Burning process errors

When I try to burn a DVD ( iDVD 05) once it finally accepts a disc ( I have tried 3 different media - verbatim, fuji, & sony) this is the detailed message I get when iDVD stops -
Errors were found during the burning process :
The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)
I have seen this problem before and followed several suggestions posted here - including cleaning my drive w/ compressed air, running a CD/DVD cleaner disc and changing media. When I did this before, I was successful in burning 3 copies of one project. However, since creating my latest project I continue to get the same error notice, even when I've tried the same 3 suggestions. It will burn CDs no problem - any suggestions?
I have:
Hardware Overview:
Machine Name: iMac G5
Machine Model: PowerMac8,2
CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (3.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 2 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 512 MB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 5.2.5f1
My project is only 2 slide shows w/ about 150 pictures. My hard drive has 77 GB free -

fuji is up to 8x
verbatim 8x/1x
i have successfully burned the verbatim for over a year now and only bought the others when this problem occurred.
when i checked the cleaner disc i used, it the cover stated that it was a CD cleaner - is there a different one for the DVD laser?
thanks!

I keep getting the error: "Menu Encoding Error... need to stop burning process" when I attempt to burn a DVD

Very frustrating... I'm trying to burn a DVD and I've done it about 100 times before. I've checked the mapping for errors and found none. When I attempt to burn a DVD, the error mentioned above appears after a few minutes. I've tried to update all software, restart the computer, and use other DVRs. Any adivice would be most helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hi
To be able to help we need more exact information and that You try out every suggestion as precise as possibly.
First step is as always - separate encoding from burn-process - By Save as a DiskImage from File menu in iDVD (as suggested by Old Toad)
If problem persists in encoding part then
• iDVD got a corrupted pref file - very common problem
• Space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk get's too low to be able to store the temp. files from iDVD and Mac OS (can not be stored elsewhere)
• Material feed into iDVD - can not be digested as strange video codecs and audio files in .mp3 .wma and other exotic formats.
iDVD pref file - to find out if this is the problem - Easiest and most secure way is to - Create a new User-account and log into this. Re-try iDVD - If it now works OK then the problem is very close to 100% in the pref file. Either do Your work in the new Account or go back and trash the old pref file.
Space on Start-Up HD - I never go under 25Gb to let iDVD and Mac OS run OK
Material - Here You need to supply specific information
• Video - from what Camera - in what codec - If You can open a video file in QuickTime-Player then here open Inspector and read Video format/Codec: nnnnnnnn, size and frame rate - and tell us
• Audio - All audio I use is in .aiff 16-bit 48kHz (as from my miniDV Camera or 44.1 kHz as from Audio-CDs all other is converted to this. iTunes is even more problematic. Here I collect all needed audio into a new PlayList and this I BURN out as a standard Audio-CD (.aiff) (never .mp3) and in my movie projects I use the files from this CD.

"Errors Found During Burning Process"

Hi,
Having sucessfully burned AVI movies using iDVD in the past I have started getting errors. iDVD now does the same thing regardless of the movie i'm trying to burn and the media I use.
Having selected Best Quality (due to the film size), the menu rendering works fine, as does the prolonged job of encoding the video. When iDVD gets to the Audi encoding bit, just before it starts to burn the DVD itself, iDVD ejects the disc and states: Errors Found During Burning Process.
Clicking on the arrow to get more info it states: "The recording device reported the hardware error: Tracking servo failure. (0x09, 0x01.)" Bizarrely, the main iDVD progress window states both 'Cleaning Up' and 'Writing Lead-In' and the only way to get out if it is to force quit.
I've read a few posts on here and tried a couple of things such as trashing the plist file and reparing permissions. I also booted up the diagnostic disc to see if it could see a problem with the optical drive. But nothing has solved the problem.
Any ideas?
For reference, I'm running iDVD 5.0.1 on Tiger on a 1.8 G5 iMac with 1GB RAM.
Appreciate any help you can give me.

