Create DVD issue

I have been trying to burn a DVD using Compressor 4. I have tried by using the preset DVD option as well as selecting my own Disc Burn option. What happens is the files are compressed and when there is only a few seconds to complete the process it stops and does not ask me to insert a blank DVD. I would really appreciate some assistance with this.
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul.
I can't recall, when I've done this, whether I have inserted a DVD blank prior to the encoding job or not. I don't use that workflow very much and I can't test it right now.
Try selecting Hard Drive for Output Device in Job Actions. If that works, you can burn your physical DVD from DIsk Utility (or Finder).
Good luck.

Aspect ratio issue when watching 16'9 idvd created DVDs on regular players

I am having problems with the aspect ratio of any DVDs that I burn in iDVD as 16'9 - The original video is 16'9 and edited as such in FCP, then exported with current settings selected and then in iDVD I select a widescreen project - preview of the project is fine and when the DVD is done it plays with the correct aspect ratio if I watch on the computer's internal DVD player - but my issue is when I watch on any regular DVD player (on a widescreen tv of course) all the video looks tall and skinny, including the menu. The only way I found to get the video to look like it's natural proportion is to switch the settings to 4'3 on the DVD player, then it creates almost a "super-widescreen" look where there are bars at the top and bottom of the screen. On the otherhand, when i used to shoot in 4'3 and create DVDs as 4'3 projects, I NEVER had this problem when watching on a regular DVD player on widescreen TV! It would take up the whole screen and look normal (I know it must stretch it to fit, but it wasn't noticable). I thought creating a 16'9 video I should be able to watch on a widescreen TV and it should take up the whole screen and look normal. Please help!

No, that is not the way it should work. This may help:

Create DVD button not working

My "Create DVD" button is not clickable.was working fine for weeks. Had a "QMaster" problem but downloaded Digital Rebellion to fix it. Now, the QMaster issue is no longer BUT the Create DVD button cannot be clicked.Dragged the Compressor icon to the trash and reinstalled, same problem. Have rebooted and tried again, same problem.is killing
Time deadline of course...ugh!
Thank you

Sorry, didn't know that would be relevent since it worked for a month.
Compressor 4.1.3 and FCPX 10.1.3 -- Have not had any previous versions...have had them both installed for about a months.
Latest info: received help but problem not solved. I CAN make a DVD from inside FCPX using the export command. Tech suggested QMaster files corrupt and removed the two QMaster files and placed them on my desktop so software would not find them and would recreate them. Rebooted system. Still cannot click "create dvd" inside Compressor.
I work on an iMac with bootcamp installed...I have the machine in Mac mode running...

Footage "hops" after creating DVD

I couldn't think of a better word than "hops." Sorry When playing the clips before adding to Encore the clips play fine. Imported into Encore and created a DVD and now the main feature of the DVD has issues. Any parts of the video where there is movement(actors moving, talking, etc) the video looks fine but anything that is not moving in say a static shot with objects in the foreground, the objects bounce noticeably bad.. I have placed three different video files on the DVD and only one does this so I am thinking there is some sort of compression or rendering issue with the options I choose.
I believe the one that has the issues I rendered out of Premiere CS5 as the H.264: Youtube HD with defaults.(29.97 fps)
The Outtakes reel I rendered to H.264: Youtube SD with defualts and that seems fine(29.97 fps)
The shortened version of the film I rendered in H.264:Vimeo HD (30 fps and other tweaks vimeo's site suggested as I had issues uploading to their site unless I did this exactly.
I am re-rendering the footage with h.264 DVD720(not the offical name) and added the tweak Vimeo suggests from their site. I am hoping this works if not then I will go with the Vimeo preset with tweaks. I guess i am curious why this happens and if there is a suggested format I should be doing when creating DVDs? I normally do not do DVDs and just upload to YT or Vimeo so this is new ground for me.
Thanks,
Rich

