Can't burn from iDVD or disk utility?

Is my iMac just getting old or am I missing something?
In the past I have had no trouble burning DVd's from a disk image (and occasionally stragight from iDVD for that matter. Now I am getting error messages on almost every try.
I have saved my dvdproj to an disk image (.img file) and tried to burn a DVD from disk utility. This works for me on every other project I have done in the past. I was able to burn one DVD and then every time after I get the message "device drained its buffer... underrun protection" and it ejects my DVD without burning anything.
I have tried saving the entire project as a QT file, instead of exporting it from iMovie to iDVD so that it would be a "smaller" project (I'm down to 1.1 GB). I also have plenty of space on my iMAC (35 GB).
I need to burn 15 copies of this (16 minute) DVD... by Friday. I am pulling my hair out! Any suggestions? I would really appreciate some help.

Try this:
Repair Permissions from apple's disc utilities.
Drag and drop this file to the trash:
com.apple.iDvd.plist
Empty the trash.
Restart the computer.
Then i'd like you to make a disc image from the file menu w/in iDVD6.

Post back when you get this far.... because I'll also will ask you to change medias if you are not currently using Verbatim or Maxell DVD-R.

Can't burn a DVD using IDVD nor Disk Utility- first time user-what is wrong

The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)
May 13, 2007 8:05pm PDT
IDVD Version 6.0.3
Emac- OS 10.3.9--- in the owner's manual it DOES state my emac can burn DVDs. Is this correct?
I keep getting this error message after about 20 minutes of programming the DVD-- then it ejects with this message:
"The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)"
When using the IDVD application to burn my slideshow onto a DVD; Then I contacted Apple Care and I was told to use Disk Utility to burn my DVD in lieu of IDVD not working.
I converted my slideshow into a .dmg format; all was verified successfully. Then I receive this error message when attempting to BURN DVD:
"STOP The device drained its buffer without burn under run protection"
I made a WONDERFUl slideshow-- of only 17 slides-- confirmed I have plenty of room on hard drive and et al on the "disk information". I have attempted since May 7th to get this DVD to burn my slideshow. PLEASE HELP ME!!! I have deadlines-- now it is for Tuesday May 15th. Please alert me to an alternative until I can get my Emac working properly on what I can do to make copies of my slideshow ASAP. Thank you.
Now I looked thru your ERROR message archives and found NONE to match mine. What do these error messages mean-- is my Emac not working? This is first time ever I tried to use IDVD and IMovie and Disk Utility--- so the first impression is VERY VERY VERY bad for Apple's "easy to use for first time customers"....

Well I had to make the copies for my presentation-- so the cheapest I could find in my area was Walgreens-- 39.99 for ONE COPY of a DVD! So I paid $70.00 and the clerk made 4 copies for me;-) So thanks Walgreens!
Now-- my Mac-- I could not find anything on shelves at Walgreens or Office Depot but the FujiFilm I already have... So I now have time to look elsewhere.
I did PRAM my Emac 3 times-- I tried these things also:
1)Saved the IDVD- .dmg format to QuickTime .mov
I uploaded to google video.com or whatever-- they use their own software-- .gvp file and player. All was successful (even now on YouTube-
2) I then made another version in PowerPoint and saved it as an MPEG
Also for below-- I lowered the burn rate upon the 2nd try to 1x-- took one hour or more (I went to get a root canal... then exfoliate... then I came back;-)
Also tried different .mov from the web-- a great whale shark video that was only 49mb. My presentation is 120 mb. So I was just thinking-- make it smaller; burn slower.
3)I did try to burn from IDVD, Disk Utility and then the drag and burn/click method on the desktop-- put a blank DVD in-- drag the .mov icon to the blank DVD -- write a title for the blank DVD- formats it / Drag to trash-- Burn icon comes up/ Clicked it-- waited 20 minutes and received:
"Error: Error occurred while burning the disc. This disc can not be used."
So I put in another blank Fuji DVD-- just in case. Same error message-- so I am hoping it is the DVD itself and not the SuperDrive.
4)Also-- I tried to do audio CD burn-- just to make sure about the drive-- all was successful and I did a back up of my Itunes files-- 6 CDs they burned (they meaning "the Gods of Mac OS" ;-0 My audio CDs are Office Depot CD-R 52X700mb/ So the generic is better for CDs on my Emac that I know;-)
So I will use my weekend to try other DVDs-- and I have the safety net of Apple Care-- but then just realized-- my Extended Care plan is OVER at May 30, 2007!!! I called to ask to EXTEND it further-- I'll pay whatever-- NOPE-- 3 years was max on this contract. So any repairs I have to pay for after May 30th-- ISN'T THAT JUST THE WAY THE WORLD GOES? The DAY after your warranty on AnYTHING-- the thing goes kablooey?
But I still have days left--- and I know of a good Mac Repair person in area-- but it is just so darn difficult to move my desktop Emac (I got the GLASS monitor to save $300 or something) Weight Lifting is what it is-- weighs about 45lbs or more.
But it seems it may be the media I am using if the CD burner is working, right?
I can update-- if you want me to email direct-- just give me a note (my email is listed). Thanks all!!! I just want to impress everyone of how tenacious I am to find that my Emac is FINE-- it is just ME that is warped;-)

