Chapter titles shift when burning DVD

I line up the chapter titles in ine verticle line. The look perfect on the menu page during set up. When I burn the DVD some of the chapter names shift so they don't line up. This seems to happen often.

I've lined up chapter markers vertically, turning off "snap to grid" and turning on the "free position" option and that seems to be stable through the burned DVD.
Patrick, I don't know if this jives with standard etiquette on the forum (I'm relatively new here) but would you please take a look at my question at

  • Internal software error: .\vobulator\titleplanner\cgopgrouper.cpp, line 401 when burning DVD with sl

    I am burning a DVD that has 10 slideshows. Each slideshow is treated as a chapter. I have burned DVDs in the past using this method with no problems. Now, with this project I get the following.
    internal software error: .\vobulator\titleplanner\cgopgrouper.cpp, line 401

    This error came up again (the first time i had to rebuild), and i figured out that it had to do with a clip i had in a timeline that needed trimming, and would not butt up cleanly to the preceeding clip. i am assuming that the chapter point i inserted did not fall on a GOP, and generated this error.
    when i took that clip out of the timeline and put it in it's own seperate timeline, the disc burned with no problem.
    hope this help someone else skip the frustration i had.

  • Hardware Error when burning DVD's

    I keep getting an error message when burning DVD's using Toast Titanium on my iMac..it reads:
    "Drive Reported an error, Sense key = hardware error, sense code = 0 x 03."
    Twice after getting that message I couldn't continue to burn and it stopped, once it did continue to burn and finished successfully. Any ideas, anyone?
    17" iMac G5 w/ iSight   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   upgraded to 1GB RAM

    I get the same message today when burning from Toast 7.02 on my iMac. It happened when I was trying to make an audio CD from my iTunes collection (not when Copying from CD to CD). The exact message I got in the middle of my burn was:
    The drive reported an error:
    Sense Key = hardware Error
    Sense Code = 0x03, 0x01
    I tryed again with another CD and got the same thing. I never had a problem with these CD's (TDK CD-R up to 48x).
    I wonder if there has to be some sort of software upgrade fro Roxio Toast or is this a superdrive malfunction/etc. My Superdrive gets very loud during this burn as well. I may take it in to Apple Genius Bar. Any ideas?

  • Unable to obtain full screen when burning DVD

    I have a trial version of Adobe Premiere Elements
    8. When burning dvd and then playing on my tv through dvd player I am not getting a full screen. The wide screen video covers about 3/4 of the screen instead of the entire screen. The settings I am using are NTSC widescreen dolbyDVD, and Quality is checked with no changes in quality. The preview screen is set  on a magnificatgion fit. The Video is centered on the preview screen. I have spent hours trying to resolve this problem? I have a trial version and not sure if want to purchase with this problem.
    I tried to upload the 8.01 up grade and my computer just blinks on and off; will not load?

    I have been having the same problems.  See my discussion threads on aspect ratios in the past few days.
    Let me share my thoughts on this.  Apparently Elements 8 is optimized to work on 4:3 CRT TV's; HD flat screen TV's must not have made much penetration in India yet.  So when you set the output for NTSC widescreen, what Elements does is compress the widescreen data into a 4:3 frame, squeezing the image horizontally.  Counterintuitively, what you have to do is select NTSC normal.  Then Elements does not further squeeze the widescreen data.  What it then does is fit it into a 16:9 letterbox, still containing the left and right bars, within the 4:3 frame.  Set the DVD to playback in widescreen mode, which expands the letterbox image to full width of the TV, though retaining the left and right bars, then zoom the TV image to full the screen, to eliminate all the bars top, bottom and sides.  Worked for me, but I used a SD camcorder set to record in widescreen.
    A better option might be to change the default pixel aspect ratio, which I am yet unable to effectuate.

  • Serious Error Shut Down when Burning DVD

    When attempting to burn DVD, Premiere Elements 3.0 immediately says there has been a serious error and program must shut down. Video was captured from camcorder, is about 12 minutes, just a couple of scene buttons on scene menu. Using an HP 2.4 ghz quad-core PC with 3 GB ram. I'm using DVD burner in other programs with no problem.

    Success---I followed some troubleshooting links and the one that worked was as follows:
    4. Re-create the Premiere Elements PluginCache.
    The PluginCache is a Windows registry entry that contains information regarding the status of all native and third-party plug-ins used with Premiere Elements. To re-create the file, hold down the Shift key while choosing Start > Programs > Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0. Release the key when the Select Initial Workspace window appears.
    Thanks for all the help...hard to believe the fix is as simple as holding down the shift key as the progam starts!!

