Desperately needs help burning DVD from iPhoto

I am using iPhoto 6.0.6. I desperately need help burning a DVD of a slide show that I created for my daughter's wedding.
I put several songs together by opening them and then combining them using QuickTime Pro. I imported the audio into iTunes and created a slide show using iPhoto. The slide show is perfect! The slides are finally in sink with the music just as I want them! But I don't know how to burn the slide show as a DVD.
I tried exporting the video from iPhoto to my computer, but at the end of the export, I get this message: please note that the music included in the slideshow can only be played on authorized machines. And when I try to play the video (after the export), most of the music on the video cannot be heard. When I try to authorize my machine, I am told that it's already authorized.
If someone would send detailed instructions on how to proceed, I would greatly appreciate it.
Greg

Is your problem the DRM audio tracks you purchased from iTunes store?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

URGENT HELP Burning DVD from Final Cut Pro

I have a video due to buyers bye wednesday. If anyone knows how to take the movie I made and burn it to a DVD, please let me know as soon as you can. It wont let me export it to iDVD and when I try to "print to video" my camcorder only picks up the sound and not the video. I need help PLEASE!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone. Zack

For exporting to iDVD, chose FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE (not quicktime conversion). Select SELF CONTAINED and USE TIMELINE SETTINGS. Then import this file into iDVD and when you click BURN, it will compress it to the DVD format for you.
As for the Print to Video issue, look at the following list to see if it is one of these:
Shane's Stock Answer #8:
A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
Then go View > External video > all frames
Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

Help burning DVD

When I burn my final DVD, I get some strange posterizing effects. I've tried re-exporting my video from FCP and now I want to burn a "test" DVD but when I try I get a warning that "a VIDEO_TS Directory already exists. Choosing delete will overwrite the existing VIDEO_TS contents."
What does this mean? Will it overwrite my current project or can I go ahead and burn my test without losing my project?
Thanks!

It will overwrite the DVD that you previous created.
You can choose another burn folder, or delete that folder or overwrite it.
If you elect to overwrite it, then the test DVD that gave you trouble will be deleted and replaced by the new one.
The project stays intact.
please take the time to mark a response as solved or helpful

Need Help Burning DVD Elements 10

How do I burn a DVD with 130 pictures in ALBUM ORDER in Elements 10?

If you don’t also have Premiere Elements then you need to create a slideshow (Windows only) from the album and output to a wmv file. Then use Windows Movie maker or Windows DVD Maker.

Help burning DVD with Disk Utility

What's the problem, and how do I burn my .dmg disk image?
Mac Mini Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Eject the disk.
In disk Utility, select the disk image file and click the burn button.
A drop down window should appear and ask for a blank disk. Insert the disk.
Soon the window should change and show burn options, and the burn button at the bottom right should turn blue. Choose any options you need and click the blue burn button.

HT1349 Why is my burned DVD CD file corrupt?

I burned a CD with a tv show into a DVD file from my iTunes library and when I try to play the burned CD i get the message that its corrupt. What did I do wrong or how do I make it work?

Not sure. Why are you trying to burn a video onto a CD? If it's a commercial TV show you are trying to copy we may not be able to discuss here. Please clarify what you are trying to do.

Help burning DVD w/Toast 7

I'm not able to burn a DVD of a movie w/ iTunes on the soundtrack using Toast 7 on external LaCie burner (no superdrive on my iMac). When I drag the movie into Toast, dialog says 'only apple iTunes can burn data'. I'm 'iTunes authorized' on my iMac so what's up?
Deano

The quick and dirty way is to burn the iTunes song(s) to CD,
Put the CD Into the drive open iMovie and select the soundtrack off the CD to import into iMovie's timeline at the same position on the timeline as the old soundtrack that you're going to replace.
PS. The iDVD forum can help you with burning an iDVD project or creating an iDVD disk image to burn to an external burner (Superdrive not required) if you're interested.

Burning DVD files....

Can someone please answer this question.....
Which Roxio Toast app is compatible with my Macbook?
I need to be able to burn .dvd/.avi files For Later Viewing, Not For Re-Sale...
Macbook OSX 10.4.11
2GHz Intel 2 Duo

Hi - and what results you have using Toast? Did you ever used iDVD? I never used Toast but always iDVD, and pretty much every time I run into trouble playing burnt DVD - they skip, or freeze, stutter, etc. I tried all kinds of blank media, thinking that that could be a problem; I started to buy Verbatim with an extra protective layer; I burnt (in iDVD) the discs at 1x speed.... and - still no much of the difference - even if they play once or twice without interruption - the discs will pause, skip, or freeze, or stutter eventually...
WHAT TO DO, so the burnt DVDs will play smoothly?
Is the TOAST 9 or 10 any better at this point (than iDVD)???

One of my 2 Mac Books burns DVDs - how?

I bought my Macbook in 2006 and I'm able to burn DVDs (just files, not movies) in it. I tought all Mac Books did this, until my parents bought a new one in January 2007. Same computer, same system, and we never "pimped up" any of the computers. We use them just like they left the store. How come all Mac Books only read DVDs but don't burn them (they are just ejected, right?) and the older computer came from the store burning DVDs? I'd be happy if anyone could help!
Thanks.

You don't order it customized. It comes stock with a dvd burner. There are three models of each MacBook line. Two white ones and a black. One white one has a combo drive this is the low end one. The second white one has a superdrive and burns dvds. You apparently have the mid tier model which has the burner. As I said it is not customized it comes that way.