After burning from iDVD...

After completing my final project in iDVD and burning to DVD looks bad on a HDTV flat screen. I use a Sony AVCD SR-11 HD camcorder.

Hi
There are no HD version of iDVD till yet.
SD version is equal to old TV standard and that is max from iDVD
To get HD You need
• Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl Blue-Ray component
• Blue-Ray burner and disks (DVD can be used for small projects about 20 minutes)
• Blue-Ray Player eg PlayStation 3 (even for the DVD made after BR-standard)
There are factors that might reduse the quality from iDVD below SD standard.
My collection on this
*DVD quality*
1. iDVD 08 & 09 has three levels of qualities.
iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality (movies up to 120 min.) - BEST
• Best Performances (movies less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
• High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
2.Video from
• FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not selfcontaining, no conversion)
• iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
when the movie includes photos. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
• iMovie’08 not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly eg x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09 this can also be set)
This can also be done with (Apple) Disk Util tool.
4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc).
5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW)
7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
8. Don’t burn more than three DVD at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while befor next batch.
iDVD quality also depends on.
• HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx 25Gb.
less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
• What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
• What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
(If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JESDeinterlacer3.2.2 do the conversion)
(Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
(US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
(EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
UNLESS. They are plabacked by a Mac - then You need not to care
• What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
• How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
Best / High Performances (most often my choise before Pro Quality)
1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
(x4 by some and may be even better)
2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
Region codes.
iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
1 = US
2 = EU

What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario

Can't burn a iDVD movie I created.

Created a movie in iMovie, sent it to iDVD and set up chapters etc. Viewed the whole movie in the iDVD preview and there were no problems, buttons work great everything works fine. Send it to burn the DVD, it goes through setting up the menu, compressing the file, etc. Once it starts to actually burn the DVD, it spits it out and the following message comes up:
The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)
So I have iDVD create an image file of the movie. Try burning that in Toast and it spits the DVD out and gives the following message:
The drive reported an error:
Sense Key = Medium Error
Sense Code = 0x73, 0x03
So now I try burning the DVD with Disk Utility. Get the following message:
Unable to burn "disk 2" - The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media.
All of these were tried using both TDK and Verbatim media.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, john
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) PowerBook G4 - 1.25 GHz - 1 GB SDRAM - MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-815 Superdrive

Yes the blanks blanks are the correct media. The drag is... Apple replaced the SuperDrive in November 2006 and this is the first time I've tried to burn something from iDVD. Because it's no longer on warranty, I'm sure they'll make me buy a new SuperDrive.

