Encoded dvd sticks at sane pint after burning

I am having this annoying problem with a wedding film we are producing. After exporting my qt file as prores I take the file into compressor and use the 90 min preset and create the DVD in DVD studio pro with chapter marks and menus at this point all is fine in simulation mode, it plays fine but when i burn a DVD it sticks at the same point every time. i have tried editing the film and taking out a section of footage bit it still sticks when i burn a dvd and play in my mac or on my tv!
Could it be in the audio track or something in the video timecode?
Note i: create DVDs every week like this same workflow with no problem and even burned the DVD on another mac but same problem

Hi Allister
This may be stuff you have already tried but just in case ...you could try this if you have time.. trash (delete) all the project render files and do a full re-render .. then a new export as quicktime mov using current settings, I would then try it at each stage by burning it to DVD from inside Compressor and then if that works do all the DVD Pro fancy bits when I know it is working .. I say all this as once ..I had a sequence which stuck on any DVD player including the MAC, I had what I believe to be corrupt render files because when I trashed them and re-rendered it and created a new quickTime mov using current settings, it all worked fine ..

  • Encore DVD's are shakey/jumpy after burning...

    I'm very new to video but I've learned just enough to be dangerous, so any constructive help is appreciated.
    Projects were shot on a Nikon D300s and D90(720p, 24fps), cut up in Premiere Pro CS5 and Dynamic Linked into Encore.  Using the standard NTSC, DVD defaults (didn't touch a thing), the final disc is shakey/jumpy.  Looks like flickering, but the image on screen is actually changing position in what looks like the vertical plane.
    Here's where it gets weird.  .ncor files from my old CS4 system still burn beautifully.  If I open the old project in PPro CS5 and DL to Encore, shakey discs.  In the Encore Preview the project plays perfectly.
    An observation I had was that the problematic timelines in Encore all had what looked like horizontal banding in the timeline "thumbnails".  The previous version .ncor files have clean thumbnails.
    And if it helps, my little GoPro camera burns just fine.  What could be different between projects in CS4 and CS5?  Is it something that Premiere is doing or Encore?  Since the previews in Encore look good until you burn the disc, I'm thinking Encore is the culprit so far.
    I'm sure I have left out a ton of pertinant details to help you help me, so please fire away.
    Thanks

    Would it be best when using Premiere and Encore, to use Adobe media Encoder and make my video into a file, then bring that file into Encore, or does it not make any difference which way you do it as I've just been putting my timeline straight into Encore when its ready to goto DVD.
    You can do it either way. But if you export, you have one more step to make sure the fields are correct. Your problem, is probably in the Premiere settings, so I would do an export from AME unless you discover you need to.

  • DVD Playing in Fast Foward After Burn

    1. DVD simulates perfectly in DVDSP.
    2. Put it in one dvd player and it's like it's being fast forwarded. Menu, first play, everything. Not a DVD player issue.
    3. Put it in another DVD player and similar thing happens. It fast forwards part of the video and the voice gets off of the video. This is in the first play track.
    Never seen this before and need help. I've done over 20 DVDs in DVDSP so I'm not a newbie.

    It was a piece of video in the First Play that caused the problem. It was encoded at 6.2 MBPS while the main track was 5.0. Not sure if that was why but re-encoding that video fixed it.

  • After burning to dvd, using idvd, movie stops on frame but audio continues

    After creating imovie which works perfectly, and also after trasferring to idvd works perfectly, i have problems when playing back dvd after burning to disc. The movie stops but the audio continues. I altered the clip but same thing happened in next clip after next burn. I don't think its a corrupt clip, but maybe something to do with WHEN it occurs in the movie. Any suggestions? After 4 goes and many hours burning I am stumped!

    Hi Tomma1
    And welcome to apple discussions. It's good you chose to use 16 bit audio for all of your source material. And assuming this is accurate info .... From what I can tell, you are doing nearly everything correctly. However let me ask you a few questions.
    1. Are you using the boot volume (the hard drive where iDvd and Leopard are actually located) to encode your dvd (yes/no)?
    2. More importantly, does the disc image also go out of sync when played thru apple's dvd player app? or does it only happen on the burned dvd-r?
    3. Are you using Verbatim Dvd-R or an alternate brand? if it's the latter, then for troubleshooting purposes while on this forum; please use Verbatim Dvd-R. (it helps us eliminate additional / possible variables). Thereafter feel free to use the media that works best for you and your mac.
    4. Have you tried an alternate encoding setting other than pro quality setting? and do you get the same results?

