Do you mean rip/duplicate your purchased DVDs to a format to use with media manager? If so, I believe the answer is no. Duplicating most of the commercially purchased DVD content is a violation of copy write laws. There is a lot of software that will allow this to be done, but it does not make it legal.
I have found software that will play the VOB files, but have not found any that will support the indexing of the VIDEO_TS.IFO. I do not believe that Media Manager will support the file formats. I believe you can rename the VOB extension and they may play, but due to the legality of it, I did not pursue the issue.
I wish they were as easy to manage as MP3s and regular Audio files since you did purchase the right to view them. Thank bootleggers and Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Even flex view has some sort of copy protection. I have not purchased any or looked into it. I would prefer to have a DVD in my hand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPAA
Some DVD do have a digital versions that can be played on smald portables, but usually in a smaller screen size and reduced resolution. This is due to file space limitations on many portables.

How do I know what speed the burner support?

It would be great if anyone answer and make the drive burn some discs.

At first it will be interesting to see why you cannot create recovery discs.
Have you used empty DVD-R media? If not please use it and buy some high quality product like Verbatim or TDK.
Is there option to create recovery USB stick?

No sound when playing burned DVD with Windows Media Player

Hello!
I made a 10 minute movie which I burned , tested and delivered today.
But it turns out that when playing the DVD with WMP, there is no sound.
I had tested the movie playing it with powerDVD, and it worked as it should. When playing it with a normal DVD player and TV it works allright.
But I had not tested it with WMP. And sure enough, when playing it with WMP there is no sound!
The ones who will show the DVD will do it from a computer to a video projector, and maybe they don't have a "proper" DVD program installed. But I heard that there was sound when playing with "VLC" which is a relief.
But I feel the need to get to the bottom of why there is no sound with WMP? Any clues?

In NTSC-land, one has but two choices: PCM/WAV or DD AC3, which is a particular "flavor" of MPEG. In PAL-land, one does have the option of MPEG (not DD AC3) as an option, but that seems to be falling out of favor.
When MS was re-tooling WMP, they wanted to add back the functionality of commercial (pressed/replicated) DVD's, but sought to limit any burned DVD's. Do not know what the mindset is now, so much could have changed with a few iterations of WMP. I have to admit that I just do not reach for it that often.
In the Project, or Disc, menus, one can tell En which Audio Transcoding to use. As John T, suggests, I would definitely do a test with PCM/WAV, and X my fingers.
If your client(s) is/are set on WMP as the player, there is hopefully a scheme that you can get to work. Also, remember that some older versions of WMP might not play the DVD at all, unless one finds the right plug-in, that basically hacked the intended setup in those older versions. Just like when delivering to a client, and not knowing their systems' calibration, or setup, trying to cover every base in a particular player software might involve a lot of work, and prayer.
Good luck,
Hunt

Burning DVD-RL discs

Anyone successfully burned DVD-RL discs with the iMac? I'm using Toast 8.0.1 and running Leopard and so far my failure rate has been 100%. The discs fail at different places with different errors with both hardware and verify errors.

I'm not familiar with "DVD-RL" -- and don't see it mentioned on any iMac spec sheet.
If you meant "DVD-R DL", it wasn't supported by the built-in "superdrive" until the most recent generation ALU iMacs. See the thread linked below for more details:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1196774
BTW, my 20" white iMac burns "DVD+R DL" media with no problem (but only at 2.5x speed, as specified).

What format shiould i burn dvd in to play in blueray player? Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake

what format should i burn dvd in to play in blueray player? Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake

MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake
Neither is suitable for burning DVDs or BluRay media. They are DVD rippers/converters, not DVD authoring tools. Handbrake doesn't produce any format suitable for DVD Authoring. And while MacDVD Ripper can create .mov files even that's not a guarantee the file can be used for DVD authoring. You need DVD Authoring software like Roxio Toast to burn DVDs or BluRay disks.
Most BluRay players can play both standard def DVDs and high def BluRay disks. Which kind do you want to burn? And what exactly is your source media (video) that you want to burn?
And if you want to burn BluRay disks, you need a BluRay burner.

Media Manager & Blu-ray

I have searched the forum for an answer to this but have not found one yet....
Is there any way to watch my blu-ray dvd's with media manager? I have a blu-ray in my computer but not hooked up to my TV... Is this even possible with Media Manager?
Thanks!!

Blu-ray uses extensive HDCP and will not even play the video on your computer if you do not have the proper video card, or the card does not sense the proper display device. So there is no way to access the vidoe for transmission over the network.
So in short, NO.
You may want to try and hook your PC to the TV, if your TV will support it. Some 720p TVs can not run the desired higher resolution, but if you have 1020 is should work well. I have that configuration and it alows me to do may things in addition to viewing my Blu-ray discs.

