Dato folder on DVD

Hallo
Can someone perhaps help me out here.
I want to make a DVD with menues etc. and burn it as a regular DVD. At the same time I would like to give the customers of my client the possibility to watch the content in HD as flash rendered via Encore to a directory as well..
I would like to include the output directory of my flash render on the DVD as well, but I am not sure if there is a build in function in Encore, or another way of doing it?
In Sony DVD Architect there is something called an "extras folder" where you can put stuff that will go into the root of the DVD, but I connot find a simmilar function inside Encore, or maybe a workflow including other software.
Thanks for any input in advance.
/Ulf

In the build panel, there is a folder for "ROM" content. Just put the additional content there. You can add a menu on the regular DVD that tells them how to access it.
Be aware that local flash setup may create problems for playing the Encore to flash export, but often not.
Edit: Woof!

  • Importing songs to itunes folder from dvd's

    i have a data dvd backup of all my 1400 songs from itunes folder. i tried to import it into a newly dowloaded version of itunes on my laptop with new hard drive.. it placed all the song info in the library, so i connected my ipod and directed it to this new library. it updated ipod successfully. but when i tried to play, i realized that i had only imported the song titles, etc. into itunes folder and subsequently onto ipod.. and because i directed to this "new" library, i lost all 1400 songs on the ipod.. pls help. how do i get my music from data dvd backup to library and to ipod. and do i have to import each song separately.. there are like 25 different folders on the dvd of albums, and downloads from itunes store....i just want what i had before my hard drive died. forgive me if i didn't post this right, my first time...

    Note - You don't need to copy them to the HD first,
    as btabz suggested.
    There are different ways to import music. You can copy them (the music files) onto the HD wherever you want and then import into iTunes, or have iTunes import directly off the DVD and put the files in the iTunes Music Folder. Both ways get the music into iTunes and stored on your HD. It depends if you want the music in the iTunes Music folder or not. With the way I suggested, the music is placed where you want, instead of having iTunes put it where it wants.
    Both ways will work fine though.

  • Anyway to put data folder into dvd project

    Hey, so I am trying to make a short video for my friend using a bunch of pictures from her birthday, I burned the short movie and it works fine, though i am curious if there is a way to add all the .jpg files onto the disc after burning it in DVD SP. If not can DVD SP do this or does that require other software, thanks for your time.

    Yes
    Take a look at the manual
    You have to set it up before burning.
    When looking at the disc settings: Look in the inspector panel, usually in the lower right corner of all the panels. Bottom section is DVD-ROM, that's what you're looking for. Browse for the folder containing your jpegs.

  • Burn Folder on DVD

    This is sort of a generic iphoto question and since i have this version i decided to post here...I have an imac and also a power mac. I downloaded all my photos to the imac and created a burn folder, and loaded all my pics into that folder, burned a DVD, and imported them all onto my iphoto on my power mac. I can view these photos on iphoto, but can not do anything else...i.e. email, drag to desktop...UNLESS I have the burn folder DVD running. Is there any way to change this so that i can do whatever I want with these photos, without having to have the DVD in?

    Check your preferences on the Power mac (in iPhoto '08 - iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> advanced ) and be sure that "copy items to iPhoto Library is checked" is checked. It sounds like it is not and that iPhoto did what you requested - referenced your photos rather than copying them
    if that is the case you will need to delete the referenced photos so you do not have both the copied and the referenced photos in your library

  • Is there a way to backup only the Originals folder to DVD?

    I've really messed up the file names of my photos in several ways: by mistakenly changing a camera setting, importing some from different cameras, and editing and saving the edited versions (elsewhere, TG, not in iphoto), thereby replacing/rewriting some of my edited photos.
    However, I think all the originals, or copies of them, are in the iphoto originals folder. I'd like to save/store/archive all of them to DVD(s) that I can store elsewhere, and then delete the library - with the exception of a few favorites - and start over. When I tried to burn the library to a disk, it didn't give me the option of using multiple disks because of the size (@20G), I just got a msg stating the disk was too small. Is there a way to burn the Originals folder only?
    thanks,
    Melissa

