Bad quallity film after burning dvd with idvdv professional quality.

After making a movie in imovie and importing it in idvdv the quality is still HD
after burning a dvd with professional quality the quatity of the dvdv is very poor. Horizontal lines are dancing over the screen!!
Can anyone tell me wat is going on???

Keep in mind that all Dvd's burned through your mac and are playable on your mac as well as your set top DVD player are ALWAYS standard definition /SD. There is no way around this (that is if your intentions is for playback on most computers and most set top Dvd Players.
One of the limiting factors is apple's dvd player app. It isn't fully blu-ray compatible yet. Meaning that even if you did burn a high def. Dvd which is only playble on Sony's PS3 and most set top Blu-ray players .... the finished Dvd won't play on your mac since apple has yet to update/upgrade their DVD Player application to fully incorporate Blu-ray standards. To the best of my knowledge, apple's support is very limited here. Hence the alternative for mac users is to use Roxio Toast's Blu-ray plug in as well as Toast Blu-ray player. If you opt to go high def through Toast then the completed Dvd will NOT play on most set top dvd players but will on most Blu-ray Players as well as Sony's PS3.
Hope this advice helps but if not just come on back.

    I really appreciate the fast sent solution about my failure to burn DVDs with Lion, but I am 89 years old and think I know something about computers, but don't have a clue about ZAPPing PRAM nor RESET SMC.  I also can't find any evidence of a preserved earlier OS (Snow Leopard).  I also don't know how to partition further my drive after all this time…(I used to have Parallels partitioned) but as I said I cannot find any where on the HD SN.  Is it possible that it doesn't exist anymore?  Not too technical, please, unless that is the only possible answer to this whole delemna..

    Blue colored text in these forums usually indicates a clickable link. The two I posted in https://discussions.apple.com/message/18789716#18789716 bring up Apple's articles on those subjects. For partitioning information, peruse Disk Utilities help files, especially

  • I have a Power Mac G4. I have previously burned DVDs with no problem.  Now I get an error message stating it doesn't recognize the disc and an error

    I have a Power Mac G4 with OX 10.4.11.  I have previously burned DVDs with no problem.  Now I've gotten two different sets of messages.  One states that
    the disc is not readable and an error code: 0x8002006D.  The more recent message states the disc is incompatible and an error code: 0x80020025.
    What is going on?  I need to burn discs immediately for a conference next week.

    "The more recent message states the disc is incompatible and an error code: 0x80020025."
    The error (0x80020025) refers to an unsupported drive (not disk).  I've read about relaunching the Finder to correct the problem.  Choose "Force Quit" from the Apple Menu and then choose "Finder." Click "Relaunch" and see if the drive still produces the error.  If there's no change, I'd be tempted to replace the drive.

  • Burning dvd with premiere elements 11

    I burn video files on to dvds.  I always key NTSC widescreen.  Sometimes, the image fills the tv screen.  Most of the time however, there is a 2" wide black border around the image, between the image and the edge of the tv screen.  How do I get the image to fill the tv screen?

    Thank you for responding to my problem.  I'm afraid the reading didn't help.  All of my 20 files were created with the same camera, the same project settings, the same equipment, etc.  But when I burned each of them to their own dvd disc, a few of the programs filled the frame on the tv down the hall.  Most however, have a 2" black border around the image.  It makes no sense to me.

  • Cannot Burn DVD with DVD Studio Pro 2

    Help.
    I can't burn DVDs with DVDSP 2.
    Here's the error message :
    "Recording Engine : Device is not supported for the requested burn operation."
    Anyone else have this problem?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Sounds to me like you have a LaCie d2 dual layer burner or one of the LaCie burners that has issues. LaCie has created an updated driver to fix this so check the support site:

  • Found grease on disks after burning DVDs or CDs

    I own a brand new iMAC G5. After burning couple DVDs using the super drive, I found some grease spots on some of the disks. The grease spots had caused the DVDs unusable/unreadable anymore.
    I called AppleCare, they said they will replace my drive.
    Grease in a drive! This is weird. Has anyone experienced it before?
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   2.0GHz, 1G RAM, Bluetooth2.0, 250G HD

    Darth, welcome to the discussions.
    As with anything that is MASS PRODUCED this can happen,
    I think this is the 2nd time I have seen this issue in 2 years.
    Apple said they will fix it so there is not a problem.
    Cheers Don

  • IMac shuts down after burning DVDs.

    Brand new aluminum iMac 20" with Tiger 10.4.11 installed. We've found that after burning a DVD(-R) the iMac just shuts off - bizarre.
    Any ideas why this is happening? Fix?

    That's interesting, so it's not a heat problem then. So do just a few of us have defective iMac burners, or does everyone? Friends of mine who use Mac laptops for processing similar files to me, have not had this problem of mid-burn shutdown, nor has a friend in UK on a pre-Intel iMac and 10.4.9. I tried several different brands of CDs and DVDs including TDK, Verbatim Data-life Plus (usually very reliable), and DataStream. All failed equally. So far the external LaCie burner is working well and is a work around for the problem. Why was it that only the aif files failed for me? You would think if there was a Mac problem then we would all have the same thing happening?

