Copy and Burn a DVD

Hi...
I have a non-copyrighted DVD that I want to copy. How do I do that with just one drive? Isn't there a way to copy the DVD to burn onto another DVD?
Thanks
Shelley

If you try the Help menu, entering "copy dvd" you get the following:
Duplicating a CD or DVD
You can make copies of a CD or DVD and the information it contains. To do so, use Disk Utility to create a copy, or “disk image,” of the disc, and then burn that image to another disc.
For more information about duplicating a CD or DVD, open Disk Utility (in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder) and choose Help > Disk Utility Help

  • Copy  and burn personal DVDs  to play on  TVs?

    I have personal DVDs of family members that I would like to share with other family members. Looking up possible procedures I see different approaches, some of which require download of an application. None of them seem particularly simple. Any suggestions?

    If you have software app such as Roxio Toast, you can copy/burn your own content (not copy-righted) from one DVD to another very easily. Simply pop in the DVD, copy it, and then burn it to another DVD. You need to be careful as the content needs to be encoded to be able to be played on DVD players. I do not know if Disk Utility can actually do that - I know it can do so on DVDs being played on other computers, but I do not know if it can encode properly to be played on DVD players.

    Thanks for the follow up.
    In Premiere Elements 13/13.1, your export choices are in the Publish+Share section of the project. There are several choices and sub-choices.
    Example: Publish+Share/Computer/and then a list of choices under that, such as, MPEG, AVI, AVCHD, XAVC-S, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, Audio.
    And each has Presets which define the export settings. Adobe offers default settings which are usually optimized ones. But, it also allows you to customize the preset selected. You do that by clicking on the Advanced Button of the selected preset and customizing the settings under the Video Tab, Audio Tab, and, if applicable, Multiplexer Tab.
    From what you wrote, I thought that you might be asking about exporting a video with a video codec = Photo JPEG.
    To do that you would to to
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    QuickTime
    with Presets = either the one for 4:3 of 16:9 as appropriate for your project,
    and then clicking on the Advanced Button, and then the Video Tab under the Advanced Button.
    Then selecting Photo JPEG for the video codec field.
    Tip: The QuickTime choice is not seen unless you scroll down the list of Computer choices. Use the thin scroll bar to the right of the Computer choices.
    Please explore Premiere Elements 13/13.1's Publish+Share/Disc/DVD with standard or widescreen preset for your creation of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
    The Premiere Elements timeline destined for this choice could consistent of supported photos and or videos.
    Please consider.
    Any questions and need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.

    Sorry, but I don't know anything about that app.
    I did go to their Web site and I see they have a support link. Perhaps you can get help there or in their forum.
    If you are OK with a DVD with a basic menu, you could try the Share>DVD option in FCP.
    Good luck.

  • How to Make a Still from Video and Burning a DVD

    Hello All,
    I am using FCP HD and I would like to know how do you make a still photo from video footage?
    Also I have to burn an editing project to dvd. I don't know how to use studio pro, but the person said that it needs to be a ntsc full resolution version. I am not sure what that means.
    The project is about 10 minutes long and this person had me using the H.264. I have been playing around and I think I not doing something write because when I send the project to compressor it tells me that I have like 200+ hours befoe it outputs.
    Could someone give me some simple instructions using the H.264 on how to do a good large size (over 320x240) QT movie to dvd?
    THANKS...

    To export a still park the playhead on the image you want, mark IN OUT, go to FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME CONVERSION. Click on QUICKTIME MOVIE and In the dropdown choose STILL IMAGE.
    You will have to De-Interlace it in Photoshop after you export.
    As for making the DVD:
    Shane's Stock Answer #3:
    To export your DV project so there is no loss in quality, simply go to the File Menu and select EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. Not Quicktime Conversion, fot this will compress the footage. Make sure the settings match your timeline settings, make it self contained and you are set.
    Import this into iDVD or DVDSP and burn your DVD. Don't go the h.264 route.

  • How do I create a wide screen movie in Premiere Elements 7 and burn to DVD or Blue Ray?

