Burning to folder & DVD

My first time to post a note.
For several years I have selected to burn DVD to a folder.  From there I burn it to a DVD.  I have reinstall premiere 12 now several times.  I select to burn to a folder and it seems to go through all the stages.  However, when I open the folder, there is nothing there.  I checked other possible folders and found nothing.  What am I doing wrong?  Is it an internal system problem or am I missing something in the process?  Thanks for your help.

Premiere Elements 12 on what computer operating system? Have you updated 12 to the 12.1 Update yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates. If not, please do so.
For your immediate problem, can you burn to disc if you cannot burn to folder?
What other burn software do you have on your computer with Premiere Elements 12/12.1?
Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements?
Are you running the programs as administrator?
Have you tried to delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file? When you did the uninstall/reinstall did you use the free ccleaner to get rid of leftovers from incomplete uninstalls/reinstalls? If not, we will talk about this after your reply.
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

  • Burning to folder and then to dvd

    Hello,
    I am getting into a complete mess trying to burn my project in PE7 to a folder ( can't even see "burn to folder" option!) I need to comlpete this project today so can u PLEASE give me the steps I need to take. I did look in forums, but still none the wiser. I assume it is the Video .ts files that i then burn to dvd from the folder.
    Help much appreciated.

    Hunt,
    Bottom line: I believe that the Bitrate 8.0 vs 5.45 or 7.8 or other is a non issue for Premiere Elements 7 Burn to Disc or Folder. I respect the great work of Robert Johnston, but question generalizations from the work that others have made.
    I have not found the original Robert Johnston/Premiere Elements 3/Bitrate 8.0 vs 5.45 link with the reported proof for Premiere Elements 3, but did find the recent follow up chat on that subject in the following March, 2009 link
    http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4977
    Based on what I read there and my actual studies on the issue with Burn to Folder (with Nero to Burn VIDEO_TS Folder to DVD) as well as Burn to Disc (Sonic within Premiere Elements 7), I am left to recommend the following if you are using Premiere Elements 7 and want to put your Timeline on a DVD disc in the DVD-VIDEO format:
    In Share/Disc/Disc or Share or Disc/Burn to Folder
    Work with “Fit Contents To Available Space” checked
    If the Bitrate is less than 8 Mbps because the program is laboring to fit your Timeline on the disc, stop and consider the consequences of
    a. Bitrate lowering vs Quality, judging each case on it own merits, AND
    b. the fact that you may not have enough resources to complete the burn.
    The only time I ever leave “Fit Contents To Available Space” unchecked, is if and when I get a Data Rate Error message. The major fix for that is to leave the “Fit Content to Disc” unchecked and then manually lower the Bitrate gradually to a point where the Data Rate Error message just disappears.
    From Robert Johnson’s 2009 fuzzy recollections of the details of his original work done years ago in Premiere Elements 3 to the more recent chat on the subject, I would question generalizations made from the chat and applied to other situations. Robert Johnson does say in the 2009 link that in Premiere Elements 7 he does not see the quality vs bitrate issues that he reported in Premiere Elements 3. There are too many questions to be asked
    a. what was video source and format and duration…is he altering the bitrate on a Timeline whose content exceeds the available space of the disc or one whose content is already within the available space of the disc
    b. if you are opting for burn to folder, how if at all are the burn software and/or DVD disc brand and type impacting the quality of the result
    c. what does this all have to do with the way Adobe has programmed this Bitrate factor with and without “Fit Contents To Available Space” checked.

  • Burning TS folder as Data DVD vs. Video DV. Is there a difference?

