DVD - no audio, 2 chapters blank

I am having trouble creating a DVD from a 80 minute video with five chapters edited on Final Cut Express. I have crated many others without trouble. The first time, about a minute into chapter 4, the video broke up, then froze, but audio continued. Chapter 5 was fine. I reexamined the original video, downloaded a minute of it where the breakup occurred, and made a test DVD. It was fine. I reedited the chapter 4 with freshly downloaded video. Previewed on IDVD, no problem. Created a new DVD. There is no audio on any of it and Chapters 4 and 5 are blank. There were no error messages. What did I do wrong?

Welcome to the forums, Poppa.
It is possible that the original problem wasn´t anything other than errors when burning the DVD. These can occur from DVD media problems (I like Sony, but Verbatim is highly recommended), and they also can occur because your burning speed is too high (burn a disk image, and then use Roxio Toast or Apple´s Disk Utility to slow the burn speed to 1x or 2x).

  • MacBook Pro running Leopard has suddenly thinks audio CDs are blank.  Also not recognized in Itunes.

    MacBook Pro running Leopard has suddenly thinks audio CDs are blank.  Also not recognized in Itunes.  What should I do to determine whether it's a hardware or software problem? Or is there something unusual about these CDs?

    I have the exact same issue.DVD's work perfectly, but audio cd's have stopped working.  I think it's pretty recent, but can't confirm it because i don't use audio cd's daily. So I think it might be software related instead of hardware related. I Have a Macbook pro 15" mid 2009 running the latest OSX release.

  • MacBook DVD drive no longer recognizing blank DVDs

    I thought I'd do some DVD archives of photos (using a Burn folder) and popped in a blank DVD (from a stack of blank DVDs that I've been using for a while).
    Lo and behold this message popped up:
    "The disc can’t be used because the disc drive is not supported (error code 0x80020025)"
    I've done burning without problems on 10.5.x and this is the first time I've tried since upgrading to 10.6.
    It seems to be a relatively common problem with no clear fix?

  • HT5287 If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?

    If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?
    Or am I missing the bigger picture?

    As long as you have a Superdrive or an external burner/drive, burning, watching, installing, etc. from CD or DVD will work just fine. And so will sharing.

  • Can't see video on dvd only audio

    I do not get video when I play my dvd only audio.  I played this exact dvd yesterday and it was fine.  I also played it on my t.v. and it played fine.  Any ideas?

    Hi
    Brand of DVD used - matters
    Type of DVD - also matters - DVD-R or DVD+R or DVD+/-RW ?
    BURN SPEED - Matters GREATLY - Best IS NOT BEST - I never go faster than x4 - most often use x2
    So please tell - What You used - as this matters to a great extent.

  • Play DVD with audio sound via Airport Express speakers

    Is it possible to play my DVD with audio sound via my Airport Express speakers?
    I can play music with iTunes trough these speakers, it would be nice if I can hear my DVDs aswell.
    iMac intel core duo   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Not using Front Row.
    The real issue here is that audio and video stream at different speeds and it is hard to maintain sync. You know how when you hit play within iTunes it takes a while for the song to start through the speakers? It's the same with the DVD. So you'd need to work an offset into the audio when playing a DVD and it's not an exact science.
    You can download VLC player and mess around with the offset, then you'll also need a program like Airfoil to be able to force audio through the airport express.
    Good luck!

  • I created in iMovie, and extracted audio from one of the clips to use in the title sequence.  All is well, export to iDVD and it plays OK, but when I burn the DVD the audio for the titles does not play. Any suggestions?

  • Since I've updated to iOS 6 I am unable to use the next/back buttons from Headphone for audio book chapters.