  • Problem: DVD won't loop after burning in iDVD '08

    I need help.
    I made a slideshow in Keynote '08 and sent it directly to iDVD (iLife'08) for burning. I wanted to burn it to DVD and have it show continuously (loop) at a kiosk.
    I selected the presentation and had set iDVD (Advance Menu) to "Loop". The loop icon showed up on the "map menu" for the selected presentation.
    As I read in other forums, I also set the "button" for Play Movie with a TRANSITION.
    After burning and playing it on two DVD players, the DVD won't automatically loop. It just freezes after it completes one play.
    I also did the "REPEAT" button on the DVD Player Remote and still won't loop.
    I went back to iDVD and removed the Loop option and burned DVD. I was hoping that I can play it back with just setting the DVD player itself to REPEAT disc. Again, the DVD won't repeat or loop.
    I also converted the keynote presentation to quicktime first then moved it to iDVD for conversion and burning to DVD. The results are the same above.
    I need to know if there is a step I am missing or a procedure not followed properly.
    Thanks in advance!

    Check these instructions from iDVD Help to see if you missed anything.
    +_Here are ways to turn looping on or off_:+
    +Double-click a slideshow button on the DVD menu to open the slideshow editor. Click the Settings button and select the “Loop slideshow” checkbox.+
    +Select a slideshow icon in map view, and then press Command-I to open the Slideshow Info window. Select the “Loop Slideshow” checkbox, and then close the window.+
    +Click a movie or slideshow button on the DVD menu, or a movie, slideshow, or autoplay movie icon in map view, to select it, and then choose Advanced > Loop Movie or Loop Slideshow.+
    +When looping is turned on, a checkmark appears next to the command in the menu. To turn off looping, select it again to remove the checkmark.+
    +To turn looping off for a background movie on a menu, open the Menu Info window. With your pointer over the menu (but with no buttons or text items selected), press Command-I. Move the Loop Duration slider to zero.+
    If you have followed these directions and are still having the same problem, give this basic remedy a try. Quit iDVD and delete your iDVD preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.idvd.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iDVD; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
    Do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
    If the problem persists, do the following for troubleshooting purposes. While working on your project in iDVD, create a disk image. Go to File>Save as disk image. This will create a file that can be viewed on your computer's DVD player. You will be able to see just how your project will work when viewed on a regular DVD player. You will be able to catch errors and correct them before burning and possibly wasting a disk. If the disk image plays correctly, then you know that the encoding is being done correctly. This would point to problems with the burn process. If there are problems with the disk image, then the issue is with encoding.
    I hope this helps.

    After burning a successful DVD in iDVD out of FCPX, how can I see the settings it used?
    So I finally burned a DVD out of a Apple Pro Res file into iDVD in PAL format. My question now is how can I find out what the exact burn properties were so that I can apply the same burn properties to a project in Compressor 4?
    Is it possible to see what iDVD did?

    I don't know any way you can interrogate iDVD to reveal settings to the extent that you can in a Compressor project. What you could do is open up the show's VOB in MPEG STreamclip, go to File and Reveal Stream Information; that will at least give you some rudimentary info like average bit rate. Perhaps someone, with more iDVD experience, can chime in here.
    The broader question is why use Compressor at all if your current workflow is doing the job to your satisfaction?
    The value of Compressor is that it gives you control over the many parameters that affect size quality.  and playability. The Compressor presets can give you a starting point for DVD delivery, Web, etc. From those presets, people typically experiment by adjusting the parameters until they get the desired results for their specific show. It's a little bit science and a little bit art. After experimenting, you may be able to get slightly better quality for the project you've successfully burned in iDVD by using Compressor and something likeToast…or maybe not.
    Good luck.

  • No audio on dvd after burning

    iMac 10.6.1./iDvd 7.1.2. I can see that there are 2 files in my movies folder, 1 for audio and the other for video. The video is there in its folder but there is no audio in the folder, it's empyt. 1 1/2 hours of writing from iMovie to iDvd then another 3 hours writing to a dvd disc to have no audio with the video *****, hellllppp please

    Once you have the project as you want it in iDVD save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good and you can then burn to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed available to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatium, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • After burning 3 dvds, got error 0x80020022 on MATSHITA DVD-R   UJ-845 Drive. Used 1x speed. iMac G5 PowerPC

    MATSHITA DVD-R   UJ-845:
    Error message: 0x80020022.
    Got this after burning 5 other discs. Two of which didn't burn and ejected. When I inserted them again, they did not appear on desktop. Had to use Disc Utility to eject them.   After those two issues, this message showed up when re-trying the burn process.
    What must I do to get this drive to burn the discs?

    Thanks for the info.  I have another question pertaining to your answer:  "What speed would be best to use so the drive doesn't become HOT--- lowest speed for a longer period of time. . . OR . . . at a faster speed for a lesser time?
    Also, I tried using it half-hour later and got same result.  I then waited 1 hour longer and it worked then.
    Thanks to all letting me know to cool it off!

