Burning images to a dvd

I'm new to Apple and Aperture and I have tried to burn some full resolution edited images to a DVD.
I have edited images in aperture and with NIK software. As a result I have two versions, the original and the edited version. I have rated the original image as 3 star, to show I am working on the image, and 5 star for the edited version.
I then filtered to a 5 star rating to select the edited version only and dragged them across to a DVD. They burned onto the DVD but all as low resolution images. How do I get Full resolution images onto a dvd?
Help please.
Terry

and dragged them across to a DVD
Terry, if you drag from the Aperture Browser window to a folder in the Finder you export the Preview image of the edited version, not the full resolution version.
To export the full resolution version select your images in the Browser and use the "File" menu:
     File -> Export
and select an export preset with "original size" in the name.

  • Cannot burn and erase rewritable DVDs

    Hi all,
    two month ago I ordered the new MacBook Pro 13" (early 2011). Some days later I wanted to erase a rewritable DVD to burn an iDVD project I just finished. I tried to erase the DVD with the hard drive program that comes with every mac, but the status doesn't change, it's always saying to "prepare" the erasure. After some minutes it stops and a message saying that the disk has been successfully erased appears. Ejecting and inserting the DVD makes all files visible again, the optical drive made nothing.
    It's nearly the same with burning DVDs (I tried several programs). In iDVD, he "prepares" the burning for some minutes, and afterwards, a message declares the DVD as successfully burned. Ejecting and inserting the disk - NOTHING happened, there are no files on the disk.
    I tried several brands, no improvement. I have absolutely no problems with CDs, no difference whether I use +R/-R or +RW/-RW disks. And the technical details of my MacBook Pro also say that burning rewritable DVDs is no problem.
    Thanks for possible solutions and ideas,
    jalfke
    Technical details:
    MacBook Pro series 13" early 2011 (the "newest" one)
    Intel Core i5 @ 2,3 GHz
    4 GB RAM
    500 GB HDD
    Optical Drive: MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-898

    Sorry for the bad information, the program I mean is die "Disk Utility" in Programs -> Utilities. Erase and burn images on rewritable DVDs should be possible with this utility. I have absolutely no problems with "only-once"-writable DVDs.

  • Burning several disk images in one DVD

    Is it possible to bun 2 disk images on a DVD? I tried in DU but if both .img are selected,"Burn" is greyed.
    Alternatively, how can I combine 2 disk images into one, so that DU will accept to burn it?
    I found the following advice a Forum:
    A .dmg file is a disk image, and can be treated like any other disk. You can copy the contents of one into another, or make a new blank image and copy their contents into that.
    I did that, but, as I said, DU doesn't agree
    Those disk images contain home videos which have been edited in iMovie 5, but cannot be burned in iDVD because my Mac mini has no DVD burner. So I create a disk image in iDVD and use DU -> Images -> burn on an external burner.
    Also, is it possible to rename a DVD? For some reason the latest DVD is bearing the same name as the DVD burned just before it.

    your whole topic is Finder-related, MacOs allows/supports simple drag'n drop...
    your both .imgs exist at some location of your Mac, right?
    no app needed nor running...
    insert an empty dvd-r
    your Mac will ask you what to do...
    you do: drag'n drop both .img files onto disk...
    hit the burn button in disk's window..
    no step 3), boom! done..

  • Burning multiple disk images onto a dvd

    I made successful disk images created from DVs of short Ken Burns imovie projects. I then burnt them using disk utility. However, these were burnt onto indivdual disks and I got the idea that it would be a good if I could link the images together and burn them onto one dvd disk. However, this does not seem to be possible as I can't see a way of creating chapter markers now that I no longer have the original DVs, and although I got the image files onto a disk by dragging them on, (disk utility wouldn't allow me to select more than one image at a time), the disk won't open on the television dvd player and therefore it can't be played.
    I'm therefore assuming that what I'm trying to achieve isn't possible?
    Thanks,
    June

  • Movie clips in iDVD won't burn to disc image or a DVD

    I created an iDVD project with a slide show created in iPhoto and some movie clips I took with a digital camera that were also in iPhoto. It works great in iDVD preview. When I burn a disc image or a DVD, the movie clips don't play while the slideshow is fine. There is also the clue in the menu of the project (only on the disc image or DVD, not the iDVD preview) that the printing of the names of the movie clips is clearly lighter than the name of the slideshow. During the burning to disc or DVD, one can see the movie clips supposedly being encoded and no error messages occur. This is a birthday present. Help, please.

    It's become a moot point. It turns out that while I could navigate with the mouse with respect to the slide show (on both the disc image and the DVD I burned), I had to use the arrows and enter key to navigate and activate the movie clips. Once I figured out to use the arrow keys/enter key rather than the mouse, everything worked okay. Thanks for trying to help me!