Can't burn my IDVD project on a DVD or the desktop

Hello,
I made a project with IDVD and now I want to burn it on a DVD, but this is not working.
First it seems to work, but then when he is at the stage to burn the movies and slideshows. IDVD gives the error with encoding/ decoding. I tried it several times but I get all the time the same error.
I tried to copy my file on the desktop, but I got the same problem.
Could anybody please help me?!
Thanks!
Monique

What version of iMovie? iMovie '08 or iMovie HD (v. 6)?
What brand and format DVD? You should use DVD-R. Verbatim works perfectly for me. Memorex and TDK have bad track records here...
Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

The error #-2147352543 was reported- when burning from iDVD

I created a DVD project in iDVD and used Share to use iDVD. When I click the burn button I get this error: "The error #-2147352543 was reported…" I clicked on the map and there are no error triangles. The error appears almost immediately. My iDVD software is up to date. I was able to burn a short DVD a few days ago without problems.
Please help.

error message as soon as I click the burn button.

Copying a data DVD works fine. The drag is, Apple replaced the SuperDrive in November 2006. It wasn't until now that I've tried burning a DVD from iDVD. I have a funny feeling they'll make me buy a whole new SuperDrive.

New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk.

New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk. The 'checking playlist' now takes about one second, looks very much like a malfunction here. Seems to initialize the disk - them moves straight into 'burning/finalizing disk' which also takes about one second. Then 'burning - finishing disk takes a little longer -
Error reading is "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The disk drive didn't respond properly an can't recover.'
This happend once before a while back and I thought it was 'too skinny disks'. Using 'printable disks; seemed to fix the problem - until now.
Blank cd's can be opened in the finder and files burnt to them.
DVD's can be burned from DVD Pro.
Music cd's and dvd's can be played.
Just can't burn the itunes playlist.

From your iMac? OS 10.9.2? iTunes? Other? please give as much info as you can about your system hardware and peripherals, OS, software, etc. Is this misbehavior new? First try? You get the idea, too much info is not possible.

Can't Zap the P-RAM , Can't start from an installer disk with the C-Key...

Can't Zap the P-RAM , Can't start from an installer disk with the C-Key... or The D-Key for Apple Hardware test or run with the shift Key in Safe Mode!!!
About a week ago I started to have problems with the Mac after 10.5.6! First the Mac after shut down would restart on its own in 10 to 15 minutes. I read in various forums about some of the 10.5.6 problems. I did a clean reinstall where the Mac created a previous system folder. After this suddenly mail, I-Chat as well as some other programs would open, then close immediately! Since I did not have things backed up because I didn't have a large drive, I dragged my files and apps to another drive and reformatted the drive zeroing out all data and did a fresh new install then brought in the combo 10.5.6 update.The Mac is running correctly but I can't Zap the P-Ram, startup from the Mac OS X installer Dvd with the C key or run Apple Hardware Test with the D key or boot in safe mode with the shift key. I can boot any of the Bootable disks from the start-up Disk in Preferences.
I went over this with Apple and they suggested I run the Apple Hardware test. It won't run on this machine because I can't boot it with the D- Key. I ran tech Tools and every single thing checks out OK! This Mac has worked great since I got it in I believe Feb or March of 2007.

Make sure that you don't have firmware password protection enabled. It will prevent some boot key shortcuts from working, like clearing NVRAM, etc. You can disable firmware password protection by booting off the OSX DVD and loading the utility.

I can no longer repair permissions with Disk Utility, v. 13

After installing iTunes update 11.1, I can no longer repair permissions with Disk Utility, v. 13. When I attempt to repair Disk Permissions, there appear dozens of items showing that "Permissions differ on "Applications/iTunes.app....", then it says that it has been repaired. However, when I do a second or third repair immediately afterwards, I see the same thing again.

Why i can't erase the hd in disk utility

i'm using os x lion and can't erase my hd using disk utility, what i need to do is create a bootcamp partition but the system won't let me unless i first erase my hd, recover using time machine and then try again the bootcamp partition, any help?
thx!

