Burning ipod videos to play on dvd player

does anybody know a way or a free program i can download to burn the videos on my ipod to a dvd so i can watch it on a dvd player?
Windows XP

Are you referring to purchased videos from the iTunes music store? If so, they cannot be burned to a DVD that will play in a DVD player.
They can be burned to a data DVD which will play on computers however.

Hi Patti,
welcome to this forum
there's no such thing as "DVDVCPRO"-video-dvd.... that is just an export option in iM for.... you're short in time, forget it...
in Toast 6.1.1. (you need the latest update), choose "video" and simply drag'n drop your whole iM project (NO export needded!) into it - boom, done...
post here progress of your project, the European dayshift is awake ;-))

DVD Studio Pro will burn but will not play on dvd player.

Hi,
I have a 30 minute dvd with a menu that i burned yesterday. it will play on my mac but not our dvd player or any of our Pc's. I have a quickly approaching deadline and guidance would be appreciated.

HD DVDs will only play on Macs and a couple of now obsolete Toshiba HD DVD players.
Since DVD is a standard definition only format, you will need to create a regular DVD if you want it to play on regular DVD players or on Windows systems.

DVD SP burned disc won't play on DVD player

I recently compiled a FCP HD project into Standard Defintion 16:9 and imported it into DVD SP 4. I build, format and burned a DVD-R disc without any problems. However the disc won't play on any of the DVD players in my house (1 philips and 1 Pioneer). I checked all settings and can't find anything wrong! Remarkably, just before this I burned an older (SD 4:3) project on the same brand/type disc and that one worked flawless.
What am I missing, pleas help!

Double check to make sure you did not make an HD DVD (take a look to see what is on the disc, are the folders VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS or other name? It can happen where you think you made an SD but it is HD ) Also did you set a first play? Did you somehow make an NTSC (or PAL) and playing it on a machine that is not NTSC/PAL as applicable?
What brand media did you use? Some brands can be inconsistent...

HT1382 Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

Persius,
Nearly every DVD that will play on a set-top player *should* play on a computer, provided two things:
1.) the computer has a DVD player that can handle that flavor of DVD media, DVD RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD DL, etc.
2.) the computer has a software player installed. This feature has been removed from some common media players. You may need to locate, download and install a separate software player.
There could be another discussion on interlaced vs progressive scan media, but I'll let you ask that question.

How do I burn photos from macbook air to dvd to play on dvd player

how do I burn my photos to a dvd to be played on dvd player?

You also need to determine what kind of DVDs your player supports. My player will play discs with image files on it. Some players will even play files in mp4 format. If yours will only strictly play DVDs in DVD format then you have to author them with a tool such as iDVD (no longer sold).
If you are playing these at home you might see if you can ouptu video straight to the video device from your MBA.

FC/e is based upon the Quicktime-engine; so, on 'Export using QT', you'll get all codecs & settings.
but which one..
due to sheer popularity, YouTube became a 'standard' - I'm happy with the convenience, YT and the 'embed'-code offers - excellent quality, automatic adjusted to the watchers connection&hardware.
my export settings are 720p, h264, 6MBit/sec - gives a - imho! - superb quality.
(example of a 'screen-test' from my latest project CLICK )
for creating so-called 'flash video'/.flv, you need 3rd party apps.
Sorenson Squeeze is more of an pro-tool, .. you need some background knowledge to get noticeable 'better' quality.
.. and the question is: are you willing to pay $.$$$ for that 0.x% more quality .. ? does your source offers such a 101% quality, which needs such affords?
if bandwidth is an issue, because you're hosting on your own servers, consider the free codec xh264, you can install as a free QT-plug-in.. with low or super-low bitrates, it offers a superior quality compared to h264 ...

You would need to have burned the disc using iDVD or a third-party application such as Toast. Is that what you did?

Exported slideshow from Iphoto11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine but show stops 1/2way through because DVD has 2 chapters. How do I eliminate chapters?

