Blue Ray Burn

Please excuse me if I am not in the correct forum for this question. I have been trying to burn a blue ray movie with toast and I keep getting an error stating
"interface error 4, the connection is not stable". I have a Pioneer blue ray 205 burner. I have used sony and verbatim discs. I was able to get a burn without an error using share from final cut 7 but the disc would not play in my blue ray player. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm really not sure where to go from here.

You might want to talk to Toast users on a Toast forum.

DVD & Blu Ray Burner Drive Trays Do Not Stay Open When Media is in the Drive

I have a problem with both Windows 8/8.1 and the Windows 10 Technical Preview (there is no issue when I run Windows 7).
I have 2 optical drives: 1) DVD Burner and 2) Blu Ray Burner (I just got the second drive a few weeks ago). They are attached to the secondary SATA Chip (see below for specifics).
The problem I'm having is that when I eject media from either drive, the drive does not stay open, but rather immediately closes. Before I got the Blu Ray Burner, I had this problem with just the single DVD Burner by itself. I was hoping when I installed
Windows 10 Technical Preview that this problem would not be present, but it is present in that O/S as well.
This problem will repeat continuously if I attempt to use the eject button and so I either have to grab the disc while the tray is moving, or if I press the eject button again on the drive at the right time, I can get it to re-open and not close (this
is tricky to get the button timing right as it seems like it has to be done close to when the drive tray is fully extended when it starts retracting). It usually takes me 5 to 10 button presses to get it to stay open. Sometimes it will stay open for about
0.5 to 1s before it closes again, but most of the times it just immediately closes. I also have the same problem if I use the software eject feature by right clicking on the drive and choosing eject.
Of course, the expected behavior is that pressing the eject button should open the tray, but not close it immediately allowing you to remove the disc.
Here is some background information about my system and how the drives are connected:
1. Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EP45-ED3P Revision 1.0 LGA 775
2. Interface (for both drives): Gigabyte SATA II Chip - 2 x SATA 3 GB/s connectors (GSATA2_0, GSATA2_1) supporting up to 2 SATA 3 GB/s devices
3. Memory: 8 GB (4 x 2 GB)
It should be noted that I tri-boot between Windows 7, 8/8.1, and 10 Technical Preview and that this issue is not present in Windows 7, but has always been there in Windows 8/8.1 and now it is present in 10TP as well.
I've had this system for just over 6 years now and it is still going strong. It should be noted that I have both drives on the secondary SATA chip (as identified above), which is meant to be used with removable SATA devices.
Since the problem exhibits itself in both Windows 8/8.1 and 10TP, a reinstall of the O/S will have no affect on this problem and so this appears to be some other issue that is consistent between Windows 8/8.1 and 10TP.
I'd appreciate your support in looking at this issue - thanks!

Hey Zagayer,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
As you now have two optical drives in your Mac Pro, you need to be able to choose which drive to eject. That is built into the system. You just hold the Option key while tapping eject for the 2nd drive.
OS X Mountain Lion: Eject a disk

If your computer has two optical drives, hold down Option-Media Eject or Option-F12 to eject a disc from the second drive.
Have a nice day,

Premiere Elements 11 no longer recognizes my external blu-ray burner.

I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today, but for some reason Premiere Elements 11 is not recognizing it. Windows 7 sees it just fine. Premiere Elements 8 (which is still loaded on the same computer) also does not recognize it.
What do I need to do? Samsung's website is no help, but I have a feeling it's an Adobe issue since Windows 7 still recognizes the drive.

When is your Blu-ray burner not recognized
Premiere Elements 11: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, burn to AVCHD on DVD disc, or all?
Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, or both?
and when you wrote:
I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today
Did "....many times before today" imply that you could use the burner for Premiere Elements 11 and 8.0/8.0.1 before. I am trying to get a whether this is a "it worked before but now" or a "it never worked before" type issue.
Do you have the USB 2.0 cable connected to a USB 2.0 computer port directly or via a USB multi port hub? I take it that this burner does not have AC support? If you are using only 1 USB 2.0 port, can you set up the burner for 2 USB 2.0 ports?
Does the computer involved have an internal burner? Or is this the only burner that you have available to you external or internal for the computer?
Let us start here and then decide what avenues of further troubleshooting are available to us.
Thanks.

