Can't Go Back a Slide When Exported to DVD Format

I'm having a difficult time trying to get what I want done through Keynote.
I have a slideshow that I want to export to a DVD so I can run a slideshow through a DVD player where it plays a slide then stops then I click the next button and it plays and stops. This seems to work EXCEPT... I can't go backwards it will only allow me to go forwards.
Now to clarify I'm testing this before I burn it to disk through the iDVD player. Has anyone else ran into this problem?

If I lost my Iphone 5 with I cloud can I get back my photo when I buy another new iPhone 5?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Only if you made a backup of the old iPhone which includes the photos you had stored in Camera Roll (if the photo you want to restore is there) or if the photo was stored in Photo Stream. In both of the cases, you will be able to get back the photo, but note that Photo Stream deletes photos 30 days after adding them

Poor video Quality when exporting to DVD

I cant seem to get a clear video. I am downloading from DV from a canon and the quality is sentational.
When on the time line averything is brilliant. When rendereing everything is still ok.
When exporting to DVD it goes pear shaped. I have tried dozens of different variations with the same results.
I am in AUstralia and am using PAL.
I get motion blur and what appears to be very poor quality result after exporting.
Help... I dont have much hair left.

@Harm,
"Pear-shaped" (or sometimes "fruit-shaped") is a euphemism meaning that the effort has gone awry; it was a mess.
@John,
Export to DVD is a PPro 2.0 function; in CS3 it is now Export to Encore. Is that what you meant?
First thing is to check the field orders of your source material and of your export settings. Don't invert them, and don't deinterlace interlaced footage.
Perhaps a short list of the settings you have tried (and why you chose those settings) would help us help you.

Bug: Can't view photos in a slide when Exporting to PDF viewing files on XP

Hi,
I'm completely new to the discussion forum.
So hope this hasn't been covered, but the bug is there none the less.
When Exporting a Keynote 09 slide or slides that use some of the
new Layout themes(Kyoto style etc), nothing shows up when the
PDF is opened on Windows XP machines.
I have tried it on several machines at work and at schools,
and cant get photos or text to show up.
This never happened in 08, as i often have to use PDF to do presentations
at schools that dont have powerpoint no their pcs. PDF exporting
is really important in my daily work with keynote.
I really hope there is a fix or that Apple can release a fix
for this bug, as I would love to use the new layout themes
in presenting.
Strangely older themes have no problem opening and show all text and
photos as they should when exported using keynote 09 to pdf...
so i assume its an issue with the newer themes only ;(
wierd.. (cries)
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me here. Apple!!! I luv you
but this issue is annoying the heck out of me.
D

Wow, thank you so much for quick replies!
Ok ill try and explain more.
1) I used to the Export feature (now I used SHARE > Export > choose PDF > save to desktop... view it.. its all good)
2) I then save the file onto a flash drive and put in a XP OS run PC
3) The slide background only shows up.. i.e. no content just the template itself
4) This only happens to the newer templates.
5) This happens when dragging a picture into the preset template picture boxes,
the picture just doesnt show up on the pc
6) havent checked file sizes, because i could do this process on keynote 08.. so i assumed its a BUG and not the fault of mine
7) Most importantly, i can do the same process and it works with the keynote 08
backgrounds and themes within 09.. but i cant get my PDFs on an XP to show when using the newer themes... just shows blank themes.. even for Kyoto theme, the tea pot picture isnt there.. its just the background
i am thinking of taking my mac into a mac store,
but im almost certain this is a bug.
to view the PDF on both my macbook and on XP i just double click
whats on the desktop and it usually shows.. but since buying 09,
as i said before, i can only get this to work for slides that use
the old 2008 keynote templates ;( ;(
i have not tried exporting using the print feature.. i will give that a shot today. but its so wierd that it shows up for some templates and not for others.
thanks again for your kind help. i really appreciate the time and effort
you are all putting in in helping.

Edited photo changes back to original when exported

I did some editing on a photo using the iPhoto editor - changed it from color to B&W and did some other tweaking. Saved the photo with the changes and exported it. The exported picture is the original color photo. Tried exporting it right to Flickr using the link in iPhoto and the photo came out in color. Quit iPhoto and restarted it. The photo in the library is in B&W, but when exported changes back to color.
Unfortunately I don't have Photoshop on my laptop.........so I can't do any changes there.
GRRRRRRR.............

Sounds like your database is damaged.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Disappointing quality when exporting to DVD - how do I improve this?

