Bizarre looping -- First Menu after "Warning" Into Quicktime halts playback under software players

Creating a DVD under CS5, and also tried creating a version in CS6. Same behaviour:
We want to play a 20 second "WARNING" as First Play, so I made a graphic, fadeup/fadedown, compressed an m2v of it, and even a silent ac3, and a timeline. From there, we want to go to a Main Menu with a couple of buttons... the usual, Play, Special Features, Chapters... The concept is to have a Quicktime running behind it with natural sound, so we have a 28 second menu, set up to play #infinite, loop point 00:00:00:00 and a duration of 28 seconds.
What is confounding is that this functions exactly as advertised in the Encore simulator, and on consumer DVD players... but NOT on any PC, Apple or Windows, either the Apple DVD PLayer or Windows Media Player. What the physical disk does is -- play the Warning, which is great.. switches to the Main Menu, plays it once and quits. No more anything. Black. Operation Not Available.
What is also galling is that if you do not allow the main menu to play all the way to its 28 second conclusion, the disk functions normally, even when you return either with a "Back" button from a discrete "Main Menu" command found on any other menu -- it loops forever over its 28 second duration...

Ask in the Encore forum and provide a screenshot of your flowgraph and the menu actions. this usually happens when an action is not set.

  • Audio out of sync after exporting into Quicktime using current settings.

    Quicktime file has audio out of sync when I export to quicktime movie using current settings.
    Ok for about the first few minutes then, out of sync after about 10 minutes.
    I shot the footage on tape with my Sony HVR-Z7u.
    My Sequence setting is the same as the format of the footage as shown below.
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD 1440x1080

    I recently moved and both of my editing machines were unplugged for a couple of days until I could get them set up. After turning them back on, the problem had disappeared. Perhaps leaving the system unplugged had allowed some of the internal components to reset? That's the only thing I can think of. At any rate, the issue is gone.

  • Seeing first frame after hitting menu

    I've got a DVD studio pro file that when you hit menu, after hitting the play movie button from the main menu, always jumps to the first frame of the menu (pre-loop point) and then goes to the loop point. I've had similar things happen before. I've got a script that jumps to the loop point any time the main menu has been played. Interestingly, it does not do this if I go to chapter menu, play the movie from a chapter, and then hit menu.
    In the past when I've had a similar problem, I've created a duplicate menu with a video background that doesn't have the intro so the loop point and the start point are the same. I then remove the scripts when necessary. In this case I've tried all that and cannot get it to work Anyone have any clues?

    What version of DVD SP are you running? And does this happen on a burned disc in a set top player and in the Apple DVD Player?

  • Return to main menu after chapter...

    Is iDVD capable of returning to main menu after a certain chapter plays? The reason I ask is because I have a clip I would like to keep "hidden" - it's technically chapter 3, but I don't want it to play as part of the movie - I only want it be played by selecting "extra scene" in the main menu (don't really want it in the scene selection menu, but i'd take that also)- but I have a feeling iDVD can't do that... I hope i'm wrong though.
    Another thing - i'm putting together a dvd with concerts - is it possible to have a menu and a scene selection menu for EACH show? For instance - concert #1 would have a menu - with a scene selection spot - and concert #2 would have the same - and 3 and so on... Of course, that brings me back to my first question - can these play without running together?
    or do I need DVD Studio Pro? cause I think that's probably what i'm gonna have to look into.

    Separate iMoive or FC projects can be input separately.
    You can split a moive and import only what you want by exporting it to Quicktime alone.
    But if something is a part of your main video project, it will play along with the other parts.
    You can delete its chapter selection from your menu, but the video will still play in order in the project.
    And, no iDVD can't return to the main menu from a certain chapter in the project.
    The only way to do that is to (as stated above) import that video separately.
    I'd say you still have a lot of options before you jump to DVDSP.

  • Only part of IMovie HD movie will export into Quicktime

    I'm trying to export a movie from IMovie HD into Quicktime, but the video will only export up to a certain frame, while the entire audio exports. Hard drive space isn't an issue. I tried saving it on an external hard drive with a ton of space and it did the same thing. It doesn't give me a message, it just doesn't include the video after a certain point.

    Hi
    a. Does it indicate low on free space ? NO THAT'S why I parrot it !
    Only internal (booth/start-up) hard disk counts.
    b. QuickTime is the heart of iMovie, iMovie HD, FinalCut Express and Pro.
    If it doesn't work - non of above will
    c. There should be ways to mighrate material to FinalCut. I only know howto
    with the imported/captured material

  • Question concerning disco intro to first menu...

    I'm ready to print my DVD. I used Final Cut to create a disc intro, using a scene from the movie. At the end of the clip, I created a freeze-frame and exported the frame to a JPEG. I used the JPEG as my menu screen background. So what happens, is the last frame of the disc intro becomes the background for the menu screen with no black frames or dissolves.
    The problem--The menu screen stretches out the JPEG horizontally. I have no idea by how much it does this, otherwise I'd use Photoshop to correct.
    How can I correct for this?

