How do I burn a DVD of photos on my MacBook Pro

I have tried several times to burn photos but I get messages that it is unable to burn the disc. 
I also tried to burn a slideshow with music to a DVD and that didn't work, either. 
So, basically, exactly what kind of DVD should I be using?
And which of the options should I choose for the kind of DVD I want, which is I want to be able to play it on a DVD player to watch on a TV.

You have to buy an external Blue-ray player.
Check this site out. Click on the "CD/DVD/Blue-ray tab.

  • How do I burn my movies that are on my MacBook Pro on to a DVD R?

    I need advice on how to burn my movies I have on my MacBook Pro to a DVD+R disc.

    my movies are non copywritten that i took with my phone, of family get togethers, then downloaded tp my computer.

  • Can I burn a DVD-R to copy my MacBook Pro? It is going to the Mac hospital.

    Can DVD-Rs be used to backup my MacBook Pro?

    I agree with Kurt Lang, but I would add
    ... where cloning means using a utility such as SuperDuper (free for a full clone), or Carbon Copy Cloner (also an excellent cloning utility), or using Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility and tell it to restore from the boot disk to the external disk.
    Personally I would go with SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner, as they are easier to use and have proved themselves to be excellent utilities (I own both).  If money is an issue and this is just a one time being safe clone, then choose SuperDuper as making a full clone, which is what you are doing, is free with SuperDuper (SD makes their money when you buy the software to make incremental updates to a clone; increments take a lot less time, so are well worth the cost of the package is you are going to use it as a regular backup package).
    However, if you only have a few files in your home directory you want to save (like under 5GB), then you could burn a DVD.
    But if you do not already have an external backup device, then it is time to start thinking about it, as disks fail, and after you loose data is the wrong time to start thinking about regular backups.

  • How do I disable my dvd optical drive on my MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion)?

    Hey,
    I have dvd stuck in my optical drive and it keeps on making a noise-non stop. I've tried everything to remove it, ATM cards, rebooting whilst holding mouse key and eject botton, terminal command etc etc.-nothing works! I'm stuck in North Africa with no Apple services available anywhere close by.
    I don't really use the dvd drive that much anyway so I would like to just disable my dvd optical drive all together. I saw that it is possible on Snow Leopard and Lion but the option to go to /Library/Extensions and removing (IODVDStorageFamily.kext) and removing it is not available on Mountain Lion.
    Help please!

    Light source. Straightened paper-clip. Insert straight (no wiggling around) to find the mechanical eject hole on the edge of the DVD drive.
    Hold the MBP trackpad down during a cold reboot. I know you said you used a mouse like this.
    In Terminal, type drutil eject
    Try ejecting the DVD with the MBP flipped upside down. Sometimes all you need is gravity. If the credit card didn't pry it up off the drive spindle, maybe this will.
    Because of your location, you may not have the tools to take the MBP apart and remove the DVD drive.

    Thanks for the follow up.
    In Premiere Elements 13/13.1, your export choices are in the Publish+Share section of the project. There are several choices and sub-choices.
    Example: Publish+Share/Computer/and then a list of choices under that, such as, MPEG, AVI, AVCHD, XAVC-S, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, Audio.
    And each has Presets which define the export settings. Adobe offers default settings which are usually optimized ones. But, it also allows you to customize the preset selected. You do that by clicking on the Advanced Button of the selected preset and customizing the settings under the Video Tab, Audio Tab, and, if applicable, Multiplexer Tab.
    From what you wrote, I thought that you might be asking about exporting a video with a video codec = Photo JPEG.
    To do that you would to to
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    QuickTime
    with Presets = either the one for 4:3 of 16:9 as appropriate for your project,
    and then clicking on the Advanced Button, and then the Video Tab under the Advanced Button.
    Then selecting Photo JPEG for the video codec field.
    Tip: The QuickTime choice is not seen unless you scroll down the list of Computer choices. Use the thin scroll bar to the right of the Computer choices.
    Please explore Premiere Elements 13/13.1's Publish+Share/Disc/DVD with standard or widescreen preset for your creation of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
    The Premiere Elements timeline destined for this choice could consistent of supported photos and or videos.
    Please consider.
    Any questions and need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?

    I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?  I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended.  I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business.  I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now.  Hopefully you can help me.  Thanks.

    Thank you for your reply.
    You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
    that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
    different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
    etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
    the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
    If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
    But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
    HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
    at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
    Best results depend on you
    a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
    you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
    b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
    customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
    and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
    the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
    Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
    I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
    and it is low quality
    Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
    the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
    Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • How can I burn a disk of photos with a modified file name?

    After importing photos from scan device, I use Photos > Batch > Change to rename files.  When burning a disk the changed file names do not transfer with the image but use the original file name.  How can I burn a disk of photos with the modified file name?
    This is what I have done so far with no success.
    Drag selected photos from Event to Burn Folder where the file names were changed. Burn folder lists file with original file name.
    Drag albums to Burn Folder with the same result.
    In Filer I am able to change the iPhoto Library > Master > Date > Filename and then drag to burn disk folder and see the changed name but this is a single file exercise without a view of the file's image, but to use the new file name in iPhoto events I have to repeat the naming convention.

    File > Export.
    In the resulting dialogue note the "Name" section. Choose to use the Title as Filename.

  • How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

    How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

    Here's what you do to get Premiere CS6 + Encore:
    Just click here (it's the same link as the more information link in CC.)
    or
    Go to your Creative Cloud application (on the menu bar) and go to Adobe Premiere CC and click more information
    There is a dropdown menu that says "Adobe Premiere Pro CC" near the top.
    Click it and the other option is "Adobe Premiere Pro CS6."  Select that.
    Now on the top right corner of the page it has a download button that says "Download Adobe Premiere Pro CS6."
    It is included in your CC subscription.
    However, a word of warning, you cannot use Adobe Dynamic Link to link to a Premiere CC sequence directly in Encore.  A CS6 sequence still works fine, but if you have a CC project, you will need to encode your sequence into a DVD friendly format (MPEG2 file).  I'm really hoping that Adobe changes this in their upcoming release, and just adds the ability to import CC sequences into Encore, then I would be fine with them not including it in the normal CC package, or updating it.  But I haven't seen anything about it in the release notes.
    A lot of people still want their DVDs and it's a lot easier to just dynamically link the sequence.

  • How can I burn a dvd without themes?

    how can I burn a dvd without themes?

    (From fellow poster Mishmumken: )
    How to create a DVD in iDVD without menu (there are several options):
    1. Easy: Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously. Disadvantage: The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
    2. Still easy: If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well). Disadvantage: The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
    3. Still quite easy but takes more time: Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
    Disadvantage: One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
    4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software: Roxio Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn. Disadvantage: you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
    5. The "hard way": Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
    Tools necessary: myDVDedit ( http://www.mydvdedit.com )
    • create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
    • Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
    • Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
    • Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
    • Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
    • Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
    • Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager:
    http://lonestar.utsa.edu/llee/applescript/dvdimager.html
    Our resident expert, Old Toad, also recommends this: there is a 3rd export/share option that give better results.  That's to use the Share ➙ Media Browser menu option.  Then in iDVD go to the Media Browser and drag the movie into iDVD where you want it.
    Hope this helps!
