How to burn slideshow to dvd

How burn slideshow from aperture to dvd

Have you already created a slideshow in Aperture (File > New > Slideshow)? Then use the "Export" button of the upper right corner to render the slideshow as a video file. Set the "Export for" pop-up menu to the format you need for the device where you want to watch the slideshow.
Once you have the video, you can either use the Finder to burn a data DVD from it (but that cannot be played in a DVD player) or use burn software to create a video DVD, that you can play in a DVD player. You will need special software to do this (Burn, iDVD), see this user tip for options:

Burning Slideshow to DVD

I would be grateful if someone could explain how to burn a slideshow to DVD so that it can be watched on TV. I have created a slideshow and exported it and it is in the iphoto slideshow folder as .M4v file.
I don't know how to get it from there to DVD. I have Toast Titanium 10.
All suggestions appreciated.

You can use the Share -> Send to iDVD command in iPhoto to send the slideshow to the iDVD app which will burn the DVD for you. For using Toast check the Toast Help.

Burning slideshows to DVD

Is it possible to burn saved slideshows to DVD that was created in Lr5

It depends on your target. Do you want a standard video DVD that plays in all DVD players? If so be aware that the quality will be very low 480p video whatever software you use. On any modern HDTV this looks fairly poor but it is the best you can do with standard video DVD. On Macs people would use iDVD or something like Toast. On PCs I have no clue but I am sure a quick google would show a lot of tools. With those softwares you usually simply drag the Lightroom output video file into the app and hit burn.
If your target is any recent BluRay player, you do NOT want to burn a DVD the above way. Just stick the DVD or burnable CD (usually big enough for this as your Lightroom output file is not often bigger than a few 100 Megs) in your drive and have the OS (if it is a Mac) mount it, drag the Lightroom output file on and hit burn. It probably works similarly on recent windows versions but I don't know the details. This disc should play in high def on almost any recent BluRay player. If you want something more fancy with menus and such you need a full BluRay authoring app. Most are super expensive but there are a few that are affordable such as Toast 11 Pro. Adobe makes a BluRay authoring product too called Encore which can be downloaded as part of creative cloud if you download premiere.
In all this make sure to export the slideshow at high enough resolution. For BluRay playing, you want 1080p. For standard video DVD you want something a little better than 480p, so 720p. The DVD authoring software will downscale it for you.

Burning slideshow onto dvd

I'm trying to burn a iphoto slideshow onto a maxel dvd-r (4.7 GB 16x). The disk is ejecting after the "multiplexing and burning" is done. I tried to save the disk as a disk image and burn from my desktop but the it doesn't let me select the disk image (icon is "grayed"). I'm sure I'm doing something wrong... (I'm working from a MacBook Pro, 10.7.3, software... seems to be up-to-date)
help?