    I have created a movie using project settings of 16:9 and also filmed in this format.  The movie I burned to DVD is not in wide screen. I have requested assistance and given instructions to go through share and select Sony PSP.  However this creates a file which is saved to my computer in mpeg-4 format which will not burn to my DVD.  I am using a Blue Ray burner which looks as if it will only take MP3.  Any suggestions?

    I haven't actually done a BluRay yet - waiting to get everything right and,
    hopefully, will be able to put more than 1 movie when all is finished!
    That's my next challenge. I initially used Share/Disc to burn the DVD with,
    I thought, all the settings for widescreen.  It has always worked OK in
    Pinnacle.  When I lodged the problem with tech support they sent me
    instructions using the Sony PSP.  Interestingly I use a Sony camera, have a
    Sony disc burner plus Sony TV and Playstation so you'd think they'd all talk
    to each other!!!

    Are your creating and burning your DVD (or is it a BluRay disc?) from
    Premiere Elements by choosing Share/Disc?
    If so, it should produce a widescreen disc.
    Sometimes DVD players don't automatically read home-burned DVDs as
    widescreen and you have to manually switch it. But at the very least the
    video should be either letterboxed or stretched.

    Have you looked at Delete and Close Gap as well as Delete for what you describe?
    Nonetheless, adding or moving clips to an existing Timeline content without disturbing the existing Timeline content can be challenging and complex under certain scenarios.
    Typical solutions include making these moves with a keyboard modified held down (Windows Alt or Ctr). I am strictly an Elements Windows user, so we will need to find the Mac counterparts for the Windows keyboard modifier techniques.
    Also, if one move triggers a multi-chain disaster, then you should consider grouping block of clips so that they do not move while you are busy with your Timeline maneuvers. Check out the Clip Menu options for Group and Ungroup.
    Some times in the "Mac condition", you need to use fn in addition to the command to achieve some of these Windows counterparts.
    The following video tutorial on arranging clips and keyboard modifiers is being posted for informational non promotional reasons.
    Premiere Elements: Arranging clips on the Timeline using modifier keys | lynda.com - YouTube
    It is demo'd with Premiere Elements 8, but the principles are the same for later versions of the program.
    Here is one variation of the issue on Windows.
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE: Delete and Close Gap Failures
    You should not have to delete audio to prevent it from being split by an addition to an existing Timeline. The keyboard modifiers should help you resolve this type of issue.
    Please review and consider.
    Thanks.

  • Copying and burning dvds

    hi
    i am wondering how you copy dvds and then burn them.
    i went on a forum and they suggested mac the ripper. It is all above board dvd's, they are training videos that i have to copy for my boss, nothing illegal.
    when i used mac the ripper it put the dvd into a folder (a VIDEO_TS folder ) that i cannot open.
    burning them i guess i would use idvd, as i have made dvds myself and burnt with that.
    i am sorry if i sound a bit stupid but.....so be it!
    so the how do i copy a dvd???
    thank you

    After you get the Video TS folder on your desktop, you simply drag it to Your choice of either DSK Utility , or Toast and put in a blank DVD-R and click burn.
    If you are not familiar with DVD Burning it can get confusing in a hurry at first.
    To help you out a little.
    Standard DVD's are 4.7 gb in size.
    Most Data, and Audio is not a problem.
    Most people run into there problem when trying to copy a commercially made DVD that may have 6 or 7 GB on it. Thus it will not fit on a Standard 4.7GB DVD.
    Here is where you need a top of the line software to accomplish this task.
    Roxio's Toast 7, or Popcorn.
    What it does is read the Video TS folders size and content and then it automatically compresses the content to fit on a 4.7 GB DVD.
    All of this is done with a couple of clicks of the mouse.
    Using Apple's software to copy is fine through the Disc Utility for Audio, and Data, and some Video, Take note that Apples furnished software is entry level and there are only certain things it is capable of.
    Hope this helps. Don

  • Wanna make a slide show of my photos and burn to dvd

    I just got my mac.  Novice at best.
    However, I am a quick study.
    Tech nerd. 
    I want to make a slide show of photos and burn to a dvd for my "non-tech" parents to play in their dvd player.
    What's the easiest way.