    How does one "right-click" on a Mac?
    How does one "duplicate"? ("command C"?).
    Assuming that I can then find this copy, how do I split into smaller folders? (Highlight a portion of library and then create a smaller folder?- or is there another way?). Does this allow me to split using my Events categories and keep that structure in the smaller folders on the DVDs?
    I have backed-up everything including iPhoto onto 2 different types of external drives (a third drive - a LaCie has me stumped) and am now trying to figure out how to backup iPhoto onto DVDs. The instructions I have found say to go to Finder; create a Burn Folder; then Burn. This creates a file that can be read by both Macs and PCs. I have 66 GB of photos so I need to break up iPhoto into smaller chunks for burning to DVDs - therefore, your post is of interest to me.
    Sorry for the simple questions but after nearly 3 years using a MacBook, I am still trying to figure out the "cleverness" in its operation.

  • Can't burn to a DVD folder or DVD

    I Premiere elements 4, yesterday I was able to burn a DVD folder but not a dvd of a video which was 5 minutes long. It took awhile because premiere kept giving me an error like "Adobe premiere elements has encountered a problem and needs to close". A couple hours later I wanted to burn another video I made to a dvd folder which is 23 minutes long, but I encountered the same problem: "Adobe premiere elements has encountered a problem and needs to close". I have been trying for two days to burn a DVD folder an/or a dvd of this video. And I tried http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402373 , accept re-installing premiere.
    I have windows xp home edition sp2(desktop computer)
    my hard drives are partion: C: 33GB/10GB, D: 40GB, E: 35GB
    my quicktime is updated
    And all of the video files are in dv-avi

    One likely problem is all that partitioning of your hard drive.
    With DV editing requiring huge chunks of free, defragmented hard drive space (I recommend never editing on a drive with less than 50 gigs of free space) cutting your drive into 30 or 40 gig areas would seem counter productive.
    Why is your drive partitioned, moon? And how many drives are we looking at?
    Remember, your C drive needs a good 20-30 gigs of free space just to allow for operating system paging. If you're editing to a second drive, you should allow 50 gigs of free space for every hour of video you're editing, and never less than 20.
    I have a 160 gig C drive with about 50 gigs free and I edit my video to a 500 gig drive with only a fraction of it in use.
    What are the rest of your computer specs? How fast is your processor and how much RAM do you have? With such a small hard drive, it could be that you're just way too underpowered for video editing.

  • Backing Up Home Folder on DVD-R?

    I was told this was an easy way to back up the critical folders on my hard drive. I've fiddled around for 3/4 hour with iDVD 4.01 trying to do this and no joy. No help files or FAQ's shed light on what should be a pretty simple process, right? Any advice?

    I took a deep breath and trashed the Burn Folder, then emptied the trash. Then I verified that the contents of my home directory are still on my hard drive. I figured that if I had lost my original home directory by trashing the Burn Folder, I could always back it up from the newly-burned DVD-R. So this little experiment indicates that one can trash a Burn Folder after burning it and not lose the original data that was placed (copied?) into the Burn Folder. But this was a pretty scary way to verify a process that should be better documented, eh?! I took the liberty of suggesting this on the original Apple document you were kind enough to reference. Thanks!

  • Burning to folder and then to dvd

    Hello,
    I am getting into a complete mess trying to burn my project in PE7 to a folder ( can't even see "burn to folder" option!) I need to comlpete this project today so can u PLEASE give me the steps I need to take. I did look in forums, but still none the wiser. I assume it is the Video .ts files that i then burn to dvd from the folder.
    Help much appreciated.

