DVD Studio 2 Templates Location?

Hi,
I have a new iMac with Lion. I've upgraded to FCPX and all is fine, until I went to author a DVD...
Now I still have FCS2, but it won't install in my new machine as it won't accept PowerPC installs. So I grabbed DVD Studio Pro from my back-up from my old mac and all is good. But, all the templates and the like are missing. I guess because I only brought across the application and not the associated files.
Anyone know where the relevant files are and more importantly, where I copy them in Lion to make this work correctly (unless the file structure is the same).
Thanks

Solved. Just copied the DVD Studio folder from old back-up to library.

  • DVD studio pro templates

    I upgraded to  FCStudio about three years ago but cannot find a DVD studio Pro 4 content disc.  I had several discs with the upgrade but cannot find a DVD studio Pro one.  I cannot remember if it came with a disc or not, does anyone know if there should be one with it.  If not, where can I buy the templates?  Many thanks.

    Regardless of whether you bought an upgrade or full price retail copy, FCS includes everything -the set of discs is identical. The difference is in the type of serial number you got.
    You should have got a DVD Studio Pro Content disc with the set.

  • DVD Studio 4 templates

    I've been using DSP2 for a long time, basically one template over and over for wedding dvd's.
    Just upgraded to 4. The same template, when I drag the asset into the "full motion" clips that play on the menu, the clip looks really light and faded (it's sepia tone to begin wtih, but the old template would play the clips with nice contrast). Is there an opacity setting for these clips that play on the menu? Not sure why the default is so light and washed out in the new one.
    Thanks in advance

    Never saw DVDSP2
    3 and 4 have very similar templates, so
    perhaps the opacity changed from what
    you're used to with that
    You can try and re-create the template
    from scratch in DVDSP's built-in
    Overlay Menus if you have time
    cheers

  • Exporting a custom menu template from DVD Studio Pro

    So I recently developed a custom template in DVDSP that my company wants to use on all our DVDs.  Is there any way to export or share this template with my coworkers, or am I stuck with DVD duty?

    Ah, after posting this, I found a solution here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/12420982#12420982
    The instructions are slightly off: you look in User>Library>Application Support>Final Cut Studio>DVD Studio Pro>Templates and there you go.

    Help!!! Where can I purchase DVD Studio Pro 4 Templates

    If you mean the ones included with DVD SP 4, they are part of the software, otherwise google:

  • Can't install DVD SP 4 Templates

    I am installing DVD Studio Pro 4 and the installation process seems to hang at 99% where it says DVD Studio Pro Templates. I have to force quit the installer Of course, I can't see any templates when I launch the application. Any ideas how to get the Templates to install on my G5? I have tried checking just the Templates box in the installer with the same result. Perhaps I need to do an Uninstall, but I don't know where all the files are to do that.
    Thanks

    Yes you can.

  • Copying iDVD preset to DVD Studio (no apple logo)

    Hi All,
    I've said that I'd author a dvd for a DOP using DVD Studio Pro 2.
    I've authored other basic DVDs using DVD studio before.
    The DOP tried something in iDVD and showed me the example of what he wanted.
    It was a simple main menu with play all or chapters, however the main menu was a motion menu, it had stills he'd chosen, traversing horizontally accross the screen, with a still he'd chosen in the background.
    It also played a music loop (he'd chosen the track) and the menu faded up with two white lines growing horizontally introducing the menu.
    This I was told was a preset in iLife/ iDVD.
    The unfortunate thing about this preset however is that it has the apple logo in the bottom right corner.
    I would like to duplicate this particular preset using DVD Studio but changing a few of the dimensions/ positions of the stills ie push them all so they wipe the screen slightly lower in the frame, and most importantly, lose the apple logo.
    Is this possible.
    Any help much appreciated.
    All the best.
    Doug

    Few things:
    1) The Apple logo doesn't appear ever in a DVD Studio Pro template
    2) You can turn off the Apple Logo in IDVD in Preferences (if memory serves...might be in the options of the template/project itself)
    3) You can't use an IDVD template in DVD Studio Pro (you can use elements in some instances, but...for all intents and purposes let's just say you can't)
    4) There is no comparable template to what you are describing in DVDSP.
    5) I would advise creating it in IDVD and simply turn off the Apple Logo

  • DVD Studio Pro 4.o Install Problem

    I had trouble installing FCP Studio on a MBP. Disk space is no problem; I set installer to put the loops and templates on a clean, new 300 Gb drive, and main drive has 40 Gb free.
    The installer keeps hanging on the portion where it states it is writing the DVD Studio Pro Templates. The first time, the progress bar got to 100%, but did not move for 30 minutes, and both the nottom buttons are greyed.
    I did a force quit, tried from beginning (skipping components that did get upgraded), and this time it just stopped at 98%.
    For the third try, I had to skip everything related to DVD Studio Pro, and the installer got to the end of its work ok.
    Not sure what I am missing- I have on my remote drive:
    Library/Application Support/DVD Studio Pro/Apple/
    Patches/
    Shapes/
    Styles/
    Templates/
    with content in all 4 directories.
    It's not critical as I have no immediate needs for pressing DVD titles, but only expect difficult installers when I have to boot in XP

    No Joe, but I've not really tried anything. I have no immediate need for DVD Studio. I thought I maye have had a bad disk but if you have the same issue it might be a problem with the installer script.
    I was installing these on an external drive, bot sure if that is a factor.
    Hopefully Apple reads these forums...

