Does DVD Player have a file like the cd info.cidb file?

Hi,
Is there a file like the cd info.cidb file for DVDs? There are apps that use that for CD cataloging. I am wondering if there is an app that will keep track of DVDs as well, using that sort of file, if it exists.
Many thanks.
John L

Well, thanks but that doesn't answer my question. There are plenty of apps that catalog discs. Is there a file like the cd db file? (What is its name and where is it?) Does your app use it?
Cheers,
John L

When playing a home video DVD using DVD Player I tried to use the "Controls, Use current frame as jacket picture" facility to create a printable image but with no success. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

When playing a home video DVD (created on my Panasonic DVD/Hard Disc recorder) using the Mac DVD Player, I tried to use the "Controls, Use current frame as jacket picture" facility to create a printable image but with no success. I assume that any file created by this action would be stored somewhere in a common format but cannot find any such file. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Hi Sinious,
Interesting to know about 10.8 and Flash. I'll hold off upgrading until they work together. Currently using 10.6.8 at home and same on the Universtity's computers.
Haven't verified on Windows but shall do later in the week if I can get access to a Windows machine.
Both the Flash player and the Projector come up not full screen, and if I leave it that way then things work OK as long as I don't make the video full screen (using the full screen button on the skin).
However if I make the swf or projector full-screen (by using CMD-F or the menu option) then when I click on the menu item to take me to the page with the video on it, instead of a page with a smallish video and back button I get a black screen with no obvious controls. If I then press Escape I get my normal screen back and I am in the page that should have the video but there is not video and the back button does not work. So something wierd is going on here.
If I make a file without any videos with a similar navigation structure everyting works ok except that when I go full screen I lose the finger cursor when I roll over my buttons (which is also wierd).

Does DVD player support PAL and foreign dvd's?

I am debating on whether or not to purchase a Dvd on ebay because it is in PAL format and I don't know what that means. Will my regular U.S. dvd player be able to play the movie? And will the dvd player application on this computer (i have dvd player version 4.0)?
Thank You

Thanks David,
So, England uses PAL too. Now I know. Where is England anyway? Isn't that an American colony? Or is it an island just north of Australia? - Just playing with ya David We won't talk about the cricket either!
Steven,
You have five chances of changing the region settings on your Mac drive. After that it is locked at that region setting forever. As I said before, America uses NTSC, so your locally bought DVDs will not play on that player unless it supports NTSC playback. If it is region free then there is no issue with regions, but it must have NTSC playback or it is useless in the states.

Makes it sound like the charging port is damaged or loose.

Yes of course its Photoshop. Cut the person out copy to clipboard paste onto toe brick wall document and texture the layer using a displacement map for the brick wall. Look for Photoshop tutorials on using a displacement map.

"Vaguely like" is the best we can hope for and a minor miracle in itself. PDF was never meant to be converted.

Nikos,
When using grouped columns you should change the <mx:columns> to <mx:groupedColumns>, I ran this example in a sandbox app and it works fine.
EXAMPLE:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="deals" displayItemsExpanded="true" dataProvider="{flatData}" width="100%" height="373"
        sortExpertMode="true" variableRowHeight="true" headerStyleName="smallHeader" editable="false" fontWeight="normal">
       <mx:groupedColumns>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="75">
            </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup headerText="Client side">
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="customer" headerText="Mon Ref" width="60" editable="true" wordWrap="true" showDataTips="true" textAlign="center"/>
                <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="product" headerText="MC Pr" textAlign="center" wordWrap="true" width="70">
                </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn>

Three issues here. The pre-pending is useless when selecting songs to play, plus it.takes up much of the admittedly limited space in my on-screen menu. Since it doesn't help me select a song to play, it simply prevents more relevant info from being displayed in that area. However, there is a second area on the menu that is designed to list title, artist and album but those fields are blank - despite I-tunes inclusion of the info in the xferred files.
JCP,
Regarding the tags, on an MP3 CD iTunes simply burns whatever is embedded in the MP3 file. From your description, it sounds like the Onkyo is seeing the filenames but not the tags, which does seem strange. You may want to try the question in an Onkyo forum.
If you don't need the pre-pended serial number, and don't care about the sequence, you can burn from iTunes as a data CD instead of an MP3 CD.

Does Front Row DVD player have any options and preferences?

