Burning photo CD with Toast Titanium 7

I tried to post to Roxio discussions, but there was very little Mac activity there, so even though this is probably as much a Toast problem as a Mac one, I'm hoping someone can help me. I also tried to download the "patch" Titanium 7.0.1 but failed (that's a 66MB file and my internet connection is dial-up).
I'm trying to burn jpegs created in PhotoShop CS onto a CD-R or RW. Of the 36 jpegs, a few of them turn up as readable openable jpegs, but most come through as applications my computer doesn't recognize. There's also a bewildering array of other files turning up on the burned CD that I never put there, e.g, a folder marked "SEGMENT" full of ITEM0001.DAT; files called VCD, CDI, MPEGAV.
Here's what I've tried so far: change name of photo; try jpg and jpeg; try no after-the-period abbreviation; shorten name of photo still more by using a single-digit number (with and without .jpg).
Here's the most common "Kind" listed on these unreadable CDs: "Unix Executable File."
Roxio has been basically a non-stop headache. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion to burn the disk using the finder. However, when i insert a blank CD into the (La Cie) burner, the disc doesn't show up on the desktop. I can open iTunes and click Burn Disc, and it will burn. Or I can open Toast and drag files there for burning, but that's it.
Other ideas?
Thanks.

  • Problem with Toast Titanium 9

    I am trying to burn an HD DVD with Toast Titanium 9. It goes through the "Encoding" but refuses to burn the DVD and gives me a OS System error -50. I am using Fotomagico Pro to produce a slideshow to burn on the DVD. I found the error code which is a paramErr (Error in user parameter list). Where is the paramater list and how do I correct this error?

    Please post Toast related questions on the Roxio forums.

  • DVD Quality With Toast Titanium 8 Help

    how come when i download a movie and watch it on quicktime the quality of the video it perfect but when i burn it with Toast Titanium and watch it on my dvd player the quality isnt as good its kinda pixilated?
    thanks for the help

    the pixel would probably be caused by:
    1. poor quality in burning (dvd/cd burner is old)
    2. "medium" transfer, the data goes through many process of in and out having quality lost in effect... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-1
    3. original video size is small so it has to "crop" when shown in bigger screen

  • I need help with Toast Titanium please!

    Hey everyone,
    I didnt know where to post this so I figured here is good since you're all handy with video apps. I just got my unibody MBP and for some reason, whenever I try to burn something in Toast Titanium or Popcorn, it it stuck in the "Preparing" mode. iDVD has been burning fine, but the others applications are not. Can anyone figure this out?
    Thanks!

    Which versions of those apps are you using and are they compatible with your computer's Intel processor?
    You need at least Toast 7.1 or Popcorn 2.0 to run properly. Even then they might not be compatible with Mac OS X 10.5

  • Which blu-ray disc with Toast Titanium ?????

    Does anyone know how I can burn a blu-ray DVD on my Mac computor ?? I have downloaded Toast Titanium with the blu-ray plug-in but when i insert the disc to burn (a blue ray verbatim recordable disc) it ejects and says "please put in a recordable disc"... Any ideas??? Please help ASAP !!!!

    Make sure your drive supports Blu-ray (BD) burning (not just reading, but Writing).  BDROM is a READ ONLY device.  You could try burning the video to DVD as Blue-ray video though.  No need for BD if you don't need the size.  You could let Toast split it up for you over several DVD's.  I've done it.  Just make sure you have a player than can play blue-ray.
    If it won't burn, check to see you've selected BD and not DVD at the bottom of the window; you could check the specs of your burner by clicking the copy button and selecting the information page of your burner.  Look for "Write Support" and check to see that the format matches the disc you put in.
    Blu-ray DVD... ...There is such a thing and I've described it above.  Mooblie, Get your head out of your bum and do a little research.  Try not to misinform.  Blu-ray DVD is a finished product, not a physical media type; in that you are correct.  But don't sell burners on this site.  Try offering a solution they can use right away.
    You can burn BLU_RAY (highdefinition) video to standard and DL DVD's.  TOAST will split it up for you over several if needed.  I've done it, and they work great, just don't expect miracles with the menus (they might end up showing at the start of every disc).  If you have multiple videos, like me with my vacation clips, you could just have them all show up in their own chapter, and TOAST will split the video between the Files.  High-Definition across multiple discs, but a great way to get out one copy and have it ready to show off.  About 30min per DVD and just over an hour per DL DVD.

