Dvd not burning properly, not recognized by DVD Player

I have not burned video DVD's for several months until this week when I find that disks burned from disk images created by IDVD no longer burn properly. They are not recognized by Apple DVD player or on two different commercial players that I have.  The disk images can be played with Apple DVD player, but once burned to disk, I get a message Disk not Supported.  I have tried burning disks from 3 reputable brands with the same results.  I just updated to OS X 10.8.5.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Another thing to check is your bitRates and whether you encoded the audio to A.Pack/Dolby. I have often seen machines play once or twice then start having playback issues or not play. It can be related to the encode rates (and it may not behave across different machines the same way, in other words it will continue to play fine on some players and not another)

  • DVD/RW Burner does not Ej

    "Eject CD at conclusion of Burning" feature in Creative Media Source has stopped functioning all of sudden. File burning and Table Writing Phase are completed, yet the CD does not eject as it did before. I must push de DVD/RW Dri've eject button to get the CD out ofthe Dri've. This is followed by my PC freezing. However, the CD is perfectly burnt. When I play the CD in the DVD?RW Player all tracks sound ok. Any ideas?
    Joseito

    I have a dv2715 laptop with a MAT**bleep**A DVD-RAM UJ-H861H ATA Device. It doesn't recognize any blank dvd+/-r. dvd-rw, nor read any dvd with information already saved to it but recognize cd-rw and will play dvd movies. It also recognizes all cd formats both blank and saved info. I have done a system restore and it did recognize a dvd immediately after, but not anymore. I also have downloaded, uninstalled and installed drivers still with no success and I have autoplay on.
    What is the problem and how can I resolve?

  • Not burning properly

    Hello, can anyone help me please? I have checked that my movies play before I burn them. Everything is good. When I have burned the DVD, the playback has not sound on two of the movies. There is a quick 1 seconds worth of the audio and then its gone. Is it iDVD or my drive?
    Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Have you recently recorded any DVD's successfully? If so and the audio was as expected then it's not likely a hardware issue. Might be a setting/s you overlooked.
    Tell us more about this clip with lost audio. Is it 12 bit or 16 bit? Have you tried extracting the audio from this clip to see if that helps or not? Sometimes extracting the audio and then sharing the iMovie back out to Minidv helps (in that you can then bring it back into iMovie =>iDvd and it will work as expected).
    Try it.

  • CDs not burning properly

    Frequently, when I burn a CD, some of the tracks will have a very scratchy sound and sometimes will even skip. This usually happens on tracks near the end of the disc. I have observed this to happen with both CD-RWs and CD-Rs, and it happened on my old Windows 2000 system as well as my new Windows XP system.
    If anyone knows what I can do to fix this, I would appreciate it.

    Hi
    Four thoughts
    • Brand and type of DVD/CD Media
    • Burn Speed ?
    • Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
    • Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
    Brand and type of DVD/CD Media: MATTERS
    - Memorex, NoName and other Cheap brands - most probably works for other things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO.
    I only use Verbatim
    - DVD-RW - usually do not work OK but with various kinds of problems. DVD+R is a more modern sort and use to give problems on older DVD-players
    I only use DVD-R
    Burn Speed (in iDVD or alike): Matters
    • Best or Max - is not best
    I set it down to x2 or x4 Max
    Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
    I use one WITHOUT Liquid but with brushes from time to time
    Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
    - Due to that Mac OS X - is UNIX - it behaves likewise. It needs lot's of space on Boot / Start-Up Hard Disk for it's and the applications temp files.
    I never go less than 25GB free space - If HD-Video material is used then 4-5 times more is a good thing.

  • IDVD NOT BURNING, IDVD NOT BURNING

    error occurs during rendering. In Idvd

    One common issue is a bug in iDVD. If the sound is muted/disabled in the main menu, sometimes the DVD won't render properly.
    The mute control is EXTREMELY non-obvious. Click the button to show the "drop-ins". One of them should be for sound. Drag any music file (probably a little itunes icon) out of the music drop-in spot. You may see a little speaker icon that is actually a button control. Click it. If it changes to the little speaker with soundwaves, great, it is unmuted. If not, all is not lost. Try dropping a sound file back in there anyway. Play the menu to see if sound comes out. Try the procedure again a couple times, removing the sound file, clicking the speaker once, putting the sound file back in, until playing the menu actually produces sound. Oh and make sure the volume on your computer is actually up, too.
    Last suggestion, try a simpler theme. I was having most trouble with complex themes and long drop-in clips that were taking 3 hours just to render the titles.

  • ITunes Not working Properly/Not Syncing on Network properly

    Hello there,
    For weeks and weeks now on my Computer iTunes will not see or recognize my iPhone 4S and my iPad 3. When I try to sync by opening iTunes on desktop and then wake up pho ad iPad it does not see it and will not show them in iTunes no matter what I do. I have reset network, forget network, renew lease on wifi network and shut down both and turned back on and nothing has worked!!! I have reported this many times as well in the past. It is like Apple themselves have changed the way iTunes suyncs with the phone and ipad when trying to sync to make updates on apps.I am at wits end!!! Since they did the update to 10.6.1 it has been a pain in the you know what to sync to update apps.I got to plug both in to computer for them to sync and update apps or update apps from the iphoor ipad itself. Please Apple or someone who knows what needs to be fixed please fix it it is very aggrevating it has been weeks like this and I would have thoughht that Apple would have gotten the hint when I have seen others complain about this as well. It is from what I see most of the time it is with Windows 7 computers that have this syncing connectivity issue but I do see it happen in Wndows Vista as well as I have both operating systems here with 2 iphones, 1 iphone 4s logged in to windows vista when updating apps and the other which is windows 7 and it has ipad 3 and iphone 4s attached to it to sync when updates to apps become available. I hope some can make sense of all this and help or get apple to fix the issue finally!!!!

