DVD playback problem or exporting problem?

I recently did a video for a singer to be used on a local video channel. I shot the video on a Panasonic DVX-100P at 24 FPS. I edited the project using Final Cut Pro 5, converted the video using Compressor (to MPEG2) then imported all the contents of the video processed into DVD Studio Pro. Here's the thing: the video plays fantastic on my Macbook, plays wonderfully well on my friend's television as well. But when it's played on other DVD players there is a serious problem with the artist's music being synched to his movement. In other words, it doesn't play right on other DVD players. My question is what setting do I need to check or change to make this thing play right on all players. All comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for all the help!

By bitrate, i meant, what settings did you use in Compressor to encode your video. The Bitrate you provided is not a bit rate, but a frame rate. The audio "channels" you provided are AC3 and PCM, but DVDSP only allows one type of audio per project. I would suggest using only AC3 and compressing all AIFF. Are you using Apple Brand blank discs?

DVD Playback problem with H/w accel on Ti4200

Hello folks,
I have a problem with DVD playback using WinDVD Platinum on my MSI 128Mb GF4 Ti4200 (MS-8700). When I play a DVD with hardware acceleration enabled I get a sort of ghosting or delayed flash photography effect similar to that which gives headlights trails. This doesn't occur with the Detonator 40.72 drivers
or MSI 41.07 drivers but occurs with
the NVidia 41.09s, 43.00s and now 43.45 drivers under WinXP SP1. The problem only occurs with hardware acceleration enabled and has happened with both DX8.1 and 9.0. I didn't have this problem with the 41.09s under Win2k SP3.
Does anyone else have this problem or know of a solution.
Thanks,
Morpheus
System Specs:
Athlon XP 2000+
512MB DDR Ram
Asus A7V333-R
Soundblaster Audigy Player
Realtek 8139 based NIC
Win XP SP1
DirectX 9.0

Sound is fine its just the picture that has the problem but I have narrowed it down further by downloading WinDVD Tweaker. If I disable DxVA but leave hardware decode and colour selected the problem isn't present. Therefore I suspect something has corrupted my DxVA drivers however as I originally had 8.1 installed and then installed 9.0 in an attempt to fix this I don't think a reinstall of DX will solve the problem.
Any ideas.
Cheers,
Morpheus

Exporting problem: How can I make a PAL DVD with NTSC footage?

Hi everyone,
I need some help as I've been trying to burn a DVD for a couple of days now but it still isn't working. Here is my situation:
I shot a lot of standard definition DV with my Canon GL-2 (NTSC, bought in America) that I imported into the trial version of Premiere 5.5.
I edited the footage and set out to make a DVD with the footage that will play on PAL televisions as I live in Australia now and it's all PAL over here.
I exported the footage and put it onto Windows DVD Maker because the trial version of Premiere doesn't let you use Encore.
The footage looked great on Premiere and on the little preview that you get through Windows DVD Maker, but when I burnt the DVD and tried playing it on my TV it looked really bad.
The big problem was the color. Everything was much too red, particularly people's faces.
I assume the problem lies in my export settings, and I was hoping someome who has done this before could help me out. I tried a variety of settings, but they all looked bad and I'd prefer not to waste any more money on DVDs that look like hell.
Is there anyone out there who can tell me how I can get the DVD to look like it does on my computer? What setting would I need to apply? I have been all over the internet, looking at a lot of tutorials and forums, but havent found an answer yet.
Thanks a bunch!
Shawn
PS- My academic credentials have now been verified by Adobe, so if you know a way to do this using Encore, please let me know because in a few hours I will have access to that as well. Cheers!

Hey shooternz, thanks for the fast reply.
My DVD player is playing the DVDs so that's OK, the real problem is that they look so bad. I just bought a whole mess of DVDs because I thought I would just experiment while I was waiting to see if anyone could help me out, and the results have been frustrating. I tried it with all PAL settings and the first DVD I made was much better. That one didnt have all of the sections, just one of the chapters (I wanted to check quickly whether the setting I had was a good one, so I just put a short 7 minute clip on). Encouraged, I tried burning the whole disc using the same settings, but it came out crappy again. Much too red. This is really frustrating me. My computer is new, so I can't see why there would be any problem with the DVD burner, but if two DVDs with the same export settings are coming out differently, I'm thinking it might have to be a problem with either the DVD burner or the DVDs?
Can anybody suggest anything? I'm dying here.

