Having trouble making DVD

I made this great movie in Imovie. It was made of photos and video run together of a trip I took recently. I had trouble figuring out how to make a DVD of the project. Finally I imported it to IDVD. The photos and music came through but the video that was in Imovie did not. Is there and easier way to burn the project to DVD?

The prescribed method for producing DVD's from imovie projects is to export them to the media browser and then open them by clicking on the media button in iDVD.
You may however be experiencing other issues and it may be that the source video you imported into imovie may be incompatible with imovie. What was the compression type of the video files you have used?

[SOLVED] Having trouble making QT apps use GTK theme

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble making QT apps use my GTK theme in openbox.
Some apps seem to work just fine but others don't.
^Such as above, as you can see VLC is working, as is qtconfig, but k9copy and k3b are not.
I've did the suggestions that are listed in the wiki. (http://tinyurl.com/ybhb7yr)
And even rebooted after I did them, still no go.
My .gtkrc-2.0 file simply contains:
gtk-theme-name="Clearlooks_blackblue"
gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango"
Does anyone have any ideas why it's not working with k9copy and k3b/how to fix it?
Thanks.

Yes, but don't they use QT?
And if not, what do they use? lol. And is there anyway to make them use my GTK theme?

im trying to make some changes on our website (oilfiltercrushers.com). Im using DW CC 2014, 8.8, HP Pavion pc. The problems include:trying to move an image farther to the left & also to remove too much vertical space, trying to remove "AAAs tht show up on a webpage table even they don't show on the local file that was put, a webpage that I cant see on the website even though it was put & appears in the remote files folder. Id be happy to pay someone to help me fix these problems. Thanx, Paul ([email protected], 4146514636)

Hi Nancy
Thanx for your response and commenting on our homepage. I wasn't aware of the problems you mentioned. However it has ranked on the first page of Google, etc for 20 years, so that's not my concern at this point.
The 2 most immediate things are getting rid of the A"s showing up on the table on oilfiltercrushers/truck_ofc.aspx and on /defaultnew.aspx , (the intended home page when I get it fixed,) I get a server error highlighting line 293
&nsp;
. Im not sure what to do about that...
I hope you can help me with this. If its more convenient, you can call me at 414-651-4636. I'll pay you for your input.
Paul
I look forward to hearing from you.

I am having trouble making TM work with my new iMac.

I'm having trouble making TM work with my new iMac. I have an external drive, Freeagent GoFlex Drive, that is recognized on the desktop and in the drive utility. Time machine just "spins it's wheels" and doesn't seem to transfer any information. I have run repair disk on both drives and repair permissions. Any ideas how I can make this thing work?

Did you format the HD first. It has to be formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). If you're not sure how to do this please read:

Having tbl making dvd-encore cs4,win 7,64bit

looked on forum for win 7 encore cs4 Win 7 troubles and found 2, turn off power saver and download some Roxie file. Did both but still freezes, not responding and have to end session, one at 12 min left, and now 2 min left. Also can't eject dvd, have to turn off computer. This is a SD dvd, 90 mins total time, the 1st encore project with new i7 computer, --last night it did burn it but the last 10 mins weren't there. Transcode is automatic. Any ideas--I'll see if I can work on this project in my XP computer, never had any tbl with XP....

Thanks for the reply, I will look into your ideas. I don't have screen saver on and no Nero, iTunes was downloaded with Quicktime and I beleive Win7 uses Roxio, I will check these out.
I put the hard drive docking station back on the XP windows quad core computer, the project was edited on this machine.
Encore burned the dvd complete EXCEPT now no sound, only the menu sound. When I play the timeline there's no sound. This seems to happen when I make a change in PPRO and then go back to Encore. I then export the audio from PPRO and bring it into Encore as an asset, drop it on audio 2 and then all is fine. I did that just now and still hear no audio. I've been using Encore for a year and no troubles. Glad I make the SD dvds 1st before the HD so I don't waste blu ray discs.
My win7 computer is a Dell with Win7 Ultimate, 12 GB ram, i7 920 processor, 1TB C drive and I use external drives to edit on in a docking bay with esata cable.

