Echo problem during playback on DVD player.

Hey,
I exported my edited movie from AP CS3 onto my computer. I recorded my audio in a fairly large room, so I expected to get some echo.
Anyways, the export on my computer is fine. Sounds great, for stereo sound, everything is fine. When I author a DVD and play it in my player, or with an entertainment system, the voices and sounds echo so badly, that it distracts from the film.
I'm not sure what's going on, as it's quite fine on my computer.
Can anyone help me out? The file on my computer is a H264 video codec with AAC sound. When exporting to DVD from premiere, it's a MPEG 2 something or other.
It sounds like the Stereo tracks have been layered on each other or something. Quite bad echo.
Thanks.

Best guess is that your computer speakers just aren't up to the task of correct audio playback, that the other system has greater dynamic range and allows better audio fidelity.
That's not surprising, most computer speakers aren't sufficient for proper audio monitoring.

I have a ThinkPad T61p which I got one year ago. About one month ago the following problem suddenly appeared: When I want to play a DVD with WinDVD, I get the message "no valid Drive/Disc Found". When I eject and then start the DVD again, it takes about 4 minutes to start the DVD. Everything is very slow, the movie is croppy and I can often hear the laser head moving back and forward. I don't have any problems with other media like CDs or self printed DVDs with no region code and copy protection. I also have no problems with another DVD drive of the same kind (I have a DVD/CD-ROM drive). I tried to solve the problem with the troubleshooter (I have Windows XP), but nothing helped. My settings seem to be all right. Could anyone help me with this problem?

Problems with playback of dvd on another dvd player

When I playback a dvd I've created, once in awhile I'll get a little stutter in the picture and sound. Not too often, but it occasionally happens. If I reverse the dvd picture to somewhere just before the stutter and play again, there is no stutter.
I'm thinking it is an issue with the dvd player and not the burned dvd itself. Am I correct or could it be something else?

Need more info on the DVD Player like brand and model number.
Also what media are you using?
Might be as easy as using a quality DVD Lens cleaner kit from Maxell or 3M.

Recording/Playback on DVD Player

I've already programmed my Verizon remote control to my DVD/VCR player. Which remote control do I use to record and playback. I'm recording from DVD to VCR (VHS Tape). Also, do I have to change TV input for DVD player? TV is currently Video 1. I had DIRECTV and had to set to Video 3 for DVD Player. Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I called Verizon FiOS Tech Support for help with my dilemma. You have to change the video channel from Video 1 (TV) to Video 3 (Audio/Video) first. First, press the DVD button at the top of the Verizon Remote Control; second, press the TV button also at top; third, press the A/V input button at the bottom of remote control until Video Channel is on Video 3. Use your DVD/VCR Remote Control to control record, play, etc. I hope this helps someone who may have the same problem I had. Good luck!

IDVD slideshow won't pause on playback on DVD player. Why?

Why can't I pause an iDVD slideshow on playback?
I make iDVD slideshows and after burning the disk, it will not pause when I push the pause button during playback on a DVD player.

I have a brand new iMac
If you are still within your 15 day return period. Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes.)
Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
408-996-1010
800-692-7753
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

they recommened a 3rd party program so I downloaded "Burn-osx"
Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie. Get iDVD.

