Free dvd maker is better than encore cs4

Hi Forum,
OS: Win Vista Ultimate 64bit
Encore CS4
Windows DVD Maker
I have shot some footage and have they in dvd pal format.
I was able to create a motion menu, slide show and advd with encore cs4. i could play the dvd on pcs and normal dvd player on the tv.
But: Slide Show and all Movies are flickering. Menu also.
Than i tryed Windows DVD Maker (Free when you have Ultimate Vista).
I used there absolutely the same videos and photos. Result: Slide show and video quality was perfect and without flickering problems.
I spent a lot of money and o can not believe that this free tool dvd maker is better than encore cs4.
so please help me to solve this problem.
I really don't know what i could try.
Thank you and see you soon.

Hi,
Could somebody tell me which settings i should set on premiere cs4 to export in a good format to import to encore cs4?
Maybe i could solve my problem on using the right settings on exporting a video from premiere cs4.
Thank you

  • PP CS5/5.5 chroma key better than AE CS4?

    Hi everyone.
    I think I read somewhere a while back that the chroma key in PP CS5/5.5 is better than AE CS4's Keylight. In fact, the PP effect may be an improved Keylight , but I can't recall this for certain.
    Can anyone verify this?
    Thx.
    Paul

    I've keyed with the same camera for a couple of years now, and it's got a pretty narrow band in which greens are easily keyed. DVCPRO HD is not well-reputed for its handling of greens, or at least as a result of it's use with an older 1/3" sensor. I've gotten the best results with the exposure on the screen at about 50-60IRE, but that's just in my scenarios. Most of my material is recorded to P2 cards (though I did one long shoot with OnLo and a green screen), but the footage encoding is the same--it's all DVCPRO HD. I've got some stuff that I did recently that keyed like buttah with Ultra--I literally had a solid key in 20 seconds with just picking the background color and tweaking a couple parameters.
    So, since "brightly lit" and "lower lit" are subjective terms, it's hard to give you any specific recommendations other than to try to stick in a particular exposure range. All I know is that when your green screen footage is evenly lit and at mid-range exposure, Ultra does a pretty good job with minimal effort.

  • DVD looks different/better than imovie

    I did a quick search in this forum to see if this has been discussed before. I'm sorry if it has; I'm new in this forum. Anyways...
    I'm trying to edit video that I dumped from a video camera and DVD onto my powerbook g4 1.33ghz w/1.25ghz ram. I'm not having any real issues with the editing process itself. My problem is that, when I burn a DVD of the movie (using iDVD) it looks entirely different than on the laptop. I've even tried using a secondary screen to do the editing on (regular computer monitor). The secondary computer monitor looks the same as the laptop. But, again the burned DVD looks totally different. On the computer, it looks kinda like it's in dropframe but I'm using 29 (or whatever that higher setting is). But when I burn the DVD and play it in a regular DVD player, it looks much crisper, smoother and less pixelated. Will it help if I max out my laptop RAM to 2ghz or is this just a problem inherent in the preinstalled 64MB video card? If it's the video card, I'm thinking about upgrading to a macbook. Will a macbook video card be powerful enough not to have this problem? Any help/suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

    definitively YES.
    as widely known, iM08/09 has this little *skip-field problem* with interlaced sources (miniDV imports are always i, independently, what camcorder marketing says), plus a gamma-prob.
    details on our website:
    http://sites.google.com/site/theimovieoutputproject/
    you avoid these probs by using a 'real' dv-editor, as iMHD6 or FCE ..
    sidenote: settings in the editor, on transfer and iDVD have to be correct for best quality. as: sequence settings 'fit' to camcorder, NO 'Export using QT conversion', iDVD is set to same standard as camcorder (PAL vs NTSC); project length <60min (=for highest bitrate in iDVD).