Colleagues:
Ran into the same error, # -34506. Definitely frustrating as I was burning a DVD of an iMovie that I'd spent many hours editing. The iMovie is only 30 miniutes in length, so I don't think it's a size issue. iDVD went through each one of it's steps in burn DVD sequence. However, 45 minutes later when processing is finished, the message reads: "Burning Finished, Errors were found during the burning process." Clicked to see the detail: "The error # -34506 was reported." Checked the DVD and nothing was burned!!! The same thing happens when I opt for disk image. No img file is produced. This is especially frustrating as it looks like it all but completed processing.
Does anyone know what Error # -34506 specifically indicates? How do you fix this? Does it only happen in a specific sequence? And, is Apple aware of the problem?
Thanks!

"Errors found during the burning process"

Hello,
I created an iDVD project that includes:
1. 108-minute movie
2. 6-minute movie
3. 3-minute movie
4. 12-minute slide show (3 four-minute slide shows)
The project worked fine in the iDVD Preview. I then attempted to burn the DVD right from iDVD, and after 8 hours of encoding, I got the "Errors found during the burning process" message.
I've read so many posts here with a hundred different possible solutions, but what is the best place to start to try to determine what the errors are and how to fix them?
Following one suggestion, I am now creating a Disk Image first, but if errors still exist with a Disk Image, what do I do then?
I'm working on a Powerbook G4 with the iLife upgrade. Thanks for any advice.
Larry

Larry,
Here's my philosophy on iDVD troubleshooting, largley based upon my experience here at this forum, with heavy doeses of input from Ken Tidwell, Len Goff, Old Toad, F Shippey, with more recent input from SDIllini, Hui Cheng, and Beverly M.......
#0 - always use "Save as Disk Image" instead of burning when troubleshooting iDVD
#1 Try the easy usual suspect fixes first! After all if these don't work you can always try the hard fixes!
Check the list on this download:
http://dvd.kentidwell.com/iDVDUOFAQ2005.pdf
But here are easy solutions IMHO:
Get free space on the startup drive -20GB recommended
Delete the iDVD plist file com.apple.iDVD.plist
Repair Disk Permissions
Clear Cache Files (CacheOutX, TigerCacheCleaner, Onyx)
Do you have 12 bit audio - check your camcorder.......if not 16 bit you will have problems
Fix Chapter Markers-don't put one at the beginning in iMovie (iDVD will do it for you)
Chapter Markers - don't put one at the end.
Chapter Markers - don't put one within 2 secs of a transition
Delete other corrupt preference files (try using Preferential Treatment)
#2 When the easy fixes don't work, you need to divide and conquer. The suspects are your a) your project media, b)your hardware, c)your system/user preferences, d)iDVD.
A good test for a&d is to build a simple test project with other photos/movies/themes/audio and see if you can "save as disk image" the test project. The iDVD4 tutorial project is great if you've ever had iDVD4 installed on your machine. If this works it suggests that iDVD is working OK, and that something in your project is causing the hiccup.
The most common problems in projects are CMs, audio and transitions. One way that sometimes clears them up is to export to full quality DV (or to tape!) and re-import into iDVD. In slideshows, funny JPEGs can bring iDVD down. The only method here is to try different groups to find the bad actor.
OK let's assume that you can't burn (I mean "Save as Disk Image") the test project or the tutorial. This suggest that your hardware/system/iDVD is having problems and your project is probably fine. Then what?
c) Hardware: if you can make a disk image but can't burn it, or it plays badly, then try creating a data DVD - if you can't do that I'd suspect your DVD drive. Try different brands of DVD-R (and I'd stick to -R, not +R nor +RW), I like Verbatim. Next on the suspect list is RAM. iDVD is the best test for RAM known to mackind. Try pulling non-Apple supplied modules and try again.
OK, let's assume you can make data DVDs, but you can't make a good disk image, and you've tried pulling all non-Apple RAM. What next?
Try creating a new user. New users have more limited sets of fonts and all new preference files and caches, not only for iDVD but for everything, and few (if any) third party plug-ins installed.
Finally try reinstalling iDVD.......
If you've done all this, a new system install might be in order, but come here first for advice from others before going that far!

ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?

ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?
This one project I want to copy to DVD keeps saying this when I go to burn (that is after nearly 2 hrs of processing). There is nothing wrong with the movie so i don't know why i'm having such a problem burning it. i guess to start i'd need to know what this code means (I couldn't find it in iDVD help).
thanks in advance
Jeremiah

First I'd be certain that I had changed the preferences from best quality to best performance.
Did you follow the chapter rules?
*Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the start or end of the timeline.
*Make sure no chapter markers are within a transition.
*Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the end of a transition.
You may have already done this, but
Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.

Error during burning process

I am using OS10.4.6
Powermac G5
Final Cut HD4.5
IDVD 5.0.1
I have made a 27 minute movie in Final cut....i cannot seem to burn it in IDVD no matter what. I have been using this full time for 4 yrs and have never had this issue.
I have tested other movies and they burn fine...i have tried throwing away all the render files and re-rendering the movie in final cut and then re-exporting it out. i have exported it out in 2 different ways...no matter what i do, I keep getting an error during the burning process that says
there was an ERROR in the burning process
which is leading me to believe that some file within my final cut project is corrupt or problematic.
i have worked on this thing for about 50 hours and cannot start over from scratch, Help!

Ashley- I know you're probably getting desperate but please don't duplicate post.
I'm not real familiar with iDVD but I know you have to export a QT movie from FCP and then burn that right? Your QT Movie, was it a self contained QT or a refernce Movie. If you have no idea what I just asked, when you exported it and you went to File>Export>QT Movie> did you select the box that says "make movie self-contained"?
If so then a corrupt file is a moot (sp?) point. Can you open the QT Movie and watch it successfully in QT?
If you CAN watch it in QT then your problem probably lies in iDVD.
Answer these questions for us and we'll take the next step to getting a DVD in your hands.

Error in burning process

I've burned my DVDs before, but this time it won't finish the burning. It says there was an error during the burning process before it's about to finish. I have 30 GB free on my HD, 1GB RAM, and a black Macbook. The other posts I saw on this topic had to do with upgrading Quicktime I think and I don't think that's the problem with mine since I bought it a little while ago and as far as I know, Quicktime hasn't been updated since August. (Except for the software updates, which I'm all up to date with)
Also, after it gives me the message iDVD won't close out. I have to manually hold the power button down to shut off to get it functioning again.
Any suggestions? Thanks for reading
EDIT: I posted this in the wrong forum earlier, and am now posting in the right place and I got the error # it's -34502

I searched the forum for the error message and found this

it solved my problem.

Error found during burning process

I am having a problem burning my iDVD project to disk. I'm using DVD-R disks. The message I get is "Errors found during burning process". The burning process seems to work correctly all the way through until it gets to the last step - "burning".

There are lots of things that can cause problems burning to disk.
I suggest that you save your project as a disk image (an option on the iDVD file menu) and see if that is successful. If it is successful, that would eliminate issues related to iDVD, encoding, and source material. After that, I would look to what brand of DVD you are using (Verbatim, Sony, Fuji, and Hp are oft recommended here), what burn speed (4x or lower is best), whether all iLife programs are up to date, whether you have any 3rd party or Quicktime plug-ins that might be interfering, whether you have sufficient hard disk space to burn (20 Gb is recommended, although 5GB would be absolute minimum).

Idvd5.01 Errors were found during the burning process (Burned Finished)

I've never had this problem before, but i'm trying to burn a dvd after all the media and dvd are ready for burning and when I click on the burn icon the following message pops up: Errors were found during the burning process. I've check to make sure nothing is hanging outside the title safe area. Any suggestion to why I'm getting this error.

Hello, Oscar,
This message can mean several things.
First, are you burning an iMovie or a slideshow or both?
Do you have chapter markers in your movie? Are they on or withing 2 seconds of any transition or at the beginning of your movie?
Does everything encode properly?
Are you able to 'save as disk image'?
Post back with some more details about your project.

