Template Text  Appears Reversed "Mirrored" After Burning

Greetings, I am using DVD Studio Pro 3.02 with Final cut 4.5
I have imported my Video asset with Markers created in Final cut, into DVD Studio, I drag the asset to the menu stage, and am asked to build a menu index I pick a template with the right amount of buttons, edit the text on the buttons for proper spelling an capitlization... Hit the preview button, all looks great... I burn a DVD, it pops out, pop it into a P.C. or apple and all the text is reveresed, backwords, DVD plays fine. What is up?
Sam

It is a known bug with an incompatible graphics card in some [older] Macs. If you change your preferences to 'software encoding' instead of 'hardware encoding' in DVD SP, the problem should go away.
Also have a search of previous threads for "backwards" et c. for more detail.

  • Text roll looks wierd after burned on to DVD

    I put credits on text roll and after rendered/compressed and burned onto
    DVD studio. It looks wierd. It's not plain white characters.

    Hi -
    Go to your sequence and click anywhere in the timeline and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see the Sequence Settings. Either report what those sequence settings are or take a screen shot and post the screen shot here.
    Also, please click on one of your source clips in the Final Cut Pro Browser to select it, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the Item Properties for the clip. Either report what the item properties are, or take a screen shot and post the screen shot here.
    When you were editing you sequence and seeing the slow motion in FCP, was your Canvas set to display at 100% size? Were you monitioring the sequence on an external monitor?
    Thanks

  • White text appears black/grey after export to PDF - but only on a PC!

    I use Pages to make flyers in A4-format. But 8 out of 10 times I make one, convert it to PDF and send it to my boss via Mail, I get a reply where he says that everything looks good but the text.
    I have a colored background or image with white text on top in its own layer.
    This problem has been tauting me for several weeks now, and I thought I had the soloution recently when I started to make sure that the text layer where brought to the front (top layer). But still i get the message back that the text is either black or dark grey and can´t be read on his PC. It looks fine on my Mac, but not on his XP/Vista computer.
    - I usually convert using the "Better" compression mode.
    - I tried to convert it using Print - Print to PDF but the problem persists.
    - I have deleted the plist-file as well. Same problem.
    But since this doesnt happen with all my flyers, I am beginning to think that there is something I am doing "wrong" while making the flyer or that there is some kind of "rule" that I dont know about. Or is it an unstable PDF-export algorithm?
    Can anybody help me please?

  • Button Rollovers not Appearing after burning

    Hello,
    Need some help. I created a DVDSP project with multiple menus and multiple tracks. Everything has been connected correctly, along with using a standard Overlay (white when you rollover, yellow when you select). All end jumps are fine, in fact in Simulator, it's picture perfect.
    The problem is when I burn the DVD and test, I cannot see where my activate button is. I cannot see either on a Mac in DVD Player or in a stand alone DVD Player.
    Is there a setting I'm missing to make the tracks (buttons) viewable in each Menu?
    For example, Menu 2 has 6 tracks. When I select Menu 2, there is no white box to tell me where I am.
    In Simulator it's a snap, work perfectly. After burning it's guess where you are...
    Please help!
    Thanks
    Dan

    OK - so you have the background as m2v - that's fine. Did you remember to create an overlay file? It is this that will give colour to the rollovers...
    A dash, underline, arrowhead, dot, splodge or whatever is normal to see on menus as buttons are selected. These shapes are in the overlay (actually a part of the subpicture stream) and are shown when the button is selected. At all other times they are transparent. In your case, if you don't want an underline, you need to copy the text in the background footage into an overlay file.
    An overlay is simply a still image (usually a pict, not JPG - they are not good to use) which is the same size as your video format (720x480, etc) It is mostly white and only has the shapes that you wish to appear as the rollover - in your case some text. You can either do it in grayscale or use colour - the colours get 'mapped' in DVDSP and for ease, use grayscale.
    To line up the words you want, take a still form the background movie and use this as a guide in photoshop. Hide that layer when exporting your pict file.
    When you import into DVDSP and add it to your menu you will then be able to colour the text as you roll over it. Without an overlay file you are left using the built in text tools, and yes, they can look very blocky. IMO, by far the best look is achieved when you don't use text as he highlight, but use some other shape instead, usually alongside the text somehow. It's a personal preference, and I'm sure you've got ideas of your own!