  • DVD Audio not synching in Encore CS4

    Problem: I'm creating NTSC dvd in Encore CS4 and audio starts out fine but begins "skipping" around after about 2 minutes. Project looks and sounds fine in PPCS4. The project is 3hrs and 40 min. long. I'm using Verbatim DVD-R's and have been using them for over 2 yrs. - Windows platform. Write speed is 18x. There are no transitions or edits at the point at where audio starts "skipping" or "jumping" and the video shows a man speaking in front of an audience and continues showing him, then all of a sudden the audio skips.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    The 2-DVD set is probably a good idea. I have been faced with similar. I have one client whose player will NOT play any burned DL discs. For him, I need to break things down to multiple disc sets.
    Even with limited motion Assets, I try to limit DVD-5's to 120 mins. of Duration. If I go much over that (just a rule of thumb, based on my tests of quality), I'm reaching for the DVD-9's, or looking to find logical disc breaks in PrPro.
    Good luck,

  • Is firefox adblock plus make it better than safari?

    hi
    just quick shoot question.
    i 99% uses firefox browser with add on called adblock plus 2.03
    it never shows advertisement like the mackeeper that so frequently harrased me when i used safari. this made me scared of unintended clicking on my part.
    are there similar thing on safari?
    i just dont feel secure with safari, because once i opened it, and in few minutes pop up ads and mackeeper coming out of nowhere....
    hope ur not mad at me for favoring firefox. but i really think if safari has same adblock i would move back, as i feel it is wierd that firefox could do better than mac... its nigh impossible... ?

    You're certainly free to use Firefox if that works for you. There are similar add-on web blockers for Safari, including a version of AdBlock:
    http://code.google.com/p/adblockforchrome/
    Personally I don't like browser-specific blocking add-ons since they can break with any browser upgrade, so I use GlimmerBlocker. It's a stand-alone ad blocker (it works sort of like a web proxy system) and hence works with any browser you run on your system, so you don't need an ad blocking add-on for each browser.
    But if Firefox works for you, by all means use it. Many people do.

  • What makes iPad better than other tablets

    Hi there! i am planning on buying the new iPad 2 but i want to ask and talk about what makes the iPad better than other tablets particularly Android.
    Since its first outing the iPad has come from strenght to strenght with featrures and apps only a smartphone (or even a PC) could dream of.
    But in the past few months there has been a tsunami of Android tablets vuying to topple Apple's device. with better features like:
    1. Divx support (in some devices)
    2. better front & rear cameras
    3. better multitasking and customisation options
    4. Android being an "open" platform
    5. video chat with ANY similar device (and not confined to only Android)
    6. better bluetooth option and features (like sending files to ANY device and not confined to only Android)
    7. full DLNA support (in almost all devices now)
    ......and the list goes on.
    sure it's not a contest and sure some makers have "copied" features from Apple and made it into their own but i still love Apple devices not because of the lack of features but because the technology really works and the OS just flows really smooth.
    so, i want to ask you guys....what makes Apple devices such as the iPad 2 special, unique, desirable and better in many ways than an Android device?
    what makes the iPad an investment for me and my family?

    Don't get me wrong i am fan of Android but i also am a fan of the iPad 2. but i still can't help with the things the device is lacking and lagging behind with with the Android devices.
    sure, the iPad is not a Xoom or a Transformer or a Galaxy tab.
    sure, the iOS is fluid and smooth and it just works
    sure, Honeycomb 3.0 is full of bugs and it freezes more often than not (i heard)
    sure, the Apps Store is still miles away when it comes to apps, games, etc. (although i heard it will be overtaken by the Android Markt by this year in terms of sheer numbers but also quality apps designed/dedicated for tablets by next year)
    the Android Amrket might not have "rogue" apps or "stealing user data" but doesn't Apple products have that and do that as well?
    sure the iPad doesn't support Flash but even though its a battery hogging software you still enjoy the "full" web (the way it was meant to be viewed) on an Android tablet.
    sure, the iPad does have a below 1-megapixel camera which is jurassic really.
    but it still doesn't hide the facts like what i mentioned on my previous emails.
    for the cheapest wifi-only iPad 2 you pay GBP399
    the equivalent 7" Galaxy Tab (which came out months before the ipad 2) you pay GBP399 and that's with 3G, better front & rear facing camera, full Divx capability (without the need of an app), full DLNA capability (without the need of a separate device or server), better and more "open" bluetooth, full Flash compatibility amongst others.
    basing on my example above can someone tell me without being biased...what makes the iPad 2 better in many ways?