Annoying video/DVD playback problems on new Mac mini (2010)

I have a Mac mini at home right now, latest edition (2010).
I am very surprised to find that DVD playback exhibits signs of stutters here and there. Not huge stutters, but I can constantly see small "skips" and what seems like frame drops here and there. Playing back the same DVD on a $120 Blu-ray-player shows no sign of this behaviour.
I have tried this on two different TV sets (one 720p and one 1080p), and the mini is not able to play back a DVD without these stutters/skips. Two different blu-ray players play the disc just fine (I have been using Ghost Dog to test - check chapter to and the scenes containing panning, it's easier to notice that way).
It seems ordinary video files playback (files from HD, 720p, mkv) exhibit some of the same behaviour, though this seems more dependent on which app is used for playback. Quicktime seems worse (noticeable stutters/skips), VLC 1.1 a bit better (though both DVD playback and file playback show signs of stutter), while XBMC is the best of the three, with very little frame drop (if that is in fact what it is).
Any idea what's going on here? Why will such a expensive machine with HDMI output not play back video properly, while a cheap Blu-ray-player does it just fine?
Are there any known issues?
(sorry for posting this in the wrong from earlier!)

I have not used the dvd player app in my 2010 mini, but I've certainly played every media type under the sun since receiving it.
It plays them all without dropping frames, stuttering, pausing, etc.
Are you using dvd player with dvd disc images, video ts folders, or actual DVD discs in the drive?
If you're playing a disc image or video ts folder, are you accessing them over wireless networking? If so, try them on the internal drive, or over a wired network connection.
Try turning off the option is in energy saver that allows drive sleep (system sleep can stay where it is, just turn off *hard drive* sleep).
For best performance, make sure you aren't running other apps besides the media player app that you're using at the time.
Make sure you don't have software or utilities running background tasks (such as disk warrior, drive genius or tech tool pro).
If you have external devices connected (including printer and/or scanner), try the system without them connected. Does the video playback improve without them connected? If it does, then try reconnecting them one by one to figure out which one of them is related to the problem.

Film Export problem - DVD Studio Pro 4!

I have a problem when exporting my dvd as .img file.
The protokoll says (in german): Achtung: Die Datei „NAME-MPEG-2; 6,4 MBit/s; 2-Pass; 4/3.m2v“ im VIDEO_TS- oder HVDVD_TS-Ordner ist auf der fertiggestellten DVD nicht enthalten.
means the original file is not included. what can i do?
In my dvd studio pro document all data is imported and green light.
Need help!

It is probably a standard warning message to say that the file is not included in the video_ts folder - which is quite alright... you don't want that in there. When the video_ts folder is created it should only contain .vob, .bup and .ifo files. Anything else is technically 'illegal' to be contained there, and will be omitted.
Does your burn complete? Can you play the disc?

DVD Playback Error Problems.

Hi,
When I put in a DVD a initialation error pops up saying Player requires a newer version of DVD Playback frame work
[-70103]. How do I fix this? Thanks.

I would suggest running a system software update.
Keep in mind that it is recommended to back up your important files and data before doing so.
The option to do so should be in your Apple menu.

CS4 Audio Export Problem

Hi
I'm fairly new to CS4 and have picked up an audio export problem, more than likely with a setting of sorts. For some reason when I export to MPEG2 -DVD via the Media Encoder, the video portion is fine as well as any audio that has been placed and edited on tracks audio 1 and 2 in PP. However, if there is additional audio placed on tracks 3 or 4 for example (say a music MP3 overlay) then this does not come out ... only audio placed on tracks 1 and 2 in PP come out. I have checked the obvious like making sure the tracks aren't muted etc but to no avail. Also tried changing from PCM audio to MPEG ... Stereo to 5.1 mixdown ... nothing doing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards

Thanks Harm ... got SnagIt and with a few helpful YouTube tutorials ... am in business. Hunt and John, also thanks ... the other method equally as good. Now, I have attempted to attach my screen shot which should display my CS4 timeline and associated audio monitor windows above. By the way, this was for a wedding and as indicated, you will notice an MP3 lying in audio track 3 which as mentioned is my problem as it is not audible after render via Media Encoder. But remember, the moment I slip this MP3 up into audio track 1 or 2 above ... problem solved. I know there must be something small like a setting gone wrong or incorrect. As mentioned, any help would greatly appreciated.
Thanks to you all.