I don't see a blu-ray icon in the destination window of my Final Cut Pro app even if I have an LG blu-ray burner connected

I have a MACBOOK PRO running under 10.9 and 4 Gigs memory. I bought FCP to be able to burn blu-rays videos (I produced a 4h30 video on a trip to Turkey)
My video is produced in full HD. I have an LG blu-ray burner. I bought training videos on FCP at Macpro Video and they show that going on SHARE and selecting ADD A NEW DESTINATION will bring a window where should be an icon of a blu-ray disc. But I don't see any blu-ray icon there. My burner is the model BP40NS20

Thanks Tom! Yes, I have the french version. Then, is there a something to do to correct it.

Final Cut Pro X witch Blu-ray Burner are you using ...

Using a Mac Pro Tower like the Mac Pro 2012 or similar what are the Blu-ray Internal Burners do you use ; LG or Pioneer , witch Model Number.
Creating Blu-ray on the Mac is fantastic but witch brand and model numbers for the Big Mac Pro Tower are you using with exellent results now.
On the Mac Apple Pro Apps or Roxio Toast Titanium are the only left options who are current and updated , but burners specified for Windows.
Frustration come when you talk to Apple they say not supported , Burners makers LG or Pioneer will say we dont offer support on the Mac.
Well if you can create Blu-ray on the Mac but cant get any help to burn it it is very frustrating and Not So Pro if Apple care for the Pro Users.

I use the new Mac Pro 2013. Final Cut Pro X version 10.1.4 and Maverick OS 10.9.5. An external Blu-ray burner LG BE14NU40. I've use single burn Blu-ray discs from brands like Maxell and Verbatim. That works fine. I have double layers Blu-ray discs not tried. I use it for home video’s.
DVD single works fine too. DVD double layers I have not tried but will also work i think. Reviews on LG USA stated that Roxio Titanium with corresponding plugin works.
I'm glad I found a blu-ray burner that works with FCPX. Compressor 4.1.3 but I have not been working with the LG burner. Not yet!

Pavilllion HPE H8-1234 Blue-ray Burning?

Using a H8-1234 for import and DVD burning from a Sony Handycam that uses the HD AVCHD progressive format, I was able to burn a standard disc but not one in HD when trying to use the AVCHD format. Not much point in having a HD camera if you can't burn a HD DVD. Is the Supermulti burner in this PC not able to burn a disc in HD? If not can I just install another burner in place of the Supermulti? Also I would like to be able to burn Blue-ray disc's; is that possible and how?
BTW the Sony "Play Memories Home" software with the "Expanded Feature" works perfectly for importing and editing from the camera. They also offer a "BD Add on Software" to support the burning of the Blue-ray but I have not installed because I need to find out if the rest of my system is capable.
Hope someone can help
Randy

RRRaider, welcome to the forum.
Here is a guide to help you determine if your drive will burn HD. Personally, I couldn't find any data that states it is possible.
If the burner is will not burn in HD, you certainly can install a Blu-ray burner in its place.

FCP 7 "Share to blu-ray" burn issue.

This may not actually be a FCP issue, but possibly some of you here are experienced in the matter.
Firstly, my video is 1080/24p ProRes.
This is my first jump into Blu-ray, and I'm quickly learning the many work-arounds, but have run in to a problem.
Initially I tried exporting a QuickTime with "current settings", and dropping it in toast and encoding/burning.
Video looked pretty good, but it was choppy. Google tells me this seems to be a common issue with toast and 24p.
Most suggest encoding with Compressor and then burning with Toast.
Tried that, but I couldn't get it to just encode the files and that be all. It kept asking for a blu-ray disc and ejecting the drive, as if Compressor was going to burn it?
When I would choose "cancel burn", my only option, the whole batch would fail. After all that encoding time...
Wasn't too depressed, because after digging more, Google also told me that many believe the h264 encode using the "share" function in FCP produces better results. Though the options are non-existent, it did great. My only complaint is you are forced to convert audio to .ac3. Well that *****.
So I went ahead and exported all the audio from IN and OUT markers as .aiff.
This is where my problem arrives..
I threw the h264 and aiff in Toast, chose "never re-encode", and it burnt fine.
Video looks great, no stuttering. But the AUDIO! It slows drifts out of sync...
Video is an hour long, and at about 20 minutes in, it's 1-2 seconds behind, and goes from there.
Why would that be?
Any experience with this?
I checked, and the ac3 that FCP made, and the aiff are the EXACT same length.
Any thoughts? Or any other work-around for keeping audio lossless?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, Johnny.
I wasn't saying AC3 s*u*c*k*s. And really.. Why is that word censored? I didn't do that.
I was saying it ***** that you ONLY have the option of AC3 with the "Share to blu-ray" feature.
And yea, I'm sure I would never know the differene, and especially not my grandparents with their home movies.
But it just seems d*u*m*b (can I say that?) to be going through all this trouble for a "lossless" lineage, ie. HD camera, FCP, Blu-ray burner/player, and have to compress the audio. Isn't that one of the main advantages of blu-ray?! Quality? Wether we can detect it or not?! Ha!. Okay..
I thought an easy workaround would be to export the audio to AIFF and drop it in.
No idea why it's drifting....but yes, in the end i may settle.
Though I'll feel cheated! Guess that's what I get for loving BOTH Apple and Blu-ray....
If anyone has other processes of getting good 24p to Blu-ray, please share!
Thanks again.