  • Error when burning DVD

    I just bought a Mac a few weeks ago, and have had some trouble burning DVD's. I have a G5 running 10.3.9, with a Pioneer Superdrive. I try to burn an image in Disk Utility, but get the error message "The disc is reserved for exclusive use by another application". When I try just burning files using finder, it says "This disc cannot be used". I have tried DVD-R and DVD+R. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi macaboo
    Welcome to apple discussions. Just to add to the already excellent advice kindly provided to you by Fred Shippey;
    I too have one or two suggestions:
    First is to delete the plist for iDvd (but first quit the app). The plist is located in your preferences folder and looks like this (assuming the app has been launched at least once):
    com.apple.iDvd.plist
    Now try your iDvd project again. But if that too fails then ...
    Delete encoded assets from the Advanced menu tab and then try the burn again.
    That procedure looks like this. Hope this helps but if not just come on back. Good luck.

  • Error when burning dvd's

    I have a satellite a305 with vista. I had been downloading torrents awhile back and got a nasty something because my computer went crazy. I managed to "fix" it except that the keyboard and mouse were nonresponsive. A usb mouse worked but no usb keyboard would install. Despite this, I was still able to burn dvd's.
    Now, since it is unacceptable to NOT have a properly working keyboard I had to factory reset the computer. Now it all works great.
    EXCEPT when I burn a dvd (dropping files to it....I haven't downloaded any 3rd party software) it starts to encode...gets to about 3.5% and then encodes super fast (usually burning a dvd takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours) and eject the disc after 30 seconds. A window pops up saying an error ocurred while burning the dvd. I am using memorex dvd-r discs. It did the same thing when I used my old disks (Sony dvd-r) but I assumed that since they were scratched a bit that must be causing an error.
    I just want to make my DVD's. So frustrated!! I tried checking to see if Toshiba had a driver update I was missing since I did an out of the box reset, but they're screen to choose my laptop doesn't have my model available.
    Any ideas for me?

    Since Toast is not an Apple product, you should probably post your question on Roxio's discussion boards:

  • Error occur when burning DVD

    My macbook pro can't burn DVD, both DVD-r and DVD+R DL.
    I tried to use a better media (eg. verbatim) and slower speed (1X)
    but the problem comes again and again.
    I suspect the error may relate to the failure of "laser component" in the DVD drive
    Because when I was using LiquidCD ,whcih is a DVD buring software, to burn DVDs,
    the error message said that the software cannot control the strength of the laser.
    Does it mean the problem relates to the failure of "laser component" in the DVD drive?
    Also, I tried Hardware Test, but it said everything is fine.
    Any method can help to check or solve the problem?

    Take it to an Apple Store or call Applecare assuming it is under warranty. Is this problem only with this software, which I have to admit I have never heard of.
    Out of warranty I'd get an external burner vs. fix it since they perform better anyway.

  • Error when burning DVD - no plugin DLLS

    When burning a DVD I get an error message that says Plugin Coder error : no plugin DLLS.  Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

    They do but aren't cheap.
    Look at SuperMediaStore.
    You might be able to find them cheaper. I was just checking to see if they make them.

  • Error when burning DVD RW (Error Code 0x8002006E)

    Works with DVD +R, -R, CDR... but it wont burn DVD+RW for some reason
    I had this problem 3 years ago when it refused to burn CDs, and I had my ODD replaced with one of these
    MATSHITA DVD-R   UJ-857E:
      Firmware Revision:          ZF1E
      Interconnect:          ATAPI
      Burn Support:          Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
      Cache:          2048 KB
      Reads DVD:          Yes
      CD-Write:          -R, -RW
      DVD-Write:          -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
      Write Strategies:          CD-TAO, CD-SAO, DVD-DAO
      Media:          Insert media and refresh to show available burn speeds
    So here I am again having the same problem - 'burning the disk failed because an unexpected error occured (Error Code 0x8002006E)
    I tried both burning from Finder and disk utiilty. I tried quickly erasing the data on it, which was nothingnd when I tried to burn something it threw up this error -  'The disk can't be burned, because the devide failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media' (their bad grammer not mine)
    So what is this a software problem or another faulty ODD?
    I ran a hardware test recently and no problems were identified.