Having trouble making an in app purchase on iPhone, Help?

Having a problem making an in app purchase off a game I have downloaded on my iPhone.
Using my TD VISA DEBIT too make the purchase (basically works as a pre paid visa credit card).
The price of the in app purchase is $19.99, and I've entered in my billing information 100% correctly (have re checked about a dozen times as it kept saying its invalid!).
Now that I've tried to make the purchase around 10 times, a pop up comes up on my phone that reads somewhat along the lines of "Your Payment method was declined, please contact iTunes support to continue your purchase".
Which well.. Brings me here as the 1-800 number that I can call for my area is currently closed!
(And yes, I do have the enough money on the card lol just so that's out there!)
Please help me figure this out, even if there is a way I can make it get billed to my phone bill (ROGERS) then I don't mind doing it that way either. Just want to make this purchase and be done with it!
Thanks.

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

For those of you having trouble Ripping DVD's importing to itunes etc.

I've read quite a few posts about people not being able to rip/convert or upload to itunes, I am one of these people, but managed to figure it out. No one seemed to be able to help me, so here you go guys and gals.
To put DVD's on your ipod video you'll first have to rip them to your computer. I downloaded Handbrake for mac and it works perfectly. Follow these steps and all should be good....
Once you have Handbrake downloaded, which takes round about 5 mins. Load your DVD Moive, tv series etc. Just close the DVD player if it automatically starts.
Open Handbrake, select "Detected Volume" and click open.
Once that's done, then it will take you to the main screen.
Under "Source" select which part of the DVD you want to rip.
If it's a comedy DVD then you'll want to select which episode you want to copy, 1,2,3,4....etc.
Then under "Destination" click "browse" and select where you want the ripped
video to save. I just stick them all in "Moives"
Finally at the bottom click "Picture settings" which is where some people may be having problems. When you click that, you'll see a preview screen of the DVD, and it will be quite large. On the Right reduce the size right down to 256, and you'll see the picture size is pretty much set for the size of an ipod screen.
Click close, and then hit "Rip"
Once completed as it does take a bit of time. Close Handbrake and load Itunes, click "Videos" on the left. Then "File" and click "Add to library" and you can add your copied video depending on where you've saved it
And that's pretty much it for copying DVD's
For other files such as MPEG's use Isquint, it's tops and easy.
All done

How can I change my file extension from m4p to something else? I have had no success being able to play or burn my purchased music. I keep getting error 2122. If I can change the format I should be able to move it to another player or at least burn it in Nero. Thanks.

Having trouble with DVD Video files. Please Help! :)

Hi I recently got a film DVD I wanted to take a clip off. However although I can watch the section I want in Windows Media Player, when I import the film into Premiere - some of it is missing! there are 4 files '4-1',4-2','4-3',4-4' which make up the movie. I can load them all in but 4-3 is missing the last 15-20 minutes, even though I know its there - cos this file is the same size as the previous one which is full length. Does anyone know why this would be? The DVD is unencrypted.
Please help - its quite annoying that the small section of film I want is the bit that won't appear! Thank you very much
Rich

Based on this one line:
The DVD is unencrypted.
I was assuming that it was not protected. However, as you point out, some aspects might be, and the OP might not be completely aware of this.
If there is protection, I strongly urge anyone to respect that, regardless of their intended use of the material. Copy protection is there for a very good reason. Regardless of what one might be able to do, they should be 100% ethical, and honor any/all copy protection. This is true for material from a videographer, or from a commercial studio. Should you need to use the material in such a DVD-Video, you should contact the author to get first permission, and then the original source material, that has not undergone the MPEG-2 compression to DVD-Video.
Again, I assume that the OP knows that this is NOT an issue, and will not figure into the problem. In that case, all above does NOT apply in this case, but some other reader might make note of it.
Good luck,
Hunt

Having trouble burning DVD-R DL... can you help?

