Change Burn Disc settings

When I am in the Burn Disc Settings, how do I change the Disc Burner settings: M4PToMP3 Virtual CD-RW to CD-R??? It tells me to use CD-R to burn but it still wont burn. How do I fix this problem?

The 2131 is usually a firmware issue, Jack.
Is the Dell firmware on your TS-L632H up to date? Here's a link through to their latest version:

"Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc"

itunes 7,Disc Driver DVD+-RW connected via usb and and recognized by itunes,windows XP Pro, mp3 songs authorized,creat playlist in itunes.
after inserting a blank disc, itunes shows me to choose the songs in playlist and to burn. But "Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc", failed.

I have a similar issue. For me at least, it seems that I cannot move songs from my ipod into new playlists (and therefore the browse button does not change to burn). This is a recent development, in the last couple of days. I.e., I was previously able to create a new playlist and move songs into it for burning to CD. So, this does not pose any answer to your question, I just have a similar issue: the burn. Does anyone know of a solution?

I did step 2 in the "iDVD: Setting Encoding preferences" but my computer isn't giving me the pop-up in step 3 so i can't push an OK button in regards to the message. I waited 15+ hours for it to burn and it sent me to this page. I have tried to change the encoding settings again, and it adjusts the capacity but no message pop-up appears.

You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
(1) Page Info > Permissions tab
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
(2) about:permissions
In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
Any luck?

IDVD doesn't burn discs properly!

Hi all,
First of all I'm new to this so if I've missed out any info please let me know. I've always downloaded a lot of films and in the past, have had no problem burning them to discs since I got my mac in 2006. I used to burn them using the "Create New Project" and add in movie, sort menu's etc, but after a while I realised there's no point in all that cause it takes longer and all I really want is the movie on a disc anyway. So I started using the "One Step DVD from Movie" and I would make the discs that way, which I never had any problems with either. I hadn't made any DVDs for a while, possibly 3 or 4 months and when I tried the other day it seems to go through the movie ok, converting the video and audio and then goes to burn the disc, which is where I have the problem. It normally goes to writing video out and things like that but the last couple of times I have tried to burn discs it goes to that as usual then spits out the DVD before going through the entire process. I then have to cancel the process and the DVD I was trying to burn is no longer usable because it seems to have written parts of the movie to it, but not the full movie so it's not possible to watch on a DVD player or even in the mac DVD player. It's very strange, I don't get any error message or anything coming up, it just spits out the DVD and then iDVD freezes and I have to force quit out of it. I'm wondering if it's maybe the version of iDVD that's the problem. Obviously as I've not used the iDVD for a while it will have been automatically updated via the Software Update which I run at least once a week. I'm unsure of the version the last time I used it to make a DVD but the version I have now seems to be the latest one for my system (version 6.0.4). After a few unsuccessful tries at making the DVDs using the One Step DVD, I tried to do it by creating a project first, but it seems to do the exact same thing, go through the whole process (which takes about 2 hours, sometimes longer) and then burn only part of it then I can't use the disc again. Please help, any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for quick reply and I'm sorry about the long message, I was just trying to explain everything that had happened. Not touched the media at all since I got it, I didn't change any settings or make anything different from when I used to burn discs before. I have about 10GB free on my mac at this moment, but at the time I had about 30GB free, maybe just under. I have been reading other posts on here about discs not burning properly and a couple of the things that have been said is to not have any other applications open, which I didn't and have more than 15GB space free, which I always have had when burning discs.

ITunes no longer burns discs

Hi, I came here in support of a new issue that has arose.
Heres the scoop: I have already created a playlist, click burn disc. It starts up fine as it has no errors when creating the disc. It then initializes, and says that it is burning the first track. However here is where the problem arises.
The status bar never moves, its just keeps saying burning the first track. The drive is spinning, sounding like it is burning regularly. So I let it sit for a while, come back, still the same exact place and the drive spinning like its burning. So I then click cancel after about 30 min. Of course it doesn't cancel, or won't eject so I force quit iTunes, and the disc stops spinning.
Then, once it quits, the disc starts spinning again and appears on the desktop, and iTunes reopens. The disc shows the right amount of tracks and the correct times, but when I go to play them, its just no sound.
I then try it again after restarting, and I get the same result. I even try changing the disc burn speeds and still the same result. Now I'm tired of wasting cds so I've come for help.
Some other details: I have recently updated to 10.5, before that I have been able to burn cds in iTunes with no such problem. Also, whenever I try burning unsuccessfully, more and more of my hard drive space gets eaten up and doesn't come back even when quitting iTunes until I restart. The drive is a dvd writer, but isn't factory installed, in the past versions of X I had to use patch burn to burn from the ilife programs, but its no longer needed in 10.5.