  • Missing DVD Studio Pro 4 templates, shapes, etc...

    I recently had a hard drive meltdown, and had to install a new internal HD. I reinstalled all my software and everything works great except DVD Studio Pro 4.0.3
    I've tried re-installing three times and no matter what I do, all default templates, shapes, text, and buttons are missing.
    I'm still running on OS X 10.4, so it's definitely not an issue with Leopard.
    Does anyone know what is going on? I even updated and they still won't show up.
    Is there anyway to re-install these missing elements?
    PLEASE HELP!

    SOLUTION: After an unbelievable number of hours trying to resolve this "missing templates" situation with DVD Studio Pro 4.2 I finally found the problem (bug?). The choose feature in "preferences" is broken. Apple's instructions tell us to go to the preferences, Destinations, Palette Elements, and set the following path:/Library/Application Support/DVD Studio Pro which, as you probably already know, does not work. Reinstall doesn't work either. Nothing works.
    This is what DOES work.
    You need to MANUALLY enter the "drive name" into the selection box "after" you have selected the correct location, i.e. after I made my selection the following came up in the entry box, /Library/Application Support/DVD Studio Pro. The problem is that the "choose" process did not automatically include the drive name. After adding the name, in this case, "Boot 1," the entry box then read, Boot 1/Library/Application Support/DVD Studio Pro. Everything loaded and remained in place. After I restarted DVDSP to reassure myself it was working and found everything to be OK, I went to the preferences and to my dismay I found the entry had changed to:
    /Library/Application Support/DVD Studio Pro/Apple. NOTICE, I did not have "/Apple" in my original destination and the entry I made, "Boot 1," was conspicuously missing. I recall previously trying the path with "/Apple" included and it wouldn't work. The only thing that made a difference was adding the drive's name. I hope this helps everybody with this problem.

  • Do DVD Studio Pro 2 templates work in 4?

    Hi,
    I own a version of DVD Studio Pro 2, but was wondering if I bought 4, would these old templates still show up and work in it?

    To get 4 you would need the whole Studio and usually it is a good idea to do a clean install of everything. You can move the DVD SP templates off and see if they work. I do not remember which ones carried forward at this time, but DVD SP 4 has many templates and I think they are pretty much the same.
    I see you are using an Intel Mac, so heads up DVD SP 2 is not Universal Binary so if you run into issues that could be the problem. Same for the OS you are running.
    Is there a reason you want to upgrade to 4? The upgrades and collection of software in the new Studio are a good jump if you are running older versions. (Motion Final Cut etc.)

  • I'm using DVD Studio pro to burn a dvd but it won't let me cause I keep getting a "Formatting Failed" error message.  It says "Formatting was not successful. Layer 0 exceeds max layer size allowed. Choose a suitable marker location." What does this mean?

    It means your file is too large to fit on a single layer disk.
    Recompress to keep the overall size (audio,video and menus) below 4.5GB

  • DVD Studio Pro 4 gets stuck when attempting to apply a template

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing a strange issue using DVD Studio Pro 4.2.0 installed along with the complete Final Cut Studio 2 suite. I'm creating a blank, totally new project, and try to apply one of the templates listed in the upper right-hand box:
    The dialog "Applying template" appears, and I can see the bar moving/spinning, but it never goes away. The template background is displayed in the bottom of the scene, but nothing else happens, and the bar spins forever.
    I'm using newest generation macbook pros 2,4GHz with Nvidia graphics under Tiger 10.4.10

    After further investigation, it appears that I'm unable to create any shape on the menus (i.e. button shapes). Drag and drop of any pre-existing shape from the right-hand box has no effect at all.
    Could this have anything to do with file system permissions?

  • Using DVD Studio Pro theater template in Motion: Masking question

    I'm wanting to use the video of the theater interior used in the DVD Studio Pro theater menu template in a Motion project. I'm wondering if there is a 'quick and dirty' way to mask out the black portion that appears when the curtains open, which is used as a 'drop zone' in the DVDSP menu (basically, wanting to get the same 'reveal' effect as I would get in DVDSP) or if I have to mask it frame by frame.
    Thanks!

    Yes...except that's what I tried with the curtain earlier today, and what I got was....very strange. Instead of the the transition of shape that I had keyed, I got what was essentially the final set of points moving and warping in a very strange pattern.
    I'll try it again (and not be as anal and do every frame...try skipping to every second...or half second, so I don't go completely cold turkey).
    Thanks...wanted to make sure I was correct in how I thought it should work. (the art of masking is the one thing that just does not want to sink into this pooh brain of mine...)