    Hunt,
    Bottom line: I believe that the Bitrate 8.0 vs 5.45 or 7.8 or other is a non issue for Premiere Elements 7 Burn to Disc or Folder. I respect the great work of Robert Johnston, but question generalizations from the work that others have made.
    I have not found the original Robert Johnston/Premiere Elements 3/Bitrate 8.0 vs 5.45 link with the reported proof for Premiere Elements 3, but did find the recent follow up chat on that subject in the following March, 2009 link
    http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4977
    Based on what I read there and my actual studies on the issue with Burn to Folder (with Nero to Burn VIDEO_TS Folder to DVD) as well as Burn to Disc (Sonic within Premiere Elements 7), I am left to recommend the following if you are using Premiere Elements 7 and want to put your Timeline on a DVD disc in the DVD-VIDEO format:
    In Share/Disc/Disc or Share or Disc/Burn to Folder
    Work with “Fit Contents To Available Space” checked
    If the Bitrate is less than 8 Mbps because the program is laboring to fit your Timeline on the disc, stop and consider the consequences of
    a. Bitrate lowering vs Quality, judging each case on it own merits, AND
    b. the fact that you may not have enough resources to complete the burn.
    The only time I ever leave “Fit Contents To Available Space” unchecked, is if and when I get a Data Rate Error message. The major fix for that is to leave the “Fit Content to Disc” unchecked and then manually lower the Bitrate gradually to a point where the Data Rate Error message just disappears.
    From Robert Johnson’s 2009 fuzzy recollections of the details of his original work done years ago in Premiere Elements 3 to the more recent chat on the subject, I would question generalizations made from the chat and applied to other situations. Robert Johnson does say in the 2009 link that in Premiere Elements 7 he does not see the quality vs bitrate issues that he reported in Premiere Elements 3. There are too many questions to be asked
    a. what was video source and format and duration…is he altering the bitrate on a Timeline whose content exceeds the available space of the disc or one whose content is already within the available space of the disc
    b. if you are opting for burn to folder, how if at all are the burn software and/or DVD disc brand and type impacting the quality of the result
    c. what does this all have to do with the way Adobe has programmed this Bitrate factor with and without “Fit Contents To Available Space” checked.

  • From EncoreCS3 DVD-9 VIDEO_TS folder to replication house via DDP (mastering steps in GEAR etc.)

    Ok, the "solution" or steps I'm trying to provide here is not complete, just the way I see it now. We will do it this way as we want to deliver the DVD-9 dual layer DDP master to the replication house. The intention is that this should be corrected or fullfilled in order so that in the end we have a proper guide for everyone here, so people, read this, and share you info and if there is anything to be corrected or tips for making things work better.
    Here we go:
    Let's assume we have created successfully a VIDEO_TS folder from Encore CS3, meaning we have not set a layer break yet, but otherwise we have a working product.
    STEP 1. SET THE LAYER BREAK IN GEAR Mastering Edition, guide http://www.gearsoftware.com/howtoguides/dvdvideobreakpoint.cfm
    Possible problems: non-seamless cells don't exist in the layer break window
    Possible solution: Use PGCEdit to change the cell type from seamless to non-seamless. This happens by opening the VIDEO_TS folder with PGCEdit and then double clicking on the VTS which holds the layer break point "window" (the VTS you chose in GEAR). Then you deselect the seamless joint checkbox in the cell (making it non-seamsless) you want to use as the layer break. Then you press OK and save the DVD. After that you create a new project in GEAR, do the layerbreak calculations based on the newly changed VIDEO_TS (with the non-seamless cell) and re-open the selected VTS_xx_0.IFO now in IFOEdit where you can now find the a proper non-seamless cell address for the layer break. Now you should be able to finish setting the non-seamless layer break in GEAR.
    Question: Do we have to and do we need to have the When saving, leave at least 32K of space between IFO and BUP" from the Options to be on when we do this in seamless joint change and save the dvd in PGCedit?
    STEP 2. CREATE DDP IMAGE FROM THE PROJECT, guide: http://www.gearsoftware.com/howtoguides/dvdvideotoddp.cfm
    STEP 3. TEST THE DDP IMAGE BY BURNING IT ON DVD-R DVD-9
    First you need to restore the DDP Image you just created, guide http://www.gearsoftware.com/howtoguides/restoreddpimage.cfm
    Burn the restored VIDEO_TS folder to DVD-9 with GEAR, guide
    http://www.gearsoftware.com/howtoguides/burndvdmovies.cfm
    STEP 4. SEE HOW THE PRODUCT LOOKS LIKE WITH THE LAYER BREAK SET
    -If the product looks good and the layer break makes you satisfied, deliver the DDP image to replication factory for replication.
    .............Ok people, share your thoughts if something is wrong or if you got points to remember, answers to the questions given, suggest changes, or even better, write here a better version of this guide? The aim would be in the end having a guide which says all the required things in order to achieve a successfull DVD-9 project.