A friend this morning says that he thinks that iTunes has put a DRM (Digital Rights Management) code on any music that is imported into iTunes, whether it is purchased from the iTunes store, ripped off a commercial CD, or even copied from your friend's homemade CD, and that's why after some time is elapsed, you can no longer make a music CD from playlists in iTunes. He compared it to Rhapsody, which allows you to listen to your downloaded music as long as you still pay your monthly Rhapsody bill. Could this be true?!?! I can still make an MP3 disc, or backup my iTunes library to a DVD, but I can no longer make a music CD. Like others have described, iTunes starts the process, checks the playlist length, initializes the blank music CD, and then stalls, saying it is writing the first track, but will say that all day. One has to force quit iTunes to get the disc out. It shows the correct disc title and track names when inserted in a player with this capability, but all one hears is static-like noise when the disc is played.

Issues burning discs on iTunes/ error message about burn speed

I've never had problems burning discs on iTunes until today, I tried to burn one of my playlists on a Memorex CD-R.
- The burn seemed to be going OK at first, but the drive started making an obnoxious, loud noise by the 4th song out of 16.
- The progress bar in iTunes then said "burning disc, finalizing" even though the CD had not been finished.
- The drive practically launches the CD out, causing it to drop, rather than ejecting half way and holding it like usual. An error message came up saying something along the lines of, "iTunes cannot burn this CD because the burn speed is too high for the CD drive or media. Lower the burn speed in the burning pane of preferences"
- I tried it again without changing the burn speed (which I suppose was set to maximum) thinking it was something to do with the disc. The same thing happened the second time I tried to burn the disc. The reason I didn't change the burn speed when it asked me to was because I'd never been prompted about the burn speed and I've used the whole stack of these Memorex CD's without problems.
I am trying to figure out where the problem really lies - does this sound like an iTunes issue (which needs an update except that my system does as well), CD issue or a drive issue? Is there a more reasonable burn speed I should try next time?
Any help would be so appreciated, thank you!!

Cant burn discs and warning message

My computer wont burn discs. It recognizes and imports music and recognizes blank discs but it says disc recording not found when i try and burn it. It also has a warning message when i open itunes that says "the registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall Itunes." I have not tried to reinstall because i dont want to lose my music. Please help

Can you help me? I get the exact same message with my new upgrade of itunes 10. But with additional problem of not being able to uninstall/remove itunes through Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. I get the following error:
"Could not open key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\itunes.aif\shellex\{88956b 1c6-b41f-4c 1c-a 562-0d564250836f}. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel."
Then I click OK and an Add or Remove Programs box pops up with:
"Fatal error during installation." Click OK.
What would you suggest I try now since I can't remove and reinstall itunes 10? I wish I'd never upgraded now! I have not yet tried steps messing with registry as suggested if uninstall and reinstall does not solve. I'm afraid of messing it up and making matters worse but will try as last resort.

Skipped audio files when burning disc in iDVD.

I burned a DVD using iDVD version 7.0. The audio files sound perfect on the computer but on the disc there are skipped areas noted in three different audio files. I did try different discs and burned discs on both my laptop and my desktop. I have used this program before but never encountered this problem. Any tips? Thanks