Hi
So - Save as a DiskImage - result's in an icon on DeskTop ?
If You double click on it - Nothing happens ? or does a new icon of a hard disk pop-up ?
If it does - then open/start DVD-tool and play it - Does this work or not ?
I use
• Verbatim DVDs (only)
• DVD-R (only)
• set down burn speed to x2 or x4 - as x16 results in to many Burn Errors for my liking
Multiplex Error
Multiplexing error is a very complex problem due to many things (long long list following) - one common but not obvious reason is that material on the iDVD menu goes outside the TV-Safe area (or just touching it).
So first - turn on TV-Safe area and move any object well inside of this.
Wide screen stretched - usually (as I think) it is due to making a 4x3 movie in a 16x9 wide-screen project OR the other way around. This forces one to on flat-screen TV (or other) set the presenting view right - My has 4x3, wide-screen, zoom and auto-wide-screen and I have to switch this by my remote for some DVD I've made "wrong" way.
Now my long long list on Multiplex Error
LONG LONG LONG LIST
Multiplexing Error
PART One.
Use of strange video/audio material e.g. .avi, .wmv, .mp3 etc.
I only use.
Video - StreamingDV (miniDV tape via FireWire) and
Audio - .aiff (as on audio-CDs) (else converted to this .aiff 48KHz)
Photo - .jpg (.bmp known problematic)
Chapters !
A. Using strange letters in video project name e.g. +,/; etc. keep to a-z and 0-9 strange letters in project name e.g. +
as described by Donnyboy69. Does the title of your project have any symbols or decimal points in it. If so, that is why you are getting the error. I had a project that had a + sign which caused the same problem. I renamed it without the symbol and low and behold, it worked.
B. Location of Chapters
• Can’t be at start or end of movie (Skip first/start one - iDVD sets this by it self. At the End - no need)
• Not in a transition (or within 2-3 seconds from it)
Important when from iMovie HD6 or previous - Now also observed when using FCE 4
PART Two.
from Robert Modero.
"Multiplexing Error. Problem during initialization of tracks"
Simply remember to add subtitles to your Quicktime files and menu buttons.
Once I did that, I was back in business.
from Boise Jim
Do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
I always makes a DiskImage first and test this so that it runs OK
I use only - Verbatim DVDs
I use only - DVD-R
I burn at an as slow speed possibly e.g. x1
This gives good DVDs
PART Three.
Multiplex Error
Chuck, Chicago 2/7/2009.
Back again. Here is what I have found to work. I also have and use a LaCie DVD-R/RW DL external drive and a LaCie external hard drive as well. Since yesterday I have tried a few ways to burn a themed iDVD project having four 56 minute movies on it, amounting to 226 minutes onto a DVD DL disc, capacity 240 minutes. Apple tech support really didn't know what to do but gave me a very good tip. I had two options left. Apple tech support's tip was to try disc image. One of the replies on a thread with this subject said not to, but my experience today is good. Put your project onto "Burn to disc image," under "iDVD, file." Yesterday encoding took me 23 1/2 hours. Overnight for iDVD disc image, encoding took 21 1/2 hours (again) while I slept. This morning I tried to copy/burn disc image to a DVD with Roxio Toast 7, and it stopped near the end of the burn with some kind of "error" message. So then I tried Utilities> Disc Utility> Burn icon, and followed it through. Be sure to click the DVD DL drive in the window "Burn disc in.". I had one other problem though. At the end of a 46 minute copy, it started to verify, and at the end of verify it rejected the burn. So I tried again, and when "verify" appeared, I clicked on "Skip." The disc finished burning and is doing fine and well. A long and tortuous process, but at last something works. I made several additional copies using Disc Utility. Best wishes. Chuck, Chicago.
2. Disconnect any other external devices not absolutely needed.
e.g. external USB/USB2 hard disks, other FW hard disks etc.

(Not a 'guy' but I will answer!)
First, I do not think that mixing wide-screen and standard makes a difference in iDVD.
Second, you should use a better brand of DVD disk. Also, many of us have experienced fewer problems on playback with DVD-R disks. Recommended brands here are Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden. Memorex and TDK are not consistent and may not give you a correct burn. They apparently have fewer layers in the composition of the disk. I have always used Verbatim DVD-R disks and have not had any burn problems.
Also, choose a slower burn speed, 4x or less.
Third, to determine if the iDVD project will burn properly, create a disk image file (from within iDVD, go File->Save as Disk Image) and test it. Mount the disk image and then open DVD Player (in Applications) and view your project. If it plays correctly, you can then burn the actual DVD disk from the disk image file using Disk Utility.

I did everything I've seen suggested, but a friend (who used to be an Apple Genius) suggested that I do a safe reboot (by holding down the shift key until you see the spinning gear on gray background, then release, then restart when your start-up screen appears).
It worked, and I got a clean burn from iDVD.
Hopefully this can help other people.