    Niffy,
    What you are referring to is often called "Play First," or "FBI Warning," depending on where one is looking.
    As Steve points out, it is available in dedicated authoring programs. One more to add to Steve's list is DVD Studio Pro.
    What you want is common in most authoring programs, and there is no limit (other than one's imagination) to what one might set as Play First, prior to the Menu. I just did a Project with six Timelines, prior to the first Menu, and the last was actually an AV file that had what appeared to be Buttons on that Menu flying in. They were not the "actual" Buttons, but just graphics of them. They were not active as Buttons, until the short Video ended and the real Menu came onto the screen. There was a 3 Frame moment, when it appeared that the Buttons were there, before the actual Buttons were on screen. If the user was very impatient, they might have clicked on one of these "fake" Buttons, but I figured that by the time those last 3 Frames played, the real Menu with Buttons would be on screen.
    PrE is neat for straight DVD authoring, as it does most of the "heavy-lifting" for the user. However, in that semi-automation, there are some major limits. I'd look into some of the stand-alone authoring apps. (about the only common one missing from the list now is Sonic Scenarist, but it is $$$$$, and for pro authoring studios only), as they offer so much more power.
    Also, be aware that the DVD-specs. are very strict, and limit what one can do with a DVD-Video. The trick is to "fool the audience," into thinking that they are seeing something, that cannot happen in the DVD-Video - create an illusion.
    Good luck,

  • Mpeg2 DVD VOBs Video and Audio into QuickTime ?

    How can I read the mpeg2 VOB files from some DVD that we created into QuickTime Pro with the MPEG2 playback component ?
    We have an app that does video and audio processing built on QuickTime. After the processing is done the result is written to an mp4 file using QuickTime export. We now have to be able to read DVDs that we create into this app (QuickTime), and after processing we must se the QuickTime export option to create the mp4 file. These are not commercial DVDs and are not copy protected. I'd like to just be able to read the mpeg2 video and audio directly into QuickTime but I haven't yet found a good way to do this. Here is what I have tried:
    1) I can read individual VOB files with QuickTime, but I don't get any audio and I need all the VOB files as one.
    2) I have used MPEG Streamclip to open the DVD VOB files and exported the demuxed mpeg2 video and aiff audio. Both files open together in QuickTime but since the total size of the video is over 4 GB the video and audio are off and drift more so throughout the video.
    3) I used libdvdread to read the DVD and create a single MPEG2 file. This can be read by QuickTime but I don't get any audio. From what I understand this is muxed video and audio which QuickTime doesn't understand, but is playable by VLC.
    I think I could probably ulibdvdread to read the VOB files into a muxed MPEG2 file, then use ffmpeg to convert this to a very large DV stream, then import that into QuickTime, but there has to be a better way than to do the lengthly and large file size conversion to DV which is not a format I ultimately want.
    Before we go and write our own, I'm looking for a simple way to read the mpeg2 video and audio from a DVD format directly into QuickTime and preferably something that can be integrated into our app and not use another commercial stand alone app.

    OK, I can't tell you what we are doing, you'll have to trust me that it's for a very good cause. I'll simplify the use case as an example. If I can do the following we'll be OK:
    1) Read video/audo files from a DVD that we created
    2) Open these files with the QuickTime Player, click on Export to Apple TV to create an output file.
    I'd rather not do an interim conversion of the video data (like use a 3rd party app to convert to mp4 first and then read into QT, but I'm considering a conversion to DV) because that could seriously hurt the apps effectiveness. I also can't use another app (MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, VisualHub, etc.) to do the conversion.

  • IMovie clips freezing/stuttering while editing in playback & after exporting to Quicktime

    I've been working with iMovie since 2003 and if its not one thing, its always another. This particular problem is a new one, and I can't seem to find the get around. Any advice would be appreciated!
    Working on a wedding video (large event size but only 6-8 minute project) and the clips are freezing/stuttering in the project and viewer windows when I try to play them back. Each time it freezes, I get the spinning wheel for 5-10 seconds before I can place my marker and try again. Endless cycle. This happened in a few other projects, but those I was able to edit out the freezing clips OR found that exporting to Quicktime seemed to smooth out the glitches, just made editing a pain.
    Not this time. Even after exporting to Quicktime, there are still numerous glitches in my quicktime movies (using default and numerous other settings).
    Here are the things I've tried: reinstalling my iLife 09 software, running all the updates, clearing off my hard drive (to give me 70+GB of space), detaching my external hard drive and only using internal memory, restarting, and deleting the plists. No luck, still have these glitches.
    Could this be an issue with audio or using the stabilization option (used that for the first time)?

