DVD Title Not Same as Project Name...huh?

Hey Gang,
Burning multiple copies of a DVD slideshow project for a small nonprofit.
The subsequent DVDs are reading "My Great DVD" instead of the project name.
Does anyone know why, or mor importantly, how I can fix this?
Many thanks,

Hi Dwain Wilson
Did you check the Help Menu for iDVD6?
Naming a DVD disc
By default, the name of the final DVD matches the name of your iDVD project. You can change the disc name so the final burned disc has a different name.
To name a DVD disc:
Choose Project > Project Info. Type the new name in the Disc Name box.
DVD titles cannot have spaces. If there is a space in your DVD title, it is replaced with an underscore (_). The only characters that can be used are the numbers from 0 to 9, the uppercase and lowercase characters A to Z, and the underscore (_).
Note: If you want to change the name of the project too, choose File > Save As and type a new name for the project. Now you have the same project with two different names. You can delete the first one if you don't want to keep it.
"My Great DVD" is the default title system w/in iDVD6 application. If you delete a title or simply forget to name the project, iDVD will generate this title to keep track of all iDVD projects. You can't get rid of this feature in iDVD to the best of my knowledge other than renaming the project.

Compiled CHM File Does Not Reflect New Project Name

I have read many of the experts' responses to posts and found them extremely helpful. However, I have not seen one that addresses my issue.
I have RH HTML Version RH8. I renamed a project via 1) File - Rename Project and 2) Single Source Layouts - Primary Layout - Properties - Output Folder and File Name.
Two problems are: 1) The Project Folder name still reflects the old project name and 2) The CHM file still reflects the old project name.
As a result, the output Help that the user sees still has the old project name in the title bar.
All generated files as well as the RoboHelpHTML Project File were changed to the new project name, just as the RENAME PROJECTS Help says it should. However, the CHM file does not reflect the new project name as it says it should.
1) Can I change the Folder name that was created when I compiled the Help file to the correct name?
2) Can I change the FILENAME in the SELECT OUTPUT FOLDER AND FILENAME window?
3) Can I / should I rename the TOC and Index filenames from the old project name to the new project name? (Help says that changing the project name does not change these file names and it didn't.)
Will any of these actions correct the problem? I appreciate any help you can give.

Welcome to our community
Try File > Project Settings.
And if that doesn't get it, try the Project Set-up pod, windows and change the Window Caption.
Cheers... Rick

First play DVD chapter titles not showing correct chapter name

Hi All,
I know I'm probably missing something obvious, so hopefully someone can point out my error pretty quickly.
I have one track set to first play with 10 chapter markers, all with specific names. The hope is to be able to insert the burned DVD into any player/computer and have it first play with the ability to proceed chapter to chapter with the correct text/title appearing. For example, instead of the title "Chapter 1" we would instead, like the client to see the title "Introduction".
I did click the "embed text data" button in the Advanced tab and that did not change anything.
Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks!
Kristal

I just made sure that the Chapter Marker was at the very beginning of the clip, and that seemed to have solved the problem.

Importing home recorded DVD footage not working. File names are grayed out.

I converted a VHS tape to a DVD with a machine my cousin owns. It all plays fine in DVD Player but I can't import the files into iMovie 09. All the filenames are grayed out in the import dialogue box.
How can I make it work?
Thanks in advance!
I have a "VIDEO_RM" folder with (.BUP, .IFO, .VOB, BUP, .IFO, VOB,files)
Also hav"VIDEO_TS" folder with the same types of files.... none of the files are importable into iMovie 09 and none of them seem to work inside quicktime. But they do play in my VLC player.

Thanks a lot! I will try this as soon as I can. Sorry for not finding this for myself. I did a discussion search on the subject, but not as thorough as I should of I guess.

How can I change my DVD title without opening a new project?

My DVD title comes up as the name of the DVDSP file name of my project, and i want to give the DVD itself a different title. I tried "save as" and saving the project as the title I want, but that did not work. Where can I change this? Thanks!

In the Outline Tab, select the Disk.
In the Inspector, type in the Name field.

Captivate 8, Publish, Project Title isn't remembered if it is the same as file name

Example:
Publish a Captivate 8 project and change the Project Title to 'Test'
Save the project as 'FinalTest'
Publish the project again and change the Project Title to 'FinalTest' (It should be remember 'Test' from before)
Publish the project again and notice the Project Title is still 'Test'
Workaround
Save the project temporarily as something else
Publish the project as 'FinalTest'
Save the project as 'FinalTest'
Adobe PLEASE FIX

I am having the same issue and it is particularly frustrating when you are continuously publishing for testing. I tried to follow the workaround but still could not get the project title to stick in the 'Publish to My Computer' dialog box.

Linked content using RH project name for topic title instead of FM file/heading name

Anyone seen this before? (and, yes, for anyone who is interested, the epub of my book should be available once I get this solved)
-Matt
PS: the htm filename is fine, it's just the topic title that's odd.
Message was edited by: mattrsullivan

I'm pretty sure that was in reference to setting Topic Title markers...not something I want to do in a 700 page book!
More info: The book processes and validates a clean EPUB if I omit the index, and throws 300+ errors when I include the index.
Via Notepad++. the index shows <section name=(the project name)>, so I imagine it's taking offense at the eleventy-six files with the exact same topic identifier.
Anyone seen this before??

TCS 4 - Mapping FM chapter title to show actual chapter title as topic and not a random topic name?!