    well, it is easy. i just wish it to sync in a manner that i do not get frustrated with it. it just does not like to sync when i open up itunes on desktop to update apps when they have updates. i have got to revert to plugging in the phone and ipad for it to sync and update apps. if you read through the whole thing you would have found it out. all i am saying is that itunes 10.6.1 and ios 5.1 have bugs and issues that make it hard for a iphone and ipad user to sync and update apps. itunes is slow to open with windows 7 as well as i did not mention that before but i have mentioned it in my other forum posts.
    summary:
    itunes 10.6.1, is slow to open on windows 7,
    syncing ipad and iphone does not update without plugging them in.
    wifi sync is not working properly or as it should, it doesn't recognize phone and ipad unless plugged in.

  • DVD's not burning properly

    Creating projects in iDVD5 I am getting projects which seem to be missing data enough to cause jittering or stopage of the movie. Any Ideas???

    Hi Joe,
    Any Ideas???
    not yet...put in some more info.
    where is the movie coming from? How long? where is it stuttering/stopping? Where are you playing it? Did you create a disc image and did that play fine?
    What type of DVD did you use? Burn speed?
    these are things that could bring us closer to the solution

  • When trying to burn a DVD, my burner is not recognized

    I am running WinXP. I recently used Adobe Premiere4, for about a year had no issues with   burning. just recently, after creating the show from video shot with a JVC GZ-MG630 camcorder, then to share and burn, the rendering began and roughly 70% in, there was a dialog box < Adobe Premiere has encountered an error and needs to close>, my options were cancel or debug, by selecting either option, the program closed, and I would start over. I purchased Adobe Premiere9 thinking maybe my version was not compat with current updates, etc. i can import the video fine, create the show fine, save the show fine, when I select share and burn, there is a yellow triangle where my burner drive is and selecting burn I get < cannot burn the selected file( or something like that).>
    how do I overcome this hiccup and get my discs burned like I used to?

    Welcome to the forum.
    This ARTICLE contains a lot of general tips on a burner not being recognized, and offers some possible fixes. Often, it is other software getting in the way, or it might be just a simple firmware update needed by the burner.
    Good luck,

  • IDVD 6 not burning to my 3rd Party DVD burner

    help!
    I have an external superdrive but iDVD is not recognizing it and not letting me burn a dvd.When I look at my system profiler it recognizes the lacie burner, but then says that it doesn't support dvd burning?? anybody know about this and how to get around it? thanks!
    Russeau

    This is an an external "Firewire" burner, is it not? Did you visit their website for the latest drivers? Did you run apple's software updater immediately after connecting or installing this device?
    I like Lacie FW Burners. It's a high quality product. But frankly, I prefer building my own (at half the price) since doing so requires no additional 3rd party drivers.

  • DVD is burning but not showing

    I've used iDVD many times. This project (routine family). First burn? Only title page with music and motion. click on play it says not permitted. I went back to the "tree". Only 2 frames visible. Didn't have a pic on the title background. Drug one over, looked at the tree, big tree, lotsa frames. I Burned it. It burned twice as much DVD as first try. But same problem.
    I read ahead and dumped iDVD plist. Nothing.
    I have a Macpro, 2 gigs, plenty of HD space 2.66 ghrz.

    Try 'saving as disk image' and see if that goes successfully. Then, burn disks from the disk image using Disk Utility.
    Using any chapter markers?
    Trashing plist is always a good idea Sorry it didn't work.

  • DVD not working properly when played on DVD player

    I created a DVD using FCP and DVDSP, it plays fine on my Mac and my regular DVD player. However, it plays once through on a TV Guardian DVD Player and then will not play again. I don't know much about these players but they filter foul language and such when playing DVDs. The DVD that I created doesn't have foul language or anything that would be considered objectionable on it.
    Has anyone had experience with these types of players or this situation?

    Another thing to check is your bitRates and whether you encoded the audio to A.Pack/Dolby. I have often seen machines play once or twice then start having playback issues or not play.

  • Qosmio G20: Can not burn CD's but only DVD's - power calibration error

    Hi
    I'm having some trouble and i think it's very strange.
    I can't record audio or data cd's!
    i've used sonic reducer, as nero, as windows media player..tried 3 different brands of cd'r and i can't burn audio or data files in any of those..BUT...on the other hand i can burn DVD'S...this is very strange right?
    Ps: when i record with nero i keep having this message on the relatory of the burning process : "power calibration error" but only i when i try to burn cd´s.. dvd's recording doesn't have this problem
    do i need to update some drivers?
    please any help would be super or i will have to make a big trip to solve the problem on the laptop shop.
    regards

    "Power calibration" - When burning a CD the drive tries to write a test signal to the disk to set the calibration of the laser. If it cannot write a readable signal, this is called a "power calibration error". The error message usually means that there is something wrong with the media.
    Please try to use few different empty CDs (Verbatim, TDK, Maxell and others).
    Check also this page http://www.cd-burner-help.com/power-calibration.htm
    Maybe helps.
    Good luck!!!