Well, I finally got it, and it was odd enough to post here incase anyone looks this topic up again. Many things were tried, including burning the unedited film, the edited film without titles and chapter markers, abbreviating the chapter markers in case length was the issue (remember the old iMovie used to truncate them when moving to iDVD?). In the process, I noticed that one, and only one, chapter marker was on the same line as the title marker. All the others were on the line above. The only way I seemed able to change that was to clip a few seconds of film. After that last clip, the offending marker took a place on the line above, as were all the others. That run published, compiled completely and burned. That's one for the books.
One user more writes
To add my experience with Multiplex Errors using iDVD (7.0.4), I recently created two iDVD projects
Video from both passed from FCE 4.01 with chapters
One project worked fine in creating disk image file
The other gave Multiplex Errors
I tried suggestions to remove special characters and no chapter marks at beginning, but nothing worked
Note that I've used iDVD for dozens of projects and this is first time I've run into Multiplex Errors
Anyway, for problem project, I tried an experiment where I removed all chapters in FCE and passed to new iDVD project
This time multiplex errors gone
So had something to do with chapters
So now I tried numerous experiments to remove individual chapters and try again creating disk image with new iDVD project
After numerous tries, I was able to narrow problem down to 1 "Bad" chapter mark
That is, when I left the "bad" chapter in my FCE project and passed to iDVD, iDVD gave multiplex error
When I removed "bad" chapter mark (and others in), no multiplex error
As a final experiment, I moved "bad" chapter mark about 5-10 sec's beyond original point and passed to iDVD, the multiplex errors now magically went away and I was able to finally create my disk image.
I have no idea why this worked, but thought I'd mention here in case someone else runs into similar problem.

In addition to Bengt's fine advice, burning errors can occur if you have located any of your menu buttons wholly or partly outside of the safe TV viewing area. Go to your main project menu, then click on View/Show TV Safe Area, to check. Drag into the safe viewing area any buttons that are outside the safe viewing area.
Russ One - suggest this
Multiplex Error-There was an error during muxing preparation
One thing that worked for me was to export the video w/o chapter markers as a self contained movie (thereby not loosing the edits & etc). Then make a new FCE project and import that movie into a new sequence and add the chapter markers. I've used "-", "&" and "," with no problem in the chapter names. Removing the markers or exporting without them did solve the problem but renaming them with just numbers 1,2,3....5, did not solve the problem and since this problem seems to happen with with iMovie as well, it would suggest the problem is in the video or audio and in combination with the chapter markers iDVD just can't handle it. The only other possibility is that both iMovie and FCE share the same or similar chapter marker code that some how is corrupting the markers.
Summary - What to try
1. Chapters
• Only A to Z and 0 to 9 in chapter title
• No Chapter mark at very beginning of movie
• No Chapter mark in or within 2 seconds from any transition in movie
2. TV-safe area for buttons (no one outside this)
3. Safe re-boot
4. No other external devices connected - that are not needed
SDMacuser adds to this
• On #4 ... No ext. devices. Some think this applies mainly to ext. FW. Not the case. Also applies to ext. USB2 as well (not to mention flash drives too).
Do not leave 3rd party devices / camera / camcorder plugged in unless it is being used with iDvd's One Step process. Certain web cams can trigger this also (especially ones with added features like LED light/s that draw additional power from the FW or USB bus).
5. Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-up hard disk
6. Make a DiskImage first - reduces where problem originates
7. Trash iDVD pref. file
8. Make a new iDVD project
9. Movies in project with same aspect ratio e.g. 4x3 or 16x9
10. No other programs/applications running during iDVD process. e.g. Internet, screen & energy savers

Cannot burn Apple supplied DVD-R

I have a MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-815 (CD-RW/DVD-R) and cannot burn a DVD-R 2X purchased from Apple. Any suggestions?
I got this burn message:
"Burning disc: "Untitled DVD"
An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used."
The disc then ejected and I got this message:
"Burning the disc failed because this type of CD is not supported. (Error code 0x80020043)"
Thanks,
-i

I'm having the same problem on the Superdrive on my eMac when trying to burn a DVD.
"Burning the disc failed because this type of CD is not supported. Error code 0x8002043"
I'm using Verbatim DVD+R. I compared them with other DVDs I've burned..they are exactly the same.