    Since I've updated from iOS 5 to iOS 6 I am unable to use the next/back buttons from Headphone for audio book chapters.
    This is working fine for albums but are broken for audio books.
    The back button refers always to the first chapter of the audio book (very annoying if you are in the middle of an audio book) and the nex button goes one level higher back to the selection of the audio book itself.
    In iOS 5.0 it was still possible to navigate throught the audio book chapters using these buttons.
    This still happens in iOS 6.1.
    Is this a known bug?
    Does any solution exist?
    Thx,
    Oliver

    To gdgmacguy your a f****** idiot for one I'm having the same problem as pennymar. And you tell me to quit whinning. You got more problems then the iOS 6 you did not answer my question nor the other 13 or whatever you replied to within a 30 min time frame. You must got nothing better to do then to harass people and to pretend you know something about apple products. Which you don't from what I've read the other advices you should have gave to other people. But you didn't you replied a question back to the people asking a question. So if your not gonna use these community forums the right way don't use them at all.

  • Premiere Pro CC Crashing when Scrolling Through Sequence in Timeline - Audio Waveform Goes Blank First

    Just started today, won't stop crashing now after a minute or two, and always does it when I scroll through the timeline of a sequence.  The audio waveform goes blank first.

  • Best quality conversion for DVD with audio?

    This has to be easier than it seems. I have an hour long video I want to compress with the best resolution for DVD, but Compressor help tells me I "must convert the video into MPEG-2 (SD and HD projects)," but this is video only.
    I just want to compress this 60GB video losing as little quality as possible and throw it on a DVD with audio, but I just can't make sense of Compressor to find the best way to do this.
    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for the response. I did try this, save for the Create DVD Job Action, but it just creates one audio and one video file. I'm trying the Create DVD job action now, so hopefully that will work.
    Here is a screenshot of my batch. Does this look correct?
    Thanks again.

  • Loading off DVD's audio file of last project Plays

    I load files off DVD from my church recorder, 1 st project goes great !! Next project off next DVD won't accept new audio plays audio form last closed project    Need Ideas Please!!!!!!!!!!

    When new audio material is imported into Premiere it converts the audio to 32bit and saves the new audio file in the Media cache. This new file is then used when editing. What I expect is happening in your case is that the 2nd dvd has the same file names as the first, Premiere thinks the audio is the same so does not redo the conversion to 32bit. To get round this problem delete all the .pek and .cfa files in your Media Cache Files folder. You can find the location of this file by looking under Edit-Preferences-Media in Premiere. I'm on a PC but there will be something similar for a Mac. When you then import your second dvd the audio should be reconformed.

  • Burned DVD's show up as blank

    Hello All,
    I have a very strange problem that I've spent hours trying to figure out now, and haven't made any progress on. Yesterday, I used 'Burn' to burn several data dvd's on an iMac. Each burn completely successfully, and was confirmed good by checking in another iMac. You can also tell the dvd's are burnt by looking at the back of them. I believe they were burnt using the HFS+ filesystem.
    Today, I tried using them on my MacBook Pro running OS 10.4.11. When I insert them, they show up as Blank DVD's and are mounted as such. Using the Disk Utility to examine the disk, I recieved this information:
    ===========
    Name : HL-DT-ST DVDRW GWA4080M
    Type : Disk
    Disk Identifier : disk1
    Media Name : HL-DT-ST DVDRW GWA4080M Media
    Media Type : DVDROM
    Connection Bus : ATA
    Connection Type : Internal
    Connection ID : Device 0
    Device Tree : /PCI0@0/PATA@1F,1/PRID@0/@0:0
    Locked : Yes
    Writable : No
    Ejectable : Yes
    Mac OS 9 Drivers Installed : No
    DVDROM : Yes

    Location : Internal
    Total Capacity : 0 Bytes
    S.M.A.R.T. Status : Not Supported
    Disk Number : 1
    Partition Number : 0
    ==================
    That looks right, except for the 'Optical Media Type' which should be DVD+R, though I may be misinterpreting what that is talking about.
    Since the DVD's are showing up as blank, I tried burning something to them. They wouldn't burn.
    I did get brief access to another iMac, and on that machine, one of the DVD's showed up perfectly. I'm at a loss as to what is happening here. Any ideas?
    The drive will read other burned or pressed dvd's as well as cd's.
    I'm nearly at my wits end here, because I really need this to work. I've been scouring google like a madman and haven't found any answers. It really gets me that the dvd's work in the iMac's, but not one this drive. This drive works well otherwise. This is one of the oddest computer problems I've encountered.

