Cant convert to dvd format?

i exported my 2hour, 1920X1080 hd , video out and it is 60gb, i then put it into compressor with dvd 120 best quality preset. When i click submit, i see the file in process but the time left is --:--:-- and the bar never move. A while more, the status become failed. What problem or what method i can solve it??

Have you tried other videos and other presets? This should eliminate the video and 120min DVD preset as the cause of the problem.
I would guess that compressor may have a problem though. Have you tried deleting the preferences? Lots of instructions how to on the net.

  • I need to know the best, safest way to convert video for Mac.  I just had home movies converted to a DVD format a realize now that I need another step to burn them to my computer.

    I just had home movies converted to a DVD format a realize now that I need another step to burn them to my computer.  This is for a Christmas present!  Help.

    I don't think you need to use a ripper program to read a home movie DVD. Those are primarily for copy-protected commercial DVDs, right?
    I think you just need to transcode the DVD files using a utility like Handbrake, which is free and fast.

    I don't find it difficult to try but some have said that it is. YMMV.

  • Convert Flash to dvd format

    Hello.
    Does any body know how to convert a flash movie into dvd-format?
    Is there a program that can do it?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Once the .swf file's on the DVD, does it still have to be played on a computer?
    Also, I've been trying to get my video clip to loop so there's no need to keep hitting play, as it's going to be used for display purposes... how's this done??
    Thanks a bunch!!

  • Convert swf to dvd format

    what is the most efficient way to convert swf to dvd
    format? are there more than one way? I'm trying to avoid
    degradation

    I think they mean to convert flash content into a type of
    file to use for dvd authoring/burning. "Efficient" is a relative
    term when it comes to what you want to do. The best answer
    sometimes depends on what is actually in your flash file. If it's
    all vector, you have less to worry about when it comes to
    generation loss. There are several "swf 2 avi" converters out
    there. Flash itself lets you export to avi, but the quality has
    never been good. I use GeoVid's Flash to Video Encoder
    http://www.geovid.com/Flash_to_Video_Encoder_PRO/
    and Flashants SWF2Video
    http://www.flashants.com/root/index.shtml
    Each performs relatively well. From that, you can use the exported
    video and place into whatever dvd burning application you
    have.

  • How to convert slide shows from Video CD to DVD format

    I have a number of Adobe Photoshop Elements slide shows in the Video CD format.  Since many DVD players (especially blue-ray) do not accomodate the Video CD format........... I would like to convert them to DVD.  This will not improve the resolution but will take care of my problem.  I do have Adobe 9.0 Photoshop and Premier Elements.  Suggestions appreciated.

    Even though Photoshop Elements gives you the option of burning a CD or 
    DVD.........in reality I don't think you can do a DVD unless you have Photoshop
    Premier.

  • How do I convert my DVD home movies (NTSC format) to mpeg 4 format??

    3 yrs ago I had my home movies (super 8) onto DVDS (NTSC format.
    I would like to convert to mpeg4 so that I can import into imovie and Quicktime player 10
    I just installed Snow Leopard 10.6

    I would recommend that you convert the DVDs to Apple Intermediate Codec, then edit your movies, then share the final movie in mpeg4 (h.264). This will preserve the most quality. However, the method I will describe will also work to convert your DVD directly into MPEG4.
    1) Download and install the Apple MPEG2 QuickTime Component ($20) - available online from Apple.
    2) Download and install MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free).
    3) Start MPEG Streamclip
    4) Insert your DVD into your Mac. If DVD Player or Front Row starts automatically quit those.
    5) Open a Finder window. Navigate to your DVD to the Video_TS folder.
    6) Drag the .VOB files from the Video_TS folder and drop then into MPEG Streamclip.
    7) If MPEG Streamclip offers to fix timecode breaks, say yes.
    8) Use FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME to convert the files to Apple Intermediate Codec (or h.264 if you prefer)
    9a) Optional: You can deinterlace your footage in this step, if you like
    9b) optional: If you know the date and or time of the footage, name your file
    clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss
    (let mpeg streamclip provide the extension). This will provide metadata that iMovie will use to put the event in the right year and month.
    9c) Optional: If you don't want to make one huge clip out of your DVD, you can make smaller clips by using MPEG Streamclip. Move the cursor to the "in" point of the clip, and press i. Move the cursor to the "Out" point of the clip, and press o. Then do steps 8 through 10 and repeat until you have done this for all clips you want.
    10) Save the resulting file in a place where you can find it, like your Desktop.
    11) Open iMovie.
    12) In iMovie, choose FILE/IMPORT/From File and choose the file you saved in steps 8, 9, 10.
    13) iMovie will generate thumbnails and you can edit.

