Burning more than two DVDs in a row impossible?

Hi,
I have a rather big project that needs a DVD DL to fit on one disc. Following the instructions in the iDVD help, I'd like to make several copies directly from iDVD without using a disk image because burning from a disk image does not comply with the standards for a DVD DL.
My problem: Encoding takes a long time. After burning the first disk, iDVD prompts me to insert another one to burn on so you don't have to do the encoding again. When about five minutes are left to finish this second disk, iDVD ejects the disk. But the remaining time still runs. And when reaching the point "about one minute left", nothing more happens. I have to cancel the process. Consequently, when I want to burn another disk, I have to do the complete encoding again - which I do not want, of course, because it'll take ages until I have done all my copies.
Any ideas about this?? Thanks!

When I've made DL DVDs, I've created a disc image and then burn to Verbatim DVD+R DL at slow speed.
...because burning from a disk image does not comply with the standards for a DVD DL.
Why not?
There is always some concern that creating a disk image file won't properly set the dual-layer break point. Anecdotal information in the forum suggest this isn't a really a problem.
Daniel, just do what Len said...

  • Burning more than one dvd

    Anyone know of a way to burn more than one DVD at a time with DVD studio Pro if you have two burners in your machine?

    Hi Mossie,
    I got a product this summer - Dragon Burn from NTI.
    http://www.ntius.com/dragon_burn.asp
    It's not as easy as Toast, but works pretty well. There are a few extra steps to creating the disc image to burn from , but not too bad.
    Give it a try. They have a demo on the site.

  • Encore can't burn more than one DVD at a time: Sense Code 56400

    For a long time now I've been unable to burn multiple DVD's at a time. I burn more than one and I get an error and have to make a coaster out of yet another DVD
    I just upgraded to 24 gb of DDR3 PC 1600 RAM, I have an 6 Core Processor, I have 7.8 on everything accept my hard drive which is 7.0 out of 7.9 according to my Windows 7 Pro. 64 bit system.
    I have 2 different DVD burners, one is a blu-ray burner too. I have the same issues, only different error readings it seems, on both drives. The first drive didn't burn even one for some reason so I tried the second. The second drive would burned 3 and on the fourth I got the errors' which I've included screen shots of below. I was surprised I got through three before I got to this error. By the end of the week I have a large project I need to make 30 DVD's of. HELP!!!!!
    A long time ago on my older machine I had similar problems and I went through different drives and discs until I seemed to come up with the magic combination which seemed to be a Plextor burner and Verbatim. But, then i got a bad batch of verbatim and tried Maxell and used those successfully for a while. Right now I'm using what a friend gave me, TDK's. I'm wondering if that's what the problem is... HELP!!!!

    I have managed to get it to work consistently now. I just burned 20 DVD's without a problem.
    I tried everything you suggested except the imageburn software. I didn't like that site, I was too anxious to try and figure out where to download that software in the midst of all the advertisements on that site.
    After clearing out everything in startup and services except what I needed I still wasn't able to burn successfully. Finally I went and purchased some Verbatim DVD-R discs and wahlah! Actually, after the first try with the verbatim I had an error code when trying to burn with Encore. So, I created and image file as you suggested and then I used Cyberlink's Power2Go to burn the image file and from there on it seems everything is solid.
    I think the biggest problem was using TDK discs. I came to the realization a few years ago that certain disks are not as predictable as others and that verbatim and maxell seem to be the best. I did get one bad batch of verbatim though one time and that's when I switched to Maxell. My friend gave me 200 of the TDK's and I've been having problems ever since. But, I wasn't sure what it was exactly because he gave me those around the same time I rebuilt my system.
    I had also found the Plextor seems to be the best bet for burners. But, I had been using an HP one lately and thought maybe that was the problem. However, now it seems to be fine.
    I really don't know what fixed it. I mean, nothing definitely worked until I started using the Verbatim today. But, that first verbatim erroring perplexed me. I had done some other things too, like removed some programs, like a bunch of HP printer crap. I even removed my virus software, Window Security Essentials. I just reinstalled it so now I'm wondering if I can burn as consistently. I had seen somewhere where someone said they removed Windows' Defender to get theirs working.
    Anyways, I guess what I need to do is format my main hard drive, only put adobe stuff on it, and then take my old computer set it up for everything else. That'll probably be the best thing to do... If I have anymore problems like this I'm doing that right away!

  • Can't burn more than 1 DVD

    So I finally got iDVD to work - I can't use a theme or anything, I'm just burning "one Step DVD from Movie..." I'll deal with the theme problem later but I really need these DVDs burned by tomorrow... so here's the problem: I burn the DVD just fine, the disk ejects and then iDVD says "done" and it is stuck 'thinking'. Then have to force quit and open iDVD back up to burn another disk. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?

    Can you save your DVD project as a disk image? It will go through all the encoding, but instead of burning a disk, you get a disk image that is the exact copy of the DVD. You can use the disk image to burn further DVDs through Disk Utility. If you go this route whenever you make a DVD project, you can save yourself wasted disks if there is a problem with burning.
    Since you already have a disk that burned, you can use it to make a disk image and do the burning of the rest of the disks from the disk image created from that.

  • How can I burn more than 1 movie to a DVD when there is room on the disc for it. Premiere wants to overwrite once 1 movie is burned to the disc

    How can I burn more than 1 movie onto a DVD? Once 1 movie is burned successfully to the disc, I try to burn another movie and Premiere wants to overwrite the first movie. One movie is 1.2 GB, second is 2.3; so there is room on a 4.7 GB DVD-RW.