    Neil, once again, thanks a lot.
    >The seamless/non-seamless question is a bit of a non-issue unless you are using multiple camera angles, as this is all it refers to. Unless you have multiple angles, ignore this completely.
    In Multiple Angles (unsupported in Encore anyway) Seamless means there is no pause in playback when switching between angles. That is all.
    So, I really thought the seamless/non-seamless would have affect on the actually layer switching when playing the DVD, so that it might affect the slight layer switch pause time. It's just that the gear guide says that you need to find a non-seamless break in the IFOedit, and that's it, so I guess it is a bit missleading there in that GEAR guide. But, I'm glad you cleared this out that this only has to do something with the multiangle views.
    >The 32kb of space is a "must-tick" option, otherwise you stand a high chance of having the master rejected by the factory. Nero is a bugger for running these 2 files (Video_TS.IFO & Video_TS.BUP) into what the player will see as one file.
    Ok, so unless you use PGCEdit, this should be already ok in your project, right? But if you use PGCEdit for something like changing the seamless joint for multiple angles to your VIDEO_TS folder, this selection should be always on in PGCEdit.
    >One gotcha though - early versions of the GEAR Spreadsheet for calculating the layer break seem to give the VTS to use the start sector from as VTS_xx_0.VOB - this is wrong.
    Yeah, luckily this seems to be fixed now in the GEAR guide calculator.
    Another way I've found that is useful what comes to the selecting the layer break from the layer break "window" for your project is this:
    In order to know exactly where the cell starts in your video, you can use IMGBurn to preview the cells, so that you can choose the most suitable cell from the "layer break window". This means following the SET THE LAYER BREAK IN GEAR Mastering Edition guide to the point where you have found out the "layer break window". Then when going to the IFOedit you can see the cells that fall in to this window. Mark them down in your notepad and open the VIDEO_TS in IMGBurn, set the BUILD mode, choose to burn the VIDEO_TS folder and proceed the workflow ahead until you get to the set the layer break window. In this window you can preview the cells of the project, being able to see the videos of the cells. Go through the cells you marked in the IFOedit and find the cell that starts in the least disturbing place where the possible pause might occur during the moment when your dvd player changes the layer. When you've chose your cell, cancel the process and continue what you were doing in the GEAR layer break guide.
    If there are any other methods for this test purpose, or if there is something I'm missing, please share?
    Question about choosing the layer break cell: Is it the fact that no matter how you have bitcalculated your project size when building it in Encore, the layer break window that the GEAR spreadsheet provides you, doesn't take this into account at all? Meaning, if you choose the biggest cell number from the layer break window to be the layer break cell, it will go over the 4% overhead at the outer layer edge? If this is the case, you shouldn't use the last cells from the layer break window at all? And should we always try to choose the cell with the smallest number no matter what (in order to make the layer break as far from the layer's outer edge)?

  • How can I turn a Video TS folder into a video DVD?

    My superdrive can burn a dual-layer DVD, and I understand iDVD can handle it.
    (My Video TS folder is too large to fit on an ordinary DVD.)
    But I can't figure out how to burn the Video TS onto the DVD +R DL so that I end up with a DVD that can be played in a DVD player, on TV.
    I don't find any info in Help or in the forums, using relevant key words.
    I have an older version of Toast that can handle dual layer, but got drive errors when trying to do it with Toast.
    Any hints, advice or direction to any written help would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I only have a Video TS folder, no DVD. If it is possible for Video TS folders to be copy protected, then it's possible that could be the problem. Is there an easy way to find out? No error message referenced any protections.
    I can play the Video TS folder with DVD Player on the Mac, but I suppose that would be possible whether or not the folder is copy protected.
    I'm cleaning up a drive I "inherited," so I could live without this "virtual DVD" if it can't be transferred to a physical DVD disk. But it would be nice to know what's going wrong.
    Do you understand the error messages, and do you think it means the folder is copy protected?
    ========
    Wait a sec... I suppose one solution would be to copy the folder onto a dual layer data DVD (the folder is 6.3 gigs), and then it could still be played on the computer using DVD Player, it just couldn't be played in a normal DVD player for watching on TV (right?). That would clear up the space on the drive.
    But alas, even that didn't work. I tried using the Finder to burn a copy of the folder to a dual layer DVD (as just a data DVD) and got this error: "Burning the disc failed because an unexpected error occurred. (Error code 0x8002006E)"
    This makes me think there's something going on besides possible copy protection... I AM able to make a copy of the folder right on the same hard drive (just tested it), so if some kind of copy protection existed, surely it would have prevented that. Since I'm able to copy it to the same drive, but not to a dual layer DVD, it must be a problem not of copy protection but somehow related to using the DVD +R DL (which my computer says my superdrive can handle). Think?