Errors were found during the burning process!?!?

I finished importing a movie off of my DV Camera and clicked "share" in the iDVD '06 menu. I selected iDVD and my movie was sent into iDVD 6. After customizing a menu, and inserting a blank disc, the burning process was started. After iDVD6 has finished "processing" and "rendering" the menus and the movie, the progress bar for the action "burning your DVD" pops up. About a quarter of the way through I get a window which says the following:
Burning Finished
Errors were found during the burning process.
After clicking "Details" it says:
The recording device reported the media error: Write error. (0x0C, 0x00.)
I have tried burning a movie on all DVD types available.(DVD-R DVD+R DVD RW) Why does this problem keep occurring? Is there a problem with my superdrive?

Hello Ilzmaster,
the cause could be your burner, but it's much more likely that high burn speed is the culprit - and you can't control that in iDVD.
Try creating a disk image (File > Save as Disk image). This creates an .img file on your HDD, that can be stored for future use and gives you the option to preview your DVD on your Mac before burning to disc.
Next use Disc Utility or Toast to burn your DVD at slow speed. 4x is acceptable, 2x (... or even 1x) is better.
Use only high quality DVD-R (not DVD+R) media (e.g. Verbatim) to minimize burn errors and compatibility issues. Make sure the DVD is compatible with slow burn speed (e.g. 1x-4x)
Also: iDVD likes to have the project(s) on your startup disc with 15 - 20 GB of available disc space
hope this helps

I'm trying to burn an iMovie in iDVD and at the end of the whole burn process it says "Multiplexer Error" "there was an error during formatting". How do I fix it so that it'll burn?

I'm trying to burn an iMovie in iDVD and at the end of the whole burn process it says "Multiplexer Error" "there was an error during formatting". How do I fix it so that it'll burn?

Hi
Multiplexing error is a very complex problem due to many things (long long list following) - one common but not obvious reason is that material on the iDVD menu goes outside the TV-Safe area (or just touching it).
So first - turn on TV-Safe area and move any object well inside of this.
Wide screen stretched - usually (as I think) it is due to making a 4x3 movie in a 16x9 wide-screen project OR the other way around. This forces one to on flat-screen TV (or other) set the presenting view right - My has 4x3, wide-screen, zoom and auto-wide-screen and I have to switch this by my remote for some DVD I've made "wrong" way.
Now my long long list on Multiplex Error
LONG LONG LONG LIST
Multiplexing Error
PART One.
Use of strange video/audio material e.g. .avi, .wmv, .mp3 etc.
I only use.
Video - StreamingDV (miniDV tape via FireWire) and
Audio - .aiff (as on audio-CDs) (else converted to this .aiff 48KHz)
Photo - .jpg (.bmp known problematic)
Chapters !
A. Using strange letters in video project name e.g. +,/; etc. keep to a-z and 0-9 strange letters in project name e.g. +
as described by Donnyboy69. Does the title of your project have any symbols or decimal points in it. If so, that is why you are getting the error. I had a project that had a + sign which caused the same problem. I renamed it without the symbol and low and behold, it worked.
B. Location of Chapters
• Can’t be at start or end of movie (Skip first/start one - iDVD sets this by it self. At the End - no need)
• Not in a transition (or within 2-3 seconds from it)
Important when from iMovie HD6 or previous - Now also observed when using FCE 4
PART Two.
from Robert Modero.
"Multiplexing Error. Problem during initialization of tracks"
Simply remember to add subtitles to your Quicktime files and menu buttons.
Once I did that, I was back in business.
from Boise Jim
Do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
I always makes a DiskImage first and test this so that it runs OK
I use only - Verbatim DVDs
I use only - DVD-R
I burn at an as slow speed possibly e.g. x1
This gives good DVDs
PART Three.
Multiplex Error
Chuck, Chicago 2/7/2009.
Back again. Here is what I have found to work. I also have and use a LaCie DVD-R/RW DL external drive and a LaCie external hard drive as well. Since yesterday I have tried a few ways to burn a themed iDVD project having four 56 minute movies on it, amounting to 226 minutes onto a DVD DL disc, capacity 240 minutes. Apple tech support really didn't know what to do but gave me a very good tip. I had two options left. Apple tech support's tip was to try disc image. One of the replies on a thread with this subject said not to, but my experience today is good. Put your project onto "Burn to disc image," under "iDVD, file." Yesterday encoding took me 23 1/2 hours. Overnight for iDVD disc image, encoding took 21 1/2 hours (again) while I slept. This morning I tried to copy/burn disc image to a DVD with Roxio Toast 7, and it stopped near the end of the burn with some kind of "error" message. So then I tried Utilities> Disc Utility> Burn icon, and followed it through. Be sure to click the DVD DL drive in the window "Burn disc in.". I had one other problem though. At the end of a 46 minute copy, it started to verify, and at the end of verify it rejected the burn. So I tried again, and when "verify" appeared, I clicked on "Skip." The disc finished burning and is doing fine and well. A long and tortuous process, but at last something works. I made several additional copies using Disc Utility. Best wishes. Chuck, Chicago.
2. Disconnect any other external devices not absolutely needed.
e.g. external USB/USB2 hard disks, other FW hard disks etc.
3 Chapter marks in transitions - minimum 2 sec from