Blu-ray burning

I want to burn my HDV 50i movie from Premiere Pro CS4 to Blu-ray disc. I click File > Output > Media, then select HDV etc, MPEG2 Blu-ray, start queue and it does the encoding. When it's finished it doesn't ask me to insert a disc, or where to burn it to, or anything. It just sits there doing nothing. If I look in My Documents\Adobe\PremierePro\4.0 I can find the movie, but if I drag and drop it to the Blu-ray, it says "Some files could not be added because the formats are not supported or the files could not be found." What is wrong? My Blu-ray burner is LG GGW-H20L, my HD is 500GB, 3GB RAM, Intel 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz

Do you HAVE to use Encore or not to burn Blu-ray? Some say you do, some say you don't.
I looked at the video "Exporting your project" and everything works fine up to the point where the film is fully rendered in Adobe Media Encoder, except she says it goes into a folder called Exercise Files\Assets - it doesn't - it goes into 4.0 Then she says you can export it to wherever you want but she doesn't tell you how.
The only way I can find the rendered movie is to click File > Export > Media again and click Output Name which brings up the Save As window where the movie is listed, then R click on it and send it to Instant Burn CD, but then it either does nothing, or it says "D:\ is not accessible. Incorrect function", or it says "Windows cannot read from this disc, or you could be using a format that is not compatible with windows."
Then I read the tutorial called "Authoring and burning Blu-ray discs." I did all the right things in Encore, Clicked OK, and it briefly flashed up a window saying it was importing the project or something, then that vanished, and nothing else happened. So nothing works!
Am I very stupid, or is my system totaly crap?

Installed Blu-Ray burner in Mac Pro. Vista Bootcamp compatible?

I have a Mac compatible blu-ray burner in my Mac Pro. Will Bootcamp transfer the necessary driver for it to work in Windows Vista or Windows 7?
Anybody else have a Blu-ray burner in their Mac Pro's?

I'm waiting on delivery of my new OWC external and will strip the Pioneer out of it and jam it into the mac pro replacing the second windtubine upon receipt. I know I could have gotten the bare stand alone drive but with the case you also get the flexibilty of moving it around, cables and two 25 gig discs..all for about $100
Re the 50 gig burning question..try finding 50 g discs...

Are there any Installation instructions for adding an MCE internal Blu-Ray burner to a Mac Pro(2013) running OS X Montain Lion?

Looking for any installation instructions or assistance in adding hardware (MCE internal blu-ray burner multi-drive14x) to my Mac Pro system running the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion.

Ask the vendor if they provide installation instructions. Otherwise, do a Google search for links on installing optical devices in a Mac Pro.

Blu Ray burn problem

I'm trying to burn a blu-ray disk from a 5 minute FCP X video. Each time I try I get the following message:
The bit rate of the video file exceeded the maximum allowable.
How can I work around this?

robertjeffrey
What Blu-ray burner do you have? Is it recognized in the Device Manager under DVD/CD-ROM drives? Driver and Firmware up to date?
What burn software came with the Blu-ray burner? If it is part of the CyberLink family, can you use the PowerProducer of the series to burn to Blu-ray disc format on a Blu-ray disc using these Blu-ray discs that Premiere Elements burn dialog is labelling "Media Not Present"? I would like to see the results of that test if possible.
Just to get it out of the way (maybe helpful), let us flush the preferences...
Assuming your Premiere Elements 11 is on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit....
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
11
and in the 11 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs Folder that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 11 Folder in which it exists.Make sure that you are working with Folder Options/Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the path described.
If that does not work, a complete Deactivation from Help Menu/Deactivate followed by the usual Control Panel uninstalled followed by reinstall may be in order. I am hoping the results from a CyberLink PowerProducer burn to may give us some valuable information so that we do not have to resort to uninstall/reinstall.
Are you using BD-R 25 GB 2X? What is this BD-R DL? Is that the 50 GB for Blu-ray? Do you have any BD-RE 25 GB 6X? How much are you planning on putting on this Blu-ray disc in terms of Space Required and duration?
Let us start here and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.