Very strange problem with sound in dvd player

Hi
I have a strange issue which I am cannot resolve. I recently purchased season 2 of NYPD Blue on dvd, region 1 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008YGRR/qid=1151702794/sr=1-3/ref=sr13/103-1409159-4182204?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130). The season is spread over several discs. The region of the dvds is the same as that of the superdrive on my 1.25 factory spec 15” pb running 10.4.6.(always has been region1) On playing the dvds in dvd player, the sound is very quiet, and you can hear a slight hissing noise (picture is fine). However, if I set the balance of the speakers in system preferences to the left (as far as I can) the sound becomes louder and the hissing disappears. Hence the sound is normal, other that the fact that it is unbalanced. The same happens if I set the balance to the right. Hence the hiss is only there when the balance is set to the centre or around it i.e. slightly to the left or right. This problem is true of all the dvds in the set.
Fair enough, the nypd discs are defective.
However, I then played them in a standalone dvd player without any fancy sound settings etc and no problems at all. Hence I then thought that the problem was with my pb - the only different thing I have done lately is use handbrake to put some of my other dvds (not these NYPD ones) on my iPod, so I thought that handbrake had done something (although I don’t know see how it could have done anything). However, today I tried some other commercial dvds in my pb (produced by the same company) and they sounded fine as has been the case for over two years. Hence, there is something about the nypd blue dvds which affects the quality of the sound output in my pb when the balance is centred. However, whatever this is it doesn’t seem to bother standalone players, nor is it something that anoth of my other dvds have.
Any ideas on what exactly is going on here, as it has me stumped.
(I don't have any other season of nypd blue, so I can't see if these have the same problem as well.)
Thanks

PROBLEMS WITH PLAYBACK ON DVDS - BURNED WITH iDVD8

Can anyone tell me what is the best speed to use when burning a DVD. I have been using the maximum speed (which I believe my computer defaults to). When I play back on a DVD player it will freeze in certain parts. When I have finished burning the DVD I have noticed grease marks and other small marks on the disc. I have been told it is because I am burning them too fast. I have since tried using 2X and am having the same problem. I am using IDVD8 and DVD-R discs.

It may be the brand of disc. Try Verbatim DVD-R or Verbatim DVD+R DL.

Problems with Superdrive and DVD Player

The first problem is that for a long time, I haven't been able to eject disks by pushing the eject button (on the keyboard, in DVD player, etc) - I have to manually drag the DVD/CD on the desktop to the trash can/eject, or click the eject button in Finder. I know the button itself works fine, because I can eject disks in my Ubuntu Linux partition.
The second problem is that sometimes, while playing DVDs through DVD Player, the Player and/or the DVD itself in the drive freezes up. I can't quit the program, I can't eject the disk, I have to reboot to kill the program and eject the disk. This has happened on random DVDs (only, not any CDs), both that I own and that I received from NetFlix. The disks themselves are not bad, as they will run fine in VLC.
Any help with either of these problems? For what it's worth, the problems both started well before I partitioned the hard drive to install Linux.

Nope, didn't have a clue about that. Had to get my hard drive replaced, but everything's working fine now and holding the eject button down for a couple of seconds works.
Thanks!

Problems during installing windows media player

hello,
i've been trying to download windows media player, and each time i do- the folder is downloaded as windows media-4.sitx, and i've having hard time to finish the download.

While there are links online to get the MS WMP for Mac version 9 for OS X, the
serviceability of this old windows media player from Microsoft may not be suitable
for OS X 10.5.x and may not be capable of running the latest WMP content.
You could still get and try it. Here's a link to Microsoft (Mac) support:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/flip4mac.mspx
{This ^ gives internal links to Flip4Mac and WMP for Mac v.9 so it may be an
idea to check with the Flip4Mac site directly, too, for any newer version. By
looking into the Flip4Mac link at Microsoft, I see the specs say this will open
the same versions as WMP v9 for Mac. This may be old product info.}
Newer site for Flip4Mac= Telestream Flip4Mac WMV (overview)

IDVD slideshow DVD pauses video and audio during playback...messages about sleeping DVD player

I have just burned a slideshow on iDVD from iPhoto book project. During playback, the DVD player pauses with photo visible and audio stops for same time, and then resumes after about 5 seconds. I thought the MP3 (purchased from Amazon because it was not in iTunes) format may have been the issue, so, I converted to AAC, and rebuilt slideshow from scratch using AAC music. During Preview playback, the problem does NOT exhibit...only when played from produced DVD on both computer or DVD player. I only have this one pause at same time on every DVD burned. Is AIFF a probable solution? I saw a message saying DVD player "Sleeping" or "DVD player waked from sleeping" at beginning and end of this pause.