  • Best export format for encoding & burning Blu-ray with toast?

    Hi!
    Have a 1 hour and fifteen minutes program which I burn to Blu-Ray with Toast 10/HD. The problem is the time it takes, about 25 hours. Is this resonable really?
    Maybe it´s depending on the format I put out from Final Cut - H.264, 1920 x 1080 (1888 x 1062)Stereo (L R), 48,000 kHz
    Does anyone know if there is a better export setting in Final Cut to get the process work faster in Toast?
    Best / Urban

    I've never used toast to burn a BluRay however I have used encore and I export 10 bit uncompressed out of FCP and compress that. If your over an hour of program you'll have to scale back the data rate to make it fit, a 90 minute feature looks good content wise, but any text on it will show signs of the reduced data rate. the encode typically takes about 8 hours to build the disk image on an 8 core mac then about 45 minutes to burn from the image. I burn first to a rewritable in case of issues, then if it passes muster I'll burn the master

  • Can't burn CD even with Toast

    Ok, I tried all of the suggestions and still couldn't burn an audio CD, so I went ahead and purchased Toast 9. Still can't burn CDs. Is my only option to get an external CD so my husband can burn CDs of the music purchased from iTunes to play in his car? If so, which CD burner should I buy?
    Barbara

    Barbara, Toast cannot burn iTunes Music Store downloads because only iTunes has the right to remove the copy protection when burning an audio CD.
    You say your Mac Pro cannot burn CDs after upgrading to OS 10.5. I believe this means you need to reinstall the OS (using archive and install). I once received a new Mac directly from Apple that couldn't burn discs. When I reinstalled the OS the disc burning worked. I don't know if your situation is similar to what I experienced, but it sounds like something didn't install properly.
    If you want to try alternatives to reinstalling the OS you can download and apply the latest Combined System Update on top of your existing install (i.e. install the 10.5.2 combined update on your existing 10.5.2). You also could run Disk Warrior if you have it.
    As for external drives the ones sold by LaCie are excellent with Macs. Get a Firewire one.
    To burn audio CDs with iTunes go to iTunes Preferences, choose the Advanced tab, click burning and choose Audio CD as the format. You then can burn playlists to disc (assuming your OS is letting you burn discs).

  • Burn Bin image on Toast Titanium

    Hi
    I ve created a bin image of Windows XP using Toast Titanium 7, however the program refuses to write the image. I also get an error when trying to mount the image file under the toast format.
    Any ideas on what is causing the problem?

    Followed your advice and I made some progress.
    I exported my project from FCE using the Quicktime Movie option and it comes out great. I tried putting in iDVD and putting it on the Dual-Layer Disc setting Project Info and it appears that it will have enough space to come out ok.
    A new problem is that my project on the iDVD playback is being played in fullscreen when its supposed to be played in its original widescreen format. I'm not excatly sure what to do next, especially considering that another video in the same project with the same specifications and formatting is being played in its intended widescreen formatting...

  • Burning photos compatible with DVD player

    I want to create a DVD (or CD) with titled photos, i.e. an album. How do I export photos to a disc that can be read on a standard DVD player so they can been shown on a TV set? My IPhoto instructions sas the burning feature in iPhoto isn't compatible with Windows, which may be why such a disc won't work on my DVD player. I've tried moving an entire album as pdf but the titles with the photos disappear. Also, does DVD vs. CD make any difference? Thanks for any help!

