Can I change the burn speed in compressor 4

First time trying to burn a 12 minute DVD from Compressor. I got an error that says use a different brand DVD (i have used memorex dvd's before with no problem) or burn at a slower speed. How do I adjust the burn speed?

Well, given that you can write an img, I'd guess the most likely culprits to be the media (hopefully) or the optical drive. Easiest step is to try a different brand. Bad batches are occasionally manufactured. FWIW, I am a long-time user of Verbatim and have rarely had a problem.
So try another brand and see whether it will burn from the disk image.
If it does not, try a short section of a different movie. And if that failed, it would point strongly toward the drive.
Good luck.

  • A WAY TO CHANGE THE BURN SPEED????

    Hi,
    I posted a similar question before, but didnt get a definative answer... I'll ask it in a more concise way. Is there a way to change the burn speed in DVD SP2? I didn't see any settings relating to that.
    Thanks,
    Lisa

    There is a work around. In DVD Pro, "format" with the output device set to disc and the format to ".img". When this is finished, open Disk Utility and "convert" the .img file to a CD/DVD master (.cdr). This file can then be used to burn to a blank DVD. If you click the options arrow in the burn dialog before beginning the burn, you can select a speed other than "maximum". Not elegant, but it works. My HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4165B DVD drive only succeeds at burning at its maximum rate about 1/3 of the time. However, at 12X it has been quite reliable.

  • Changing the Burning Speed in iTunes

    Has the option for changing the burning speed been taken away in the most recent version of iTunes. I thought this used to be an option under iTunes/Preferences, but I can't seem to find it. Any information about this would be appreciated.

  • How do you change the burn speed when making a CD?

    I have tried burning my iTunes purchases onto a CD, and when I try to play them back on my CD player, nothing happens. It will play back in iTunes on the Mac, but not on my CD player or in my car.
    I suspect it has to do with the speed at which they burn, but I have no idea how to change that?

  • How can you change the aquisition speed?

    I have a vi that gets temperature as a function of time from a thermocouple (MCC). I want the temperature to be sampled at different times not just every 5 seconds. How?

    Hi Nicholas3,
    I just want to verify that I understand your issue correctly. You are acquiring temperature data and want to slow you acquisition down, I am assuming that you are using a thermocouple and thus are using DAQmx to read said thermocouple. If this is correct the easiest way to accomplish this is to insert a wait into the acquisition loop. The wait functions are on the Timing palette. This will hold the loop for the specified number of milliseconds before allowing it to iterate. There is an excellent shipping example titled Cont Acq Thermocouple Samples-SW Timed.vi within this example this method of holding the loop is used. as illustrated in the screen shot from the example.
    What is happening is in the while loop a call to the DAQmx Read VI is made, pulling a single temperature sample from the DAQ device into PC memory. The while loop will then wait until the user specified amount of time has elapsed before iterating and pulling the next temperature sample from the DAQ device.
    Thanks

  • Changeing your burning speed

    I have had a few people tell me that if my dvd's are not playing on another dvd player to change the burning speed down to 1x or 2x how do you change your burning speed on idvd, I know this is a simple question for someone. I'm using a g-5 dual and fuji silver label dvd's. thanks

    thanks everyone I may just have to make a master copy and then burn it on toast because thats the only way I have found to change the burn speed and I am really getting tired of hearing clients tell me they can't play the dvd on there machine or laptop

  • Is there a way to Change the Writing Speed When Burning CD-R's?

    Is there a way to change the writing speed when burning CD-R's?
    I don't see any options in Disk Utility.
    Rob
    P.S. Since I am burning coasters lately with the Pioneer DVR-111D, I though that I might solve the problem by using a lower write speed.

    I dn't believe so with Disk Utility although you can with Roxio Toast Titanium. I would try another media brand, like Verbatim, as a first step and see if the coaster problem goes away.

  • Itunes can't burn this cd because the burn speed is too fast for your cd...