Burning DVD problem with DVD media

Hi,
Hopefully someone can help me. I bought a Mac Mini and tried now to burn DVDs, with no success.
I used R- (Bulkpaq 4 X) and also Datawrite (R-, 4X), which I used in the past with my LiteOn external writer.
Unfortunate, both DVDs are not correctly recognized by the drive. Finder, Dragon Burn and Burnz writing to the DVD with 2X (instead of 4X). However this prevents that the dics are readable after burning.
I’m wondering if this is a drive or media problem and if anyone else had the same problem. If a media problem, than any recommendation what kind of media to use would be helpful.
yours frank

To rule out media issues I would recommend that you try either Verbatim or Apple branded media. Unfortunately DVD drives that are designed for laptops, which the mini has, tend to be a bit more finicky with the media you use.

What can I do to correct this error: The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. The drive works fine when I burn a CD using Media Player.

What can I do to correct this error: 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. I have reinstalled several times but it hasn't changed this error message. Why am I able to burn a CD using Media Player but not iTunes? I am using Windows XP and I have burned cds from iTunes in the past.

1: Follow this support doc to completly remove iTunes (your files remain)

Burn two or more LiveCD's in DVD +R/W media

How might say, Knoppix3.4, PCLinuxOSv8, Knoppix3.7, and archLiveCD be burned onto one DVD+R/W?
I have yet to try to do it being very confused about the DVD+R/W differences in media and vendor burners.
I cannot determine from published googles on the subject of growisofs and DVD+R/W whether I can add to a given burned DVD of KnoppixLiveCD (600MB+) and if it can be done, how to proceed.
Anyone "been there, done that"?

I have exactly the same problem as T43owner.
However, I do not know of anyone that owns the same machine with the same MAT**bleep**A DVD-RAM UJ-822S installed in it.
I also doubt that my HW is still under Warranty.
Although I will say that the only problems I have ever had with my Lenovo T43 has been with this same DVD Drvie as noted by my only other Posts in this forum.
The only other comments I can add to what T43owner did was to check my System Event Viewer which would show the following Event Error:
Source: cdrom
Category: None
Event ID: 11
Description: The driver detected a controller error on \Device\CdRom0.
I did click on the Support Link which initially said that the Event ID could be caused by a faulty cable connecting the drive to the laptop. I tried several of the suggestions but still have the problem.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,
Can you please tell us your operating system and why you want to burn them to CD.
For example, on a Windows system, if you just want to save a copy of the images to CD then you could use the organizer. Select the images you want to copy, go to the File menu and select Copy/Move to Removable Drive. Do NOT check the Move option as this would the remove the images from the hard drive.

Media Management & Duplicating DVDs

I would like a way to be able to duplicate original DVDs I create for clients (should they ask for additional copies in the future) without having to use DVD Studio Pro and thus having to leave all of my compressor files on my hard drive. Is there a way to make a quality copy from an already burned DVD? Trying to figure a best practice for archiving client projects without taking up space on the computer. Not sure what the best way to do this is and would appreciate your ideas.
(I did do a quick search on the forums and didn't come up with much.)
Thanks very much in advance,
Debbie

This is a good way to do it (comes up all the time)
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html
As an aside if you are doing work for clients it is never a bad idea to keep assets on another hard drive in case you need to get to them for whatever reason. With the cost of hard drives so low in the grand scheme of things it is worth it. Of course situations vary, but it comes down to dollars and cents of your time.
Also as an aside the AUDIO_TS folder is empty, but is usually a good idea to keep in when using Toast or otherwise. There was some debate as to whether not having it on a DVD would impact players (particularly older ones) and if not having it on the DVD would cause playback issues. Since it takes up no room, I am of the camp of putting it on.

HD DVD Media Manager for Mac's

Does anyone know if they will support software for Mac's?

That would be really nice if they did. I was abbout to push the buton for the Media Manager a few weeks ago so we could manage our DVR through the web and saw it said "Windows only." I sent a question about it to Support and got back boilerplate about "how to tell if your Windows PC has a virus" and "why is the internet connection slow on my PC?". useless...

Can't burn DVDs? Try this first...