    James,
    In order to have a true manual slideshow in iDVD, you can't select any music to be played with the slides. If you have assigned music to the slideshow, drag it out of the box beside the Slideshow Volume until it goes "poof." Then when you click on the Slide Duration menu (lower left) the "Manual" option will be active, and you can select it. Also click the Settings gear and select the option to "Display navigation arrows." When you Play the slideshow in iDVD, you have to use the little remote control (right arrow) to advance the slides; clicking the onscreen navigation arrow won't do it.
    If you wanted music, you can have the navigation arrows displayed and set the duration to 10 seconds (the longest choice). Or set a long playlist as the music and set duration to "Fit to Audio". However, this is problematic, because when the viewer advances the slide the music skips forward to match. It might be okay if the viewer only advanced one or two, but for a true manual show the interrupted music would be a major distraction.
    Regards.

  • Using Roxio Toast Titanium with 550 PowerBook

    Hello eveyone.
    I recently installed Tiger and am now on V. 10.4.7
    My PB has no cd or dvd burner so about 3 years ago, I bought a burner and installed Roxio Toast Titanium 5.1.2. All went OK - until Tiger.
    After the Tiger install, I can't get my Toast to open. This means I can use my burner - an ez quest connected with firewire - to burn a cd from iTunes but I cannot burn any of my iPhoto pics.
    Anyone had a similar problem? How do I fix it?? Should I just buy and install the latest from Roxio - their Media 8 I think?
    Any help would be great!

    Ouch! Well, at least you know you should have.
    Is reparing perms a big thing?
    It's a big thing in that it needs to get done, say like changing your oil. But like the oil, it's not a big thing to do.
    Can I go wrong and make things worse?
    I can't even imagine how. It's a normal, supposed-to-be performed thing.
    Open Applications:Utilities:Disk Utility, select your HD on the left side, click on Repair Permissions at the bottom, wait a few minutes until it's finished, quit DU, and you're all set.
    Also, I'd guess that you don't run Background Maintenance; I'd strongly recommend it (I like MacJanitor because it's so easy and it's freeware).
    Not to worry, this all normal/routine stuff.

  • Question;Will Toast Titanium work with new'SnowLeopard?

    So I do have Toast 7.....will it work? do I need some kind of 'upgrade on my Toast Titanium for it to work with Snow L??? thx in advance! Larry

    I've burned a couple of CDs with Toast Titanium 8 with success since installing SL. Haven't tried DVDs yet. However, I had no luck with Tivo Transfer portion of Toast 8. Sounds like that is what other users are experiencing as well. I might have to bite the bullet and upgrade to Version 10.

  • Trying to burn a file over 700MB using Toast titanium 7

    In windows if i burn a file over the standard size cd disc it will tell me i need to use 2 cd's
    i want to do that on my G5 IMAC and my G4 Powerbook using toast titanium 7 but it just says File exceeds the size of disc - thats all
    what can i do?

    If you are burning a CD with Toast 7 and it is a Data Disk, in the menu that
    pops out to to the left select Mac Only. Once you check that box it should
    automatically burn to as many CDs as necessary. I've included a picture for
    reference.

  • Imovie + garageband audio burn with toast?

    Hello all,
    I've been following this procedure:
    1) Place all video clips in iMovie HD
    2) process my voice over narrations with GarageBand (male narrator noisy)
    3) Put the GarageBand enhanced audio into iMovie
    4) Create the DVD with iDVD
    My question is can I use Toast instead?
    That is can I still burn the DVD with Toast with the audio that I processed in GarageBand?
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    you posted in the iMHD-section of this board.. which is vers 5 (five) of this app. answer differs on version of iMovie
    answer: yes.
    after inserting the GB-audio into your iM-project, save it.
    quit iM.
    launch Toast, select videoDVD
    drag iM-project into Toast..
    ... done.