    The easiest way is to use iDVD; however, Apple doesn't bundle that with new Macs and you can't buy it from the App Store. It is apparently still available on iLife disks, but you'd want to check the label.
    iPhoto will create a nice slideshow which can be converted to a movie. Then you will need something like iDVD or Toast to create the DVD.  http://support.apple.com/kb/VI195
    As you say you are new to Macs, I don't imagine you have an old copy of iDVD on another Mac.

  • IPhoto and Burning a DVD

    I'd like to get my old photos off of my hard drive, and on to a DVD...But I'm new and nervous.
    If I burn them onto DVD, and then erase them from my hard drive, can I move them back on to iPhoto at a later date?
    I guess I'm nervous that once I take them off my hard drive, I'll never be able to see them again. Can somebody help me out with some info?
    Maybe there are some tips out there for storage?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Yes, you can burn your photos to a DVD, and then transfer them back to you iMac later if you wish. Here is an excerpt from an Apple article on the subject:
    "Question 5: Can I burn a CD or DVD to back up my iPhoto library?
    Answer: Yes, you can easily back up your iPhoto library by using the CD burning capabilities of Mac OS X. Simply insert a blank CD into your internal or external CD-RW drive and copy the iPhoto library to the CD icon on your desktop. When you drag the CD icon to the Trash/Eject button in the Dock, you are given the option to burn the CD. Click Burn and the CD is created. To burn a DVD backup of your digital images, use iDVD and a SuperDrive-equipped Mac."
    Another option is to purchase an external hard disk on which to store your photographs.
    I hope this helps.

  • I have created a movie in 16:9 format. I have created an iDVD pane in 16:9 but when I preview the movie that pane changes to 4:3 and burns the DVD as a 4:3 movie. How can I stop that, please I am in Snow Leopard, using FCE4.0.1?

    I am using Snow Leopard and have created a movie in 16:9 format (SD not HDV) I created a movie which stays in the 16:9 format in fcp file, .mov fiule and MP4 file. I created an iDVD pane in 16:9 but when I play the movie in the iDVD preview window the iDVD pane switches to 4:3 and it burns the DVD in 4:3. How can I stop this so I get a16:9 DVD. Thanks for any help offered

    Hi
    As I see this I see two parts
    • Howto go from FinalCut to iDVD
    • Howto set iDVD right
    In FinalCut Express (to 4) or Pro (to 6 - most probably 7 too)
    • One has to set Anamorphic in the Browser window - menu columns
    • Export as QuickTime movie .mov - NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION
    In iDVD there are TWO places to set - WideScreen
    - Start a NEW iDVD project - AND HERE SELECT WideScreen 16:9
    - in Project - select Projectinfo
    - now set WideScreen 16:9 - Here too
    This use to work for me.
    FOR FinalCut Pro-X - I have not a Clue - as I don't use it. SORRY
    BTW - There is a good practice to before BURNING the DVD do
    • Save as a DiskImage
    • Test this by using DVD-Player tool
    And if it is OK Size and All - then burn it by using
    • Disk Util tool
    • here set down burn speed to x4 or less (less burn errors = plays on more devices and better)
    • Not using Memorex or NoName etc cheap media - as they usually DO NOT WORK as Video-DVDs
    • I use Verbatim DVD-R as they play on more and even older DVD-players

  • HT203242 I use ipod classic 120G. When I launch itunes I first of all see a message "The registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning cds & DVDs are missing." I cannot sync my ipod. Any ideas?

    I use an ipod classic 120G. When I try to launch itunes I first of all see a box stating "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"   This I have done. obviously I cannot burn CDs but worse still is my ipod is not being recognised by itunes and will not sync. I have not installed any new burning softeware. Any suggestions please?

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)