    I'm having the same problem, I can read data cd's but not data DVD's. Data DVD's I've burned after 3 minutes just get ejected, copied installation DVDs just get recognised as Blank DVD's. I've also tried the same DVDs when I boot my Macbook up in windows only, they also get spat out. I have an external DVD drive and the DVD's work fine in that, both in the Mac OS and the windows OS. Which would leave me to believe theres an obvious issue with the;
    HL-DT-ST DVDRW GSA-S10N:
    Model: HL-DT-ST DVDRW GSA-S10N

    The Drive reads retail DVD Films ok and thats it?.. any ideas??

  • DVD Player audio track plays slower than Video and at transposed pitch

    I have a strange problem with DVD player. I have an opera DVD (not a commercial one - it is from a personal performance and is on a DVD-R disk)) which I put in my Mac Book Pro (OSX 10.5.6)and DVD Player played it fine. I wanted to try to convert the info on the DVD to extract a short section of the DVD. I went to Hand Brake and tried that, it told me I needed to install VLC which I did, Hand Brake then recoded the Files. Now when I insert the DVD though DVD Player starts automatically but plays the DVD audio at a slower speed and transposed lower. I have no idea why this is! Needless to say I do not want it playing slower. VLC also did not work very well with the audio so I have uninstalled the VLC program as it played the VOB files but the sound track was very wonky with the pitch shifting all over the place. How do I return to having DVD Player working properly?

    okay, I can help you a little bit. your dvd player (standalone) plays mpeg-2, I think, so
    in order for a disk to work in it, both the audio and video have to be combined into a whole package, which i think is video_ts.Using Toast, choose video, then dvd-video then drag n' drop, and it may work. As far as  i know, disk utility cannot make video dvd's, but  I may be wrong, and you may be right. I used iDVD, but there are probably other programs that may do as good a job of burning. Oh, and this is most important: Some blanks will work ok, and others won't. Verbatim, maxell ( I think) and Taiyo Yuden will work fine. the other ones are a gamble. I think what it's supposed to do is called muxing. I'm sure someone will correct me on this. You could try using "Burn" which is relatively cheap or Handbrake and see if that will do what you want to do. not that it's super important, but the amount of Ram in your machine is helpful too
    anyways, good luck

  • Spliting DVD in to two chapters

    Hi all
    I have just done my first iDVD prodjet, which was my daughters prom. I wanted to make a DVD of about 107 digital photos. All went well in doing the design and burning the DVD. Problems started when we noticed an error in some spellings. I changed the error and re-burnt the DVD - DVD+RW, 4.7GB DVD - no problem at that point, either playing via a TV, Windows Laptop or my iMac. Started to go all wrong when I had to re-burn the DVD again, due to another spelling error. This time when we went to view it, it had split the images in to 2 chapters. The first has 99 images in it and the second chapter has the other 8 images.
    What has gone wrong. The only change I have made in the settings is that the audio fades out at the end of the DVD.
    Any help will do...........

    Hi Sue
    I tryed that.....but its still the same. What I should have said in my first post is that I have two Titles. Title One is split into 99 Chapters and Title Two is split into 6 Chapters.
    When played via a DVD player & TV it gets to Title 1/ Chapter 99 then hickup's into Title 2 / Chapter 1. It's the same when played on my iMac. When played via Windows Media Player v10 it halts at Title 1/ Chapter 99
    So is it something I have to put up with or am I missing something......