  • What makes Firefox better than Chrome?

    Just curious.

    Please see this article: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/central/
    In addition, you can reconfigure the layout to your own taste. For example, you can move the tabs to below the location bar where you normally type in a web address if you want to. Chrome's layout however is set in stone.
    Firefox also has an abundance of Add-ons which you can use to enhance your browsing experience. Here's the database: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/bookmarks/

  • What makes JUnit better than regular assert statements?

    I was reading up a little on JUnit and it seems like it's purpose is to check conditions to see if there true and shoot out an error if they're not. Unless I'm missing something doesn't assert do the same thing?

    I actually had them seperate but I combined them for the post. I create a seperate method identical to the first except Gates is misspelled in the first and Bill in the second and I called them back to back and it still shoots out only one error:
    package testproject;
    import java.util.StringTokenizer;
    import junit.framework.TestCase;
    public class Main {
        public Main() {
            TestCsvParser test = new TestCsvParser();

            test.testParseSimpleLine2();
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            new Main();
        class TestCsvParser extends TestCase {

  • Encore CS4's Slideshow component= WORTHLESS

    Hi,
    When I create slideshows in Adobe Encore CS4 and then build them, they look "fine" when played on a computer DVD player.
    However, when playing the authored DVD on an actual DVD player attached to a TV, the playback is cropped, images come out extremely dark, and each song flickers at the start of the slideshow.
    I've done a lot more testing of building slideshows in Adobe Encore CS4, before I came to this realization:
    ADOBE ENCORE CS4 IS FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR WAYS OFF FROM BEING READY FOR PRODUCTION USE FOR SLIDESHOWS. DO NOT USE ADOBE ENCORE CS4 FOR ANY SORT OF ACTUAL PRODUCTION USE FOR SLIDESHOWS.
    I am extremely frustrated how obvious that there was absolutely no quality assurance testing with Adobe Encore CS4. When you use Adobe Encore CS4, the whole feel of using the software is that it was totally rushed out the door at about 55% complete.
    My top complaints:
    -When importing multiple images to the Encore library, occasional images do not get imported at all(WTF???????????????)
    -images that are imported to the Encore library occasionally LOSE THEIR ORIGINAL ASSET when saving, closing, then re-opening a project.
    -Encore CS4 slows down literally, exponentially, as you add a lot of images to the library. At about 500 images of about 3-4 megs each, my Core 2 Quad with 6 gigs of ram slows to a crawl.
    -when in the slow state, Adobe Encore CS4 crashes randomly (and this slow state is when most of the slideshow editing needs to get done)
    -authored playback is cropped
    -authored playback comes out extremely dark on DVD players
    -99 slide limit, which is overcome by dividing the slideshow into two slideshows, but.. there is a long and awkward pause when shifting between two slideshows during playback
    Using Adobe Encore CS4 for slideshows is gauranteed to leave an extremely bad user experience and some loss of respect for Adobe.
    I have no choice but to learn what other DVD slideshow building software is out there. So far, Nero, and even Windows Movie Maker, which comes free with windows seems better than Adobe Encore CS4, in terms of building slideshows.

