Burning 2nd copy of movie DVD from a DVD?

I have created a (movie) DVD from iDVD and would now like to make a second copy using the DVD (it is no longer in iDVD). How can I do that?

Well, if you've moved some of your original footaga, deleted it, or whatever, the "event" may still show as an event, but there may not be any actual files in it - I am guessing that is what is going on with it being greyed out. Normally you don't move the event, you move the files inside it. You might want to do a general search on your Mac with the name(s) you used (if you remember) to see if they are anywhere. If they are not, well then, the only possibility is the DVD you had made.
In that case, MPEG Streamclip is not on the Roxio website - Roxio makes Toast. MPEG Streamclip is a video converter - you can check it out here:

Make sure you read everything about it. It is free, but in some cases, requires the $20 Apple MPEG 2 Playback Component:

Trying to Copy Home Movie DVDs

I create all of my company's training DVDs. Accordingly, a co-worker has asked me to copy some DVDs of home movies he has. To my knowledge there are no copyright issues.
Is there a way I can copy these using FCE/IDVD or disk utlity?

Here it is on a plate - using Disk Utility:-
Duplicating a CD or DVD
You can use Disk Utility to quickly copy many types of CDs and DVDs. In the steps below, you'll create a disk image of the disc, and then use that image to burn copies.
Disk Utility cannot create usable copies of discs that use an incompatible format or are copy protected. These include most movie DVDs and audio CDs and some software and data discs.
Insert the CD or DVD disc in your computer's optical drive and select it in the list of disks and volumes.
Choose File > New > "Disk Image from [name of disc]."
Type a name for the disk image.
Choose "compressed" or "read-only" from the Image Format pop-up menu.
Choose "compressed" to create a smaller disk image, and choose "read-only" to create a disk image that's quicker to create and open.
Click Save.
After Disk Utility creates the disk image, eject the original CD or DVD.
Select the disk image in the list of disks and volumes, and choose Images > Burn.
When the Burn Disc dialog appears, insert a blank CD or DVD, and then click Burn.
You can continue using the disk image to create as many duplicate discs as you need.

IDVD5 won't burn 2nd copy

Actually I am experiencing two problems , but lets deal with #1 first.
1) After I burn the first copy of a 53 minute project with 6 chapters & two slideshows, the DVD works well & looks great. When I put in the second disc iDVD spits it out after about 20 minutes and nothing is done on it. iDVD is then frozen, with the burn menu still up. The menu claims "done", but it ain't.
I am foced to force quit iDVD, and go through the 5 hr burning process again, yuch.
2) Every other burn gives me a "multiplexing error". I've seen posts on this, but why does iDVD work some of the time , and not others?
I tried copying the good DVD with Toast ((I've done this before very successfully) but my iMAC has decided that I should be tortured, and will not let me bypass this problem claiming that there are media problems. Of course this same media works later in iDVD. AFTER 5 HOURS!!!
I am not letting this problem(s) affect my sanity , but it sure is taking a long time to produce these 6 DVD's.

Where do you purchase 4x DVD's? All I see lately are 8x.
I'm using Verbatim 1-8X (white inkjet printable), but use Toast to burn at 4X; mainly for "supposed" compatibility. Best Buy had Verbatim on sale this week locally (Chicago).
then the next one is spit out without an error message?
Inconsistent quality? Stay away from Memorex and TDK.
My reliable DVD-Rs have been: Apple 4X (Maxell ID), RiTek 4X; Verbatim 1-8X, RiData 8X, and PioData 8X, all white inkjet printable. The RiData and PioData checked out to be RiTek-made.
Verbatim is reliable and can be found in many stores in the USA. They even make a special grade for medical records.
You can buy the RiTek, RiData, and PioData at:
http://www.shop4tech.com/
Verbatim may be available in your neighborhood store or:
http://www.taperesources.com/
http://www.newegg.com/
Apple brand can be purchased from the Apple online store.
You can check the manufacturer's ID by using DVD Media Inspector: http://homepage.mac.com/raktajino/dvdmediainspector/dvdmediainspector.html
You could wade through this: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia
From that database: Five brands and who actually manufactures the DVDs:
TDK = TDK, RITEKG04, RICOHJPN, MXL, CMC, MCC
Memorex = CMC, RICOHJPN, PRODISC, INFODISC
Imation = CMC, MCC, Ritek, Prodisc
Sony = MCC 01RG20, Sony04D1, TYG01
Fuji = FUJIFILM02..4X, FUJIFILM03..8X, ProdiscF01..8x, ProdiscS03..4x, PVC001001..2x, RITEKG03..1x, TAIYOYUDEN..2x, TYG01..4x, TYG02..8x
This can result in "mixed" experiences...
My friend used TDK on his Mac and it wouldn't play in his 5 year old Sony DVD player. All of mine play OK in his "antique" Sony. Update: He finally gave up on that antique and bought a Sony DVPNS775V http://ww1.onecall.com/PID_22332.htm which also plays double-layer DVD+R.

