Can CS4 export HD (AVCHD) to a DVD?

I'm using CS4 on an i7 PC. Results are great from my new AVCHD camera, however at present I don't have a blu-ray recorder, only a DVD.
I therefore would like to create a "mini" Blu-Ray disk using my DVD recorder. I understand some of the low-cost editing software can do this but I dont think CS4 can. You get about 25 mins with the sony s/w that came with my camera. Its looks superb on a PS3.
Is there a way round this problem - such as exporting it into a new hi-def file and then importing it inot Sony Vegas or Pinnacle Studio?
Cheers
Jez

Not that I could find. Nero also can. You could try burning a bluray BD folder (that will fit on a DVD) and use ImgBurn or similar to see if it will burn to DVD

Can you export as AVCHD if you use "Matched sequence"?

As far as I know, "Matched sequence" means that you will export the file exactly the same as your sequence settings. Adobe says that you can't export to AVCHD, you can only import AVCHD but you have to export to something like MPEG 2.
So what if I export a AVCHD sequence as "Matched sequence"? Will the final export be a AVCHD file or something different?
How do I check if the exported file is a AVCHD file?

Where it says "Format" that would be the exporter you'd want to use from Premiere Pro or AME.
1.Youtube.
Format: H.264. There is a preset for YouTube 720p that you can use as a baseline; increase the dimensions to 1080p, change the frame rate, and I set the bit rate to 8mbps target/10mbps maximum for my YouTube 1080p uploads. Save this as a preset so you can reuse it later.
2.Delivery for TV broadcast.
That's hard to answer; every broadcaster will want different deliverables. You'll need to check with their requirements. I deliver everything from H.264 MP4s, Avid MOVs, DV AVIs, and HD MPEG2 files--it's sort of a mish-mash so it's not really possible or practical to give you a set number of parameters for this one.
3.Archival use on my computer.
You could use an uncompressed AVI or MOV (Format: Microsoft AVI/QuickTime, Codec: None), but they will be very large files. Why not just keep the footage and the project file? You could also try a lossless codec like the Ut Video Codec Suite or (my preference) Lagarith Lossless Video Codec. Both are free, Windows-only, and appear as codecs under Microsoft AVI. They're both good; they'll be big files as well, but not quite as big as uncompressed.
4.To burn to DVD.
5.To burn to blue ray.
Premiere Pro has specific exporters for both of these; check out Format: MPEG2-DVD for DVD and Format: MPEG2 Blu-ray or H.264 Blu-ray for BD. You can also just send your sequence to Encore and let it pick the best settings based on your desired output format; select your sequence and go to File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Send to Encore.
6.To upload and sell the footage on a website like shutterstock.
Just like #2 above, you'll need to check with the specific stock service what their requirements are. They should be pretty simply spelled out, and then you can choose the format and codec based on those requirements. Googling for the particular service and other users' experiences would help, too.

How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs?

(Fifth futile attempt in two hours, before I learned there was a Post webpage – I’m new to ApSuppCom - and after I learned that I am not allowed to update previous content, so I had to back out, make a few changes, and start over.)

I cannot do a copy (export) without various error messages appearing and the inevitable stoppage occurring. Always with the DVD Video Player final message reading, “Supported disc not available.” Advisors and Mac Geniuses at local Apple Stores have told me to try Roxio Toast.

At future events soon, I hope to be handing out these finished DVDs (free) to the people in them. Any help will be greatly appreciated. A.Z.

How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?
Aperture cannot burn slideshows to a DVD. It only can export a video of your slideshow.
In Aperture 3 you use the "Export" button in Aperture's slideshow project to render a video to a folder on your disk.
Then you use iDVD or another program to burn a video DVD.

Could you please describe the exact steps that are causing these error messages?
How are you exporting your slideshow from Aperture? Which settings are you using? And how are you importing the video to iDVD or Toast to burn a video DVD?

How can I export movies containing Panasonic LX-5 AVCHD clips?

When I use AVCHD video clips that I've imported into iMovie in a project from my Panasonic Lumix LX-5, I can't export that project. I get this error message: "Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-50)"
Anybody else had this problem using AVCHD video recorded with the LX-5 or any other camera?

Save the clips as Quicktime files (full quality), then you can import them into later versions of iMovie. An iMovie 6 project would not be compatible with recent versions of iMovie.

In photoshop 10 when I export an album to a dvd I can't open it on my computer with windows 7 what do I do

IN photoshop 10 when I export an album to a dvd, I can't op@en it on my computer with windows 7. Help

The ! means that iPhoto cannot find the master or original file.
Assuming that these same photos behave correctly in the main library then it suggests the burn has gone wrong somewhere.
As a matter of interest... why are you burning libraries to DVD? If it's a form of back up then it's a dead end. Your next version of iPhoto won't be able termed or work with them, and your next Mac won't have an optical drive.