Hi,
I've spent quite a long time producing beautiful slideshows in iPhoto '08 - complete with soundtrack, Ken Burns affects and transitions. I wished to burn this slideshow to DVD, but I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the final result.
Compared to playback on my iMac, the slideshow on the DVD was very grainy and jerky. I have a HD (1080i) plasma at home, with an upscaling DVD player. DVD movies are excellent quality with my home cinema set-up, so I'd like to achieve similar results with the slideshow movie I create from iPhoto.
When exporting from iPhoto, the maximum resolution I seem to be able to specify is 640 x 480 pixels, which to be quite frank is rubbish.
Is there anyway that I can export a higher definition slideshow movie? If I purchase Quicktime Pro, will I be able to do this? I don't want to spend money upgrading to Quicktime Pro, if I can't produce a better quality output from iPhoto (or iDVD for that matter).
Can anyone advise?
Many thanks in anticipation.

iDVD creates presentations that are 640 x 480 in size. That's the standard for TV. I create all of my iDVD slideshow in iDVD and, IMO, get better image quality when played. I don't get to use the KB effect but it's not one of my favorites anyway so it doesn't matter.
You could create the slideshow in iMovie (iMovie 6 is my preferred version) and then after you've got the slideshow as you want quick iMovie, launch iDVD and drag the iMovie project file into iDVD. That will prevent iMovie from encoding the movie before importing into iDVD where it will get encoded a second time. This lets iDVD to the encoding and will give better results.
If you add the movie project to an iDVD slideshow (doesn't have to have any photos in it) the movie will be scaled to the TV safe area and not get affected by the TV overscan issue that movies added to iDVD as movies do. They lose about 10% of the image due to the overscan. It's the nature of the beast. iDVD 7 will not scale them to the safe area if they are added to an iDVD created slideshow and can have be included with photos also.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Change in color when exporting to dvd. Please help

I have some AVCHD footage that looks great when exported to quicktime. But when burning to DVD with iDVD all colors are "stronger", especially red. (Skincolor get way too much red).
This appears both when playing back the DVD on the Mac or on a LCD screen. Have I done something wrong?

Yes, you didn't properly monitor your footage. Sorry to be so blunt.
If you want to know what your footage looks like on a TV, you need to monitor it on a TV. Your computer monitors will not get you the same colors. And since you are working with AVCHD footage that you will downconvert to a standard def DVD, you'll need something that can downconvert to SD.
Cheapest option? Decklink Intensity Pro (www.decklink.com). This requires that you have a PCIe Intel Mac Pro or Quad G5. It can downconvert the HD to SD so you can connect it to your TV and see what you will really be getting. There are other Decklink options as well that are more expensive, as well as solutions from www.aja.com and the MXO from www.matrox.com.

Why can't I get wide screen when burning a dvd?

My sequence is all 1920x 1080 HD footage in mpeg2. My photos are all 1920 x1080 px. In encore if I want to burn a standard DVD it automatically goes to 720x480 if I choose " mpeg2dvd" format. Why isn't there a wide screen mpeg2 dvd format?

Colin, what you show is the dialog box when I do file> export media, right? Except mine is different (Pr 5.5 iss different?) and has a check box for "match source attributes" and when that is checked the format box is grayed out. And I don't see where you can customize anything.
What's the purpose of File>export media if it doesn't create a dvd?
If i do File> dyn link> send to encore there is no dialog box like you showed. it doesn't give any choices except dvd or blu ray and no "wide screen".
Are you all saying that 720x480 is all you get on a dvd and if your source is 16x9 it will squish it to fit? aren't hollywood dvd's in 16x9?

Poor DVD Quality when exporting to DVD

I have an HD timeline with XDCam footage 1080i. I have been trying to export to DVD and everytime I export I get poor quality video. The image shows distortion and pixelation. My client is not very happy with the final product and I'm just running out of asnwers. I have tried exporting using Dynamic Link, Media Encoder and I get exactly the same result. I have tried exporting the first 15 min with same results. Jagged edges, etc.
I just upgraded to CS5 from CS4 hoping to resolve the problem and I get the same result. I only have the problem while exporting to DVD in MPEG format. Blu-Ray format works great.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Ann
    Here are the specs of my PC.
     Dell Workstation T7500
     12Gb RAM
     Quad Core Xeon E5520 2.27 CPUs
     Vista 64Bit OS
     Terrabytes and Terrabytes of RAID storage. Too many to mention.
I can edit HD content in real time and works great the only issue I'm having at this point is just Encoding HD to SD. The encoding is normally done fairly fast, except for HD wich takes almost a whole day to encode when delivered in HD. Right now is taking longer because I'm trying to go from interlaced to progressive I guess.
Question regarding your settings.
My settings are different than yours on:
     Quality = 5
     Field Order = Lower (Could this be the problem?)
Thanks

Dropping zeros when exported to CSV format

I formated in Numbers using 5 digit place holder and setting "hide seperator" and "show zeros" This looks perfect in Numbers but when I export to CSV (I want to import the mailing list to AddressBook) it drops the front zero. I tried formating a new column as text and pasting the list into it, but it turned into numerical format and dropped the zero again when exported to CSV. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can't help but feel I am being stupid. This shouldn't be so difficult.