I recently upgraded from TCS 2 to TCS 4. I use it to "link" FM books to Robohelp and provide webhelp output to our tech team.
I saved my project settings from previous project and imported them into the project I was re-creating (same source book). The project generated without errors and with the correct number of files (I did experience some crashes but they did get resolved).
When I delivered the webhelp output to tech (using a version control application) we discovered some of the files had different file names.
It seems that all of the chapter title styles in my FM books are being brought over with a different name, such as with the name of the project. This issue is only for my FM chapter titles, which before were also topic titles and still are but with a different name. Because I'm linking a book, I cannot re-name the files.
In !SSL! folder my old file used to read something like this:
C:\CompanyProductName\!SSL!\WebHelp\CPN_Help\04.UG.Intro.htm
and how appears as this:
C:\CompanyProductName\!SSL!\WebHelp\CPN_Help\04.UG.Intro\Company_Product_Name.htm
In the Robohelp Project Manager, the file that you see in Topic List view appears as Company Product Name, instead of "Introduction". The correct content is there but the topic title is the project name.
It seems that the conversion settings changed slightly from TCS 2 to TCS 4 and maybe I just don't understand what I need to select. I previously selected Topic Name Pattern to be (Default). Today, I tried different options to no avail. I couldn't get my topic file names to change unless I change the topic name pattern for all the topics (I can't do that for 2000+ files!).
Attached are the settings I'm using. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Your TCS4 conversion settings window looks a bit different than my TS3. I have a menu of options for the Topic Name Pattern, but yours doesn't.
I set my H1, H2 and H3, to start a new file and to name it based on the paragraph text <$paratext>.
For your Title Chapter, select "Pagination (split into topics).
And under Topic Name Pattern name, try manually entering <$paratext> or any other combination you want for the html file title.
Alternatively,
Select Topic Name Marker and your files will take on the name of the text in the topic alias.

CS6 Pshop - Alerts at startup; "All Readable Documents" not defaulting at opening; Format in file name not same as Format list when saving file

Just downloaded CS6 Design Standard. System - OS10.6.8 (about to upgrade to 10.8), iMac 27 i5Intel 4core 12GBram 2.66Ghz
As Pshop opens, I get three alerts...
1 - Could not load Enable Async I/O module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
2 - Could not load Multiprocessor Support module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
3 - Could not load FastCore Routines module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
Then asks if I want to be connected to internet or something like that. Then Pshop opens even before I click OK
None of these happened with CS5.5
I realize CS6 is 64bit. I have CS5.5 set at 32bit because of plugins.
Two issues I've noticed so far with CS6.
1 - As I open a document, the Enable selections drop down at bottom of window is not set on anything. I have to always select the All Readable Documents. Not the case in CS5.5 which was always default at All Readable Documents. Could not find anything in Prefs to this issue.
2 - When saving a document, whether RGB or CMYK, the drop down Format selections are not accurate. The first three or four do read correctly as correlating with the suffix (.jpg .tif etc) in the file name at top of window. But then the subsequent format selections below third or fourth one read as the one above it in the list.
eg: as RGB file: Saving through BMP indicates same in file name at top (.bmp). However, the next choice below that, Gif, still shows as .bmp in file name at top. And so on to bottom of list. Same with CMYK file.
Never saw this in CS5.5.
When I initially installed CS6, I noticed only item in the Plugins folder was Panels folder.... no other plugins. I thought this to be a download error of some sort and dragged basic plugins from 5.5 into 6 Plugins folder. Could this be the problem? Otherwise, I would have NO plugins in CS6
I have downloaded CS6 twice now thinking the first was corrupted. I used both download options on Adobe page - Akamai and standard
Same issues with both. One response stated this all to be a plugins problem. I have uninstalled "after market" plugins from both 5.5 & 6 SuperBladePro was the only one. Restarted CS6. Still same problems. Only items in Plugins are what came with program.

I owe an apology to the previous responder Chris C, to this issue. I misread his solution thinking he meant I needed to delete ONLY the "additional" plugins like SBPro. Which I did. But rereading, I see he meant ALL the plugins I dragged from 5.5 because the 6 plugins folder was empty.
I thought it was corrupted in download. So if you guys get points for solutions, be sure Chris gets a few since I responded saying it did not work.
In fact, after removing the 5.5 plugins from 6, everything is working fine.
Plus I didn't know the 6 plugin folder was for the "after markets" like SBPro which is good to know.
Also thanks for the fairly quick response. I'm typically dubious about forums as troubleshooting solutions.
Kinda like sending a message in a bottle out to sea. Never know when it's coming back.
Sometimes issues are urgent. Your response team has encouraged me greatly :-)
But still bummed that Chats do not support CS6 however.

6.1 NPD - Project Name and Status not showing in the Project Header

I have this issue in 6.1 NPD - The NPD Project Name and Status is not showing in the Project header when opening a project. Any ideas? Thank you.

Is this happening for NPD Projects that are newly created, prior to clicking Save? Or for already existing NPD projects?

Premiere elements does not recognize Blu-Ray disc, says media not present. Under 12 I was able to record 3 blu-ray dvds using the same burner and discs I'm trying with 13. What is the problem?

I installed PE13 and cannot burn blu-ray DVDs. I was able to burn 3 blu-ray DVDs using PE12. When I select DVD from the menu it recogniazes that it is not a stadard DVD as I get an 'incorrect media' error message. It will burn standard DVDs of the same video using standard DVD mefia.
What is going on here?
When I loaded PE 12 back on the computer I cannot load a file created with PE13. Looks like a format change? Can I convert file back to PE12?

Please let me know if this ISO Image choice is going to work for you. But I will keeping searching for the answer to these no media present situations.