  • How to convert dvd format to HD AVI

    How do I convert DVD format to HD AVI or HD MP4 from either iMovie or iDVD applications, please help, thank you

    You need to convert them to mp4 or m4v. Handbrake is good for this. Mpegstreamclip and Format Factory(pc only) also work. they are all freeware. I'd recommend the handbrake since it also has presets for ipods and i think the ipad, and it has a queue feature....meaning if your dvd has several clips on it you can set it up to do all of them without starting each one individually.

  • Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    I'm guessing that your using One Step DVD . This will only work with one movie at a time.
    Create a new project and all you should have to do is drag your movies from your movie folder onto your iDVD project. You can add as many movies as you like but obviously you can't exceed the maximum total DVD size.
    Encoding can take a long time depending on the original file format, but you should be able to use pretty much any file format you can play with Quicktime.

  • Can I use QuickTime Pro to convert my dvds into an ipod video ready format

    I've just got an ipod video and being in the UK I'm unable to buy movies from iTunes and wanted to add some of my own dvd collection to my ipod - can I do this with QT pro???
    Thanks

    No.
    QuickTime can't open MPEG-2 (DVD format) without third party software help and can't extract audio from muxed file formats.
    Search the iPod Discussions pages. Dozens of software solutions have been posted there.

  • Converting ntsc dvd to pal for web

    hi , i am based in uk and I have a dvd that apparently is ntsc as it plays in my dvd player and says ntsc region, it plays on the computer to.
    I want to take small segments from it to convert to web format , add titles etc and upload to youtube.\
    trouble is i cant rip the files to use in final cut pro, tried media streamclip but that produces jerky unusable files with random drop out and colours
    I then thought play it realtime into fcp , it will play going by a firewire into capture and i see it but when capturing it stops every few seconds saying there is dropout I unchecked report on droped frames, and abourt on dropout. and capturing without deck control. i then tried to go through my dv camera but that doesnt see the picture only the sound.
    I thought I could copy the dvd but it wont work either on my dvd recorder or with toast.
    any suggestions how I can do this? does it need converting first if so how?
    I am only using a few minutes of at least 90 minutes of footage .
    thankyou

    >Maybe worth a feature request for CS5?
    God in heaven - NO!
    As Joe just pointed out, these are 2 completely different TV standards, running on different frame rates at different resolutions.
    The results of attempting this "on the fly" with menus etc would very closely resemble a dogs dinner.
    >I would therefore guess that you are stuck with copying the menus and other such assets into a new Encore project for each output format.
    That won't work.
    NTSC is 720x480, PAL is 720x576. They have different PAR as well.
    If compliance is what you need, then design your menus in Square Pixels at 720 x 540, and resize the image (in PS) to the required TV standard before importing into Encore. 16/9 is worse, as you need to use different designs for each TV standard. There are no short-cuts.
    Asset preparation should be done

  • Does converting from dvd to mpeg4 reduce file size?

    Ive searched over and over and cant find the answer to this.
    I ripped the DVD Bruce Almighty onto my computer using DVD decrypter. I then converted it using Videora Ipod converter. The ripped file was something like 6.5 gigs. The converted file is only 660MBs. Is this normal ?
    Also I have seen it happen opposite, where I downloaded a clip of a diamond store robbery and it started as a 9,791KB Windows Media Audio/Video file and after i converted it, it became a 40,990KB Mpeg-4 Movie file.
    Any help or explanation is greatly apreciated
    Oh and I watched bruce almight and it worked great, im definately not complaining that it took up less space, just curious of why and if the videora default settings are possibly converting to a smaller bit rate or something that is going to reduce quality when watching on ipod or itunes.

    yes thats compleatly normal. You're looking at 3 differant video formats that all compress differantly and efficiantly. The ipod uses Mpeg4 and h.264 which is a more efficiant version of mpeg4. What you have to rememver is when converting from other formats, the video becomes that new format and losses its old compression bit rate (how much data is prossesed per second) and format and gets a new bit rate and new format. Like when I edit video, its done in a format called DV on which 10 minutes of video takes 2 gigs. But the finished product becomes a dvd whichi can fit 1 hour of comparable video in the same space. Let me explain more.
    Mpeg2 is the video format of dvds. Mpeg2 is a pretty effiant codec but requires a pretty high but rate to be acceptable. Mpeg4 can do with less data and achieve around the same quality. Also you have to remember that vidora is resizing the video to a lower resolution making the video even smaller.
    As for a video getting bigger, thats normal as well. As I said is that the new file will achieve a new bit rate. Mpeg or wmv may need to be reencoded at a higher mpeg 4 bit rate to keep around the same quality of the original video. If you encoded the video at the same bit rate as the old video, youll loose alot of quaity form being double compressed.
    All this is hard to explain if you know nothing about video formats and how convertion works. Hope some of this makes sence