    Hi,
    Do you know the answer to this?
    My Arabic text is appearing correctly

    Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    This only happens on Win NT but not Win

  • Text appears twice after exporting

    On a video that I am working on there is a section with some scrolling text. It appears fine in FCE but after I export it with quicktime conversion it seems to appear with a ghost image right after it. All of the text appears twice and the second one is quite a bit fainter.
    Is it a problem with my conversion settings?
    Thanks for any help.

    I thought that somebody would at least know if it was possible to create a problem like this by setting something wrong in the conversion settings. Or that they would know the specific setting that would cause it. In which case they could just tell me what that specific setting was and there would be no need for me to type all of them out.

  • After burning a audio CD, the Create LightScribe Label window does not show

    I found burning a LightScribe label after burning with iTunes directions. It says that iTunes works with Sonic Express Labeler. After burning the CD, a Create LightScribe Label window is supposed to appear. It does not. Why? Help!!
    HP Pavilion a1220n   Windows XP  
    HP Pavilion a1220n   Windows XP  

    No one answered his question. On HP it says:
    Creating a LightScribe label with iTunes
    iTunes works with Sonic Express Labeler to conveniently burn labels on a data CD or audio CD from iTunes. The playlist you create in iTunes to burn a disc is automatically imported into Express Labeler so that this information is available for you to use on your LightScribe label.
    NOTE: To use Express Labeler from iTunes, the data or music tracks in the playlist your are using must fit on a single CD.
    Click Start, All Programs, iTunes, and then click iTunes again.
    Burn a data or audio CD with iTunes. When the burning process is complete, click Yes on the Create LightScribe Label window.
    Make sure that Disc Label is selected in Step 1: Select Project.
    Select a label template by clicking the left or right arrows next to Layout and choosing a layout.
    NOTE: The various layouts show different amounts of playlist information. Some show only the playlist title, others show the playlist title and track names. You can edit the playlist information by clicking Disc Title to open the Edit Disc Title window.
    Click Tracks to display the Edit Tracks window. Click New to display the Track window. Enter text to identify the first track or file (you can optionally enter artist and date, or length), and then click OK.
    Repeat step 5 for each track or file on the disc.
    Click the left or right arrows next to Background to select design elements for the disc. The selections you make are previewed in the disc window.
    NOTE: If you use a color image, LightScribe burns it as a greyscale (monochrome) image.
    When you are satisfied with the appearance of your label design, insert the LightScribe disc (label-side down) into the disc drive tray and then click Print.
    From the Disc Label menu, select LightScribe 12cm Disc.
    Select a Contrast Level and then click OK to begin burning the label. The estimated time to complete the label is displayed, along with a progress bar. You can continue to work on your PC while LightScribe is burning the label.
    NOTE: A sudden bump or vibration of the computer during the labeling process may affect the quality of the label.
    His question is why this does not happen. What version of iTunes are you using? Is an upgrade to the newest version needed? I woul dlik eto hear form others who use lightscribe with itunes and how they do it.

  • After burning cd from iTunes the end tracks distort

    after burning cd from iTunes 11.04 the end tracks distort upon playback

    Ed,
    I tried burning the files that distort (from Itunes) using toast on my G5 instead of my powerbook pro and still the distortion. Is it possible that itunes corrupted all my files when I upgraded?
    Art,  there is nothing about an iTunes upgrade that would modify the song files in any way, but stranger things have happened.  If the same effect is occurring on a different computer, there is something suspicious.
    Make a new playlist with the same tracks in reverse order and burn it.  Does the distortion appear on the same tracks in their new position?  Or does it move to the tracks that are now the higher numbers?

  • Problem: DVD won't loop after burning in iDVD '08

    I need help.
    I made a slideshow in Keynote '08 and sent it directly to iDVD (iLife'08) for burning. I wanted to burn it to DVD and have it show continuously (loop) at a kiosk.
    I selected the presentation and had set iDVD (Advance Menu) to "Loop". The loop icon showed up on the "map menu" for the selected presentation.
    As I read in other forums, I also set the "button" for Play Movie with a TRANSITION.
    After burning and playing it on two DVD players, the DVD won't automatically loop. It just freezes after it completes one play.
    I also did the "REPEAT" button on the DVD Player Remote and still won't loop.
    I went back to iDVD and removed the Loop option and burned DVD. I was hoping that I can play it back with just setting the DVD player itself to REPEAT disc. Again, the DVD won't repeat or loop.
    I also converted the keynote presentation to quicktime first then moved it to iDVD for conversion and burning to DVD. The results are the same above.
    I need to know if there is a step I am missing or a procedure not followed properly.
    Thanks in advance!

