making the disc) look and sound perfect. But when I try to burn the actual disc via FCPX, or Compressor, or Toast, the interlacing issues (jagged lines) appear every time. So it's obvious to me that there's something that the disc burning process, itself, doesn't like, or is having issues with. (I tried changing it Progressive and nothing gets rid of those jagged lines.
Any advice or help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

All what…including chaging field order and de-interlacong in Compressor?
Then it's probably not interlacing.
Post a screen shot of a frame before you imported into FCP and another sceen shot shot after exporting.
(Or is you'd prefer, upload a short section to Dropbox so we can see it and test it first hand.)
I used h.264 because there was no alternative.
I don't understand that; if you export as a master file, you should have a whole bunch of codec options.

PE 8 crashes when burning a disc

I have a new HP PC that meets all of the hardware requirements to run PE8. I have successfully developed one 20 minute video
with titles, transisitions and music. I recently used InstantMovie to develop a 2 minute video which includes both stills and video. I used a
song from ITUNES. The problem is I can not burn a disc. PE crashes while encoding media. Looks like it crashes at the same spot every time - 14% Into encoding media.   I tried un-installing and reinstalling PE8. and using a WMA music file instead of a song from Itunes. Nothing seems to work. Thanks for your help.

Good morning. I am thinking I may have had an "AH..HA" moment".
Yesterday I ripped a new music file that was a 48Khz WAV file using Audacity 1.3 Beta (unicode) and GSpot. Then used the "get media' function of PE8 to import in into my project and burn a disc. PE8 hangs at the 14% point no matter what I do.
Today, I deleted the WAV file completely from the project, the organizer and even emptied the trash can, then tried to burn a disc of just the project, without music. PE8 hangs at the 14% point just like before. Can I conclude from this experiment that the problem is not with the musc file, but there is something else going on instead?
Am I correct in locating the assets at the 14% mark. If the project is 3:13 minutes long...14% is acually 28% into the project
(3 * 60 + 12)*.28 = 53.76. So there may be a problem between the 53 and 54 second marker in the project.
I was going to try to select another music file that I have used successfully on a previous project. I realize this is an avoidance technique, but I am running out of options.
The song is from an album produced in 2002. I can't believe the security management for this album would be drastically different from other recordings I have used successfully.

How do you keep iPhotos in order when burning to a DVD?

I'm trying to back up some of my iPhoto albums on to DVDs. Specifically, I have 200 photos that I want to burn on to a DVD and give someone. I've tried Share-Burn but the result is a random assortment of the album's photos or, in another case, iPhotos are sorted by year. Do you have to make a slideshow or a movie to keep the iphotos in a sequence that one wants? I'm using iPhotot 11 on Mac OS X, version 10.6.7.

Here's one (of several) way(s) to do what you want:
Select the pics in the iPhoto Window
Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the Finder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.
Burn that Folder to Disk using the Finder.
Disk burned with the Share->Burn command are designd to be accessed via iPhoto, not the FInder.

Lose audio when burning to disc image.

Hey guys. I am losing my audio half way through my project when I play it on a dvd. My audio is there after I export to quicktime, but when I create the disc image through iDVD and burn through Roxio toast my audio is only there toward the first part of my project. The video portion is fine though. Any thoughts on this would be great .
Thanks,
D.T.

Burning a disc image and copying it to disc is the recommended workflow around here -- it is one more action that you have to initiate, but it provides greater control (set the burn speed down to 1x or 2x) and it is less demanding on your computer (fewer errors?).
Re the audio -- if the music was purchased from iTunes, you may be caught up in a problem that should have been resolved in iLife06. There's a workaround (burning a CD from iTunes and re-importing) but provide some more details on the audio.

CD boundary when burning 2-disc album

Hello!
I wonder if it's possible to make iTunes respect the disc numbers stored in track metadata, when burning a 2-disc album. It's annoying that iTunes seems to fit as many songs as possible on the first disc. The problem probably also accumulates further in the case of 3 or more discs. I would like each iTunes-made disc to have as many tracks as the original recording.
One solution is to make a separate play list containing only the songs on a particular disc of the multi-disc album, and then burn the playlist. However, I would like to make this automatic.

Strange, that option is working fine here. Has it worked before on the same computer? Have you installed new drivers, or do you need to? The troubleshooting steps here might help. iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install

How to get photos in order for burning to disc !

Hi, I am new to LR 3 , after downloading photo's from 3 CF cards from a wedding then editing I put chosen
best shots into a smart collection and all seemed in order numbers wise etc, when I burnt to a disc they are now not in order of the days event, how can I make sure they are of the following : -
1 - All the same size photo's ready to be printed or put in an album.
2 - How can I make sure the order in which I see them in the library smart collection is burnt in the
same order onto a disc, as I have burnt from library and they are all out of order of the wedding event
when looked at on the disc !!
Any help would be appreciated ,thanks westyboy1

You indicated that the images "seemed" to be in the right order. It might be a good idea to rename the images on export using a custom name/sequence. If you have done that and the images are still not in order, it's possible that your operating system browsing window is using a different sort order. I sometimes change windows explorer to sort by file type, and then files are sometimes in what seems be a strange order.