W5x0 cannot burn dual layer DVDs

I bought a W510 as a host for a scanner in late 2010. My T60p was having fan problems and I liked the W510 so much that I bought a W520. Originally I was going to use the W520 for the scanner/photo processing but frankly the monitor on the W510 tunes up a little better so I'm staying.
I've been trying, with no luck whatsoever, to burn dual layer DVDs. The W520 came with Corel DVD software that does not have verify as an opction (I can't believe it but it appears to be true). I use the W510 for most of it and it has the old tried and true Roxio. I installed the Roxio on the W520 so they are equal.
The two systems came with different DVD writers. The W510 MAT**bleep**A DVD-RAM UJ8A0A and the W520 a HL-DL-ST DVDRAM GT30N. Neither drive in neither system can works.
I can write about 1 of 10 discs on either system/drive (I've made a lot of coasters over the past month).
At first I thought it was related to the Memorex media. Last week before I went out of town I got some other vendors, and started with the Kodak discs but I'm getting hockey pucks at the same failure rate as Memorex, so I conclude the media is not the root cause.
I also have an external USB drive, Lite On with a HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GE24LU20 drive in it that also will not work. The external drive says is it supports up to 8x write speed, but rarely gets above 3-4, but it still makes coasters.
I've tried limiting the write speed to 2.4x but it still makes coasters.
I can't believe with a 2 host, 2 drive matrix that there is a drive or system failure involved. There just has to be something else going on.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Tony

Another fact set. On the failures, 40% of them fail during the write, another 40% fail during the verify pass with a compare error, and the remaining 20% cannot be read after the burn.
On my old system the reflectivity of the disc after writing was uniform. On the write failures you can see big gaps in the write band. Sometimes it fails in the first few minutes (before the capacity consumed would switch to the second layer).
For others even when successful the reflectivity of the disc almost makes it look like the write portion didn't finish the write pad out to finish the disc, and I think some of the read errors are occurring in layer 1 past the transition region. The Roxio software has the option to finish the disc but the Corel burn.now and the included windows DVD ISO burner do not.
Writing dual layer has never worked on my W510 but my T60p didn't have troubles. What I don't know is whether the difference is T60 to W5x0 or Windows XP to Windows 7.
Again, any suggestions welcome.

In Disk Utility, cannot burn disk image to empty 4.7gb DVD

Hi, just asking, are you trying to burn the DMG, or restore it to a DVD?

Burn slideshow to dvd

Found out Elements 12 can not burn a slideshow of still pictures with music to a DVD that can then be played on a DVD player. Appears I have to buy Premiere as well. Please confirm.

When you've completed your slideshow, click the Output button at the top of the slideshow editor and you should see this window:
Choose to make a wmv file rather than a pdf, and that's the file you send to your burning software.

Downloaded latest update, now I cannot burn projects to dvd's!!! I would have never updated if I knew I would loose that capability.

I have a MacBook Pro 10.9.3 version.(Imovie version10.0.3) I just upgraded my computer now I cannot save my project to a dvd. I have spent hours trying to finda a way. I have read that others are having this same problem. I have tried to follow what they suggest only to find that when I go to the file my files do not use the same wording. That is why I as putting the kind of computer I have in this message in case that makes a difference. For the record I do have Idvd, but it will not open my project. It only opens those I already have completed. Can ANYONE help me.

I am having the same problem...but in my case I am trying to create an avchc dvd (a high definition format play able in Blu-ray players using standard dvds). (Still struggling in fact...)
If you want to create a simple dvd of the MPEG-4 "project" you created in imovie.....have you tried letting "finder" burn the DVD for you?
Go to: finder/go/computer/mac hard drive/users/macbook/movies in movie library......when you find your library (your path may be different than above)....highlight it, double click it, click "show package contents".....find your project...double click it....select "burn to disc".
Good luck. Its not as simple as it apparently was before Apple discontinued idvd
Best wishes

Problem burning slideshow to DVD

I made my first attempt with my new photo shop Elements 11 and adobe Premier, to burn a slideshow using photos and music. I was able to burn it with no difficulty but some of my photos had been turned sideways on the finished disc. They were not this way on the slideshow. How can I correct this for a reburn?