Major "BUG" in Imovie 9 - Audio Sync Problem on Export !

Well I'm a hard-core Apple user from day one, but unfortunately today I'm not to proud about the latest version of Imovie 9.
It seems there has been a "MAJOR audio sync problem on export" in Imovie 9, since July 2009. Apple knows about this bug for a long time now, but didn't release any bugfix yet!
Here's what it's all about:
It seems if you use the (custom /manual) speed-adjustments and not the preset slider speeds, you will experience (after exporting your movie) annoying bursts of audio from clips that had been set to mude. The strange thing is that you will only experience this audio-bug after exporting, you will NOT experience it in the project playback mode!
Here's what you can do:
Find ALL the clips in your Project that are Speed Adjusted.
Instead of using a "Custom Speed" percentage, use any of the "Preset Speeds"
Preset Speeds on the Slider = 12.5%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 200%, 400%, 800%
Then, export your project as usual.
No more sync issues.
Really hope That Apple will come up with a real BUGFIX soon.
It's a shame that a major bug in a otherwise GREAT PRODUCT, hasen't been fixed yet!
What's wrong with Apple?...this is not one of their finest hours.
Still A BIG fan from Imovie HD,...I'll chance to Imovie 9 when the bugs are finaly fixed!

This is TERRIBLE! I have spent so much time working on this project, and I really don't want to adjust the speed settings to the preset levels, BECAUSE I need to motion of the video to match certain musical points. I can't re-film my video, and I needed this project done TODAY. I made a music video with some kids at summer camp, and today is the last day- the day we were supposed to all watch it together, and now, I've got NOTHING!!!! (Because I can't export it without all those glitches!)
I am MAJORLY DISAPPOINTED on this one. I've made movies in windows movie maker before, and purposely used imovie, because you know, everything on macs is supposed to be better. Well, I guess I was wrong.

Export problems multiple movieclips to image sequence

For our customer we made several flash animations. My output has to be image sequences for Cinemascope format. The export function in Flash for image sequences does not work! All my images are the same frame. This is frame 0 on the timeline. So the embedded movieclips wont playback.
When exporting a Quicktime movie, some frames are skipped and missing in the output! So the export options in Flash are totally not working for my situation. We bought an application SWF to image but also here are some frames missing in the export. I can not relay on Flash and this application.
The project is built like this: we made several movieclips and scaled them and put them in position. Then we made one new movieclip with all the earlier made movieclips inside. Then scaled the entire movieclip to the Cinemascope stage size.
Are we using Flash in a wrong way here?
Why does the exports functions don't work on my project? (built in movieclips won't play, quicktime mov skips images)
How can i solve this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Greetings Henk

Ok this is workaround but should in principle do what you want:
//create an instance of library object
var mylibrary = fl.getDocumentDOM().library;
var doc = fl.getDocumentDOM();
var tl = fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline();
//get items in library in an Array
itemArray = mylibrary.items;
totalCount = itemArray.length;
for(var i=0;i<totalCount;i++){
    myItem = itemArray[i];
    myItemType = myItem.itemType;
    myItemName = myItem.name;
    mylibrary.editItem(myItemName);
    fcNum = tl.layers[0].frameCount;
    for (f=0; f<fcNum;f++){
            tl.setSelectedFrames(f, f)
            framenum = f + 1;
            //select your destination, on MAC use something like file:///Macintosh HD/Users/username/Desktop/
            doc.exportPNG("file:///C|/test/"+myItemName+ "_" + framenum +".png", true, true);
1: open the fla file you want to convert to a movie and create a backup
2: Create a new Flash Javascript file and insert the code above, Make sure you have enough hard disk space in your destination folder
3: Press the play button and Flash will automatically parse through all items frame by frame in your library and save the images as png
4: Take a break as it might take a long time

Sound problems after export media in premiere pro cs6

hello,
i recently started usining premiere c6 and after exported my project to mpeg-dvd i noticed that sound quality is reasonably lost, than exported sound separatedly without video to wav and result was the same bad. The imported sound source was really good, recorded in studio- wav 24 bit 48000. Before i used cs3 and never had such a sound problem after export video.
thank you very much,
Poly

It's difficult to speculate without hearing the original and the export. Can you upload them?