Hi
My notes on this.
No audio on DVD disc.
Most common origin.
1. Imported audio from iTunes.
• In iTunes copy out as an Audio-CD .aiff (Same as played on standard Stereo CD - no .mp3)
• Use this in Your movie project
2. Low - Free Space on Start-up/Boot/Internal/Mac OS Hard disk makes it hard for iMovie to work as intended.
Down to 1.3 GB and it doesn’t work - especially audio don’t migrate over to Media Browser
(iM’08 & 09)
3. Material in iMovie’08 & 09 - Shared to Media Browser and here selected as Large
large.m4v. It silenced out this project in iDVD. By making a slight alteration - provoking it to ask for a new Share/Publish to Media Browser and here selecting 640x480 - and audio was back when a new iDVD project was created including this movie.
Minuscular - - 176x144
Mobile - - - - - 480x360
Medium - - - - 640x480
Large - - - - - - 720x540 960x540
HD - - - - - - - - 1280x720
4. Strange audio formats like .mp3, .avi etc.
• Change them to .aiff. Use an audio editor like Audacity (free)
5. Main audio is set to off in System Preferences - Does this by it self - Don’t know why
Cheque Audio-Out resp. Audio-In
6. Ed Hanna
Had the same problem; some Googling around gave me a kludgy, but effective fix
Downgrade Perian from recent versions back to version 1.0.
That worked for me, and so far I haven't encountered any deficiencies — except it takes more advanced versions of Perian to enable QuickTime to handle subtitles in .srt format — that I have noticed.
7. GarageBand fix.
In this set audio to 44.1 kHz (Klaus1 suggestion)
(if this don’t work try 48 kHz - me guessing)
Before burning the DVD.
• Do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
• Double click on the .img file
• Test it with Apple DVD-player
If it’s OK then make Your DVD.
Burn at x1 speed.... (or x4)
• In iDVD 08 - or - 09
• Burn from DiskImage with Apple’s Disk Utilities application
• OR burn with Roxio Toast™ if You got it

8.2.1 Not able to burn disc.

Since the most recent upgrade I'm unable to burn disc. I've done this before many times and have never had problems, nevertheless I followed these instructions after the first attempt failed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2239
Nothing happens after step 16.
Prior to upgrade I could watch in the "Window Player" what song the system was burning, also the check marks would change to completed status. Now it just sits there with a "Player Window" that reads "Burning Disc ... finishing."
After 3 hours, I clicked the "x" in the window. It then gave a pop-up, "If you stop this disc burn, your disc will not be usable. Are you sure you want to stop?" I clicked yes.
Window reads "Canceling disc burn... this may take a minute or two" after displaying this for an hour, I had to complete a "Forced Quit" on Itunes, though itunes was responding.
I've gone thru this process three times, and all 3 disc are unusable with 0 tracks.
I'm trying to burn 15 songs I purchased today from Itunes with at total time of 1:08:04, 136MB min onto a CD-R 700MB/80MIN disc.
Anyone have a solution? Thanks.

I too am experiencing the same problems as mentioned above but I now am receiving a disc error message of "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media." This now happens whether I try to burn a Cd or try to back-up my purchases.
I have tried to burn a disc via finder first using a Itunes song file and second an Iphoto Jpeg. After both attempts I received this error code: 0x800Z006D I have not been able to find this error code.
Next I tried to put a DVD movie as well as an Apple install disc in my Superdrive. Both times the disc was spat out w/o reading. This also happens if I put in an audio CD. I've tried to install a laser lens cleaner, but this too was spat out.
Enter Utilities and clicked on Console and after I tried to load a DVD movie this message showed up in Console:
+2009-07-31 10:21:20.908 DiskImages UI Agent[252] Could not find image named 'background'.+
+Can't load ///usr/standalone/i386/boot.efi+
+Error while getting file ID of /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi. Ignoring...+
+Workaround Bonjour: Unknown error: 0+
I am now on 8.2.1(6) after having burn issues with 8.1
I am lost. Is this a hardware, program, driver issue?

Can't change new song settings/names/anything

I've recently put some new songs into itunes from different CDs. As opposed to the other songs I have on there, I can't change anything about the songs - the names, artists, can't change the volume settings (which is the biggest hassle).
what's going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This hapened to me once.
What I did was burn the song onto another CD and then import the cd into Itunes.
It fixed the problem.

Burn disc - 1970 creation date

I burn folders to discs from the menu ("Burn ABC to Disc"), which usually works fine except for one thing: the creation date on every single file is changed to 12/31/1969, which - not surprisingly - can show up as 1/1/1970 in the Terminal.
- The modification and acces times of the files on disc are correct.
- The original files have correct creation dates - seen both in the Finder and Terminal ("ls -lU").
Is there any way to burn discs that fixes this problem?
Thanks

The date is significant in Unix systems, is called "the epoch". You see, date and time are stored as an integer number counting the seconds that have elapsed since the 'start of time'. If the counter is set to zero, Unix thinks it has just been born, which is the first second of the first day of 1970: 1/1/1970, 0:0:1.
In your case, I have no idea why the creation date is reverted to that, while the modification and access dates are not. Perhaps someone else who has recently burned folders to disk can pipe in after checking the results, so we can pinpoint whether this is something isolated to your Mac or a a general Lion bug.