Your hard disk is probably fragmented. You have several options:
1. Use a 3rd party disk defragmenter like idfrag and defragment your drive (may or may not work)
2. Go to disk utility and repair the volume (works for some)
3. Do a complete reinstall (like you said)
I'm sorry, but I don't really know how to wipe it. Try some Google searches or take it to an apple store to get some proffesional help. You could always try the other two options though.
Good luck, sorry I can't help much,

Can't use this version of Disk Utility.app with this version of os x question

can't use this version of Disk Utility.app with this version of OS X 10.9.2

Hi barcolana,
If you are having issues using Disk Utility on your Mac running OS X Mavericks 10.9.2, you may want to make sure that you are booting to Recovery before using Disk Utility; you may find the following article helpful:

2Can't burn a DVD using IDVD nor Disk Utility first time user-what is wrong

T he recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)
IDVD Version 6.0.3
Emac- OS 10.3.9--- in the owner's manual it DOES state my emac can burn DVDs. Is this correct?
I am using FujiFilm DVD-R . Never used the DVD apps or burner before. I PRAM'ed 3 times. Also did 6 CD audio burns to check the drive. Is it the media-- Fuji does not work? I used Office Depot generic for audio CD-Rs.
I keep getting this error message after about 20 minutes of programming the DVD-- then it ejects with this message:
"The recording device reported the media error: Power calibration area error. (0x73, 0x03.)"
When using the IDVD application to burn my slideshow onto a DVD; Then I contacted Apple Care and I was told to use Disk Utility to burn my DVD in lieu of IDVD not working.
I converted my slideshow into a .dmg format; all was verified successfully. Then I receive this error message when attempting to BURN DVD:
"STOP The device drained its buffer without burn under run protection"
I made a WONDERFUl slideshow-- of only 17 slides-- confirmed I have plenty of room on hard drive and et al on the "disk information". I have attempted since May 7th to get this DVD to burn my slideshow. PLEASE HELP ME!!! I have deadlines-- now it is for Tuesday May 15th. Please alert me to an alternative until I can get my Emac working properly on what I can do to make copies of my slideshow ASAP. Thank you.
Now I looked thru your ERROR message archives and found NONE to match mine. What do these error messages mean-- is my Emac not working? This is first time ever I tried to use IDVD and IMovie and Disk Utility--- so the first impression is VERY VERY VERY bad for Apple's "easy to use for first time customers"....
Oh to add information-- I DO have an external DVD recorder-- have yet to even see how to hook it up to my Emac-- if this is an alternative to meet my Tuesday deadline-- PLEASE let me know-- how do I burn a copy of my slideshow into an external DVD recorder?
My emac model: 1.25 GHz Power PC G4
Memory 256 MB DDR SDRAM
Machine Model: eMac
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz

Boot ROM Version: 4.8.2f1

Also did 6 CD audio burns to check the drive. Is it the media-- Fuji does not work?
Your drive is actually TWO devices - one set of optics and laser burns/reads CDs, another set of optics/laser reads/wtites DVDs. The fact that your drive can burn CDs doesn't mean it is working for DVDs.

You might want to get back to Applecare and expalin again the error messages you are seeing. They really don't involve iDVD.
I converted my slideshow into a .dmg format; all was verified successfully. Then I receive this error message when attempting to BURN DVD:
"STOP The device drained its buffer without burn under run protection"
You either have a media problem or you have a DVD burner problem.

I can't burn my iDVD project to a DVD

After creating my project the burn button does not respond. I had a newer version of iDVD (7.0.3) so I installed on my iMac. After installing all the updates I opened the iDVD program. I then got this message on the screen. "Your Macintosh does not have a supported superdrive. Please note that while you will be able to work with iDVD projects you will not be able to burn a DVD disc." Can anyone direct me to a solution to this problem?

I believe that you will need to save it from iDVD to a disc image. Then you could write that image to an external DVD writer via Disk Utility. You probably should verify this in the iDVD discussion area.

TA26404 Can I burn an iDVD on a usb and watch it on a regular computer?

I needed to make a movie for school and it came out perfect. Can I burn it onto a USB and watch it on a regular computer?

No, you can burn it to a flash drive. Burn it to a DVD disk and any computer that can play DVD videos will be able to play your DVD.
Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality final product:
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 and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was 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.
What do you mean by a "regular" computer? What are you using to create the iDVD project, an irregulary computer?