Burning a copy of a DVD

Hi there,
I just recieved a DVD movie of my friend that he made, he has PC (don´t know if it matters, it should´nt) and I want to make a copy of that one. It is a VOB file.

But when I tried to make a normal copy it does´nt work any more in the DVD player, just in the computer...but it did´nt play directly, I had to doubleclick it first and it only worked in VLC player.
Should´nt be that huge problem to make a copy of a DVD or?

Here is an Apple Knowledge Base article that explains how to make a copy of a DVD-R video. The same instructions can be found by using the built-in Mac Help. It will lead you to the Disk Utility program and its Help has the same instructions.

By that, I assume you mean Mass Storage Mode? To my understanding, there is nothing within the Desktop Software itself for copying files in this manner. Only via Mass Storage Mode are you able to manage your BB as a USB drive.

when i open properties of the folder where i copied files to, read-only option is checked but i cannot uncheck it.
Do you have content protection and/or encryption enabled on your Media Card?
Exactly what is the file you wish to copy/move?
Can you copy it somewhere else...e.g., to your PC?

How do I burn 2 or more movies (shared from iMovies) into a single DVD

What is the easieast way? Can I do seperate titles for the movies, ie you can click on the movie you want to see?
Thanks!

One way is to export each movie from iMovie as a separate QT movie file and add that file to an iDVD menu window, making sure to avoid any drop zones in the menu. That way each movie will have it's own play button.

CAN'T BURN A COPY OF A DVD

MADE A DVD OF A LECTURE VIA FCP 4 HD AND DVDPRO3.NOW NEED ADDITIONAL COPIES AND ONLY HAVE A DVD MASTER. IT CAN BE SAVED TO DESK TOP BUT WON'T ALLOW ME TO BURN TO OTHER DVD'S THAT WILL PLAY ON TV. HELP.
THANKS

You should be able to create a disc image using Disc Utility (Applications/Utilities folder), then burn additonal copies from that. These articles may help: http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/making_dvdcopies.html and http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/multisession_burntiger.html
Toast is a very handy disc burning application avialable from Roxio: http://www.roxio.com/enu/store/mac.html I highly recommend it.

Can I copy a movie rental from my mac to my iPad?

Is it possible to share a rental movie between devises? ie: I rented a a movie on my home Mac and want to watch it outside of the house on my iPad.

I actually figured it out, and did it maybe the wrong way but it worked, hmm can't be wrong if it worked, after interfacing the 2 devises I dragged the rental to the iPad from the left menu column in iTunes and it copied it over then when I synced it transferred woithout a hiccup. When I came home since I had not finished the movie I just connected them together opened iPad>movies and there was a set of large boxes at the top right being the computer left being the iPad with the rental having a "move" arrow button that pointed to the computer box, click, sybc and moments later I was enjoying my movie on the big screen Thanks to the respondents.

Does "Transfer" copy or move/delete from old computer?

When setup assistant transfers from old computer, can I still use the old computer as before - will it still have the applications and operating system? Reading the manual nor the website archive (thanks Pondini) are clear.

It copies the data. The old computer can be used as before.

Trouble Copying and pasting a movie clip from another flash scene

Hello,
I have been trying to copy a movie clip from the library of one flash and paste it into the library of another. But when I do this, it always gives me, "One or more library items already exist in the document.
I have tried finding and renaming those items, renaming the existing movie clip, and even changing it into a graphic instead. Still it always replaces these certain movie clips in my main flash file.
I even tried the following:
Creating a new movie clip in the new file. Then going into the movie clip of the other file I wish to copy over, and trying to copy its frames and put it into the new movie clip i created in the main file. Even then, it says I'm replacing library items!
Can someone help me?
Thanks

The easiest way to be sure you are renaming everything is to probably to copy the movieclip into a new empty file's library and then rename each symbol in there. Unless I am missing something, when you do that, each isolatable symbol inside that movieclip will appear as a separate symbol in the library, making it easier to be sure you have renamed them all.

I have two external HDs, I plugged both in my iMac. I can open both but I can't copy or move from one to the other any help?

I have two external HDs, I plugged both in my iMac. I can open both, I cn move files to my mac. but I can't copy or move files from one EHD to the other EHD any help?

I assume your External HDDs are formatted in NTFS. With this format OSX can see files and copy from but cant copy or move to those devices. You need to install any third party software to enable both way copy/move feature. You can use TUXERA NTFS in OSX. It is fantastic software to solve your problem.

How can I burn an iMovie project onto DVD?

I just finished a project on iMovie. I need to burn a copy on a DVD.
IDVD does work for my needs. The old versions of iMovie had an option to burn DVDs.
So... how can one burn an DVD copy without using iDVD?
Also best program to convert file format from iMovie ... i.e. Windows computer?