I exported slideshow from Iphoto 11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine, but then when playing on DVD player show stops about 12 way and starts over. Seems there are 2 chapters in show. I wan t show to play straight through until end. How do I elimiante chapters or solve problem. Thanks. Bob Low

Try this workflow:
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 and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was 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.
Play the disk image with DVD Player and see if you get the same start over half way thru.
Did you create the slideshow in iPhoto in the slideshow mode?
or were you in an album and then used the Share ➙ iDVD menu option? What I'm trying to find out is if the slideshow in iDVD is a movie file or an iDVD slideshow with the photos from iPhoto? If it's the latter how many photos in the slideshow?

Burning ipod videos to dvds for viewing?

Is there any way to burn ipod videos onto a dvd for watching on a tv? I know there's some way to do it, but I don't know what it is. Anyone know of a program with a free trial i can find somewhere?

Videos purchased from the Itunes Store cannot be burned to DVD as they are DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected and thus locked. As with any DRM file, each has an embedded code within the file that only Apple knows. DRM locks you into where, what and how you enjoy the entertainment you paid for. You own it, but are restricted to how you use it. Hope that helps.

How do I burn dvd that will play in dvd player

How do I burn a DVD that will play in DVD player for my TV? Example, iPhoto images, Utube images, etc.

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.

Windows Movie Maker won't play on DVD player

I have the OS7 now
The instruction say that a burned MASTER disc will play on DVD players and most computers???
I have used Mp4 and WMV formats with Windows Movie Maker, but none will play on DVD players but play well on computers???
I had formally use the Windows DVD Maker and the final file was UBF which seemed to work on all players and computers. My DVD Maker will not allow completion of Movie, it notes, " I need the proper codes to make it work"??
I have looked on the Microsoft site for these support codes but cannot find them??? Windows Movie worked well on my Vista OS. What has MS done to screw up this software???

You need to read the owner's manual for your DVD player to find out exactly what video formats it will play. Then you must ensure you record your video to DVD in a format that is recognized by your DVD player. The Windows 7 Windows Movie Maker
may have a different default video format output that what you were using in Vista. You have the option to specify the format of the video you record to DVD.

Audio doesn't play in DVD player

Hello,
First post here, so be gentle.
When I burn a DVD, there is no sound when I play it on my dvd player. It plays fine when played on my Mac.
Here is what is going on:
1. capture HD video in imovie 06.
2. add chapters, no external audio or photos
3. export to idvd
4. check video in idvd, all looks good, includes audio
5. burn dvd
6. when burn is complete, play in DVD player
results:
No sound when playing video.
I am not sure where to go next, I will try another DVD player this evening. When creating a DVD with the exact same setup but not HD content, everything worked fine.
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Bill

If it plays OK in your Mac, iDVD 'has done its thing'.
Not all set top like writable media - this might be your problem.
More likely, your problem involves a high level of burn errors resulting from low quality media and/or a high burn speed. Instead of going directly from iDVD to writable media, create a disk image file (an option under FILE). Use Apple's DVD Player to verify the mounted (by double-clicking on the disk image icon), then use Apple's Disk Utility or Roxio's Toast to burn the disk image to writable media. Use good quality media (Maxell or Verbatim) and burn at a low speed (4x or slower).

How do I import video from an external DVD player?

I got married yesterday! The DVD of the ceremony is 3". Won't play in the iMac. What kind of cable do I need to convert the output of a standard DVD player (which does play it) into USB input for the iMac?
Thanks!

Congratulations... but should you really be posting on Internet sites this soon??
I'm with J D on the best solution however to directly answer your question the solution is the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid (link) which as well as providing an S-Video/Composite Video to USB adaptor also turns your iMac in to a Digital TV/TV Recorder.
The USB conversion will likely be lower quality than if you use an external DVD drive and OpenShiiva (link); which converts DVD to mp4 (mp4 can be imported to iMovie if you need that or converted for iPod etc).
Otherwise MtR as suggested just copies the DVD contents to hard disk and can be played in DVD Player.

Burn HD Video to a Normal DVD

Hi All,
I Wish to know that how to burn the HD Video to a normal DVD to playback the video on a normal dvd player? Thanks.

As Shane Says...
Compressor should automatically determine the aspect ratio...
If you go in and change the mpeg quality settings to be higher, you'll probably have issues on DVD playback (your DVD play will choke)
When you go to make your DVD, set the aspect ratio to 16:9. here is a tutorial on how to do that: http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/16-9_dvdsp_setup_stone.html