    Is there a difference between burning a Video_TS folder as a Data-DVD vs. a Video-DVD in a program like Toast?
    I'm experiencing a wierd problem with a client where my discs only play on computers and not on DVD-players and I wonder if I may have burned the folder as a DATA DVD instead of a Video DVD and that is the problem...
    Does this make sense or am I a complete loon?
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for the link and quick response. I did use Toast
    When I was working on this proj a few monthes ago, I remembering giving them a "Master" disc with the TS folder in it. I'm currently wondering if perhaps I burned it as a DATA disc because (according to my thinking, let me know if its incorrect) that a TS folder burned as DATA would be of higher quality than a TS folder burned as Video, should they ever need to have it replicated.
    Come to find out they had the disc duplicated in-house. And those discs (including my Master) will only play on computers not DVD players... which seems to be consistent with a DATA disc. They inspected the disc and the folders/files look to all be in place so its kind of a mystery. Again, this seems to be what would happen if I burned a DATA instead of VIDEO: all the files would looks to be in place.
    Thoughts?

  • When burning a folder of photos to DVD, photos on  dvd are all pixellated

    I use a Nikon D50. Images look great in iphoto, or when printed. But when I burn a folder to dvd for sharing with others, the photos on the dvd are mostly pixellated, some are fuzzy, almost like out of focus. What's going on? Help!
    17" flat screen imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1 GB ram

    You're looking at the thumbnails. When you burn from inside iPhoto, you're actually creating a miniature library. It's intended for creating a disc that will be recognized by iPhoto in another Mac computer. Each photo is represented by the original "out of the camera" version and the latest modified version (if any modifications were made). Finally, there is a thumbnail of each photo (used by iPhoto) and that's apparently what you were viewing.
    If you merely wish to distribute photos to others (including your favorite photofinisher), export the photos to a temporary folder on the desktop. Then quit iPhoto and do a normal (Finder) burn. When finished you can trash the temp folder.

  • Burn DVD in PE4 or burn to folder questions???

    Hi everyone, I have burned my first DVD in PE4, no problems whatsoever. DVD looks great on my 52" TV and my 26". My question is two fold:
    1. After burning one DVD does PE4 save those files in a folder with your original clips etc, or do you have to burn to the folder option to have it ready to burn a DVD using an outside burning program. I ask because if you want a second one do you have to go through that original PE4 process again. It seems simpler to just burn to a folder if you have to go through that long process it does before burning to produce a second copy. (when I opened the DVD PE4 burned it has two folders listed)
    2. If it does not save all that preliminary work, can you just copy the first DVD and burn in Roxio or other burning program Nero etc and get an equivalent quality second copy???
    3. If the "copy disc" option does not work, can you copy the files from the first DVD to your hard drive and then burn in Roxio?
    Thanks

    The best way to make more than one copy of a DVD is to burn to a folder rather than directly to a disc and then burn your copies from these folders.
    http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bbfa615
    This is because (a) the program doesn't save your DVD files otherwise, so every DVD you burn will essentially start the process from scratch, and (b) duplicating a burned DVD has the potential of losing some data, and then you get a coaster rather than a DVD.

  • Encore CS3 crash when i click Build (SWF, BluRay, DVD Burn/Image/Folder) or Check project

    So I'm finally done with my DVD. Now i want this burned to a dvd or make an image file. Each time i hit BUILD or START (Check proj) the program quits and I'm left with the normal OS X message: The application Adobe Encore quit unexpectedly >> Ignore - Report... - Relaunch
    My DVD is not that fancy but i got a menu with 3 buttons made in PS with a pointer highlight and a animating background made in After Effects (using dynamic link) with some music. All of the buttons link to After effects comps with dynamic link. All of the after effects compositions are transcoded and works within the DVD preview (except the DVD menu background wont play, and i got a feeling it will play when i export an image or DVD). And all the After Effects comps links back 2 the menu when done. So there should be no error in the project flowchart.

    So i hit build and Encore quits, shut down, finada (Every time!). No matter what out put settings i use. I've exported DVD's from encore before on this computer without problems.

    Don't know if this any help but hope anybody got some ideas. I've been trying to look for a solution on the forums, but without any luck.
    By the way, I'm using a Mac Pro v3,1 (early 2008) with 2 x 2,8ghz quads, 10GB memory, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT (512mb) and plenty of disk space.

    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.

  • Back up iPhone 4 to a folder/DVD?

