Creating a video DVD for PAL TV using video from an NTSC Camcorder

Hey Guys,
I'll be owning an AVCHD NTSC camcorder (Canon HF S10) and need to know whether Final Cut Express includes the functionality of importing the video from the camcorder and exporting it to a DVD for a PAL TV system.
Will you share your experience?
Many thanks!
-Max

I'd suggest you do a search of the forum. This has been discussed often. Yes, FCE supports AVCHD. Most PAL DVD player will play back NTSC.

Need help creating a bootable dvd for solaris 9 using windows

Ok, I am using windows XP, I have 2 hard drives in my computer and want to load Solaris 9 on my other hard drive. I have downloaded the ziped ISO files from sun.com, I have extracted them (sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-a, sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-b, sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-c, sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-d, and sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-e) Now what? I burned them to a DVD but its not booting to them (I have checked my boot sequence) I figured I would have to make a bootable DVD but I don't know how. All the instructions I am finding are for doing it in Solaris 9. Can someone please give me instructions on what I need to do now that I have downloaded the files or point me to a site that already has the instructions? Also I have Nero 7 Essentials as my DVD burning software.
Thanks

Copy all unzipped pieces into one directory (sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-a, sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-b etc... all 5 pieces)
take command prompt and goto that directory and run the below command
copy /b sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-a + sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-b + sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-c + sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-d + sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso-e sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso.iso
It will create sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso.iso file.
Using any DVD Burner software (e.g. Nero 7 or later), Burn the newly ceated image ( sol-9-u8-ga-x86-dvd-iso.iso) do "Burn Image" (NOT a DATA DVD/CD)

Prvn

Creating training videos from screen captures?

Hello folks,
Is it possible to create interactive videos from a series of screen captures. I understand the preferred method is to use Captivate to record a session, however, all my software walk throughs are created in a VM and installing Captivate inside a VM is not always practical.
In the past, when I worked with RWD uPerform, I captured static screens using a really good/free tool called Gadwin screen capture. Once completed, I could add these screens into RWD, select clickable areas and RWD would do the rest by simulating clicks, motions, etc.
Is this possible in Captivate?
Thus far, my experience with Captivate involved doing direct recordings, in a manner similar to Camtasia.
Thank you.

Hi there
If you are seeking a smaller footprint (read mobile or possibly portable) version of Captivate, please request same using the Wish Form. Adobe development does pay attention to these. If enough folks request something or report a certain issue, it gains a higher priority on the list of features or fixes.
Cheers... Rick

After connecting my Sony camcorder to imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video the import window does not open. I have imported videos from the sam camcorder successfully before. What could have happened? Puzzled)

After connecting my Sony camcorder to Imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video to imovie 09 the import window does not open. In the past I have successfully imported videos from the same camcorder. What could have happened? Puzzled

Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
Thank you so much for beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
So your kindness is very much appreciated.

Cannot import videos from a sony camcorder.

Hi cape_surfers, and a warm welcome to the forums!
UPDATE1: About the MPEG-2 component included with iMovie ‘08
UPDATE2: After raising a stink, I figured that I’d spend a little more time trying to figure out how to make my Handycam work with native iMovie ‘08. Turns out that you have to turn on the camera, wait for OS X pick it up as a USB storage device, and then hang tight for three or four minutes until iMovie detects that your USB storage device is actually a camcorder, and presents the import dialog. I’m glad that I can import native MPEG-2, but am somewhat puzzled by the delay.

Video from JVC HD camcorder (AVCHD) jerky in iMovie

I have just purchased a JVC GZ-HM445 camcorder which records in AVCHD, the video plays perfectly from the camera to the TV when directly connected. It also plays perfecting in VLC when I drag and drop from the camcorder, but when exporting from iMovie the video is jerky!
Why does iMovie not like the AVCHD video from my new camcorder?
Intel Core 2 Duo 4MB Ram 2.4 GHz

Hi Holger
I have the same problem with Sony HDR-SR11. Takes about 5 minutes for iMovie to recognize the files.
Did you ever find a solution?

How do I create a disk image for windows 7, using a windows computer for USB bootcamp for mac?

Hi There, I have just bought a new 2013 iMac.
Spec: 3.4 GHz intel core i5, 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Memory , NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2048 MB Graphics with OS X 10.9.4.
How can I create a 'disk image' from a windows 7 professional 64bit installation DVD using a windows laptop with windows 7 Operating system on? I want to transfer this 'disk image' (ISO?) to a USB ready for installing windows onto my 2013 iMac using bootcamp? I want to use bootcamp from a USB as I have no disk drive for the installation DVD on my iMac. I hope all this is clear.
Thank you. Joe

Yes, that's correct, at least not directly. You can create a blank disk image, copy the file to the mounted disk image, then burn the image to a CD/DVD.
Open Disk Utility and select Blank Disk Image from the New menu. Provide a name, Save location, and select the image size from the drop down menu. Leave Encryptions at None and Format as read/write. Click on the Create button.
After the image file appears the "removable" disk should be automatically mounted. If not double-click on it to mount it. A "removable" disk icon will appear. Drag the file you want to place on the disk image to the "removable" disk icon. The eject the "removable" disk icon. Now select the disk image file in the DU left side list and click on the Burn icon in the DU toolbar. Be sure to have a blank disc ready.
The above is actually the "long" way to do this. A much easier way is to simply insert a blank CD or DVD into the optical drive. The Finder will pop up a dialog asking what to do. Select the option to mount on the Desktop. You will now see a disc icon on the Desktop. Drag the file you want to burn to the CD/DVD, right-click or CTRL-click on the disc icon and select Burn from the contextual menu.