(Not a 'guy' but I will answer!)
First, I do not think that mixing wide-screen and standard makes a difference in iDVD.
Second, you should use a better brand of DVD disk. Also, many of us have experienced fewer problems on playback with DVD-R disks. Recommended brands here are Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden. Memorex and TDK are not consistent and may not give you a correct burn. They apparently have fewer layers in the composition of the disk. I have always used Verbatim DVD-R disks and have not had any burn problems.
Also, choose a slower burn speed, 4x or less.
Third, to determine if the iDVD project will burn properly, create a disk image file (from within iDVD, go File->Save as Disk Image) and test it. Mount the disk image and then open DVD Player (in Applications) and view your project. If it plays correctly, you can then burn the actual DVD disk from the disk image file using Disk Utility.
From. Boise, Idaho
I did everything I've seen suggested, but a friend (who used to be an Apple Genius) suggested that I do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
It worked, and I got a clean burn from iDVD.
Hopefully this can help other people.

Well, I finally got it, and it was odd enough to post here incase anyone looks this topic up again. Many things were tried, including burning the unedited film, the edited film without titles and chapter markers, abbreviating the chapter markers in case length was the issue (remember the old iMovie used to truncate them when moving to iDVD?). In the process, I noticed that one, and only one, chapter marker was on the same line as the title marker. All the others were on the line above. The only way I seemed able to change that was to clip a few seconds of film. After that last clip, the offending marker took a place on the line above, as were all the others. That run published, compiled completely and burned. That's one for the books.
One user more writes
To add my experience with Multiplex Errors using iDVD (7.0.4), I recently created two iDVD projects
Video from both passed from FCE 4.01 with chapters
One project worked fine in creating disk image file
The other gave Multiplex Errors
I tried suggestions to remove special characters and no chapter marks at beginning, but nothing worked
Note that I've used iDVD for dozens of projects and this is first time I've run into Multiplex Errors
Anyway, for problem project, I tried an experiment where I removed all chapters in FCE and passed to new iDVD project
This time multiplex errors gone
So had something to do with chapters
So now I tried numerous experiments to remove individual chapters and try again creating disk image with new iDVD project
After numerous tries, I was able to narrow problem down to 1 "Bad" chapter mark
That is, when I left the "bad" chapter in my FCE project and passed to iDVD, iDVD gave multiplex error
When I removed "bad" chapter mark (and others in), no multiplex error
As a final experiment, I moved "bad" chapter mark about 5-10 sec's beyond original point and passed to iDVD, the multiplex errors now magically went away and I was able to finally create my disk image.
I have no idea why this worked, but thought I'd mention here in case someone else runs into similar problem.