Hello, again, folks.
People have been so nice to me here since I got my new MacBook Pro (late 2011) and am now running Lion (something I couldn't do with my old MacBook Pro (early 2006). So here's a new problem and I hope there will be some kind folks who will help me with a solution.
Since 2002 I have been burning back-ups of all sorts of files to DVD. Sometimes I just use the Finder, sometimes I have used Toast.
I am currently using both the Finder burn and Toast Titanium 11.05 to try to burn data disks using DVD-R DL disks. I've only tried four thus far but each time the back-up has failed: twice using the Finder and twice using TT. TT will burn to 99% and then just stop. The Finder method will seem to be chugging along fine but, by the end of the burn, it will present me with an error message (and I number - which I have not written down: if that error # will help, I'll 'waste' another disk to get it).
I'm wondering if it's a hardware, software or media issue. I have used both Memorex and Verbatim disks, so I don't know if it's the media or not.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I don't mind which method I use (although I really prefer Toast for some reason - maybe because I paid so much for it), I just want to be able to back-up my data as I've been doing for the past ten years.
Thanks in advance,
Clinton

Got here from your link Clinton!
Sig makes an important point. There is no guarantee that the brand of media favoured by one DVD burner will be equally succesfull in another.
If you have the only one on the planet that likes Memorex, then stick with it!
For the rest of us there are the brands mentioned in your other thread!

Having trouble converting dvd-rw vr to a format for idvd 3

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to convert my dvd-rw vr dvd i burned to a format I can edit in either idvd 3 or imovie 3? I have mpeg stream clip but it is a bit confusing for this novice.

What does "vr" refer to? To convert DVD files you'll need to have Apple's mpeg plugin ($20 if you haven't purchased it as part of Apple's pro software, etc.) along with MPEG Streamclip. Here's an article about the alternatives:
Converting Unprotected DVDs
http://www.macworld.com/article/59308/2007/08/sept07mac911.html
You'd be converting the files into a format for iMovie (DV Stream, otherwise known as .dv) if you're wanting to do any editing.

Having trouble making a Facebook "Like Us" plugin look good.

Hello.
I'm having troulble getting a Facebook "Like Us" link to look good on a site I built. It seems that no matter where I insert the code for the plugin it just doesn't fit or look right.
Here's the site: http://friendsoflafayette.org/index.html
If I put the plugin in the rightside div it extends past the box. If I put in in the footer it isn't centered. As you can tell, I'm not a master with code and aren't sure how to make this fit properly. Ideally I'd like to put it in the rightside div but is there a way to line-break the text "American Friends of Lafayette" or somehow shorten the width to make it fit the div box? Alternately, how can I center the plugin in the footer so at least it looks presentable?
Any suggestions welcome.
Best Regards,
John

In code view, try changing this:
<div class="fb-like-box fb_iframe_widget" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-American-Friends-of-Lafayette/168772073195787" data-width="292" data-height="200" data-show-faces="false" data-stream="false" data-header="false">
to this with an inline style noted in red:
<div class="fb-like-box fb_iframe_widget" style="margin-left: 35%" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-American-Friends-of-Lafayette/168772073195787" data-width="292" data-height="200" data-show-faces="false" data-stream="false" data-header="false">

Having Trouble Copying DVD

Dear All
We are trying to copy a video DVD to another DVD. Its not a commercial, copyrighted DVD. We're trying to copy onto a DVD+R, with a total capacity of 4.7GB.
We have got as far as creating an image on our Mac of the original DVD, however when I attempt to burn a copy onto a blank it tells me there is insufficient space on the DVD. The image is 4.53GB. Strangely, I cannot see the blank DVD in Finder or the desktop.
Anyone have any clues?
Thanks!

4.53 GB will not fit on a "4.7 GB" DVD. The real size of the 4.7 is close to 4.3 GB.
This is why you are getting the insufficient disk space error. You really don't have enough space.
You might review this thread which has exactly the same question you pose.