    jepartyservice wrote:
    .. 90min movie .. share to iDVD .. iMovie would freeze and be unresponsive.. .exporting to QuickTime .. 13 hours .. random stills .. iMovie will freeze ..
    Would putting all of the clips and the project on an external hard drive help? Would updating to OS 10.5.8 help exporting to QuickTime?
    plus your profile, MacBook, indicates to me, your internal harddrive is full.
    check with DiskUtility, how many partitions your internal drive has.
    check, how much free disk space internal you offer your apps.
    imho, extHDD is a MUST when editing video..
    .. is there any way to move our already edited clips from iM09 to iM06?
    use 'Export using Quicktime', choose dv-stream (for SD content) or AppleIntermediate (for HD content) - these are the only codecs, iMHD6 reads..
    this export consolidate the project => it comes into iMHD6 as a single solid file, e.g. no more editing of titles, which are now 'burned into film'.
    _consider to create a special 'transfer'-version of your project:_
    in Project Browser, select project, ctrl-click, 'duplicate', and create a pre-production version (no titles, no music, additional material for further editing, longer clips to add transitions in iMHD6.. ect)

    I honestly don't remember.  I believe I was trying to set up i3status dhcp at the time.  Could have been the DHCP configuration file I created at /etc/systemd/network that broke my netctl configuration.  I should have mentioned that first.  I broke the internet and walked away two days ago and it's slowly coming back to me.  I don't follow the relation between systemd, netctl, and dhcp configuration so I'm sorry if I'm not picking up on solutions provided in your links.
    I commented the file out right after I started receiving those errors.
    $cat /etc/systemd/network/MyDhcp.network
    #[Match]
    #Name=wlp4s0

    netctl.service

    netctl-sleep.service
    To repeat myself, I can connect using wifi-menu after I ip link set wlp4s0 down.  I'm just looking for a fix so I can set up automatic connections.
    EDIT: I deleted /etc/systemd/network/MyDhcp.network and now it works at startup.  Any idea why a commented out file would be having an adverse effect like this?

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

  • In scene selection mode, can you make iDVD return to the scene selection menu after playing that scene without continuing to play all the other scenes?

    After selecting one scene from the scene selection menu, the following scenes play automatically, as if it were in "play movie" mode. Is there a way to stop that behavior and have the DVD return to the scene selection menu after playing just the selected scene?

    OK
    So what You want is a "Play All" button resp. a "Play one Chapter at a time" one.
    Then
    BAD News - There are Non ! in iDVD
    GOOD News - it can in part be faked.
    read on
    Play all resp. one chapter at a time
    Play All Button 
    1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
    2. It can be faked in several ways
    • Easiest and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
    Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
    Cons: Tried this in iMovie’11 by Exporting out each part as a full Quality QT.mov then Importing back into new events and putting these into a new project (Play All project). Resulting DVD had Audio that was OK (as parts) - BUT the picture was very bad and standing photo were cut of in height. So the Play All movie has to be created from same material and exactly in the same way as the individual parts + then Chapters has to be set to match.
    • It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
    give the function of a Play All button - Tested - and ONE HAS TO un-cheque - Scale pictures to TV-Safe area else it will be a black frame all around and a small picture !
    Mike Evangelist1
    You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.
    3. Using another program to do this e.g.. Roxio Toast™ where there is a Play All button option.
    Summary
    a. Making a Play All movie with same care as the individual Part movies - gives a very Good Result
    b. Using Roxio Toast™ - also an usable way to go

  • After writing into serial port, the same message gets bounced back into the Inqueue also. If anyone know how to avoid this, please rpely.

    Hi,
    After writing into serial port, the same message gets bounced back into the Inqueue also. If anyone know how to avoid this, please reply.
    Thanks,
    Ganesh

    If you disconnect the cable going to the serial device, do you still get the echo? If so you have something going on in the port setup. If disconnecting the cable stops the echo then the device you're talking to is doing it - which would be my bet. One thing to check is whether this might not be normal operation. I have seen devices that if a command was successful, it simply echo'd back the command string you had sent. Also many serial devices have setting for specifying whether they are to echo commands.

  • How to import original clips edited in After Effects into Adobe Premiere, without the After Effects

    What is the quickest and easiest way to bring clips that were edited within after effects into adobe premiere? I just want the original clip as it is cut, without any of the after effects manipulation. I am trying to gather the cuts of a green screen project together that was compiled and edited within Adobe After Effects, so they can be rekeyed. I want to detach all effects work, and just have a straight green screen cut of the original files. Each cut though, is its own compilation. Simply importing to a new sequence doesn't seem to be the answer because I first have to uncheck many effects to find the original clip buried beneath layers of mattes and various effects. I have probably 400 different cuts, and currently my workflow is super slow just searching for the original clip in after effects, looking for the time code, then matching the original clip and timecode into Premiere. Is there a faster an easier workflow?
    Thank you

    I just want the original clip as it is cut, without any of the after effects manipulation.
    Then you need the original clip.

    It's what you may need to do, though. Unless you know exactly where the clips are on the hard drive.