I did the following test:
1) I formatted a column as text and entered several cells worth of 5-digit zip codes that had leading zeros.
2) I formatted a column with a custom format of five digits, leading zeros, and no separator. I typed in a few numbers with less than five digits and they displayed with leading zeros. No surprise there.
3) I formatted a column as text and copy/pasted from column in (2) to this text-formatted column. I was actually surprised it kept the leading zeros because the underlying data (a bunch of 3 and 4 digit numbers) does not actually have them.
4) I exported this file as CSV.
5) I opened the CSV in TextEdit and the leading zeros were there in all three of these columns.
This all seems to be working as you would want it to. Am I doing something different than you?
To complete the test, I opened the CSV with Numbers and it dropped all the leading zeros upon import. But you are not re-importing it into Numbers so this last step wasn't really a fair test.

No Sound When Exporting a DVd

I am using Adobe Premiere CS4 and when I try to export a DVD to a file to be used either on Easy Worship or any other program I have no sound. CAn you help?

Jeff,
Sorry for the confusion. I am wanting to import into to Easy Worship. The computer I am using for Easy Worship is a little old. It is Windows XP Pro, 2.3 GHz and 2 GB of Ram. When I export a Mpeg2 file I have to compress the video down to 540 x 320 and it is a little pixel. If I go over 540 then the sound becomes really distorted. When I export is as a DVD-MPEg the video quality is a lot clearer. Takes a bit longer to export as well.
If it is not to much to ask. How to I export this file into Easy Worship so that it will look great. If I export a DVD how do I combine the Video and Audio so that I can just transfer it on a flash drive rather than DVD.
Once again, I am using a MAc Snow Leopard. 3.06 GHz INtel Core 2 dual 4 GB Ram 500 Gig Hard Drive.

Flash CS4: why movie clips are static when exporting to video formats ?

Does anyone know why the movie clips are non animated when I export my flash animation into a video format ?
Please see the next flash example I made: (4 KB)
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22717206/Flash/flash_movieclip.swf
And now see how it looks like once exported into video format: (160 KB)
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22717206/Flash/Video_movieclip.avi

You must need a suitable codec for that like DivX codec, it will also import the nested movieclip animations. otherwise whatever you have on the main timeline is exported for avi. you will get the codec on the export settings for avi.

Can I make 1080i into progressive before exporting to DVD?

This excellent post explains how my HV20 1080i60 footage can be made progressive by using the ProRes setting:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306389
However, doing this sextuples the file sizes, and I have 50GB of footage on this project and needed it all on my MacBook, so it was a no-go.
Is there a way to apply this ProRes now that I have my project edited in timeline (4 minutes) before exporting to DVD? Or could I somehow use the ProRes setting itself (rather than one of the DVD export settings) to export the project to burn on a DVD in DVD Studio Pro?
Or is applying a Deinterlace filter going to do the same?
I would keep the framerate at 29.97, as it is destined for broadcast.
Thank you,
MaW

Thank you very much for superfast replies.
You are right about the broadcast, I just checked the Viacom submission specs, and for HD it says “MTVN requires delivery of 1080i (16 x 9) aspect ratio program material, at 29.97 frames per second (59.94 fields/sec) for broadcast.”
It would be quite silly to go from i to p to i.
I just wanted to do everything I could to make it look less sharp and videoey (being a $1,000 CMOS camera...)
I am now trying to add some grain with the CGM plug-in...
Very interesting about the Deinterlace Filter vs. Frame Controls.
Which one of the four should I select?
(Fast (line averaging), Better (motion adaptive) Best (motion compensated) and Reverse Telecine)
I would want the best possible result, of course.
Also, should I leave the ‘adaptive details’ box checked?
For future reference, if I wanted to export 1080i timeline and make it progressive, could I still follow the article instructions and select Reverse Telecine (I’d probably keep the framerate at 30)?
This would seem so much easier than having to do the pulldown on ALL your footage before starting to edit...
Thank you
MaW

30 fps projects automatically become 25 fps when export a DVD from share menu

I shoot some video at 30 fps. I made a project setting to match that.
My 30 fps projects becomes 25 fps when I make DVDs from FCPX share menu.
I thought it would make 29.97 DVDs but somehow FCPX makes PAL DVDs.
I tried different settings: all 23.98, 24, 29.97, 60 fps projects give me 29.97 DVDs when I share from FCPX.
Only 30 fps projects does not give me 29.97 but 25.
Do you know why that happen?

I am bit confused. It is not easy to make 29.97 out of 30 fps yet let FCPX handle the frame rate change?
Of course we should have the right fps setting when we shoot. I guess it is still best option at this stage to set FCP project 29.97 and let it do the math.
If, though, I am okay to have my source video slow down tiny bit, then using Compressor for frame-to-frame conversion will assure the best quality?