Burned DVD won't work after DVD player 4.6.1

I made a DVD of my daughter's wedding two days ago and it played fine on my iMac G5. Yesterday I updated the DVD player with the DVD 4.6.1 update and now I can't get my DVD to show up on the desktop or play in the DVD player. Any thoughts?

I also trashed the iDVD plist to see if that will speed up my DVD burning.
Ain't gonna' happen. You should create a disk image and then burn DVDs.
File/Save As Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Disk Utility to burn the DVD.
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (not the .img, the one below) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. Your SuperDrive tray will open. Insert a recordable DVD. (DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and Tiger.
b Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD 5 project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

Unable to burn DVDs because I renamed the drive the project and burn files are on. Please help.

I am unable to burn DVDs because, not thinking, I renamed the external drive the project is on. How do I fix the problem in DVD Studio Pro 4? I changed the name back on the drive, the files show as linked, but it won't burn. I've tried to refresh the assets, didn't help. Relink is not available to try. I tried to go to file/advanced burn & build, but it was not available either. I'm new to all this so am very afraid to trash the preferences, not knowing if I'm going to do other harm.
Thanks,
Trish C

Reimport the files and drop them into the project.
Your links should work.

Need help burning project to DVD

Can anyone help me burn a PRE project to a DVD in .VOB (NTSC) format so it can be read by any DVD player connected to a TV, not a computer. I know how it is supposed to be done in Premier Elements because I did it with small sample files, but whenever I try with a larger project, PRE always crashes during the encoding process.. First I will give the particulars of my system, then of my project, then of the trouble shooting I already tried, finally my experiences
System:
     Intel Pentium "E2200" dual core processor @ 2.2 GHZ speed
     3 GB RAM
     Windows 32bit Vista Home Premium with SP2 installed
     1/4 TB hard drive with 100MB free and 0% fragmented
      Intel G31/33 graphics processor
Projects:
     14 MB slide show consting of 5 MB JPEG files with audio or text captions and unedited MPG4 files of 480x720 pixels imported from Samsung camcorder set at recording quality of 5 MB/sec.
     10 MB movie created in instant DVD by dragging above JPEG and MPG4 files from album
     Neither have additional narration or music tracks
     Both the above about 25 minutes on the timeline
Troubleshooting already tried:
     Burning project to folder instead of to DVD
     Exporting files to PC in MPG2 and AVI format
     Rendering the file (not all at once, but in separate work areas at a time)
     Burned to both -RW and -R DVD's
     Deselecting the "Fit contents to available space" quality option in the burn menu and manually selecting a bitrate speed of 3 MB/sec
     Repeating the above in selective start of windows with all start programs and non-Microsoft processes disabled
     Repeating the above for both Slide show and movie projects
Results:
     The encoding process never completes, but it abends at different stages in different trials--never the same point. Sometimes it crashes at less than 20% complete; sometimes it makes it to 96% complete, then stops responding. Sometimes it generates a crash report, and sometimes it just stops responding, so I have to open task manager to end the program.   Sometimes I get a message that PRE is dangerously low on system memory. I just close the window and procede, because I am watching physical memory usage in Task Manager while PRE is encoding and it is consistantly about 60%. CPU usage often peaks at 100%, but not for more than 60 secs at a time. When the system crashed, it generated an error message in the administrative events log sometimes reading: "The entry <name of project file> in the hash map cannot be updated"; event ID 3013, which Microsoft found no help for. When it simply stops responding, it leaves no error message in the system log until I close the program.
     I don't think I have a system error, because my system sussessfully burned two minute test projects, and don't have a project error, because I could render the timeline. What is going on here?
     B.T.W, some people I talked to about this problem who make their living in photos and electronics suggest I buy a camcorder which records in MPEG2 format, then simply burn the MPEG2 files to DVD without re-encoding, insert the DVD into any player connected to a TV, and play. I don't think this advice is correct.   Opinions?

HELP! MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, and...

Hi all
I noticed that there many of you have the same problem, but I really need some advice here, my MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, well actually occasionally it does recognise the DVDs then it burn but cannot write (on Toast), also in many other apps, like iDVD or DVDSP, it does run well on the first part of the burning but then failed at the end, with all kinda diff error msg. I have tried using many diff brands of disc too, inc verbatim.
So I borrowed my friends external DVD writer (actually a cheapy one with no brand), when I tried to burn using the external then an error msg comes up and says the writer cannot recognise the disc.
I dont wana get the MBP to repair but just wana get a external DVD writer to solve the problem, cos i need to use my computer and dont have a replacement mac, but now I am worry if the problem i now having is a system problem or just hardware, not sure if it is because the DVD writer i borrow is cheapy so it doesnt cope with mac, or just my MBP have system error that cant burn DVDs...
But my MBP can burn CDs so it is not a hardware problem? and if that is a system problem so even I buy a new DVD writer wont solve the problem?
btw, I have tried many solving methods like rewriting permission, reset PVRAM, etc
PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS HELP

I'm having the same problem you are on my 2.4GHZ Core2Duo MBP running 10.5.2. It will sometimes recognize DVDs, sometimes not... it chuggs and clunks and then spits the disc out. If i re-insert it a view times it will show up on the desktop. I get failures from Toast as well as iDVD. If i keep trying i have been able to burn files onto a disc with the finder, but then the burner fails during the verification. If put the disc back in the contents appear to be correct (after a quick look). Burning CD-Rs seems to be working fine, that with the occasional DVD write seems to point away from the HW. I am trying with both Memorex DVD+RW and Verbatim DVD-Rs...
I have tried the command/option-PR reset combo with no luck.
Any ideas?
thanks,
-graham
PS the specific error i got from iDVD was: The error #-2147352539 was reported…