Want to make a bootable DVD for Grandson to use.

I picked up a eMac at an auction and want to give it to my Grandson so he will stay off his dad's Powerbook G4. I bought the OSX 10.4 install disks so I can do a legal install. However, I plan on limiting what is installed as a lot is stuff he doesn't need. He is eleven and his dad says he is good at getting into things that can cause the computer to crash. Thus the desire to get him is own computer.
BUT, when he crashes and burns, as I fully expect him to, it would be good if he didn't need to have his dad restore the software. Dad is busy enough with two younger sons, the youngest has SMA which means he can't walk because his legs cannot get strong enough to support him.
The plan is to load the HD with the OS and selected software that he can use for school, etc. Then copy the HD on to a bootable DVD that can be used to restore the HD when needed. I don't expect to have more software than a DVD will hold. He will have to keep his data files on some other storage device, something that his dad said he is already doing after having lost some data in the past.
I remember making a bootable CD but have forgot the details. And the OS was 10.2 as I remember. It required having a bootable CD to get the boot OS from to write on the new CD. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Larry

Can I create a bootable DVD for my Macbook running 10.5.8?

I'm trying to install a larger hdd in my 2007 MacBook 13" 2.16 Core Duo. I used SuperDuper to create a disk image on an external USB drive but when I reboot with the alt/option key depressed, it only finds my internal disk. I'm guessing I can't boot this old laptop from a USB disk, so now I'm wondering if I can create a bootable DVD or CD for it. Or do I need to upgrade my OS?

Hi, if tryly a PowerMac, (PPC instead of Intel), you may need a Firewire Drive to be bootable, most PPC Macs cannot boot OSX from a USB drive.

Can I make a DVD, for TV Viewing, using .MOV files?

Sorry to bother you with this but I am new to video. I am using a G4, 1400 GHZ, 1gig RAM, OS X 10.3.9 and have Stream Clip 1.7 installed. I also have Quicktime Pro 7 with the MPEG converter. I have imported some movie footage which I intended to burn to DVD but my files are huge. One of them is about 4 gig; the others are 2.25 to 3.5 gig. I used the basic tutorial I found on your web site as a guide. I chose the "Export to Quicktime" option and withing the Movie Exporter "settings" window I chose the following:
H.264 Encoder
Quality + 100%
2 Pass
MPEG-4 AAC
27.97 frame rate
640 X 352 (unscaled)
Use B-Frames
Interlaced Scaling = OFF (unchecked)
The footage looks good, except that is is no longer wide screen (I don't know why, but I could live with it), but the files are to big to put more than one one a DVD. I am also not sure that .MOV is the best format for me to have picked since I want to be able to view this on a TV.
Can you help me out please.
Thank you.

The instructions I gave were for video from a DVD. If you are importing from a DV camera the video should be in DV format. The files will be huge, but iDVD will compress to MPEG-2 to burn to a DVD that can be played on a standard DVD player. iDVD can also use other input formats, but the quality may be lower because the video will have to be re-encoded. iDVD also has OneStep DVD to take the video directly from the camera. Look in Help in iDVD.

Create Photoshop CS4 graphics for FCP 7 use-- confusion

Still confused about creating graphics in Photoshop for import to FCP.
Been reading up on the fcp7 and cs4 changes regarding this.
Back in the day, one made larger PS files( 720x540) and scaled them down in Photoshop
to 720x480 BEFORE importing to FCP to use in a DV -NTSC sequence.
But with cs3/cs4 film/video new file template presets, do we still need to do this resizing/ change of pixel aspect ratio in PS?
Also, now with the PAR change from Adobe in cs4 and FCP adjusting their PAR,
do we need to change PARS in photoshop anymore, or on older (cs3) ps files?
Chris Meyer wrote a recent article titled "PAR for the Course" at
http://provideocoalition.com/index.php/cmgkeyframes/story/par_for_thecourse/P2/
which mentions creating PS files at a totally different size:
" ...the preferred solution - create a Production Aperture square pixel image of
720x534 (the new square pixel preset in CS4 - not 720x540). "
So00 does this mean ignore the photoshop template preset sizes and make 720x5334 masters to squeeze down pre fcp import?
It would be great to get this straightened out--
as you know, there is a lot of conflicting info out there!
Thanks in advance for any advice you may be able to share.

Thanks for posting the information.