  • When burning a folder of photos to DVD, photos on  dvd are all pixellated

    I use a Nikon D50. Images look great in iphoto, or when printed. But when I burn a folder to dvd for sharing with others, the photos on the dvd are mostly pixellated, some are fuzzy, almost like out of focus. What's going on? Help!
    17" flat screen imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1 GB ram

    You're looking at the thumbnails. When you burn from inside iPhoto, you're actually creating a miniature library. It's intended for creating a disc that will be recognized by iPhoto in another Mac computer. Each photo is represented by the original "out of the camera" version and the latest modified version (if any modifications were made). Finally, there is a thumbnail of each photo (used by iPhoto) and that's apparently what you were viewing.
    If you merely wish to distribute photos to others (including your favorite photofinisher), export the photos to a temporary folder on the desktop. Then quit iPhoto and do a normal (Finder) burn. When finished you can trash the temp folder.

  • DVD@ccess folder copy

    Hiya - does anyone know if there's a way to PREVENT DVDSP copying the DVDccess folder during a build? I'd rather place the DVD@ccess Windows installer in a folder with other items, which I can in the DVD-ROM content but a redundant DVDccess folder is created no matter what. I can use other tools (like mkisofs) to get rid of it from a disk image, but this is a DVD-9 project and I need to make layered DDP2.1 files for replication, which means the build and format steps need to happen within DVDSP.
    I've also trawled through the various project xmls like ObjectDatB (plutil is my friend) but there seems to be no switchable option to prevent inclusion of this folder once DVD@ccess links are in place.
    Ideas? Thanks in advance.

    DVD@ccess looked promising but it's a non-starter. The technology was unreliable when it was new and I do not believe it has seen neither improvement nor revision. I have used it successfully only once back in DVDSPv2 and that was for a Mac-only release.
    Can you accomplish your goals with any other technology? Does Adobe Encore offer you any better solution for a Windows client (never used it myself)?
    sorry not to have ay better advice for you other than to forget DVD@ccess. Please come back and let us know if you find a workable solution; it will help others in similar situations.

  • Unable to burn an HD DVD in HD.264 format

    When I attempt to burn a DVD with an H.264 10.3Mbps file using DVD Studio Pro I get the following message:  "VIDEO_TS folder found in Build Location ....The Build Location folder contains a VIDEO_TS folder(standard DVD content).  You must remove the VIDEO_TS folder from the Build Location in order to proceed with Build/Format of a HD DVD project."  The H.264 file includes both video and audio, and is a Quicktime movie.  If this doesn't work, is there an HD selection in compressor that will allow a 1080i video suitable for DVD?  I'm unable to find a VIDEO_TS folder linked to this video anywhere on my hard drive.

    Well, you first need to know that an HD DVD will only play on one of three things:  1) A Mac with a Superdrive.  2) A Toshiba HD DVD player...but those have been discontinued as they lost the battle to BluRay.  3) An XBOX 360. 
    It won't play on regular DVD players...nor BluRay players.  If you want a DVD to play on a regular DVD player, you need to use the DVD BEST QUALITY presets...and know that it'll be standard definition, not high definition.  If you want BluRay...you need to get BluRay authoring software, and a BluRay burner.
    You can use Compressor to author a BluRay playable disc...it just needs to be under 30-40 min...
