Audio missing in burn of home movie using one stop

New app for me...but my daughter filmed my Mom's 90th BD and asked if I could make the DVDs.
I decided to use one-step in iDVD and her JVC cam. All went well video wise...but no sound came through, even tho every sound was playing.
This is my first stab to so I either goofed or haven't upgraded?? I still need to burn two more hours...it was an awesome party;-)
Thanks for any ideas.

Hi Teresa M.
Welcome to apple discussions. Let's see if we can get this resolved for you. Question/s: Did you connect the JVC Camcorder via FW to your mac? Was the the camcorder also set to 16 bit audio? One Step Dvd works great with firewire (or i.Link) connections. Which port /connection was used to connect to your mac? (to the best of my knowledge, can't use one step with USB 2 nor with 12 bit audio).
Also you want to make sure your JVC camcorder is listed here under apple's iMovie / supported camcorders. Is it?

  • Help!! I can't get my new macbook to print with my Dell 155w OR burn a home movie to DVD

    I cannot get my very recently purchased macbook pro to burn a home video to dvd OR connect to my dell 155w printer. I bought a macbook because it was so highly recomended. But I don't want to keep replacing things. I am so frustrated. I wanted a macbook because of its reputation. But I can't seem to figure out anything. I'm dissapointed and thinking I will just return it.

    Your problem may be able to be solved but take this from a Long time Windows user and current Mac owner. Macs are not easier to use. Mac break down just as often as PCs, percentage wise as to how many are sold/produced.
    They use the exact same hardware as Win PCs.
    The learning curve for OS X is greater then for Windows.
    Not sure of the age of your printer but it may not be supported in the newest Mac OS, Lion.
    We would need a little more info on how you are trying to connect TO the printer. USB cable or Wirelessly.
    As far as burning a Home Movie to DVD. Apple use to supply a program called iDVD for this but with the introduction of Lion OS they stopped supplying that program. You could try another burning program. Try Burn or you could buy something like Toast (Burn is free).
    Personally I would return your Macbook Pro and stick to what you know with a good PC notebook.
    Apple has a 14 day No Questions Asked return policy for Full refund. Take advantage of that policy.

  • How do I burn a home movie on my mac to dvd

    How do I burn a home movie that I put in itunes to a dvd

    You need burn software to do so. Do you have iLife 09 or 11 installed? If so, you have iDVD which is perfect. What app did you use to edit/put together the movie?
    If you don't have iDVD, then take a look at Roxio Toast ($$) or Burn (free) or google for other apps.
    FWIW, I've never parked a home made movie in iTunes, so I have no idea if there is anything you can do with it there. My guess is you need to get it into the burn software. And, if you still have an older version of iMovie, it may still have a burn option within.

  • IDVD is not on my system and I cannot download it from the App store.  How Do I burn my home movies to DVD?

    iDVD is not in my macBook pro and I need an iDVD or a good program to burn my home movies on DVD with menus. I cannot download iDVD or any other professional programs like DVD Studioor ... from App store. Please help me how do I burn my short films to DVD? Also please tell me any other free programs alternate it for burn DVD with putting menus.

    Hi
    iDVD is not or never been free !
    there are up-dates but still You need the original iDVD v. 7.x.x to use them.
    Best of program - not sold by Apple any more but on Amazon or e-bay in boxed versions of iLife 11
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • How do I burn my home movies to a DVD?

    I have a MacBook Pro which I purchased in June of 2012. I would like to put my home moives onto a DVD to mail to my relatives. (I don't want ot put them on You Tube.) How can I burn my home movies onto a DVD? I guess you could do this with iDVD in iMovie 11, but the MacBook Pro that I have does not have this feature under Share. What do I do?

    Personally, I use iMovie to edit my home movies, then I use Burn to burn it to a disk. Burn will automatically set the necessary files and everything for you too! Just drag and drop, and click burn.

  • I created my first movie using one long video (all photos) clip created in Keynote and imported to Imovie.  I added many music clips, some overlapping. I now want to lay down a new updated video clip, eliminate the original but retain the audio. Can I?

    I created my first movie using one long video (a montage of photos) clip created in Keynote and imported to Imovie.  I added many music clips, some overlapping. I now want to lay down a new updated video clip, eliminate the original video, but retain the audio. Can I?  And if so, how.  I cant seem to
    find the info anywhere in help.

    I would suggest that you go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that Advanced Tools are enabled.
    Then, you can drag your new video clip on top of your old clip and a popup menu should appear. Choose REPLACE.