    Hi,
    Unfortunately you can create only 1 set of recovery media.
    Copying and burning the recovery USB to DVD and then using DVD to do system recovery will not work.
    What you can do is back up all your data to an external drive. Do a Factory Reset with the Recovery USB to get back all the partitions including the recovery partition into the HDD.

  • Poor image quality after DVD is burned.

    Hi,
    Project is fine in FCP and in iDVD before burn but when the burned dvd is played some of the images have lines or large pixels. The large pixels are very obvious in bright or white shots. Haven't had any other problems with the Mac for 4 years.
    Any suggestions or solutions?
    Thanks

    Hi
    a. Can it be so that Your movie is in PAL (25fps) and iDVD in NTSC (29.97fps)
    No good way to do it - I use JES_Deinterlacer to convert
    b. I do from FinalCut Pro 6
    • Export out as a QuickTime .mov file
    • Not selfcontained (not important but saves time and space)
    • NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION - IMPORTANT !
    This file I import into iDVD
    Else read my list on DVD-Quality
    1. iDVD 08 & 09 has three levels of qualities.
    iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality (movies up to 120 min.) - BEST
    • Best Performances (movies less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    2.Video from
    • FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not selfcontaining, no conversion)
    • iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
    when the movie includes photos. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
    • iMovie’08 not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
    3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly eg x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09 this can also be set)
    This can also be done with (Apple) Disk Util tool.
    4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
    use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc).
    5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
    6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW)
    7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
    8. Don’t burn more than three DVD at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while befor next batch.
    iDVD quality also depends on.
    • HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx 25Gb.
    less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
    • What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
    other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
    Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
    strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
    Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
    • What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
    (If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JESDeinterlacer3.2.2 do the conversion)
    (Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
    (US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
    (EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
    UNLESS. They are plabacked by a Mac - then You need not to care
    • What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
    • How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
    Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
    Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
    Best / High Performances (most often my choise before Pro Quality)
    1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
    (x4 by some and may be even better)
    2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
    Region codes.
    iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
    DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
    1 = US
    2 = EU

    What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
    I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
    I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
    For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario

    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.

  • DVD burn image remains after unburnt dvd ejected

    I was burning photos to a DVD but the process failed [bad disk] so it was ejected unburnt and is now recycled plastic.  The Finder now has no way to remove this icon in the side bar or in Disk Utility without reinserting the missing disk.  Is there a way round this?  Disk Utility itself seems unable to assist, nor 'Help'.  The Superdrive still accepts other disks to read or burn, so is working OK.  Cheers, Bill

    Hey, i think if there could be any of the possibilities you talk about, it might have been a naming error. All files i created had the same name in the new project as in the old one. But i used 1 asset arrow that i copy pasted from a library button "Red facets button" and shift pasted on my own buttons as highlight (paste sub picture). In the first project i did not do this as a straight forward thing, a lot of deleting and adding because i had never done it before and there might have happened something with the naming of the arrow i pasted. I used the same arrow in the second project but without messing with delete, paste all the time. But some how there is no problems now, just something wrong with the last project file =S
    Not so important:
    I also noticed while building the new project i once got an "General error", not sure why but happened after a random crash. And 2 get rid of it i had to delete the menu and make it again (i could not edit anything in the menu without getting the error). I rebuild the menu and had another crash when exiting the program, because i thought my computer needs to boot after 2 days online. When i reopened the project i got "General error" in the menu again, but after some clicking it didn't show up (random). Finally i got my project setup and everything works, i did the copy past as sub picture as a straight forward thing.

  • Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • Burning your movie to DVD , slow !

    so i have been making lots of home movies, you know the kids parties sort of thing... i finish my editing , and proudly go to burn it onto a DVD for parents and wife etc etc
    1hr 45 mins MIN time !!!!!!
    am i doing something wrong or is this normal ?
    i have a MBP 2.16 ghz

    After it's finished, you can save and quit, and the video will be encoded when you open iDVD to burn your project.
    That is exactly what is done when the project is saved 'as disk image' so that the project is preserved, ready to be burned (using Disk Utility). Saves on disks, allows you to see if there are any problems before attempting the actual burn.
    Also, it worked that way recently for me while making said disk image. The power failed for about a second...just enough to make the mac restart. I thought, oh, great, just as it was nearly finished with the creation of the disk image. It probably had about 3min to go. I figured I had just lost about 6 hours and would have to start the encoding all over again. So, I opted to 'save as disk image' again, and it started with the rendering of the menus and then suddenly 'encoding video' began at the very place it had left off. I was highly skeptical of the resultant disk image, but it took only about 5 min and I had the entire DVD project on the disk image! The burned DVDs were perfect! I had no idea that a power failure would do anything but cause all work to be deleted and necessitate redoing it. What a nice surprise!