    I just tried it again using a different account, same problem. I was burning DVD+Rs already today, then I went out and bought a packet of discs from tesco DVD+RW and they wont burn no matter which way I try it. I remember having this problem with Tesco CDRs 3 years ago when I sent my macbook in for repair, but I think I have used tesco discs since thren without problems. I've had trouble on two occasions reading music CDs as well + the drive is sluggish and noisy when inserting/ejecting discs.
    Finding a lot of threads on this and not really much in the way of solutions. At best I've been able to ascertain that the problem is probably software related owing to the error code.
    I don't know what else to try. I hope tesco take back this stack of discs that's probably got nothing wrong with them, I doubt Apple will refund me.
    This computer has just turned out to be an endless source of problems and headaches.

  • Help!  Toast keeps stopping when burning dvd

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook 2ghz with 1gb memory 667mhz ddr sdram using mac osx version 10.4.11 and am having problems with Roxio Toast Titanium version 9.
    Basically, I am burning say 4 .avi movie files some with subtitles onto a dvd as a divx disc and toast burns the dvd to about 47% then it just stops and I have to quit the program. Can anyone help me with this? It worked fine when I had version 8 then it started doing the above so I got version 9 and nothings changed. Version 9 works fine on my other computer. It is really frustrating. Should I remove some files from my computer to help....
    I have just updated the firmware on my computer and still nothing works. To be more specific when toast is 'encoding' it always stops responding at 47%.

    Hello there,
    thanks for your message there is 24.5gb free space. I just noticed that one particular .avi file is causing the problem. Toast burnt the other movies fine (on a separate disc) and when burning the message would come up 'writing...' but when I burn this problem .avi file a message comes up saying 'encoding...' so toast is treating it differently for some reason and then it only does 47% and stops working. I tried with different versions of toast but same problem only with this particular avi file. I am not so bothered now as it is only one movie (although a good one!) but i would like to know what is causing it. Do you think it's because I don't have enough free space?

  • G5 Tower - When Burning DVDs Finder Restarts

    I have always been able to burn DVDs on this tower with no problems. Now I insert a blank DVD-R to burn and the disk icon shows up. I rename it, drag my files to it and then click 'burn disk'. The computer pauses for a second and then crashes the finder. Haven't made any upgrades to this machine so not sure why this is happening. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? I have set my CD/DVD prefs to 'Open in Finder" as suggested in another thread and it's still not working. The DVD drive is a Sony internal (came with system when new).

    You can try upping your ram voltage to 2.65, 2.7 or 2.8, whichever is next.
    What are your system and cpu temps just before the crash?
    I don't think it is a factor, but generally the DVD writers make better masters than slaves.

  • Setting quality when burning dvd

    Hi, I'm working on my first project on my brand new iMac. Finished creating the 23 minute movie, shared it in iDVD and burned it and found the quality to be quite low. I'll try a better quality dvd, but through reading these posts I've seen mention of settings that relate to the quality of a disk...where would this be in the process? Thanks for the help (and the patience!)

    Welcome to the Forum...
    Select "Project Info" under "Project" menu item...
    Select "Professional Quality" for "Encoding" for the best quality rendering to DVD. The "Best Perf" option is a misnomer...read below for details...
    More info from Apple Help file:
    +The encoding settings in iDVD are the following:+
    ◼
    +Best Performance+
    +When you select Best Performance, iDVD encodes your video in the background as you’re working on your project instead of waiting until you burn it. This can significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to create a finished DVD. This is a good choice if your project is an hour or less in duration (for a single-layer disc). You’ll finish your project more quickly, and the encoding quality will be excellent for the amount of video you have.+
    +Best Performance encodes your video at a preset bit rate that produces great quality for projects that can easily fit on your disc. If you have a larger project that needs to be squeezed onto a disc, you should select one of the other encoding options.+
    ◼
    +High Quality+
    +This is the best encoding option for larger projects that are between 1 and 2 hours long (for a single-layer disc). With this setting, iDVD chooses the best bit rate possible for the amount of data you need to fit onto your disc. It’s the only option that “squeezes” all the data onto a disc at a bit rate that ensures a high video quality in your burned DVD. Because iDVD does not encode in the background with this option, it takes longer to burn your disc. The encoding process begins when you burn the DVD instead of when you start working on your project.+
    ◼
    +Professional Quality+
    +The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned about time.+