    Check these instructions from iDVD Help to see if you missed anything.
    +_Here are ways to turn looping on or off_:+
    +Double-click a slideshow button on the DVD menu to open the slideshow editor. Click the Settings button and select the “Loop slideshow” checkbox.+
    +Select a slideshow icon in map view, and then press Command-I to open the Slideshow Info window. Select the “Loop Slideshow” checkbox, and then close the window.+
    +Click a movie or slideshow button on the DVD menu, or a movie, slideshow, or autoplay movie icon in map view, to select it, and then choose Advanced > Loop Movie or Loop Slideshow.+
    +When looping is turned on, a checkmark appears next to the command in the menu. To turn off looping, select it again to remove the checkmark.+
    +To turn looping off for a background movie on a menu, open the Menu Info window. With your pointer over the menu (but with no buttons or text items selected), press Command-I. Move the Loop Duration slider to zero.+
    If you have followed these directions and are still having the same problem, give this basic remedy a try. Quit iDVD and delete your iDVD preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.idvd.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iDVD; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
    Do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
    If the problem persists, do the following for troubleshooting purposes. While working on your project in iDVD, create a disk image. Go to File>Save as disk image. This will create a file that can be viewed on your computer's DVD player. You will be able to see just how your project will work when viewed on a regular DVD player. You will be able to catch errors and correct them before burning and possibly wasting a disk. If the disk image plays correctly, then you know that the encoding is being done correctly. This would point to problems with the burn process. If there are problems with the disk image, then the issue is with encoding.
    I hope this helps.

  • No Text Appears in Book (Preview and in Book)

    I just receive a Medium Soft Cover book from Apple and to my surprise there was no text present. I tried printing to pdf or previewing within iphoto and no text appears as well. My font sizes are all small. I even created a new book with a couple photos and used the default text - still no text in preview.
    Someone suggested ditching the preferences file for iphoto as well as the cache. My fear in doing that is that the whole iphoto library gets reset...is there another way?
    help?

    Go to your User/Library/Caches folder and look for a folder titled iPhoto. Drag it to the Trash. I will get recreated the next time iPhoto needs to create a cache file.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Text appearance in adobe acrobat (pro) files displays inconsistently unless you zoom in. Mainly 'i's and 'l's look bigger than they should.

    Text appearance in adobe acrobat (pro) files displays inconsistently unless you zoom in. Mainly 'i's and 'l's look bigger than they should.
    The pdfs print fine though.

    Try doing a spotlight search for all files that start with AdobeFnt. They will be named AdobefntXX.lst, with the XX being some number. They will be scattered across the drive... After making sure that all Adobe applications are closed, trash all the adobefntxx.lst files, those with the 3 letter extension .lst.
    Then, restart the system, and open the files in Acrobat again.
    Otherwise, what happens in Safe boot? (Remember, Safe boot loads only a default set of fonts.) If they display fine there, the problem most likely is a font issue, one of the fonts that Adobe installed.
    Check Adobe's web support page for troubleshooting Fonts.

  • Typing yields only "ding" and no text appears!!!

    This can't get any more basic!!!
    New document, typing on keyboard yields only ding sound and no text appears in the document!!!  ***????

    You probably have opened a blank Layout mode template which has no default text area.
    There are 2 kinds of templates, Word Processing templates which flow from page to page and which you can just type into, and Layout templates which require you to create text boxes to type into.
    See the sidebar in the Template Chooser to see which is which.

  • Pixelated images after burning

    A friend of mine is using iDVD to create a slideshow of some photos. The photos look great, and after burning, when playing on either tv's or even other computers, no matter the screen size, all the images, as well as the text that pops up, is all pixelated. But on her computer, they look fine.
    She is using RAW images, could this be the problem? She has tried burning for both Widescreen and Standard, with no fix.
    I told her to use jpegs, haven't heard back if that worked or not, but thought I'd ask.
    Thanks!
    Jordan

    You gave your friend excellent advice. Most Jpegs will work fine. If you wish to add RAW image files as well then I'd suggest doing so to the dvd-rom section of the dvd (and there is a preference you can select within iDvd that will automatically do this for you).