  • Burning Flash movie to DVD

    Hi
    I am creating a flash animation to be projected. I have to burn in onto a dvd. I have tried converting the .mov file that flash exports, and flv to mpeg. The preview looks fine, but every time the dvd quality is terrible. I have tried HD, h. 264, NTSC. I have also tried converting a .swf to mpeg with no luck.
    I am using flash CS5.
    Please help.
    I was wondering if I try to burn the html file that flash creates to DVD, would that work? Or should I try exporting the image sequence and put it back together in another program such as Final Cut or imovie? Should I use something other than Encore to convert the files?

    It's strange that a dvd would be so problematic, especially since it is not a long movie, it has no complicated video or images.
    See Jim's suggestion.
    DVD is TV, not computer; the specs that determine how DVDs behave on DVD players are very exacting. But primarily, you are no longer creating flash for computer, but for TV/DVD. Follow those rules and you'll get what you are after.

  • How do I burn a CD or DVD w/photos from iPhoto

    Lost my photos and spent over 2 hours w/Apple Support getting them back into my iPhoto --- but, now I want to burn them on a CD or DVD to have them as back-up (I was walked through the process w/support, but after that and many other things done -- there were no photos on the CD afterall) My Macbook is OS 10.4. I think since there are so many (1900+) I would need a DVD. I have some which say DVD-RW...Video/photos data/4X2hr. Is this what I need? Specific instructions would be nice. The Apple Support person sent me a link -- but it was for 10.5 -- DUH.

    HI Grandie,
    First, I'm glad Apple was able to locate your photos on the drive and get them right back into iPhoto where they belong!
    Second... does your MacBook have a SuperDrive? It must have one in order to burn to a DVD. To locate this information click the Apple logo top left in your Desktop, then click About This Mac, then click More Info. That will open your System Profiler. When that window opens, go to the Menu at the top and click: View/Full Profile. On the left side it will say: Contents. Look under that category and find where it says: Disk Burning and click that once.
    The information for your disk burning capabilities will be listed on the right. It will give you the information. I'm sure you have CD burning, but make sure you have DVD. It will say: DVD-R
    ** I can't burn a CD or DVD ** <-- from the iPhoto Help Menu
    To create CDs with iPhoto, you must have a supported CD-RW (CD Recordable, Read-Write) drive. All Apple internal CD-RW drives work with iPhoto. Use Apple System Profiler to check if your optical drive has CD-burning capability or to see if a connected external CD/DVD drive is supported.
    To create DVDs with iPhoto, you must have a supported DVD-R.
    You can use CD-R or CD-RW discs to create CDs. CD-R discs must be blank to burn pictures onto them. You cannot reuse or erase a CD-R disc that already has files on it. If a CD-RW disc is not blank, you must erase it before you can put other files on it. Search Mac Help in the Finder's Help menu for information on erasing CD-RW discs.
    If your computer or monitor goes to sleep while burning a CD or DVD, you might encounter problems with the disc or with iPhoto. To keep your system from going to sleep, increase the sleep timing settings in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences. Search for "saving energy" in Mac Help for information about changing these settings.
    If your burn is unsuccessful and your external drive becomes unresponsive, turn its power off and on to reset the drive.
    * Media that seems to be the best compatible is Maxell, Fuji, and Sony *
    I'm wondering if you are trying to burn too many images at one time. Create a new burn playlist in iPhoto, drag about 20 images to that playlist from the Library. Then go to the Menu and click:
    Share/Burn Disk.
    I believe CD media can handle up to 700MB of space. Say each of your images is approximately 3MB... times 20 images = 60MB... it can add up FAST. Try one and see if it works... if not,
    post back and we'll keep troubleshooting...
    One more thing... never touch the disks with your fingers. Hold the disks on the edge only. Look for fingerprints. If there are any, wipe them off with a clean lint free cloth from the inside of the disk out.. not in circles.

  • Burning DMG File To DVD

    I am trying to burn Adobe CS4 dmg file to DVD as a back up. The size is 6.9GB so I am using a Dual Layered DVD which is at least 8GB. For some reason when I try to burn the dmg to DVD I get a message saying "disk doesn't have enough space. Am I doing something wrong? Here are the steps I took...
    1) Inserted blank DVD
    2) Added DMG file to Disk Utility
    3) Highlighted DMG file within Disk Utility and chose the burn option from the menu
    This method has worked previously with a 6GB dmg file of iLife using the same exact blank Dual Layered DVD. Also, FYI I am running 10.5.5 Thanks for any help. It's greatly appreciated.

    Are you expanding the DMG (you don't want to)? Incidentally, the iLife copy is different than what you are doing. Are you trying to copy the CS4 disk? If so, DU can make an image for you, of the disk. Make certain you save it as a "master", not "encrypted", or any other choice. Then, as you explain, select it, and hit burn.
