Can I burn a DVD with both 4:3 and 16:9 from a HD video edited in FCP

I created a video in FCP from a HD video camera. I usally burn a wide screen DVD, but this time I want to burn a 4:3 dv DVD. Can this be done? And if it can how would I do it? Please help.

Hi:
In DVDSP you can set 16:9 tracks/menus to display letterboxed in 4:3 TVs and full screen in 16:9 ones. In the item properties you must set as Display Mode: 16:9 letterbox (no Pan&Scan).
No need to re-edit the source in a 4:3 timeline.
Hope that helps !
PS: . . . I have my helmet on my head ready for the POW !!!!

  • HOW to Burning A dvd with 5.1 audio AND WATCH IT AT HOME ?

    I have had I nightmare with the compressor application trying to burn 5.1 audio and the film together had no luck . I wonder what does a guy do to listen to 5.1 files in his home cinema set up ? I know that I can bounce the 5.1 audio into the film in logic but can I burn a dvd with the 5.1 audio and film and take it home and listen to what I have done in a non studio environment ?
    Would much appreciate some help on this cause frustration is not the word to discribe me going nuts for like 5 hours trying to figure out how that non musical program works .
    Thanks for any feedback ...

    Ah, got it.
    Since you have Compressor I would guess you also have DVD Studio Pro. Anyway a quick movie showing how to do it. Drag the m2v and audio into the asset bin (you will see it in the lower left of the movie) then it goes through the steps. Note the audio and video streams are not the same length, I just threw it together quickly to show you. Of course menus can be fanbcier and all the rest and there may be some gotchas in the details, but it will generally work. Also make sure to set a First Play for the disc. Usually it is good to have a small couple seconds of black frames or warning on a track before jumping off to the next thing, and you can set the Track to be first play in this case if you like. try to use good media (DVD-R/+R) brands like Taiyo Yuden, cheaper media can cause issues.

  • Can I burn a DVD with Leopard?

    I just purchased a new MacPro and it should arrive in about 2 weeks. A simple question. Can I burn a DVD using the OS or do I need a seperate software package to do this?
    I haven't used a MAC in about 20 years so I am a "newbie".

    You can burn a data DVD with Leopard's Finder:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8398.html
    or Disk Utility:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8729.html
    and the Mac Pro also ships with iDVD which supports up to 2 hours on a 4.7 GB DVD, and over 3 hours on an 8.4 GB Dual Layer DVD.
    Since I'm not as familiar with iDVD, you may want to post your question here if you plan on using it:

    Other movie DVD software made by third parties offer additional capabilities.

  • Can I use my iPod with BOTH a Mac and PC???

    Might be an odd question and forgive me if it is an obvious answer. I just got a 30 gigger and connnected it up and charged it with my Mac mini at home last night. I have lots of music on my iTunes on my home Mac mini and I have some music on my work Dell Laptop(with iTunes). What would be the best way to sync up my two iTunes libraries (one on my Mac, the other on the Dell lapper) to the iPod, or is it even possible to use it interchangeably with both the Mac and PC??

    Yes, you can.
    Read through the following article, and make sure your iPod is Windows-formatted using the iPod Updater utility on Windows.

    How can I burn a small movie file to a dvd that will play on a dvd player? I keep getting an error message "wrong type of disc" on my player. My burner is built in to my monitor. Will I have to buy software such as Toast to burn with?

    I'm using the burner utility that came with the computer. The video is on I took with my small camera. I'm using a DVD-r disc and I drag the file to the disc icon then hit burn and everything seems ok. I can remove the disc and put it back in and see the file but if I put it in a DVD player it won't play, just get error message.

    My MF4770n is connected to desktop pc with usb cable. Can I also add the network cable to router capability so that my laptops can access the printer through my home network? Or, do I need to uninstall the printer and run setup all over? I know that I can just "share" the desktop printer. But I would like access to it when the desktop pc is asleep. Thanks.

    It is possibile to have both.  It is not the best.  Pick one or the other.

  • Can I use my itunes with both my iphone and ipad using one computer?

    Can I sync my iphone and ipad on the same computer using itunes installed on the same computer?

    Yes - I sync my iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch with the same computer / iTunes and haven't had any issues when doing so. The computer's iTunes will recognise the device and what syncing selections you have for it, so you can have different selections of apps, music, films etc on them if you want.

  • How to burn a DVD with two audio track?

    There is a projet with the original video and a second audio track with music. I want to burn a DVD with both audio tracks. When playing the DVD you should be able to select audio track 1 (the original sound) or audio track 2 (the music). With Adobe Encore DVD it was easy to configure the two audio tracks and burn the DVD. It is posible to do the same from Adobe Premier Elements 11?
    Thanks,
    Jordi

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, PrE does not allow for supplemental Audio Tracks, when authoring.
    I use Adobe Encore for this, but it is only available bundled with Premiere Pro. I do not know if some other, third party, full-featured authoring apps., like Sony's DVD Architect can do that, but I would suspect that they can. The specifications for DVD Architect should have that information, and as it's quite common in full-featured authoring apps., I anticipate that it has that capability.
    If you do go with that program, our MOD, Steve Grisetti, has written a very good book on DVD Architect, and it's available at Muvipix.com.
    Good luck,

    You need Final Cut Studio to burn 5.1 on mac. (DVD Studio Pro, to be specific)
    Yes, IMO Apple really sells Logic users short on 5.1. Sure you can author, but no delivery platform unless you pony up $$$ for FCS.

  • How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

    How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

    Here's what you do to get Premiere CS6 + Encore:
    Just click here (it's the same link as the more information link in CC.)
    or
    Go to your Creative Cloud application (on the menu bar) and go to Adobe Premiere CC and click more information
    There is a dropdown menu that says "Adobe Premiere Pro CC" near the top.
    Click it and the other option is "Adobe Premiere Pro CS6."  Select that.
    Now on the top right corner of the page it has a download button that says "Download Adobe Premiere Pro CS6."
    It is included in your CC subscription.
    However, a word of warning, you cannot use Adobe Dynamic Link to link to a Premiere CC sequence directly in Encore.  A CS6 sequence still works fine, but if you have a CC project, you will need to encode your sequence into a DVD friendly format (MPEG2 file).  I'm really hoping that Adobe changes this in their upcoming release, and just adds the ability to import CC sequences into Encore, then I would be fine with them not including it in the normal CC package, or updating it.  But I haven't seen anything about it in the release notes.
    A lot of people still want their DVDs and it's a lot easier to just dynamically link the sequence.

  • How can I reclaim memory/storage so I can burn a DVD with iDVD?

    How can I reclaim memory/storage so I can burn a DVD with iDVD?

    Move your iPhoto Library and/or your iTunes library to and external HD that is formatted OS X Extended (journaled) and run them from there. Be sure to try the libraries on the EHD before you delete them from the boot drive.
    This should easily free up the 25 GB minimum needed for iDVD to create and burn video DVD efficiently.
    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.