When i right click on a playlist it is not giving me a burn disc option????

Can anybody help with this problem.
I right click on my playlists and am not getting a burn disc or burn playlist to disc option.
Is there another way i can try and burn a disc?
Thanks in advance.

This may be caused by the changes that Ubuntu makes.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Chapter playlists ok in preview, not on burned disc

one long soccer timeline of 66 minutes, chapter playlists set up properly, all ok in preview but out of 15 chapter playlists, 4 do not work on burned disc...tried making image then burning on different media...no change....remade project from start and different playlists now not working...returns to proper menu but not at end of chapter, on TV dvd display chapter has appropriate time remaining but disc jumps to menu wrongly.....if i fast forward dvd it sticks for a second at point where it wrongly returns to the menu then continues in fast forward mode ....all playlists set up the same, links are right...

Dan,
Can't thank you enough for taking the time to hazard a guess about my problem.
I'm a real newbie with regard to video editing, so not conversant with much of the language, but all of the movie's clips were recorded in 16-bit stereo and the resulting DVD was played back through my television, which is a widescreen playing through its own speakers. I think the pertinent information, however, is that everything in the movie plays perfectly with the exception of this one clip, which was produced in exactly the same way as the rest of the movie. The one difference is that we used a different microphone for this clip. But again, this clip, like the rest of movie, plays fine when being previewed in the computer. Go figure.

Best scratch discs settings for CS3

I have read that a PC with 3 hard drives should use them as follows:
Drive 1 = OS & programs
Drive 2 = Media & projects
Drive 3 = Previews, Media cache, Exports
Can somebody please advise are these the best scratch disc settings under preferences:
Captured video & audio - Drive 2
Video & audio previews - Drive 3
Media cache - Drive 3
DVD encoding - Drive 3

Thanks guys,
I've taken on board everything you've said and have changed my hard drive setup accordingly.
I've also deleted a lot of unwanted material and defragged the drives.
I've aslo turned off windows indexing off and removed all unnecessary programs.
I now have 3 drives, one for the OS & programs, one for projects, and one for previews & exports as advised.
I've set the scratch disc settings as follows:
Captured Video & audio: Drive 2 (Same as project)
Video & audio Previews: Drive 3
Media Cache: Drive 3
DVD Encoding: Drive 3
Would you say this the most efficient way?
Brian

"The Attempt to burn disc failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser

I was trying to burn a cd the other day and it failed and this massage came up.
"The attempt to burn disc failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."
does anyone know how to get rid of this or know how to fix it?

In my experience the problem is random. Sometimes I burn with no problem. This morning my first burn worked fine. Then I had 4 failures in a row. Tried changing nothing. Tried changing burn speed. Tried quitting itunes,etc. Nothing always works so I assume that my manipulations are having no effect even though eventually it works. I am now having a sucessful burn. Thank goodness that it does not ruin the blank but it seems to be increasing in frequency. I used to have the problem once and then could burn 4-5 successfully. Now I've had 3 successes our of 8-9 tries.
Why doesn't apple address this problem? I see hundreds of posts with the same problem. Many are archived. Some like this thread claim to answered. But the problem is that, in my experience, the problem comes and goes. Sometimes I have sucess without changing anything after a failure. Today I quit iTunes and when I started it up again it failed once and now its just finished a sucessful burn. I'm burning the same playlist each time of unprotected music but I notice no difference whether I'm burning purchased music, ripped music, downloaded music, aiff, aac, acc protected, mpeg or a mixture of same.
My sucessful burn was at 6X. Now I'm having a sucessful burn at maximum possible (6X takes too long!). Two in row!
I am using tiger 10.4.5 1 ghz powerpc g4 512 mb ddr sdram with about 10 gigs free on the hard drive it that's of any relevance.
Just realized that if I can count to 30 before the intialization goes to writing it is going to fail. So what? I don't know, can't stand the suspense.