  • After burning DVD, DVD player cannot play main menu

    Hi all,
    I created a project with a main menu with several links to submenus in Encore. When i take a preview it all looks great. However after burning the DVD, the DVD reader is unable to lanch the CD to it's master main menu (set as first play) and after a long time searching, it starts one of the submenus. There i have a link back to the main menu, but it doesn't seem to work.
    I tried this on several DVD players but all has the same problem. I also create a DVD folder on HD, there it works.
    I'm pretty sure my DVD burner works fine. Could it be that Encore is using too heavy compression (the avi file is 29Gig and fits on 1 DVD) that can not be use for let's say cheaper version of DVD players? (2 years old).
    If not, any other idea where the problem could be ??
    Tx

    Hi Harm,
    you were absolutely right. I was either suspecting the large avi file to be to heavily compressed or my dvd burner but NO...i just bought some TDK 16 DVD-R and the whole thing was solved. Saves me a lot of trouble, no new DVD-R, no new software.... tx mate :)
    ps do you know any gud site where i can found some good audio samples which can be used for DVD menus?

  • How to burn DVD with project from iMovie ?

    Last year I had made several iMovie projects on a macbook pro. I was unable to burn them to a dvd so I ended up transfering them to a Windows computer and using ImgBurn and I successfully made playable DVDs.
    I know have a Mac with Yosemite and I just finished a iMovie project. I need to burn it to a playable DVD. I've spent hours researching and trying to find a way. I have Video_TS and Audio_TS files, an iso file, and a mpg file. Surely, if you are able to create a "movie" there must be an easy way to burn it to a DVD?
    If a Superdrive is able to burn DVD's shouldn't there be an option somewhere?
    I have iMovie 10.0.6
    Yosemite 10.10.1
    I do not have iDVD

    I solved my own problem. After two full days of trying and having multiple videos files (iso, mp4, mpg,video_ts, audio_ts,etc) I was finally able to burn a playable DVD! I ended up using miDVD to burn it. I first exported my iMovie project as a file and opened up the Movies file and dropped it in there. From there it showed up in the miDVD program and it was super simple to get it burned to a dvd that works in dvd players and on my mac.

  • MISSING ASSET AFTER BURNING DVD

    Hello all,
    I worked with DVD Studio Pro 4.2.2 (snow leopard Mac OS X v10.6.4) I've finished a DVD with many videos and images right now, everything is where it has to be, I haven't moved anything, there SHOULD be no missing assets, as I have moved NOTHING.
    Thus, I burnt my DVD and I checked it out... And voilá... when I checked the DVD there are some random red screen displaying this message "Missing asset 'name X'"
    Does anyone know why this is happening??? I'm going mad with this!!!
    Thank you very much in advance

  • Out of focus photos after burning dvd.

    I am using Magic iDVD in iDVD 08. Have created a movie with photos imported from iPhoto. All appears to be well when I preview the movie prior to burning it (i.e. photos are clear and sharp, and burning process appears to go as it should). But when I view the burned DVD all the photos are quite out of focus. This occurs whether I watch the DVD on my iMac or TV. Am using Philips DVD-R discs. Have tried different encoding settings with no difference in results.

    It looks to me like the flash fired for the shot, but the camera also kept the shutter open for a fairly long time to reach optimum exposure.  Can you check and see how long the exposure was?  It appears that the bright, flashed parts of the photo are sharp, so I don't think it's an optical problem.  The flash froze some of the image, but handheld camera shake created the blurring.  Try a similar shot on a solid tripod.  Or reset the exposure so that it's short enough to handhold and try again.  I'll often do dusk or nighttime shots on aperture priority setting with a flash to light up someone in the foreground.  The shutter stays open long enough to light up the dark, unflashed areas in the background, leading to a long exposure, so I have to use a tripod and have a model that can stay very still.  Otherwise the photos end up looking like your shot.  As far as saving the photo that you posted--it would take a huge amount of effort by someone that's very good with Photoshop.

  • Burning dvd with no menu

    Hello,
    I am looking for a way to burn a movie so that the movie automatically plays when ou put it in the dvd player, without a menu screen coming up first. is that possible?

    I have burned dvd's from idvd with no menue. What i did was go to the themed screen I chose, whether I want to use it or not in the final burn, and click on the "three boxes" icon (called the" show the DVD map")on the bottom of the menu page. It shows a box with the words "Drag content here to automatically play when disc is inserted.What I do is click and drag the movie to that gray box, and then continue on to burn the dvd to a disk. the dvd will burn and will automatically play when you insert the finished dvd into a dvd player.

  • Internal software error: .\vobulator\titleplanner\cgopgrouper.cpp, line 401 when burning DVD with sl

    I am burning a DVD that has 10 slideshows. Each slideshow is treated as a chapter. I have burned DVDs in the past using this method with no problems. Now, with this project I get the following.
    internal software error: .\vobulator\titleplanner\cgopgrouper.cpp, line 401

    This error came up again (the first time i had to rebuild), and i figured out that it had to do with a clip i had in a timeline that needed trimming, and would not butt up cleanly to the preceeding clip. i am assuming that the chapter point i inserted did not fall on a GOP, and generated this error.
    when i took that clip out of the timeline and put it in it's own seperate timeline, the disc burned with no problem.
    hope this help someone else skip the frustration i had.