Export problems- it's renaming my MOVs to strange things and they're huge!

Hey guys,
strange fcp export problem. I have a 10 minute anim compressed fcp project, 1920x1080, 30fps on a top-of-the-range macbook pro with external terabyte HD. I did a test export a couple of days ago, because our deadline is really soon, and that all worked fine - a 10 minute quicktime, 100% anim codec, was 26GB. That was fine. I did another test clip, just a spinning bitmap for 10 mins, from AfterEffects with similar, succesful, results and file sizes.
Now, however, when I export, it comes out as 60GB, and FCP changes the filename to something which is the first half of the filename I chose, and a strange number for the second half which is different each time I try it. Something like "filena#CF342.mov", for example. This file seems to have video in it OK, but it's 3 times the size, and the data rate is much higher, too high to play back.
The only changes I've made since my successful test are replacing many of the low res previews with hi res versions, and adding 1 minute to the end. And I changed my QMaster setup, not sure if that's anything to do with it.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm getting pretty worried.....
thanks in advance....

Thanks for the quick reply! No, don't think that's the problem. The new render doesn't have an alpha channel - it's Animation 100% Millions (not Millions+), and I don't think that would add more than 25% to the file size anyway. It also wouldn't account for the strange renaming of filenames. And the increase in length is only 10%. The file size has tripled!
The final delivery format was going to be animation, 1920x280, because it's going to projected on a 30m wide cinema screen and live TV tomorrow night but our playback solution (while it handles the test files ok) can't handle the data rate of these strange new files: it's 800mb/s, which is pretty ridiculous.
The renaming of the files suggests (to me at least) some kind of bug/error, but it doesn't report any kinda error in either fcp or quicktime.
Plan B is to recompress the strange big file using h264 which gives an ok quality and is 10% of the size. Reason I'd like to do it animation is I need to do several versions with different gamma, so I need to do further processing on the rendered file after it's dumped from FCP.
Any thoughts? I'd like to get to the bottom of this.
one thought - I didn't tick "recompress all files" and some of the source DOES have alpha - would it be taking the alpha channel even though I didn't ask for it?

Sharing/Exporting Problem

I created a project. No problem. I can view the project in IMovie. No problem. The problem is trying to export or share the project so I can burn it onto a DVD. Regardless of how I export or share it, after I export or share it, several of the video segments in the project are dark. The sound is there, just not the video. Any suggestions, ideas?

I can see clearly now, for some reason, the format of my video is "Animation"
Yes, this is a known problem. Animation is frequently used as an "intermediate" file format by applications like LiveType and Snapz Pro X. Until Apple can figure out the problem, the only remedy is to convert these files to another format. Havent tried it but if you are "adventurous," you could try converting the files while they are in the event folder ensuring the new files have the same name, trash the event and project thumbnails, and re-open iMovie '08 to see if it re-generates the thumbnails properly without having to re-edit the project. As I say, I've never tried this and have no idea what would happen.

Problem on export with cuda

I have problem when exporting with AME - the export failed to render
I'm doing the same workflow for about 2-3 years- exporting sequence of about an hour 1080P to h.264 (HD) and mpeg2DVD to burn on CD (cant wait to finish with this DVD old workflow),
like I said the render every now and then failed and my workaround is to turn CUDA off in AME what solve it but its extremely slow
I'm not sure how it is on CC 2014 'cause I'm working on older project and havent moved to 2014, anyway I've updated my quadro 2000d.
I think it got something to do with the adjustment layers, most of the time when I'm not using them it renders, but of course I need to use them.
I really need this to work as usual it's slowing me down and I dont know why