Premiere elements 11 does not recognize blu ray burner

Purchased Pawtec external blu ray burner. Premiere elements 11 recognizes it as a dvd burner but not a blu ray burner. How can I fix this?

Long160
There is no burn to folder for Blu-ray in Premiere Elements (any version), so we cannot use that escape route. What has been used in the past as a workaround for this "no burn to folder for Blu-ray" is creating a Blu-ray disc image with Premiere Elements in conjunction with a virtual Blu-ray burner with a virtual BD-RE disc. I have written about that in the following blog post
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/11/pe12-disc-imagephantom-burner-pe.html
But, as for the Pawtec external Blu-ray burner being recognized in the Premiere Elements 11 burner location in burn to Blu-ray,
a. you may just have an external Blu-ray burner that is not compatible with Premiere Elements
b. you could try for a Premiere Elements 11 uninstall/reinstall going the route of Deactivation with in the program (Help Menu/Deactivate), uninstall via regular Control Panel route, ccleaner run through (https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner), reinstall.
Have you tried another USB port? Does the Blu-ray burner require one or two USB connections to have enough power for functioning?
Also, do you have all you operating system updates?
More later.

Will Adobe Encore CS4 burn MTS files to an external blue ray burner if I buy one?

Will Adobe Encore CS4 recognize/burn MTS files to an EXTERNAL blue ray burner if I buy one?

Internal vs external should not matter.
I have a burned to external with CS4, but it was a long time ago.
And most importantly, Encore is not a reliable burner for many users, and they, and I, use imgBurn rather than Encore to burn.
Also, "burn an MTS" file is totally different from authoring and burning. Encore (was it by CS4?) added a limited AVCHD passthrough option. I have not used it.

Blu ray burner question - FCP X

I am getting ready to purchase my first blu ray burner.
I make 2 hour videos and the files become quite large. Mostly natively ingested camera video utilizing motion templates, titles. transitions, vo, music, etc.
1. Do I need a 128G capacity burner?
2. What is the best quality burner at around $150-300?
3. Do I need Toast due the size of my output?
Thanks
Sandra

I don't know about the best Blu-ray burner to get (although I would check out those at OWC) but I DO know that you will need Toast Titanium with the Blu-ray option to burn to Blu-ray as OS X doesn't natively support burning Blu-ray.
Go to the OWC website - I think that they sell Toast Titanium at a good price with some of their BR devices.

Toast 11 and ASUS Blue-Ray burner not working together!

Hey All,
I recently got an ASUS SBC-06D2X-U Blue-Ray burner and found out that little "Mac compatabile" label isn't correct. Had to get Toast 11. Now I have that and the disk spits out still when I try to burn. I don't know what to do at this point. Disks are 4x and burner is 6x, but that shouldn't matter.
Help please!

it has nothing to do with windows or mac..
Your bluray from Asus its COMBO, that model doesn´t record bluray,
ASUS SBC-06D2X-U its bluray combo (read-only blurays )
ASUS SBW-06D2X-U its blurays writer

Pioneer Blue ray burner does not work in a Mavericks.

MY Pioneer Blu Ray burner BRD-RW 206D does not work and I get this message (The disc can’t be used because the disc drive is not supported (error code 0x80020025). I have the last firm ware update in it. It worked fine in Mountain Lion but not in Mavericks.

Hi, everyone
just wanted to report I've been successfully using my Pioneer BDR-208D for a couple of days now with no further problems.
I power-cycled and put to sleep the MacPro a few times, and burned a few DVDs and a couple of BD-RE disks.
So, to summarize my experience:
Pioneer BDR-208DBK in second (lower) bay
Mavericks on Mac Pro (early 2008)
Superdrive in upper bay
Drive not appearing in eject menu button, alt-eject on keyboard
dialog pop-up: "The disc can’t be used because the disc drive is not supported (error code 0x80020025)".
What I did:
Booted back into Lion
Inserted non-blank media in the BD drive (a CD in my case)
Rebooted into Mavericks with the CD still inside the drive
System found the drive and enable eject both on keyboard and menu
Disabled "Put hard disks to sleep..." in Energy Saver prefpane - this is what I believe stopped the seemingly random disappearing of the drive
Hope this helps...