Like a number of other folks, I had an unexplained failure to burn DVDs and thought something Very Bad had happened to my drive. However, doing some research before buying a new drive (if I had to buy one, might as well get the Latest and Greatest right?) I found there's a lot of really bad media out there. Companies are buying some really cheap junk, slapping their label on it, and putting it on the shelves.
So before doing anything drastic, try this:
Go to Applications -> Utilities and start "System Profiler".
In System Profiler, left hand column (labeled "contents") click "Disc Burning".
Insert a disk you haven't been able to burn.
When (sometimes "if") the disc mounts, refresh System Profiler (command-R or from the View menu select "Refresh"). At some point, you should get something like this:
Media:
Type: DVD-R
ID: CMC MAG. AM3
Blank: No
Erasable: No
Overwritable: No
Appendable: No
Pay attention to the ID field. In this case, "CMC MAG. AM3"
Pop over to:
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
And search for your disc ID. This likely is "all run together". That is, for "CMC MAG. AM3", you look for:
CMCMAGAM3
And, presto, the discs my drive "quit" on are listed in the section:
"4TH CLASS MEDIA:
"Pathetic garbage media, landfill material, about 0-50% success rate. These discs are pretty much only suited for preventing drink cup rings from forming on a table. Most of the time, these are ready-made coasters. If you can actually get a burner to acknowledge the disc, do not expect much. And if the burn actually succeeds, do not be surprised if a DVD-ROM or player chokes on the disc (read/play errors). Cheap prices, cheap junk quality."
How nice!
Mind you, I did not buy "CMC Magnetics" discs. I bought a "brand name". I got CMC Magnetics discs with a "brand name" label. And, apparently, their lowest quality (they do have some listed as "3rd Class Media" but not the ones I have).
This would also explain why I managed to get several burns from the spindle then everything just up and stopped. A "0-50% success rate" means I can expect half *or more* of the discs to fail. I managed about 30% before reaching a run of total garbage in the spindle.
(In fact, many of the remaining discs--I've taken different ones out of the spindle at random--won't even mount.)
Also, the fact that companies are "out sourcing" means that even though you may have tried different "brands", you may actually still be getting discs from the same crappy factory! Scroll down to "Branding Guide" at the digitalfaq.com site and you find that CMC is supplying (among many):
Datawrite, HP, Maxell, Memorex, Staples, and some TDK even!
Buying different "brands" doesn't necessarily mean you've bought different discs.
So before doing anything drastic, before assuming the drive has konked out, buy some one packs or three packs of the "1st Class Media" and try them. I haven't a problem with the ones I bought from companies listed as providing "1st Class Media".
Based on the "Branding Guide", I suggest buying a few from one or more of:
Verbatim
Sony
Panasonic
Then see if your drive problem suddenly clears up. Did for me. Now to figure out what to do with the 60+ CMC coasters I have left...

If Disk Utility in 10.4 doesn't do it, there are two things I've seen that could help though I cannot vouch for them. One is a little utility here:

Now, that's a Google translated page in Japanese. But I could find no other widgets out there that read the info. I did download the program from here:
http://homepage.mac.com/raktajino/dvdmediainspector/dvdmediainspector-1.0b1.dmg
And tried it out. It worked for me. Just leave the "Format" setting to: Pre-recorded Information in Lead-in. Insert a disk, click on the drive name in the top box of the window when the name appears (takes a sec as the disk is mounted). You get hex (which to most folks is known as "gibberish" <g>). But in the first couple of lines on the right hand side, you should see the manufacturer info such as:
read DVD structure [0E]
00 6C 00 00 01 40 C1 FD 9E D8 52 00 02 84 0D 12 [email protected].....

41 4D 33 00 05 88 80 00 00 00 02 00 06 09 0D 14 AM3.............
Second line, far right, you see the "CMC MAG AM3" (with some spaces in "MAG", no I don't know why). Of course, you'll be looking for codes from here:
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
They should show up somewhere in those first few lines.
According to this discussion:

You can get the info in Toast. I can't verify that myself as I don't have the software.

MacBook Pro burn DVD failed even after installing Leopard 10.5.2

Ever since upgrading from Tiger to Leopard my 17in MacBook Pro has failed to burn DVDs.
It managed to burn a couple discs after the upgrade, but soon proceeded to give various error messages whenever I have attempted to burn a DVD. The most common error is:
+Burning the disc failed because communication to the disc drive failed. (Error code 0x80020022)+
This is when using "Burn folders" to write large folders/files onto DVD (+3gig). It always fails about halfway through the disc, so if I write smaller folders it will often complete successfully. CD-Rs generally burn fine too.
I have tried various media and burning apps to no avail.
*I was hoping Leopard Update 10.5.2 would fix this issue, but alas it has not!*
Before I installed the update I had also unsuccessfully tried various solutions offered in this forum, such as resetting the PRAM and creating a new user account.
I would greatly appreciate anyone's insights, solutions or plan of action to resolve this issue. This is my first Mac (a rather expensive investment here in South Africa) and it has been awesome using it up until this point!

and look below link...
3 month past ... but not have any solution ...
we can't burn DVD still ...
