Using DVDSP for Mass Replication for Retail/Rental

We're about to ramp up domestic distribution for our indie feature film, and the movie will be going into the standard rental and retail channels here in the US. We want to use DVDSP for authoring the DVD, with a couple subtitle tracks, a couple audio channels, some bonus features and the movie (with chapters).
While it sounds pretty straightforward, I've heard various complaints that DVDSP is not up to spec and could possibly have problems with some consumer DVD players.
So, I have a couple of questions:
1. Has anyone used DVDSP to author a rental/retail DVD? How did that go?
2. Are there any steps or precautions to take to make sure the DVD is compatible with all DVD players? 16x9 vs 4x3 menus, transitions, encoding, chapters, etc?
Thanks,
Russ

Yes, fine other than human error and once in awhile a freaky machine

If you can get something like dvdafteredit to do some cleaning up, it is not a bad thing. Definately test the heck out of it before replication and make sure you have someone run tests, either the plant or places like dvdverification.com (Trai) who will put things through the paces and run tests on the discs.
Encoding - take a look here for some general ideas (Note the DVD Bandwidth considerations in the faqs_3.php)

Make sure to set 16:9 tracks to 16:9 Letterbx, not any variation of Pan & Scan. Chapters should not present an issue, but make sure you do not put commands on them then forget you put them there.

  • How do I redeem or use credits for movie rentals?

    I am looking for instructions on how to use the two ITune credits on my account.  I would love to use the, to rent or buy a movie.  Please advise specially how to access them.  Thanks.

    The credits are not from a gift card.  They were applied to my account by a representative of Apple for complications experienced with another attempt to rent a movie.  However, although I can see that the credits are there, I can't find how to use them to rent or buy movies.  Help please.

  • Value Mapping - Mass replication

    Hi all,
    I have set a lot of Value Mapping groups using the JPR mass replication
    One of my context : http://sap.com/xi/XI/LanguageCodes
    I can see the cache content using RWB but is it normal I can't see it using Integration Directory ?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi Jean,
        From ID we can't see the other contexts except http://sap.com/xi/XI.U r saying valuemapping is not returning any values. The conversion for Source value is maintained in the list of values it would return the value other wise it would return as empty.For all the values you are unable to get the return values or for some of the values and remember if you test mapping then you didn't view the values.At runtime only you can able to view the values.
    /people/sukumar.natarajan/blog/2006/10/23/accessing-value-mapping-defined-in-directory-using-java-functions, Check this weblog and follow the UDF code, so that u will able to view what are the values does not maintain in the list of values.
    And once check the same from CacheMonitoring in RWB for that particular value for which value u r not getting the return value.
    Cheers

  • Anyone here using DVDSP to author Games ???

    I was approached by a few clients to produce a whole series of interactive DVD games. I own a Sonic creator and SD2000 encoder system...even though scripting in Sonic creator is fairly sophisticated, it is not enough to author highly interactive games. I freelance at a few post facility with the latest Sonic HD-DVD system with Scenarist. It's a very powerful system. I'm tempted to upgrade my Creator but it is a major and VERY expensive move. Is there anyone here using DVDSP to author highly interactive games for DVD or any other authoring app you have used that's up to par for this tak ???? Thanks.

    I'm using Creator 2.1.7, it's the last update before Sonic went with scenarist as their flagship. Beleive it or not, it's still running on OS9. It's a decent system, it has serve me well but it's definitely time to upgrade.
    I will meet with the company on Monday and i'll know more about the project, but just from reading the script they sent me, it seems very deep...lots of programming.
    I'm new to DVDSP..actually, i just got it this weekend. I was thinking of using it to author smaller projects and get another system for the high end and HD project. It's not an easy decision as what to get since the upgrade from Creator to Sonic HD and Scenarist is over 100K !!! ouch !
    Anyways, if anyone here has experience using DVDSP for authoring highly interactive games and-or using it for major titles, i love to hear some feedback. Thanks.

  • I can't find film on my Ipad that I paid for on rental. I am using iOS 8.1 which I just downloaded. I cant find a rental tab in my Video App

    I can't find film on my Ipad that I paid for on rental from ITune.  I am using iOS 8.1 which I just downloaded. I cant find a rental tab in my Video App

    Clear Safari, then force close Safari and finally reset your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    Now close Safari. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My macbook running Mavericks is slow.  I use it for recording and it is struggling. I am trying to avoid wiping my computer clean and reinstalling everything...

    Here is the etrecheck report.  Any suggestions of some other maintenance I can perform on my computer?  A mac tech did a system diagnostic and found nothing wrong with the hardware. I have already reinstalled Mavericks, so it seems like the next step is wiping the harddrive clean and starting over, but I want to avoid that if possible!  Can anybody help?

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

    Hello pichastos,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where your camera is displaying a black screen, please follow the information outlined below.
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping  (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

    ipod 5th generation will not turn on, charge, or connect to macbook laptop. i was using it for music then all of a sudden the screen went black and was unresponsive. i have tried using other cords. also my home button is broken. someone please help!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