Windows Only
I find its best to select a batch of images in Organizer and then click Create >> Slideshow.
You can also add captions, if all the photos already have them.
Set slide duration, transition type/duration and click OK. You can also add pan and zoom effects whilst in the project.
You can preview your slide show when the Slideshow Editor opens. Then click Output >> Edit With Premiere Elements. You will be prompted to save your PSE project - click yes.
A new project will open in PRE and you can add or change your soundtrack, fade the music on the end frame plus any other effects you may want.
The output gets sent as a single clip. To review individual slides right-click on the clip in the timeline (usually Video 1) and choose Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow.
You can now preview your slideshow again or render it first (for best quality) and then preview to make sure all the slides are correct. If not click on individual frames to adjust.
When you are happy click Publish+Share and choose disk.
Insert your DVD and click the rescan button until the disk drive is recognized.
Choose a pre-set. I always uncheck the box Fit Contents to Available Space. I can then move the slider up to highest quality.
Then click Burn and wait whilst the disk is written and finalized.
Good Luck.

Burn slideshow to dvd to view on tv

I have created a slideshow in iphoto, How to I burn to a disk which I can view on a DVD player to the TV

Export it from iPhoto to the desktop. This will make QuickTime movie of it.
Now you need an app that will author a DVD that will play on a domestic DVD player. Apple used to do iDVD, do you have that? Alternatives to iDVD:

Create a project in whatever app you choose and add the movie you exported from iPhoto to it, then burn it.

Bad quality with ken burns slideshows on DVD

I've created several movies from still images using iMovie 08 (7.1.2) and its Ken Burns effect. The preview in iMovie looks really great and plays fluid.
Then I've exported the movie using the checkmark to produce a "large" video file. The result was then selectable in iDVD 08 (7.0.2).
Now I've made some nice looking menus and linked my movies to the project. The built in project preview of iDVD still showed me good looking results (the resolution was slightly decreased in order to meet DVD specs but that is acceptable).
But after burning the project to a DVD (or exporting it to an image file or VIDEO_TS folder) the quality went absolutely terrible! There are huge compression artifacts on some regions and all imported iMovie clips are studdering very heavily. Especially fast Ken Burns pannings suffer from a bad encoding quality.
It's driving me mad because those problems only appear on that part of the DVD I've created using iMovie. The (animated) menus and imported camcorder clips are playing fine in a good quality.
I've double checked the export results from iMovie (playing the produced m4v file using Quicktime and VLC) and they are absolutely fine...
Is there anything I'm missing?
The iDVD project settings are PAL, 4:3 aspect ratio and professional quality (even tried high quality and best performance at no luck). The entire project length is only ~20min...
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Okay, you are absolutely right. But it's a pity that Apple restricted the encoding engine in such a way. Users might think that a setting which is called "professioal quality" just does it job and encodes the material at this level.
I understand that a professional application like DVD SP offers a lot more settings for advanced users (without the ease of use when compared to the simple iDVD workflow) but I'm quite sure that it does this job better even with "default" settings.
For me I'm now doing those things with a 50$ version of TMPGEnc
Anyway, thanks for your help!

Cannot burn a blank DVD+RW disk

Since I installed Mountain Lion, this is the first time I am trying to burn data to a TDK DVD+RW disk. When I put the blank disk into the computer, the Disk Utility window opens showing the SuperDrive. It has to items: 1 Choose how to erase it and 2 Click Erase. Then I have to make the choice between earasing the data on disk Quickly or Completely. Since it is a blank disk, I chose Quickly. Once this finished, nothing else happened. In fact, no disk icon appeared on the Desktop at any time.
I would hope that I would not have to erase completely every time I used a blank disk, since that takes an hour.
There is nothing in the Disk Utility Preferences that apply to the disk.
The mac will recognize a DVD+RW I created with Snow Leopard OS.
Any suggestions to help me with this problem. My warranty has run out on the computer, so I can't call Apple.

If you are using the correct format, then maybe you
do need a third party utility like Roxio Toast which
has offered multisession burning since before Disk
Utility.
Except that Toast does not support multisession DVD -- only CD. There's an article on Roxio's support site that explains the reason for not supporting multisession DVD: there is no standard for it. All the software that can burn multisession DVDs do it in a way that is not standards-based.

Suddenly says cannot burn cd or dvd for photos- suggestions?

I often burn photos on DVDR or CD R now it says it won't burn...any suggestions please

Clean the lens on the burner.