    What you report is what it is.
    Each burn to of Timeline content to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc results in the disc containing one OpenDVD Folder and one VIDEO_TS Folder.
    Only one VIDEO_TS Folder can be put on a DVD-VIDEO disc even when Premiere Elements is not involved. I have seen that written about online, and I have
    never found a way to overcome what seems to be basic behavior description of DVD-VIDEO..
    Premiere Elements will allow you to write to a disc with content already on it, but only after you give the OK for erasing the disc content before going ahead
    with the burn to.
    If you have several movies, one possibility is to build a Timeline with the movies, use stop markers, and setup disc menus according so that the viewer
    can selectively watch the movies. More on that later if wanted.
    Any questions or need clarification, please ask.
    Thank you.

  • How to burn more than one file on the same dvd?

    I would like to burn more than one file in to the same dvd. It seems to me that using Finder I can burn only a file. There is some alternative command? Thank's

    Select all the item to burn... right click...
    Or
    Place all items into a folder and burn the folder to the disc.
    Or
    Make a Burn Folder in the Finder (place items into the folder) and burn from there to a disc.

  • Can I make a DVD that will go for more than two hours?

    Hi,
    I'm working in iDVD 08, version 7.0.1, and when I drop in video that lasts over an hour, I get a warning. The original videos are around 100 MB for each hour, and iDVD won't let me add more than two. It's saying my two 100 MB videos will fill the 4.2 GB of space on the DVD.
    What can I do to have the videos stay at around 100 MB each, so I can put several of them on one DVD?
    Any help is most appreciated.
    Russ Conte

    Russ,
    iDVD isn't really designed to archive old highly compressed movie files.
    DV video (for which iDVD was originally designed) runs about 13 GB per hour and iDVD mpg-2 compresses everything to fit a maximum of 120 minutes on a single-layer disc. (Your files are much more highly compressed than DV and perhaps are also smaller in image size.)
    If you want to 'cram' a lot more content on a DVD (and don't care about the quality) you might want to look at VisualHub that claims to let you put up to 18 hours of content on a disc.

  • Can I export (burn) more than one slide show to the same DVD

    Can I export (burn) more than one slide show I created in iPhoto to the same DVD, and if yes, how?

    Yes.  If you're using iDVD export the slideshow out of iPhoto at 480p size and drag it into an open iDVD menu window, being careful to avoid any drop zones.  iDVD can handle up to 120 minutes of playing time (movies plus menus) on a single layer DVD disk.
    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.

  • Bug? My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future.

    My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future even though I can see them on the month, week and day view. Any suggestions on how to fix it? I've tried it all. I called the apple support and they checked on their iPads. They all did the same and they couldn't help me. They suggested trying this way. I'd like to be able to plan a few years ahead and the year view would make thing so easy!
    Is this a bug?

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
    Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Not able to Render more than two asset type in a drop zone on page

    Hi All,
    I have created two different assets by making two different flex family.
    I need to render these two assets in a single drop zone on a page.
    Can some one tell me how is it possible to make a drop zone on page which will be able to take two different type of assets because while creating Page attribute when i select page attribute of type asset there is no option through which i can select more than two asset types.
    Thanks & regards,
    Ankur Bhatia

    Hi Rodney,
    Thanks for ur Reply.
    While creating page attribute on admin site,when we select attribute type as "asset" a dropdown list comes just below through which we can select only a single asset.
    how to use a list option here or how can we create it so that it can be used with various asset types.
    Also in avisports site there is no drop zone which can contain more than one asset of different type.
    The Drop zone contains here all the assets of same type.
    Thanks and Regards

  • How can i use IDSM-2 in inline mode for more than two VLANs?

    can i use the IDSM-2 in inline mode to be ips to more than two VLANS
    like this or it isn't
    intrusion-detection module 5 data port 1 access-vlan 10,20,30,40,50
    intrusion-detection module 5 data port 1 access-vlan 100,200
    thank u all for your help

    The IDSM-2 ports need to be configured as trunk ports with multiple vlans rather than as access ports.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/vpndevc/ps4077/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00807517eb.html#wp1068377
    And instead of creating an inline interface pair by pairing Gig0/7 with Gig0/8 within the IDSM-2 configuration, you would create inline vlan pairs.
    With an inline vlan pair you pair 2 vlans on the same interface.
    You can have up to 255 inline vlan pairs on each interface (assumining you keep the total traffic from all of the pairs within the IDSM-2s performance limit of around 500Mbps)
    How to create inline vlan pairs:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/vpndevc/ps4077/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00807517bb.html#wp1047852
    The other aspect you need to be aware of is that not all IOS versions will support configuring the IDSM-2 data ports as trunk ports for inline vlan pairs.
    Your best bet is to use 12.2(18)SXF4 or a later version on the 12.2(18)SXF train.
    The 12.2(33)SR train does not currently support the trunk feature for the IDSM-2.

  • Since the recent update, my Text Messages no longer permit me to send messages to more than two people at a time. How do I resolve this issue?

    Since the most recent update, my IPhone 5c no longer permits me to send text messages to more that two people at a time. How can I resolve this to send text messages to more than two people in a group message.

    It would appear that I can send an SMS to multiple contacts, providing that it's not a forwarded message. This means that I have to start from scratcheach time, and then I can send it to over 30 recipients at a time. Not sure why though, and I'm not sure why the sign doesn't appear all of the time as an option for me to press. At other times, it is particially obscured by the curser/text box. This is obviously a glitch in the system, as it happens inconsistently.

  • How can I compare more than two VIs at a same time in labview 2009

    How can I compare more than two VIs at the same time. I am an Lab Engineer I have to check assignments submitted by students and I want to know how many of them are copied from each other. Labview compare VI can only compare two VI at a time while I want to check about 30 VIs at same time.
    Regards,

    I'm not aware of a tool to compare multiple VIs.  If you don't find anything, consider posting this to the LabVIEW Idea Exchange to expose this idea directly to NI R&D.