Whoa!!! I'd back up here and make sure you have your "T" s crossed before your continue with 10,000 discs! What were your bitrates for the main track and Bonus features? Did you use AC3 audio? DVD has a bitrate ceilings of 9.8 for video. Its also important you check your bitrates in a viewer to makes sure your OK.
Bitrates are the most crucial part to control in DVD.

Multi-room DVR Issues: Unable to locate hub, interrupted recording, skipping during playback

Hi Guys,
I was wonderng if you could help me. I have been a FIOS customer for many years and have a multi-room HD DVR and 2 HD set-top boxes. I have always had some problems during playback on some recordings where the picture and sound will skip, but over the last several months some new problems have appeared. Frequently during playback of recorded shows the recording will stop playing and I will get a message on the screen "unable to locate hub". I then have to power off the STB, reboot and when I go to the dvr option I have to refresh the devices before connecting to the dvr again. If this happens while a show is recording then the recording stops and then restarts causing the show to be split into 2 recordings. Sometimes I get a message "You have reached maximum playback on DVR". This really frustrating and I would like these issues resolved. I have the older HD dvr, 1 new hd set-top box, and 1 old hd stb. The playback issues happen on both hd stbs. We don't usually watch shows on the dvr itself so I am not sure how it performs during playback. 1 other note that might help troubleshooting is that I can't seem to display the IMG in full screen on the dvr.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Sincerely,
Randy R.

You can only do 1 playback at a time UNLESS you are playing back from the DVR/HUB. If you want to do 2 simultaneous play backs, one of them must be from the DVR. I ran into this same message when my wife would watch a recorded program in one room and I would try to watch a recorded program in another room. Fixed it by moving the DVR to one of the rooms where the conflict occured most often. As for the "unable to locate hub" message. This was a very common problem about a year ago, which was fixed with a software update. You need to check what version software is on all your boxes.

DVD-player does not work

5 days ago I did a clean installation of Mountain Lion on my ca 4 years old MaBook Pro and after that I can not see the dvd-player in Finder. That's not like it is hidden but the problem is that the dvd-player is powered off by the OS. This information I could get thirough "system report" where it says:

DVD player doesn't work correctly

I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 laptop. It's pretty new - bought in the summer. The operating system is Windows Vista.
I have a problem with my DVD player. It often just stops working. It sometimes works after I restart the computer, but for short periods of time. When it doesn't work, it doesn't eject when I click the eject button or when I go to My Computer and choose eject from there. In addition, if there's a disk in it, it's not recognized - when I go to My Computer and double click, it says "Please insert a disk."
However, when I click the eject button on the player, an orange light shows up for a second. It doesn't make any sound, though.
When it works and I burn a DVD, the sound it makes isn't continuous which shows that it doesn't work continuously(right?). I mean, it burns and the burning process seems to be getting somewhere and then the sound stops for a few seconds and the bar stops and then they both continue. Maybe this is normal, I don't really know.
I tried Safe Mode to see if it works, but the result is the same.
I also opened the Device Manager and checked if there's an update, but there's none.
I tried System Restore too, but it didn't work.
Somehow, I think the problem is with the driver because the orange light appears when I click the eject button, but I don't know anything about DVD players, so I'm not sure about anything.
I really don't want to reinstall Windows because firstly, the process of first backing up everything, then waiting for it to reinstall and then get everything on there again (and installing the millions of programs I'm using again) is just stupid, takes to long and it usually doesn't solve problems anyway. Reinstalling is one of my last options, together with taking it to the repair people. Right now, I really need my laptop every day so if there's no solution, it might take a while before I find time to take it there. Thanks to everyone that replies.

I think I found out something new today. I had the same problem again, but the DVD player wouldn't work even after I restarted several times and went into Safe Mode. Accidentally, though, when I wanted to restart the last time, I clicked the hibernate button and when I turned the laptop on again, the DVD player worked. It might just be a coincidence, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