  • HT1338 I would like to burn a home movie from imovie. How may I do this?

    I would like to burn a home movie from imovie. How may I do this? I have imported from a viedo camera  to imovie and cannot burn it to a blank dvd! ***?

    Buy iDVD.
    http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/idvd.html
    With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.
    IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.  (works with all Mac OS 10.5 and newer.)

  • Can I burn hd home movies to dvd in itunes after importing them into my itunes library

    Can I burn to dvd, HD home movies from a HD camera in itunes after importing them in my itunes library

    I don't have iTunes set to manage my music but if I move an item to the trash that is the file iTunes uses, it will still play in iTunes until I empty the trash.  Of course at that point it is permanently gone so if that was my keeper file then I have messed up.
    One overlying recommendation is to back up your computer before doing the editing.  If you make a mistake you can always go back and try again.

  • How do I burn my home movie to DVD?

    I just finished a 2 hour home movie in iMovie.  I have a MacBook Pro and iMovie.  I want to burn my movie to DVDs to give family members.  But I realize they didn't include iDVD.  What should I do?  Do I have to share and/or finalize the movie?  I just switched to a MAC this past summer. 

    There is no real substitute for iDVD.
    Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac?
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
    UPDATE & ADDENDUM:
    But even though you can still buy iLife 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
    Poster jhb21939 posted this in another thread:
    “when I attempted to load iDVD into a new iMac. A notice came up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March this year (2012).
    I contacted the Apple support team and eventually, I was told that the Licence had been withdrawn and could no longer be used.”
    In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
    In response, Old Toad posted this solution:
    “You can still use it one all of your Macs.  If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer.  After you're done reset the time back to the correct time.” He added this comment:
    “It began after iDVD and iWeb were discontued and they were dropped from the Apple Store. All I can think of is the certificate was set to expire after a certain time period after the intitial iLife disc was released.
    I've been able to use the installer even without setting back the date.  I just clicked on the Continue button and it would work as expected.  For some it would not continue unless the date was set back.”
    The latest anorexic iMacs just announced do not even include a CD drive! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of DVDs - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
    Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube?

  • Need to copy home movies using Insignia dvd/vhs recorder

    I have been attempting for 4 years now to copy my vhs home movies onto dvd.  I purchased an Insignia dvd/vhs recorder for this purpose.  I finally have been successful in recording the dvd where it will play back on the Insignia machine I copied it on but when I send copies to others or try to test the dvd in another player, it will not play the video.  I have tried several types of DVDs as I was told it matters.  I though the DVD-R was the correct one to use because it reads that it will play back in video players.  At least I can play these back on the recorder but I need them to be able to play for those others I have copied them for and for down the road when we the children no longer have this particular recorder.   The dvds finally play back on the recorder but not on my sons dvd player.  Everything I have read says dvds must be finalized but when I go to menu and then dvd, the menu will not let me arrow up to the finalize part.  What can I do?  This is so frustrating and I feel an urgency to get these home movies onto dvd.

    Your DVDs do need to be finalized in order to be viewable on other players. 
    Suggest you sit down with the manual for your unit and read it.  It should tell you, step by step, how to record and finalize the disc.

  • Compress dvd home movie into one vob?

    I have created a home movie in imovie and then transferred it back to my camcorder and burned it onto a dvd. There are 5 vob files containing the entire movie. Is there any software to "join" all of the parts to upload to the internet?

    sure, a vob for the menu, a vob for the autostart (even when empty), a vob for the first 20min of project..
    vobs are part of the videoDVD standard, a delivery file .. no 'format' for further processing.
    plus, any re-and-back-and-forth-conversion doesn't add any quality to your video, these formats are all lossy.
    upload your iMovie (in case you use iM08/09, this is just a click away, Share).
    or, export from within iM (vers. 6,5,4,...) in needed resolution... upload that.
    but converting backwards from DVD?? is .. sorry .. nonsense.
    esp. when it is a iMovie project AND the video exist on tape!
    import tape - upload.
    ahh, and welcome ladybug 1969 to the  boards ..

  • Transferring home movies from one computer to another

    What is the best way to do this? I have about 500 video clips that I want to move from one computer to another. I've tried using the export function in iPhoto but all I get upon transfer is a single frame of the movie. I keep the files on an external HD but I can't find where they are stored. I see the iPhoto app to open but not the original files. Additionally, whenever I do locate these files, how can I get them transferred with the keywords assigned to them? TIA! Going from a MBP running 10.6.8 to a MBA running 10.8.2

    I'm not sure you can assign keywords to a movie on export, as these are written to the exif metadata of a photo and most video has no such metadata.
    You say you've tried the export function in iPhoto, but what settings have you used? Exporting with the Kind set to Original should yield the videos.