    Its been a while since I did this and even though my 16GB iPhone 4 is almost full, it would be good to back up my iphone 4 to a folder or somehting where i can burn to a dvd or 2, as back up.
    My icloud account is only 5GB and it says i should back this up - when i do it says error and it cant be done at this time, i suppose as i dont have enough room
    Is there a quick and simple way to back up to a file should i need to restore? via itunes?
    I know I can probably download all my photos via iPhoto and burn those to a disc or folder... and is that the same with itunes? so it may just be a smaller file to actually burn once these are gone?

    Yeah, I understand I syncs only with one iTunes library.
    So how can import all my iPhone's info (messages, photos, notes) to my computer and add them to iTunes? I want to back up everything before updating to iOS5.

  • I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite.  I want to create one movie that includes these short movies that I can then either burn to a DVD or show in iMovie's Theater.  How can I do it?

    I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite.  I want to combine those short movies into one movie that I can loop and burn on a DVD or show in iMovie Theater.  How can I do it?  The movies are now shared to iTunes.

    Another easy way to fix this.
    What I've noticed is that upon upgrading your projects and events to work with iMovie 10, initially it will work... Until you quit iMovie and reopen it again. Any events with hashtags will show up without the star next to the iMovie event. SO, if you happen to read this, after upgrading to iMovie 10 from its predecessor, immediately change the event name to NOT include a hashtag/pound symbol.
    Otherwise, if it's too late, you can either do the above or this...
    Hold down option and click on iMovie. This will prompt you Locate, Create a New Library, Cancel this window, or Choose a different library. What you want to do is create a new library, call it whatever you want to, this will only be temporary. After the program opens, it should be a blank Library. Then go to File > Open Library > iMovie Library (your original library) and proceed to change the name of your events. Quit the program. Go into your Movies folder in Finder, delete the library you temporarily created, and your back in business.

  • Burn a data DVD

    I have tried to burn a smart playlist to a DVD to listen to my music at work. The DVD does burn, but all the music that I have purchased from iTunes is missing. It is selected in the playlist but it doesn't burn to the DVD. Any suggestions?

    If you can locate the files using Finder, you should be able to burn the DVD.
    On your work computer, you would probably want to "Add Folder to Library" then
    select the DVD. It should import all the files off the DVD. If the files are purchased (DRM) you will need to authorize the computer at work as one of the 5
    authorized computers you have. You can then listen with iTunes. I think Apple is
    preventing you from burning "data" versions of the purchased songs. Although, I have backed up all my purchased songs to DVD in the past, not sure why now we
    can't do that. But once you go outside of iTunes, data is data, and you should
    be able to burn whatever you like (as a backup).
    Good luck.

  • Yes I am an idiot---How to burn content to DVD for TV viewing?

    I am sure this has been answered somewhere, but I haven't had any luck finding it. I need idiot-proof step-by-step instructions, if possible.
    I am trying to put content from my series 2 TiVo onto DVDs for children's viewing on Sony DVD players in the family room. I have scoured the TiVo and TiVo Community forums but they are too abstruse and technical for me. Given the extremely poor reviews of Popcorn, Toast, Roxio, and Sonic (the current TivoToGo for the Mac solution) I don't want to spend $ and wasted effort.
    I have used TiVo Decode Manager to convert TiVo content to MP4 (which works great ONLY on the Mac or iPod). I have used Living Room widget to convert TiVo content to MPEG (which is unreadable on the Mac without buying a Quicktime MP-2 component).
    I have burned a Maxell DVD-R using iDVD (it didn't see the MPEG files, but I got them on the DVD using the Burn Folder) which works great on multiple Macs IF run as a Quicktime file or in iTunes. OS X DVD Player doesn't see anything (it asks for Video_TS and Audio_TS files, which aren't there), nor do any Sony DVD players see a disc at all. Please note that I have NO trouble getting TiVo connected to my Mac or transferring content to my Mac.
    So, very simple question: I want to burn MP4 or MPEG content that is readable by Sony DVD players. I cannot figure out iDVD to do this. Or do I have to buy Popcorn or Toast?

