Burning Discs from iMac

What additional software is required on iMac to burn discs? Now using
OS10.3.9 with IMAC500/IN/128/20/CD/ULTRA/56K/FW/VG-USA

Just a note.
Mac Soft ware is very usable and works.
Some users however find it harder and a little cumbersome to learn and use.
Compared to Roxio's Toast 7or8 or Popcorn.
Here is the link on Apple Burning Quick assist.

These should help.

Can't burn disc from Encore

Everytime I try and burn a Blu-ray disc from encore, it burns 15.43GB of 16.07GB then fails? Can anyone help me please?

I've actually managed to find a solution that works. I built the project as a disc image which was successful, then opened a new project in Encore and created the project as "disc image"
and then clicked build and it worked fine. Thank you all guys for your help, it is very much appreciated

Can't burn Disc from iTunes after Microsoft fix

Okay ... long process to get iTunes working and I am almost there. Here is the saga ...
I upgraded to iTunes 6.0 and after the upgrade neither of my CD/DVD drives would work. After surfing the internet, I found the solution on Microsoft.com, which was to delete some specific upper and lower filters from the registry and then reboot the computer. I did this and everything worked great. I was able to use iTunes and both my CD/DVD drives worked. But now .... I cannot burn any discs from iTunes, (I can burn from other places), it says,"cannot find recording disc" It will let me upload CDs into iTunes. Here is my CD diagnostics:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

Failed loading CD / DVD drives, error -43. Try doing a repair install on iTunes from the "Add or Remove Programs" control panel.
The last failed audio CD burn had error code -128(0xffffff80). It happened on drive on -128(0xffffff80) media at speed 0X.

hi TwinMom!
hmmmm. was this the solution you used?
(MS) CD-ROM access is missing and messages cite error Code 31, Code 32, Code 19, Code 39, or Code 41 after you remove Easy CD Creator in Windows XP
i've seen a few follow up problems after applying that technique ... but usually they tend to involve this error message:
"Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs & DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes."
what you're getting is still consistent with that (in a sense), because you don't have any itunes-related filter entries showing up in your diagnostics.
so, let's start trying some techniques that have a reasonable track record against that error -43 that's showing up in your CD diagnostics.
first, try a reboot and repair. reboot the PC (very important), and then do a repair install of itunes. go to your Add/Remove programs, select itunes, click "change/remove" and then select "repair".
does that get rid of the -43?
can you burn a CD after doing that?
love, b

PE8: Can't burn disc from work area only?

Am I blind? I can't seem to find anywhere an option that will let me burn a disc from the work area only... is it there somewhere?
I see that option for sharing to the web, but not when burning a disc.
I have six hours of material on the timeline and was hoping to burn three discs, but PE8 is telling me that I don't have enough disc space for all 6 hours. Well, duh, I know that, so I was planning on moving the work area over what I wanted to burn, like you can do in PrePro. No go in PE8?

Because of a major difference between PrE and PrPro, Sequences, there are things that can be done in PrPro, that PrE cannot do.
Back in PrPro 2.0, one could Burn to DVD directly. That has not been possible, as of CS3. From there on, one had to either Export/Import from PrPro to Encore, or use Adobe Dynamic Link (strengthened and improved in CS4), to author a DVD/BD.
Steve's suggestion is the best - use the WAB to Export the segments that are required per DVD, and then do separate Projects for each. Import each DV-AVI that has been Exported, via the WAB, and then just Burn to DVD, for each one. It's two more steps, but gets the job done neatly.
Good luck,
Hunt

Burning discs from playlist

since i updated i tunes yesterday i can't seem to burn discs. normally would create playlist and burn from there. however burn disc button no longer there only the genius icon is! tried searching round toolbar to see if burn option has moved but cannot locate.

it seems that it has something to do with the registry..do you get a warning error message when opening itunes?> "Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." if that is the problem follow these instructions here> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3299 >from 1 thru 14.< just leave itunes installed and follow thru, make sure when you go to question 11 and 12 drop them down and follow until you reach 14 to restart. well if thats the case..