  • Burning 2 quicktime movies onto one DVD using iDVD

    I wonder if you could help me.
    I have 2 Quick time movies - created in FCP - one hour and 10 mins each . Is it possible to put both on one DVD using iDVD? (one is the front view and other side view of a performance).
    I have version 5.0.2 iDVD and am burning on desktop G5
    Both movies have chapter markers (created already in FCP)
    Is it possible to do this and how do I do it using the right menu and proper theme etc- and right method of importing or loading the movies.
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks

    Hello Nan,
    a Single Layer DVD can hold a maximum of 120 min of video (incl. menus), so either you burn 2 SL DVDs or try to put both movies on a Double Layer DVD, provided you have a burner capable of writing DL DVD.
    how do I do it using the right menu and proper theme etc- and right method of importing or loading the movies.
    I suggest you have a look at this tutorial by Ken Stone: Authoring with iDVD 5

  • Audio missing on burned DVD

    Follow me on this one: Made an iMovie and shared it with iDVD. Did all the menu items, etc. and burned the DVD. After watching the DVD, I wanted to make some edits. I went into iMovie and did the edits.
    I did not create a new iDVD with the edited iMovie because I happened to discover that when I made the edits in iMovie, they actually translated to the original iDVD. So I saved the project in both iMovie and iDVD and burned the new DVD.
    PROBLEM: Everything came out perfect except, the audio. I have audio on the menu (which I put there) but there is no audio throughout the rest of the DVD.
    I checked my iMovie and audio is there. I reviewed the iDVD project on my computer and the audio is there. I checked the audio levels on iMovie and they're at 100%. I made sure that the "check boxes" on the 3 lines of audio were checked and operable. I checked the "map" on iDVD and there is no indication of any audio issues. Yet, when I play the newly burned DVD, there is no audio other than the menu music.
    Help!!!

    Before you burn an updated project, it is a good idea to "Delete Encoded Assets" from the Advanced menu. That will start you afresh with new encoding for the updated project.
    If you have incorrectly placed chapter markers in your movie, sometimes that can cause audio problems on a DVD. Make sure that you remove or reset any chapter marker within 1 second of the beginning or end of your movie, or in a transition. This would include the "beginning" marker that is automatically set.
    You also could try dragging your iMovie project into a new iDVD project, and burning from there.
    Instead of burning directly from iDVD, save the iDVD project as a disk image (an option from the File menu), wait until the assets have encoded (it takes a while), and then play the disk image by double clicking on it, and then clicking on your DVD player app icon on your Mac. If it plays fine, then your encoding is O.K. The next step would be to try burning a DVD from the Disk Image by using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac. Open the Disk Utility window and you should see your Disk Image icon displayed in the left hand pane. If it's not there, drag it into that pane. Select it and click on the burn symbol at the top of the window. Insert a DVD-R disk and then click on the "burn" button.

  • Problem Burning Final Cut Movie Using Autoplay Feature

    I exported a Quicktime movie I made from Final Cut Pro. I wanted to burn my DVD without having the menu at the beginning, so I dragged my movie (from the "Media" link) into the autoplay box in the map view. It seems to work well-the preview shows the movie has been imported. However, after burning the DVD I get no response from my DVD player, or two other players I've used. I get error messages and the DVD does not play automatically.
    When I go back and import the Final Cut movie into a DVD theme, not using the autoplay box, and burn the DVD everything turns out fine! I cannot figure out why it doesn't work when I drag the movie into the autoplay box, but works great if I import the movie from File>Import>Video.
    Not sure if this matters, but when I exported my Quicktime movie from Final Cut I did not make the movie "self-contained." Any help on this would be great!

    Hello Wade,
    you should always create a disk image from your iDVD project. That way you can test it with DVD Player before actually burning to disc and rule out burn errors by burning at slow speed with DU.
    Not sure if this matters, but when I exported my Quicktime movie from Final Cut I did not make the movie "self-contained."
    That may well be one of the problems. If you do a search on the FCP board, you'll find that most experienced users recommend exporting as self-contained.
    I'd suggest exporting a self contained QT movie from your timeline, then creating a disk image.
    hope this helps