Hi Rich,
You are doing yourself a disservice if you think you have this all sorted out now. Stan made the correct suggestion at the start that you need to encode to MPEG-2 for DVD, but you seem to be on a totally different path of your own choosing.
The official DVD specification calls for MPEG-2. Nothing else. You can feed Encore YouTube clips or whatever you want, but they will ALWAYS, without exception, get converted to MPEG-2 before they ever get burned to the DVD. Nothing else will work.
You are correct that MPEG-2 files are larger than your YouTube clips - because the H.264 clips are more compressed for the web. By converting to H.264 from Premiere, you are highly compressing the video, tossing out a bunch of data that you will never get back later.
The proper workflow from Premiere is to encode directly to MPEG-2 for DVD in Media Encoder. The resulting file is then DVD-ready when you import it in to Encore. It will not be converted again, and the quality is just one generation away from the original source. As stated earlier, if you bring your H.264 clip into Encore, it has to transcode it to MPEG-2 anyway. Now you have encoded the file twice...time wasted, quality lost, extra space taken on the hard drive...what was gained?
Also - if your source was 1080i or SD, it was interlaced. Converting to an "H.264 for web" format deinterlaces the video to Progressive. With SD footage, that means you threw away half the resolution. Half the picture, gone.
If you DO need to create an intermediate file for some reason, there are "lossless" .avi codecs that come to mind like Lagarith or UT, but I never think of YouTube videos and quality together ;-)
Please reconsider your workflow, and your viewers will thank you
Regards,
Jeff

4.0.5 Making "Create DVD" but nothing happens...

I'm trying to make a DVD with my movie but Compressor hangs up on the message "Waiting"... and nothing happens...
Please help...
That's what I get:

I'm running into this same issue with Compressor 4.07 on a new MacBookPro with Retina and external Super Drive. How did you solve it?
It makes files for DVDs OK but when I add the Create DVD function, it hangs up close to the end. I let it run all night to see if it just needed time but nothing had changed over 8 hours later.
Did you do something to make it work for you or did it just need time?

Creating DVDs

I am trying to use an external LaCie d2 DVD burner to create DVDs but my success rate is running close to nil. I would welcome and appreciate any suggestions as to how I can begin to troubleshoot this problem.
I am using the latest version of iDVD but it seems as if nothing I am creating is actually making its way onto the disk in the LaCie. I am beginning to lose sleep over this issue.

Ok well first off which version are you using? This is the version 6 group, but your info indicates an eMac running OS 10.3.9, so perhaps you bought iLife6 or you are really running an earlier version?
And when you try to make DVDs what happens? Nothing? Errors? If so what do they say? It seems to work but then the DVD doesn't play? ???? ???? ????

Is there a way to create DVD chapters in iDVD?

Is there a way to create DVD chapters in iDVD? I don't see any options for it in iDVD. Also, I don't want to have to import all the footage back into imovie. Thanks

So, what if iDVD 7.1.2 doesn't recognize the chapters from iMovie 10.0.5?
Apple has removed the ability to create chapters in iMovie 10
I use iMovie 06 to do this. It works perfectly with Mavericks, as does iDVD. You can purchase iMovie on disk as part of iLife 06, readily available on Amazon and eBay.
It's quite shocking that another feature has been removed from the once mighty iMovie.

Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

As far as I know, motion templates can only be used with DVD Studio Pro. FCP X only lets you add a background image to the DVD menu.

Problem with premiere elements 3.0 (titles when creating DVD)

I am using version 3.0 and when you go to create DVD there should be the option to insert titles or menu page at the start of your DVD, well that has disappeared from my programme. We had problems with the pc so had to reinstall alot of the programmes on it but the titles never came back when we re-installed the programme. I have tried everything i can think of but there are still no titles or menus available. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Give this a try and see if it helps.

How to create DVD recovery on different language?

I bought Satellite 655-149 with windows 7 64bit turkish, I would like to install windows XP russian. How to create DVD disk with drivers?

Hey,
I agree with the user above. The recovery disk that you create, contains the same language as preinstalled OS.
For example if an English version is preinstalled, the recovery disk contains only English language.
If you want another language you have to buy a new version of Windows 7.
Last but not least on Windows 7 Ultimate you can use different language packs:

Recommendations for creating dvd case inserts?

Hello! As far as I can tell, iDVD 6 has no feature for creating dvd case covers/inserts.
I'd appreciate recommendations for inexpensive or free software for making such covers.
Thanks!
David

You're welcome, David. I'm not familiar with all the Sharpie product line, but the common one that marks anywhere uses a fairly harsh solvent, and in theory could eat through to the reflective coating of the DVD. I found a Memorex product at Fry's Electronics named, "CD Marker." It is labeled non-toxic, water-based.
Personally, I've not had any problems with the sticky labels (I've used Memorex and CD Stomper labels for a few years) but there are some strong feelings opposed to their use (and I can imagine a problem could come up in 10-15 years). You can do a search in these forums; an alternative is printing directly onto the DVD if you have the right printer and disks.

Video from an already created DVD

Is there any way at all to remove video from an already created DVD into Final Cut?

Use MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free software) to convert the media to something like ProRes 422, then import into FCP X.
But you need to download a Quicktime component (easy to do though).