Burning disc from DVD player

I would like to burn copies of a DVD video. How should I copy the DVD onto a file before inserting a blank DVD into my optical drive?

Then you can use a aftermarket program for direct Disc Copy function or use Disk Utility to make a DMG of it then burn/restore that DMG to another disc. Do a google search for "Create DMG image from DVD disc with Disk Utility" and then "Restore DMG image to DVD disc with Disk Utility". I'm sure there will be many sites that have instructions.

Burning disc from iphoto includes faces

I burned a disc in iphoto 09 and when viewed it shows the original picture then shows close up of everyones face, can I stop iphoto from doing this?

When you burn disk using the Share -> Burn command iPhoto creates a mini-iPhoto Library on the disk. This is designed for sharing with other iPhoto users and backing up.
If you want a simple disk of jpegs to share with anyone: File -> Export nd export the pics to a folder on the desktop. Burn that with the Finder. Result: a disk full of your photos only.

Cannot eject disc from iMac (physical problem not software)

*Problem description*: When my iMac attempted eject a disc I could hear a thump and feel the disc hitting something on the case after which it would give up and reload the disc. The cause of this problem was a misalignment of the drive with the slot on the case. This in turn was caused because the front and the body of the iMac (the back part) had sprung apart a bit.
*Problem solution*: The solution was to squeeze the front and body together by placing my hand on the upper right corner of the iMac with the palm on the front and the fingers on the body. I could feel the bezel and body press back together with a very mild snap. After that there were no more problems with ejecting discs.
Comments: I move my iMac around a bit and assume the the separation of front from back happened during transport.

1. Click on Finder or your Desktop and with Finder on the Menu Bar open Finder Preferences. Next click on the Sidebar tab in Finder Preferences and make sure that (CDs, DVDs and iPods) is checked.
2. Also check the General tab if you would like these things to also show up on your Desktop.
Lastly you should also be able to Eject CDs & DVDs using the Eject button on the Menu Bar.

How to eject disc from iMac with no power

Burning disc from itunes to A dvd to play in our dvd player on tv?

I have Imovie 08 and am trying to put some movies on disc to watch as a family I did this a long time in an older version of Imovie but I can't remember how to do this, or if it is even the same way...

If you have shared your movies to iTunes, They are likely in the Media Browser as well.
Open iDVD. Then click on the Media Browser at the lower right of the iDVD window. Navigate to the movies you want and drag them into the iDVD project.
A good resource is the iMovie and iDVD HELP menus. They will have a link to some video tutorials.

Burning discs on new iMac

I'm having problems burning discs on my new iMac Intel G5. When I try burning discs from iDVD, the disc ejects and I get a message telling me to put in a recordable DVD. I've tried resetting the NVRAM and SMU. I've tried Sony and Memorex discs. Once I got it to work but it took 1 hour to burn an iMovie that had about 5 slides in it.
However, it does burn to disc when dragging photos or documents to the DVD and then burning the Disc. It also burnt a disc straight from iMovie but for the 5 slides it took about 30 minutes.
I'm using the same discs I used on my old G5 Power PC machine. I took it to an authorized Apple dealer and they said nothing was wrong with it.
Any ideas?

I got the DVD burning to work. I tried some different discs and found that the +R seems to work better. I purchased some new Maxwell +Rs and some new Memorex -Rs. I got both to work however the -Rs seemed to have taken longer to burn. I tried some Panasonic -Rs and they worked. I tried a Maxwell RW and it worked.
I also had tried Sony -Rs and some other Memorex -Rs and they didn't work. The computer kept telling me to put in recordable DVDs. These were new DVDs and I couldn't get them to work. They worked in my older iMac G5 non intel machine.
My conclusion is that the DVD player in the new iMac isn't as forgivable as the DVD player in the older G5. I never had trouble with that DVD player rejecting anything.
Thanks Don for your input on buring software. I'm going to look into getting either Toast or Popcorn. Any opinions on which is the best? Do these software packages create an initial screen like iDVD does along with chapters and themes?