In addition to Bengt's fine advice, burning errors can occur if you have located any of your menu buttons wholly or partly outside of the safe TV viewing area. Go to your main project menu, then click on View/Show TV Safe Area, to check. Drag into the safe viewing area any buttons that are outside the safe viewing area.
Russ One - suggest this
Multiplex Error-There was an error during muxing preparation
One thing that worked for me was to export the video w/o chapter markers as a self contained movie (thereby not loosing the edits & etc). Then make a new FCE project and import that movie into a new sequence and add the chapter markers. I've used "-", "&" and "," with no problem in the chapter names. Removing the markers or exporting without them did solve the problem but renaming them with just numbers 1,2,3....5, did not solve the problem and since this problem seems to happen with with iMovie as well, it would suggest the problem is in the video or audio and in combination with the chapter markers iDVD just can't handle it. The only other possibility is that both iMovie and FCE share the same or similar chapter marker code that some how is corrupting the markers.
Summary - What to try
1. Chapters
• Only A to Z and 0 to 9 in chapter title
• No Chapter mark at very beginning of movie
• No Chapter mark in or within 2 seconds from any transition in movie
2. TV-safe area for buttons (no one outside this)
3. Safe re-boot
4. No other external devices connected - that are not needed
SDMacuser adds to this
• On #4 ... No ext. devices. Some think this applies mainly to ext. FW. Not the case. Also applies to ext. USB2 as well (not to mention flash drives too).
Do not leave 3rd party devices / camera / camcorder plugged in unless it is being used with iDvd's One Step process. Certain web cams can trigger this also (especially ones with added features like LED light/s that draw additional power from the FW or USB bus).
5. Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-up hard disk
6. Make a DiskImage first - reduces where problem originates
7. Trash iDVD pref. file
8. Make a new iDVD project
9. Movies in project with same aspect ratio e.g. 4x3 or 16x9
10. No other programs/applications running during iDVD process. e.g. Internet, screen & energy savers

I can't burn any DVD or CD - burning process interrupts before it ends

Hi everybody !
Sorry for my bad english, but I assume you're all aware about the frenches are not very good at english.
I've got the following problem: I can't burn any dvd or cd. I've already tried with different programs such as Sonic, Nero 7.0, and I Tunes, and I got every time a mistake wich interrupted the burning process before it ends.
So I don't know what to day ! I've already tried to re install the drivers, but it's didtn't change anything.
In order to help you, I've saved an error log from nero. I hope it could be helpfull to someone who could help me !

Hi
The error log doesnt provide any very useful information.
According to this error log the simulation was running correct but the burning process was not started.
In such case its very hard to say why it happens. Possibly the drive is damage and cannot calibrate the lens properly or you use not compatible medias.
The burning process depands also on the fiels and data which youwant to burn.
Some data, CD, DVDs are encrypted and its not possible to burn and to copy it.
In other case you could also try to burn the medias with lower speed and not with 24x.
But in worth case you the drive has a malfunction and you have to replace it ;(

IDVD burning/multiplexing error

In iDVD 5 I get a message that says "errors were found during the burning process" and then it says "error while burning/multiplexing". I have not been able to burn a DVD thus far and I don't know what the problem is. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks, AS

Andrew,
Please tell us more about your project: theme, how you made the movies/slideshows, music, etc.
And start with these tips:
Make sure you have 20GB free space on your startup drive.
Delete the iDVD plist file "com.apple.iDVD.plist"
Repair Disk Permissions on startup drive with Disk Utility.
Set iDVD to best quality. (So you can get up to two hours)
No Chapter Markers at the the beginning (with iMovie, iDVD will add one for you) or within 2 secs of a transition.
Make sure your audio is 16 bit in iMovie. And try using "extract audio" in iMovie.
Use "Save as Disk Image" to encode, and burn with Disk Utility.