    I've been using Adobe Encore CS4 to author Blu-Ray discs with slideshows on my iMac.  I've found a solution that seems to work well.  But I don't use the Encore slideshow editor for this purpose.
    When I import high-quality 16:9 JPEG photos directly into Encore and build a slideshow using the Encore slideshow editor, the results are terrible when viewed on a big-screen HDTV connected to a Blu-Ray player.  The colors seem off, and the resolution is horrible.  There are all sorts of jagged edges and other artifacts.  A slideshow on a standard-definition DVD built using iPhoto and iDVD looks much better than a "high-definition" Blu-Ray slideshow built using the Encore CS4 slideshow feature.
    A better solution is to simply build the slideshow in iPhoto, cropping the individual photos to 16:9 (or using the 16:9 setting on your digital still camera, if it has one), and export the iPhoto slideshow as a high-definition QuickTime movie file (*.mov).  You will have to play around a bit to find the option in iPhoto that allows custom export settings, but once you find it you can encode the entire slideshow using the H.264 codec with full 1920 x 1080 resolution.  Then you can import the resulting *.mov file into Encore as an asset, then create a timeline for it.  You basically treat it like a movie in Encore.  The final result looks great on my 1080p TV.  Breathtaking, in fact.
    Encore CS4 for Mac seems to have lots of bugs in it.  For example, I just downloaded the latest update yesterday (I think it was 4.0.1).  Now, whenever I try to build a Blu-Ray project, I get an error message, no matter what I do.  Even if I start a new project from scratch.  So I had to use Apple Time Machine to restore the previous version of Encore (4.0.0.258), which works fine.
    Another bug is that you can't change the title of an HD menu in Encore.  Encore has a very limited number of HD menus.  If you want to change the title of an HD menu from the generic one provided ("Our Travel Diaries", for example) to your own title ("Our 2009 Summer Vacation", for example), you can't do it in Encore.  Well, maybe YOU can.  But I can't figure out how to do it.  So I export the menu to Photoshop Elements, change the text there, and re-import it into Encore.  You can change the titles of buttons directly in Encore.  But not the actual menu title.
    Also, Encore has caused trouble for me when I try burning Blu-Ray rewritable discs.  So I simply use Encore to create a *.iso image file, then burn it using Roxio Toast 10 Titanium.
    Anyway, with these various workarounds, I'm finally able to create high-quality Blu-Ray discs with movies and slideshows that look great on my 60-inch Sony SXRD 1080p TV.
    It's a shame that somebody doesn't produce a simple interlocking suite of consumer-grade Mac-compatible tools that can be used for the entire HD workflow from camera to Blu-Ray disc, similar to the way in which iMovie, iPhoto, and iDVD work for standard-definition DVDs.  Apparently, the latest version of Adobe Premiere Elements for Windows does this sort of thing.  But there's nothing equivalent for the Mac.  And Apple still seems to be dragging its feet with regard to Blu-Ray.
    Some people have expressed the opinion that it's OK for Encore CS4 to include a slideshow editor that's essentially useless.  I tend to disagree.  Any significant feature that gets added to a piece of software and that's advertised as being useful ought to work at least reasonably well.  But then my background is in the hardware industry, not the software industry.  In hardware, even a minor glitch can cost a company millions of dollars in lost revenue, recalls, loss of customer confidence, etc.  Software designers, by contrast, seem to be able to get away with a degree of sloppiness that would quickly bankrupt a company in the hardware world.
    However, I'm at least grateful that by using Encore CS4 in conjunction with Final Cut Pro, Compressor, iPhoto, Photoshop Elements, and Toast, I'm able to produce a very nice Blu-Ray disc that provides jaw-dropping picture and sound quality for movies and slideshows.

  • How to break layer(manually) in encore cs4

    Hi,
    My  project is ready to burn and wish to know the procedure of how we can  break layer manually in encore cs4 while burning  8.54 gb dual layer  dvd.
    Thanks in advance.
    Vinay

    When you go to Burn to Disc, you should have a dialog screen, where you can choose "Set Layer Break Automatically," or "Set Layer Break Manually." The exact syntax might be different, but you will get the picture.
    Now, some with later versions (do not recall if CS4 was in this group), have encountered issues, where the manual Layer Breaks were disregarded. There are a few posts on this, and one was initiated by Jim Simon. You might want to look over those threads.
    Also, many use the free ImgBurn to do the physical Burn, and like its manual Layer Break setting function better than Encore.
    Personally, I have never had a Layer Break issue, but much of that probably stems from my particular Projects, and perhaps a bit of luck.
    Good luck to you,
    Hunt

  • Why is Java better than c#. most people say c# is better

    I have entered forums and end up seeing informations on c# being better than java. Pls can any body tell me what makes java better than c#. This days every one i know is now going c#. They are discoraging me to also go c#.
    i am quite con fussed. The only thing that keeps me to JAVA is platform independence.