Are there any preference options for watching DVD's in Front Row?
I have been watching DVD's on my Mac through the DVD Player which has lots of useful options like Zoom and De-Interlace etc. But DVD player leaves the mouse pointer on screen and Front Row seems to be a better way to watch films.
My problem with Front Row is when I play a DVD like West Wing it needs to be zoomed to fill my 17inch screen and it needs to be played De-Interlaced. I can't find any way to access options in Front Row DVD player to do this. With no mouse pointer I can't get a drop down menu so is there a short cut key that would give me some options?
Thanks
Phil Carr

Welcome to the forums!
But DVD player leaves the mouse pointer on screen
Not if you drag it to the bottom of the screen.
Front Row seems to be a better way to watch films.
Debatable for the reasons you mention!
I much prefer VLC to DVD Player:
You should definitely consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

The DVD function of 2007 MacBook Pro (10.7.5) no longer works. Apple does repair, but referred to buy an external DVD player. Purchased two, including the Apple, neither work on my model. Trying to burn DVD of 8MM video. Any suggestions?

I am trying to turn my Sony 8mm Handicam video into DVD through my MACBOOK PRO. Unfortunately my DVD function no longer works. Apple won't repair, no longer carries the parts. Referred to Apple repair shop. Gentleman there said it cost the same to purchase an external DVD player as repair the MACBOOK. So far, I have purchased two, including Apple's. Neither works with my MACBOOK. Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi rgneil:
Yeah, keeping an older machine running has it's challenges.
Have you tried one of the DVD burners from Other World Computing? Their sales support can probably guide you to one that should work. The OWC burner that I use with my 2009 17-inch MacBook Pro has FireWire and USB2 connectors.
Are you using iMovie/iDVD or Final Cut Pro/DVD Studio Pro? And, do you have Roxio Toast?
If all else fails, you could try a stand alone DVD-Recorder. You'd want to pick a model that supports external video input. I have a LiteON DVD-Recorder that I patch VHS, Regular8 and Hi8 decks to now and again just to get stuff off tape to DVD-R.
Report back on what works (or continues to not work) for you.
Burn on!

Script to determine how a DVD player is configured and enable the Stream

Hi
Does anyone know how to use scripts to detect the configuration of a DVD Player (I am interested in aspect ratio settings) and then using another script, choose the appropriate subtitle stream to use for that player?
Cheers
Barry

Hi...Thanks I figured it out... the script is as follows if you want to know and is set as the first play...
1 mov GPRM 7, 512
2 mov GPRM 6, 3072
3 Goto 5 if (GPRM 7 = SPRM 14)
4 Goto 7 if (GPRM 6 = SPRM 14)
5 Set System Stream St(Subtitle Stream 1)(On)
6 Jump Intro
7 Set System Stream St(Subtitle Stream 2)(On)
7 Jump Intro
We are making Education DVDs that go with a book... each exercise is a separate video clip which could be used in more than one book, at different stages. We need to apply an exercise number over the video but do not want to do it in FCP as this would mean having many outputs for one file. We are creating a library of exercises so there fore we place a graphic in FCP for the text to sit on. The most efficient way to add the exercise number is in DVDSP using subtitles. But because of the way DVDSP handles subtitles for wide-screen letterboxed video there is a difference to the way a DVD Player displays the subtitle if the DVD Player is set to 16:9 Wide Screen compared to 4:3 letterbox... if we do not do this then if the text is in the correct place for 16:9 widescreen DVD settings it will be in the wrong place for a 4:3 letterboxed DVD Player...
I hope that makes sense... anyway, thanks for your help. I seem to have solved the issue with your help.
Much appreciated..
Barry

How do I connect a DVD Player or game console to the X-Fi Platin

Perhaps the answer is simpler than I think, that's why I didn't find the answer anywhere. Sorry if it's a stupid question. So, how do I connect my DVD Player, PlayStation 2 and Gamecube to the X-Fi Platinum. I use optical cables for the first two and analog stereo cables (Red and White) for the Gamecube. I plug them in, but I can't get any sound out. What do I do? Thanks in advance.

months later and I still can not get the sound from the tv to sync with the sound from the pc over the digital link.
edit to say I just saw this post
"The Audigy features BUILT IN decoding, you are almost talking like it is being done through software, this is a built in hardware function of the audigy"
It is being done in software on the host CPU. No Creative soundcard has hardware based decoding. If you don't believe me try it yourself. Check the CPU utilisation in SPDIF mode and DVD playback software decoding mode. There won't be any difference in CPU utilisation between the two modes. In fact on my machine with the X-Fi doing the decoding the CPU utilisation is higher than the nVidia audio decoder.
no there's something else I didn't check before buying. there goes blind faith in a company you have used for over 8 years.
The way that the x-fi is being marketed is very aggresi've. I will know not to trust anything this company say on their box, especially until I have read second and third opinions online. Vreati've, you have just lost this customer. Next year I will buy a card that just does what I need and not one that looks like something I should have and at a ridiculous price for a sound card that doesn't actually do hardware decoing that a ?50 piece of plastic can do.