  • Video hangs after burning on a DVD

    Hi,
    after burning a project with menus and several chapters, I notice the DVD is hanging after a few chapters. My DVD burner itself should be ok, I got no hardware failures and it's working fine with Nero Burning ROM. Any suggestions??
    Tx a lot,
    Kristof

    You used iTunes to burn the CD? If so, it should work. The question is, did you choose "back up to disc," or did you create a playlist, and choose "Burn playlist to disc?"
    If you do it the first way, you are just saving the actual music files (not in CD format) to a CD.
    If you create playlist and burn playlist to disc, you are making an actual Audio CD that will play in any CD player.
    If you are already using the second method, are you using a CD-R, or CD-RW? Some players have problems w/RW's.
    Btw, iTunes songs are not MP3 format, so I don't think you'll be able to find a "converter." LOL

  • Found grease on disks after burning DVDs or CDs

    I own a brand new iMAC G5. After burning couple DVDs using the super drive, I found some grease spots on some of the disks. The grease spots had caused the DVDs unusable/unreadable anymore.
    I called AppleCare, they said they will replace my drive.
    Grease in a drive! This is weird. Has anyone experienced it before?
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   2.0GHz, 1G RAM, Bluetooth2.0, 250G HD

    Darth, welcome to the discussions.
    As with anything that is MASS PRODUCED this can happen,
    I think this is the 2nd time I have seen this issue in 2 years.
    Apple said they will fix it so there is not a problem.

  • DVD will not pause after burning

    The DVD I create with iDVD will not pause after burning. I've tried various DVD players with the same result. Everything else about the disc seems fine. I'm using a DVD-R disc, with iDVD 5.0.1
    I have burned DVDs in the past without this problem! I seriously need advice, thanks!!

    Hello artisshiny,
    if you feel that you have performance issues on your Mac in general (and iDVD in particular), try to do the following:
    1. find the file com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it, then empty the trash.
    2. free up some space on your hard drive (20 GB should be free when working with iDVD)
    3. repair permissions with Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) and reboot.
    4. run software like DiskWarrior or Macjanitor
    hope this helps

  • Unsupported format after burning on DVD Player

    I burn many discs on iDVD and always do it the same way - I have found that a few of the discs are unable to be read on my player after burning.  So some work fine and some cannot be read in the Player.  I get the message "Unsupported Format" on my player.  Any suggestions?

    If iDVD didn't have sound before you authored the DVD, you won't have sound after the DVD is created.  Did you create a self contained Quicktime movie out of your editing system before importing into iDVD?  Did the Quicktime file have sound in the Quicktime Player?  Here's an article I wrote about transferring your HD footage to DVD.  You need to break the process up into steps to avoid problems.

  • IMac shuts down after burning DVDs.

    Brand new aluminum iMac 20" with Tiger 10.4.11 installed. We've found that after burning a DVD(-R) the iMac just shuts off - bizarre.
    Any ideas why this is happening? Fix?

    That's interesting, so it's not a heat problem then. So do just a few of us have defective iMac burners, or does everyone? Friends of mine who use Mac laptops for processing similar files to me, have not had this problem of mid-burn shutdown, nor has a friend in UK on a pre-Intel iMac and 10.4.9. I tried several different brands of CDs and DVDs including TDK, Verbatim Data-life Plus (usually very reliable), and DataStream. All failed equally. So far the external LaCie burner is working well and is a work around for the problem. Why was it that only the aif files failed for me? You would think if there was a Mac problem then we would all have the same thing happening?

  • I made a DVD with photo's and music. On my Powerbook G4 he plays perfect. But after burning the project on my LaCie d2 lightscribe and show the project on my TV than after 10 min. the music stops for a few seconds.

    I made a DVD with photo's and music. On my Powerbook G4 he plays perfect. But after burning the project on my LaCie d2 lightscribe and showing the project on my TV than: after 10 min. the music stops for a few seconds. On the screen of the DVD-player I can see that after the word 'play' the clock starts again with counting the time. I tried everything: * burning slow. * all programs stopped, except iDVD. * all other apparature uncoupled. Is this a problem of my iDVD-program or my LaCie burner?

    mishmumken is correct about the 99 slides.  There's an 99 chapter limit in each slideshow for DVDs and each photo is considered a chapter.  iDVD gets around that by renaming slide 100 back to 1 and goes on. 
    The pause can be minimized (but not eliminated) by burning to disk at the slowest speed available: usually 4x or 2x.  Save the project to disk (File ➙ Save to Disk menu option) and play the disk image with DVD player to check out the transition at 99 and 198.  Then burn the disk image to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed possible.  Also use top quality media: Verbatium, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