    Well, I suppose you can search Google for 'C# vs java' and read an article such as
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Java_and_C_Sharp.
    However arguing which is better is best left as an exercise for developers with a lot of experience in both languages rather than those just starting out (If your just starting out, you will not use the advanced features one has over the other).
    I think the market will be evenly split between both languages for quite some time. Ideally, as a professional developer you should know both well so you are more employable. For Java, I suggest getting familiar with The Eclipse IDE since its used by the bulk of Java developers. For C#, I suggest you install Visual Studio Express because its used by the bulk of C# developers (and the express version is free).
    I suggest you first learn one or the other very very well and good coding practices before learning the other language to avoid mixing the two somewhat different coding styles.
    I suggest learning whichever language your friends are using assuming you communicate with them about programming often (so you can help each other). If instead your on your own, I suggest you learn Java. I think you will have an easier time picking up the Object Oriented philosophy than C# because in my opinion Java is more low level coding and C# is more high level coding (ie, the advanced features it can do a lot for you). You should have a good handle on the low level concepts first. In may opinion, once you know Java well, C# is a lot easier to pick up since they are both object oriented and are very similar object oriented languages.

  • Why is LR5 catalog better than PSE 12 Organiser?

    Hi/
      I have started using a trial version of LR5.
    I have been a regular user of various versions of PSE over the years.
    Generally, I have been happy with the organiser, & have various tags nested in each-other.
    I have never had a problem with it being unstable, & can normally find what I am looking for,
    (provided that I have correctly tagged it in the first place :-)
    My first impression of the LR5 catalogue is that it is not as intuitive.
    I have searched on-line for how to set-up the catalogue & much of the discussion relates to how many catalogues to have. - I've already made that decision - Just the one:
    So?  What features am I missing in the LR5 catalogue that make it better than the Elements Organiser?
    What do you think?

    I am also a happy user of the Organizer, but I also use LR 4.4.
    What I find interesting in LR:
    - huge amount of possible customization and options (if you need them...)
    - Ability to manage jpegs just as raws (the organizer does not let you open jpegs in acr, )
    - Smart ways to manage variants without copying files (virtual copies)
    - More advanced metadata management
    - possibility to merge catalogs
    - Much more support by Adobe and user forums
    - More advanced options in output in the latest versions
    What can be debated is the difficulty of the learning curve as well as the 'robustness' of the software. The organizer was plagued with many bugs (it was already there many years before LR.) The problem is that having many more options makes LR much more complex. For instance the database has three times the number of tables. The result is that the LR forums are full of complaints about bugs or missing features... just because it is too rich and tries to satisfy everybody's needs.
    Many cases of problems with the Organizer are related to the backup function which backs up both pictures and catalogs. Lr only backup catalogs. Backing up pictures is your responsability. If you have problems, it's not LR's fault, it's yours .
    I can't find a post I made to show the possible advantages of the organizer, but that was just for the fun.

  • Encore CS5.5 Libraries - same, better than CS4?

    Hey folks - just wondering whether Encore CS5.5 includes all the libraries we got in CS4. I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit machine and I'm running Prod Premium CS4 now. I just got the CS5.5 Prod Prem in the mail yesterday but I haven't installed it yet. My plan is to uninstall CS4 first since I don't anticipate needing it. But I am wondering about the Encore libraries.
    Is there any reason to keep the CS4 libraries installed?
    I ask because CS4 Prod Prem came with 4 disks + a Content Disk + a Learning Disk. CS5.5 includes just 4 disks total.
    guess I'll find out when I install CS5.5, but I plan to uninstall CS4 first. So I wondered whether I should keep anything from CS4 on my machine.
    Thanks for any light you can shed on this.
    And Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!