Exporting fce4 avchd edited movie to dvd-r for ps3 play back

Hello,
Im trying to figure out how to take an AVCHD edited movie from fce4 and burn it to dvd-r so i can play it back on ps3 at full hd resolution. Thanks for any help!

You can't do it with iDVD.
You can do it with Toast 9 and DVD Studio Pro (which is part of Final Cut Studio).

I changed the captions for my family photos to include names, but when I exported the photos to make DVD's for family members, the old captions were there and not the new ones. How can I make a DVD to include the new captions with names?

I have labeled old family photos with names that I would like to share at a family reunion via DVD. When I export the photos to make the DVD, the old photo labels are back rather than the new labels with names. Can I export the photos with the new titles?

iPhoto shows you these Titles but the Finder shows you Filenames
If you export (File -> Export) you'll get the Export dialogue. Note the option at FileName to use the Title as filename for the exported photo

Ask in the iDVD forum on what's the best way out of iPhoto and into iDVD. The resident expert there, Bengt Wärleby, can give you the best option.

So it sounds like you are trying to burn a DVD with photos on it so the photos can be either transferred to or displayed on a Windows PC, is that correct?
For the purposes of this I am going to assume you are using iPhoto '11.
Gather the photos you want to burn to DVD in one album in iPhoto. This is not absolutely necessary but it sure makes things easier for me.
Select that album, then go to the File menu and select Export...
In the dialog that shows up, select the File Export tab. Select the setting you want to use for export. Click the Export button.
Another dialog will show up. Set the location to Desktop and click the New Folder button. Name the folder something nice and descriptive and click the Create button.
Click the OK button. Quit iPhoto as the rest of this work will be done in the Finder.
You will now have a folder on your desktop with that nice descriptive name. Find it and select it. Go to the File menu and from it select Burn "Descriptive folder name" to Disc...
Insert a blank DVD when prompted.
Let the finder complete the work and eject the disc afterwards.
That's it. Best of luck.

Export Project to Auto-Play DVD in CS4?

I'm trying to burn a DVD of my project. I don't want to author any menus and I just want a simple auto-play DVD of my finished timeline.
I don't see any "Export to Encore" option like in CS3. I have tried Export>Media and choosing MPEG2-DVD. However, this only loads the Media Encoder Queue and gives me no burning options.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

I've used the version of Premiere your talking about (pre-Encore) and your right, very limited.
However, I'm refering to the fact that CS3 (utilizing the File>ExportToEncore command) would automaticaly launch the program and burn the disc for you.
Yes, I used the 2.0 feature quite a bit. For my in depth authoring, I used DVDit Pro (um, yeh, that's right, I didn't do any in depth authoring back then). Forget that it was limited (it did not even open Encore), it was very automatic. And I hear you; when I moved to CS3, I really missed having that feature for testing DVD output, and for some finals (but not many). I did not think the CS3 setting was automatic enough, but I was hooked on having even a simple menu, so I rarely used the quick CS3 option - hey, I had Encore.
But as a practical matter, what are you really losing? And don't forget the parts of CS3 that were not automatic that are now. For the kind of quick option you are doing, you must be okay with Encore's automatic transcode setting, right?
CS3 required you to set the transcode settings, name the file that would be exported, and remember to put a disk in the drive!
CS4 requires you to dynamic link to Encore, name the Encore project, (it creates the timeline and sets it as first play), and click the build tab and burn (yeh, after remembering to put a disk in the drive).
Anyway, if you're the only one that submits a feature request, Adobe is not going to think that adding this feature back is going to be worth it. If there are a bunch who do, they take more notice and look at what their "cost" is to do so.

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.

How can I export a large project to multiple DVD's

I am trying to export a project to a DVD. The .approject it creates is too big to fit onto one DVD. It is about 9GB. I have tried exporting it and then using right-click on the .approject to Show Package Contents. I then burned the the indvidual files in this to about 3 DVD's. How can I re-import this to another computer/ Aperture library? Can I simply read all the dvds into to a folder named ...approject and then try and import this?

There are other more hackish solutions but I'm going to point you to DropDMG which works great for your purpose, making backups to CD/DVD, making online backup segments, and optionally encrypting all the previous.
I'm not associated with the vendor, just a satisfied customer. You know you should also be making backups, so it's $20 well spent.

Can I burn AVCHD project to DVD disc?

I've read that AVCHD uses the DVD format. Does this mean that the nice HD camcorder recordings I have will, after being processed by PE, show nicely on a wide screen television? Does this question even make sense.

AVCHD is High Definition, a DVD is Standard Definition
For true AVCHD quality on a disc, you need BluRay (which Premiere Elements will do, if you have a BluRay burner)
There IS a way to put "about" 20 minutes of HiDef on a BluRay, but it will NOT play in a DVD player, the disc will only play in a BluRay player

Make sure External Device under Export is enabled in the Playback Settings of the Program monitor.