    I want to burn MP4 or MPEG content that is readable by Sony DVD players. I cannot figure out iDVD to do this.
    Nope, iDvd won't do this (at least not directly). Toast/Popcorn are better options for what you wish to do.

  • How do you burn photos to DVD from iPhoto?

    How do you burn DVDs of photos in iPhoto?

    Depends.
    Want to just back up/share the photos? Export them to a Folder on the desktop and then burn that with the Finder. Result: A DIsk with a folder(s) of images.
    Want to back up the Library - all the images, versions, database file and so on? Share -> Burn. Remember a disk created in this way will not make any sense execpt to iPhoto.
    Want to burn to a DVD that you can view on a domestic DVD player? Make a slideshow. Export that. Then use  a DVD authouring programme to create that disk. iDVD is no longer developed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk. There are other options:
    Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
    Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
    But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate

  • Burning backup to DVD in iPhoto 5

    I tried to backup iPhoto 5 by burning to a DVD. iPhoto told me I was using 3.3gb and had 1 gb free. When I start the burn, I get to about 6.7% and the drive starts whining and then it says "finishing burn". Then I get the following error - Burning the disk failed because the communication to the disc drive failed. (error code 0x80020022). This happened twice through iPhoto and once when I tried to burn the iPhoto folder through the Finder. However, when I reduced the number of folders, hence the size, it burned without a problem. What's going on?

    Thanks for any suggestions....
    iMac Flat Panel   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    On many of the older Optical Drives they would only burn at 1X and 2X.
    That being said they were also very particular as to the Media that was used in them. Only the specified speed media worked well unless you checked the media you purchased carefully they were unreliable and would give you errors or spit the media out.
    Recently many of the Media Manufactures have been made aware of this problem and started making media that is of much better Quality.
    I also have an older burner in my Powerbook, I have found that Maxell 16X DVD-R media in the individual jewel cases will burn at 1X through and including 16X.
    You must read the packaging on this media. Not all 16X media will burn at the slower speeds. This media will burn at the highest speed your drive will allow.

  • Burning versions to dvd

    In Aperture 2 I have a number of projects identified by the year - 2002,2003 etc - in each project I have sub-folders named for geographical locations, - Toronto, Calgary etc. - and inside each of those I have sub-folders named for individual shoots. I tried to burn edited versions of the files in a project to a dvd but instead of getting my files in the folders i have them stored in I got 1400 files listed alphabetically according to the version name. Can anyone tell me how I can burn a dvd with the edited version of the files retained in the sub-folders of the project?
    My masters are Managed, in case this is relevant.

    When you export a version it is converted to a JPEG. Since you are attempting to burn versions try 1)creating duplicate files and/or sub-folders on the hard drive just as they are in Aperture.
    2)Then from Aperture, export the versions you are wanting burned into their appropriate folder/sub folder you have created.
    3) Close Aperture and then use "burn" to burn the folder/sub-folder structure you created.
    As a point of information, I use referenced files in Aperture which allows me to conveniently and effectively save copies of all master files. If I need versions (a project I am currently working on) I will export them and then burn them to disk. I am filing for copyright on these and think having those particular images set aside will be helpful ongoing, not to mention copied and saved.

  • Burn photo to dvd

    how can I burn Photo to a dvd

    Hi Martha1963,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below will show you how to burn your data to a DVD using the Finder application.
    Click on the link to see more details and screenshots. 
    Disc Burning Quick Assist
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1152#learn2
    Burning CDs and DVDs using the Finder in Mac OS X
    Use the Finder in Mac OS X if you want to burn specific files to a disc.
    Note: If you want to back up your entire system, you should use Time Machine (with a hard disk). Burning discs is a good choice for copying select files to a disc, rather than your entire system.
    In Mac OS X, you can either:
    Insert a blank disc, drag files you want to burn to the disc, then click Burn or choose Burn from the File menu. See this article for more information.
    or
    You can create a Burn Folder named with what you want your disc's name to be, fill it with content you want to burn to disc, click Burn when ready, and insert a disc when prompted. To create a Burn Folder, in the Finder choose New Burn Folder from the File menu.
    Cheers,
    - Judy