    I installed CS5 only on my new machine when I made the double upgrade (PC and CS5). I left CS3 and CS4 installed on my other machine. I find it handy, but primarily for testing questions other users have. I always use CS5 for work.
    There have been a few issues where a bug is introduced and users say it helped to have CS4 as a workaround.
    But if I were doing what you are doing today for a production only machine, I wouldn't bother to uninstall CS4. But I might pick that moment for a fresh install of Windows, in which case I would not install CS4.
    I think Adobe had a strong recommendation not to install CS4 over CS5 (which you are not planning).
    Once upon a time, the Encore libraries were apparently "extra" and installed from a disk called "functional content." The CS4 and CS5 functional content disk is NOT such content. When you install from disks, you automatically install the Encore libraries.
    I can't compare CS4 and CS5 directly, but the Encore Library folder for CS3, CS4, and CS5 has files/folders respectively 1316/20, 1318/20, 1316/20. A "quick contents" compare in winmerge between CS3 and CS4 had only 4 differences (for example, CS3 used a mov and CS4 m2v for one of the motion menus).
    The interesting (non)difference is that they do not appear to ahve changed the par of the menus form the pre-CS4 days. If you open any of the menus directly in Photoshop, it says the par appears to be incorrect and asks if you want to correct it. (I say no.) If you use "edit in photoshop" from Encore, CS4 and CS5 does not ask (it is obviously  making the correction, probably upon import to Encore). Encore CS3 makes no such adjustment.
    What this means to me is the the Encore library menus are the old menus with the old pars. It doesn't matter much; there would be only a bit of distortion. I haven't tested to see if there is any. But for me it is evidence that the menus in CS5 are the same ones from at least CS3.
    That said, you can simply copy the library folder to another location until you determine whether you need it.

  • Encore CS4, Windows 7 (beta) + Blu-ray = blam!

    Anyone else testing on Windows 7 (beta) seen this? On Win7, I've had no issues with Encore through 3 DVD projects, and rendering with After Effects to both MPEG-2 (DVD) and H-264 (Blu-ray 1280x720) has been fast (at least 3x faster than Encore on Vista), but the instant I choose "Blu-ray" from the Build menu, or import a H.264 asset, everything in Windows 7 freezes and I have to do a hard reboot. It's the only Windows 7 major issue I've had so far.
    I've been able to reliable replicate this at least 4 times - start Windows 7 64-bit, open Encore CS4 (fully updated), create a brand new Blu-ray project, and (since the first screen I see says "Build DVD") change the Build drop-down to DVD and - oops, the mouse is frozen, the CPU's pretty much stopped... no, it IS stopped or in some loop or something, but Windows is frozen.
    I'm not expecting Adobe support, but hopefully they can remedy this in the future and - a warning - close all your apps before you try this on your machine. If I switch over to Vista Ultimate 32-bit, I can do the whole blu-ray project through to burning with no errors (I still prefer to transcode in AE, Encore is a slug), but I can't get past that drop-down on Windows 7. Odd.
    My specs: 8GB RAM, Q6600, oodles of HD space, CS4 Master Collection, all latest revs and patches.

    You need to do following things to get it working -
    1.     Install the new pxhlp driver from http://kb.roxio.com/search.aspx?URL=/content/kb/General%20Information/000070GN&PARAMS=
    2.      Turn off the sleep mode off in Windows 7.
              Steps to turn off the sleep mode -             
    1. Go to control panel
    2. Click on system and security
    3. click on power option
    4. click on change plan settings for Power saver
    5. Set the "Put the computer to sleep" value to "Never"

  • Encore CS4 creating multiple DVDs

    Windows 7
    Ram 6GB
    Encore CS4
    Gentlemen !
    I have a footage , which is about 7 hours long(Video ntsc) , besides cutting the footage into few pieces, is there any way I can create a set of DVDs, like a let's say DVD1 through 3 or 4
    Here is what I do
    I import my 7 hours footage , then I create a "TimeLine" on the time line I set chapter marks and I assign each chapter mark to a scene on the main page.
    Before I used to do the same thing with 2 or 3 hours footage and it would work fine , but now that my footage is too long , its says all videos cannot fit on one disk , so
    Is there any way I can put them on several DVDs ?
    Thanks.

    Create the separate pieces in Premiere Pro, and export as MPEG2-DVD, ready for Encore to put on disk.
    Encore does not do a good job when you put a very large timeline in and crop it, etc.
    4 disks will make it easier to break them up in terms of content. You are looking to keep the time under 2 hours per disk max. You can make multiple timelines per disk if that suits the material better.
    You'll need to calculate the bitrate to use for the export from PR. If you calculate the fullest disk, you can use those settings for all of them. But you can calculate it for each disk, and get somewhat better quality on the disks that are not as full.