    For the first time since upgrading to 10.3.9 I'm trying to burn a data disc from iTunes to backup some files. It fails every time and ruins the blank CD. This is getting expensive!
    The CDs are Phillips CD-R 52x. (Yes, I've used blanks from this very box before the 10.3.9 upgrade and it never failed before.) iTunes was set to 24x burn then changed to "maximum possible" for the burn speed.
    Most times it looks like it's burning the playlist but around the 5th file it spits it out and gives the error "itunes can't burn this cd because the burn speed is too fast for your cd burner or media". Sometims it just locks up itunes with "checking media" and I have to force quit iTunes. Then the disc is ruined. It won't even show up in Finder.
    Ugh. Anyone know how to fix this?

  • Can you change the Bitrate when you use the "Compressor" High Quality...?

    I am having problems with the amount of video in DVD SP and I think I need to lower the bitrate when I compress out of FCP. Can you change the Bitrate when you use the "Compressor" High Quality setting?
    Thanks,

  • Can you change default burn output in DVDSP?

    Hi All
    I got a dual layer external burner (lacie D2) for my G5 dual2 which has a single layer superdrive inside. I encoded the movie file with Compressor, imported the assets to DVDSP and clicked burn as i usually do. DVDSP spits out the superdrive tray and asks for some suitable media to be placed in there, as it normally does.
    Q> How can I make DVDSP address the Lacie, when I click burn, instead of the G5 superdrive.?
    Cheers
    Jamie

    A> You can't
    Although the drive on the computer opens as usual you should be able to open the external drive, insert a blank DVD, close it and *in theory DVDSP should burn it. OR if you already have a blank DVD in the External drive before you try to burn in DVDSP then when you click burn your internal drive should not even open. If you have a blank DVD in the internal drive and a blank DVD in the External drive then DVDSP will burn a DVD onto the internal drive. I'm not %100 sure but try it out!
    Another alternative is to build the DVD in DVDSP and use Toast to format to the external drive. This is the preferred method since you can set the burn speed (DVDSP burns at the highest speed which increases the risk of burning coasters).
    Something else you might of wanted to consider is acquiring a Dual-Layer internal drive...

  • How can I change the preferred WiFi network in my MacBook Pro

    How can I change the preferred order of networks on my MacBook Pro? There used to be one network at my office. Now there is a second higher speed wifi network also present which I would prefer to connect to, but the Macbook connects to the older one unless manually changed.

  • How can I change the frame rate of a project in imovie 10?

    My problem is: I made a gopro movie with a frame rate of 50 fps. I imported it to imovie. So far so good.
    Scrubbing over the clip i found one single frame which looked amazing. So I draged some seconds of that clip into the timeline (the project if you will).
    The goal was to make a freeze frame out of this "spezial" frame.
    Unfortunately I could not find this frame in the timeline any more - it's gone.
    I think imovie dropped half of the frames to fit the clip into the projekt, which I assume is using 24-25fps.
    The only solution I found is to decrease the speed of the clip to let's say 50%.
    But is there a better way?
    Can I change the frame rate of the projekt somehow? I think it was possible in imovie 11.
    many thanks
    Rainer
    (from austria)

    iMovie 10 won't share at 50 fps and so for 25 fps output probably drops every other frame.  This is different from Imovie 9 which could handle 50 fps.  However, if you do 50% speed it will use all the available frames so that is indeed the way to find the frame you want.  After you have made a freeze frame I think you can switch the clip back to normal speed.  I am not aware of a better way in iMovie 10  By the way there is also no facility to export a still of a frame in iMovie.
    As a GoPro user I think FCP 10.1 would be the best choice.

    Hi
    In iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x)
    on top menu row - Apple/iMovie/File/Edit/Cut (Can vary dep. on language - in Swedish Apple/iMovie/Arkiv/Redigera/Klipp . . . )
    down Cut menu - Slow playback/Raspid Playback/Re-play in Slow Motion and onvards
    Here one can select the Pre-Set speeds
    Are you familiar with getting 'inspector' to run?
    No - but I guess that Double Click on clip/sequense or ctrl-Click on it might open it.

  • How do you reduce the burn speed on a pc???

    I've been getting the dreaded 4310 error and discovered, through searching the discussions, that reducing the burn speed could solve the problem. However, I can't find anything on how to do that on a pc? I have a compaq nc6000 laptop.
    I've had the problem only rarely before today but, for some reason, it is now happening on every cd I try to burn.
    Thanx!

    From the Edit menu select Preferences. Click the Advanced tab, then the Burning tab. You can set the burn speed there.
