How to fit more on a dvd--new to this...

hi!
im new to the whole dvd and movie making thing, and i would like to know if there is a way to compress video to fit more on a dvd. i made my first dvd recently, and i was dissapointed to see that i could only fit a bit of movie on it. any help would be appreciated!
P.S. ive already thought about trying the double layer dvds....too expensive!

IDVD 5 is limited to 120 minutes of playing time, including motion menus. To get this amount you need to set iDVD's preferences to Best Quality. To be on the safe side I like to limit my projects to 115 minutes as I often have a number of menus.
To get more you'd have to use DVD Studio Pro which can encode considerably more than iDVD. But that's pretty pricey also.

When updating apps in iTunes there is no more description what's "new in this version"...

Hi
I regulary update my collection of apps via iTunes on my Macbook Pro and then sync back to my iPhone and iPad. When I check out the website of a specific app (https://itunes.apple.com/.../app/.../id) in a browser or in the update tab on my iPad/iPhone I can find a description of what's new in the current version of the app. This used to be also a helpful feature in iTunes but it's gon with iTunes 11. Strange but when updating apps in iTunes there is mostly no more description what's "new in this version"...

I did download these. Tarascon Adult Emergency Medicine, Scanner 911, Angry Birds, Cut the rope, Epicurious, Home Away, Nike Running, etc...
I occationally sync it with my computer. I wonder if I can delete them from there?

Your past purchases are not on the computer. By choosing download all, those purchases will download to the computer.
Once authorized to your iTunes account you can control the computer.
When syncing the iPad the first time you will get the warning " this iPad is synced with another computer, syncing will erase all contents and replace with the contents of this computer"
Say yes, this is what you wan to do.

How to fit video to DVD-5?

Hi: I have been reading the faqs and forums, and pulling info from a variety of sources, but I am still confussed about how to fit my video to a DVd-5 using Encore. I have previsouly made DVds using Encore 1 & 2.0, so I know the process. But those were smaller projects under 1 hour running time. My current project is approaching 100 minutes for the main feature with small extras, and some basic menus.
I have read that I should be able to fit 110-130 minutes max on a DVD-5. I have also read to realistically expect something closer to 60-75 minutes. Which is it?
My footage is sport oriented so their is movement and & action, lots of transitions, & some composting.
Can someone tell me how do I fit 100 minutes to DVD-5, if that is possible?
I am editing my feature in PPro 1.5. I export 5-10 minute segments as DV AVI files, and then color adjust etc in AE 7.0., which I have been saving as Microsoft DV. I was planning on final assembly of all segments in AE 7.0, & export the whole feature from AE 7.0 as Microsfot DV. But I think this makes my feature file too big and it won;t fit to DVD-5. Is there another codec I should be using for final output to Encore?
What if I assembled in PPro 1.5 and exported to AE for final color. Is there a different codec I should be using to help it fit later on?
Also, I usually leave Encore set to automatic transcode and let it figure whats best. Should I be picking soemthing different?
Thanks and sorry if this has been cover before

How to add more than one clip to a drop zone? New guy

Hey all, I'm new to DVD studio and I'm trying to fiqure out how to add more than one clip to a Template drop zone. I'm using a 6 button template. I've named each button .. Football, Baseball, Hockey ...etc.
How can put in MORE THAN ONE CLIP in the Football track/drop zone. So when someone clicks on Football they can see 3 examples.
Do I need to create something to link to that Football button?
Any replies appreciated

You can edit the segments to be used in FCP or Motion so that the asset drop in has three examples
Another way (if you want) is to make the entire menu outside of DVD SP so that the background layer is an m2v and the items are revealed/masked to some degree
Take a look towards the bottom of this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2951183&#2951183 where I discuss http://www.dvdstepbystep.com/Overmovies.zip
Note that you can also use a basic overlay to do this. The overlay would be just solid black instead of the arrows/circles things I use in that example.
For instance make the text one color and the box over the movie another (You can make it blue and the box red lets say) Draw a region over both for the button. Map blue for highlights/transparencies for normall/selected/activated and the same for the Box

You create an @icloud.com address in the first place by signing into Settings>iCloud with your Apple ID and choosing an addres - you can only create an @icloud.com address, not @me.com.
Then if you want further addresses on the same account you can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

How do I add more ports to my new Airport Extreme?

How do I add more ports to my new Airport Extreme? What do I need to buy?

Thinking to leave as is for now- one 2013 extreme.
That would certainly keep things a lot simpler.
Does it seem right that using speed test I'm getting similar speeds, no matter if I'm connected via wi-fi, or Ethernet?
A very good sign assuming those speeds are reasonably close to the your plan offered by your ISP. The Extreme itself is capable of much faster speeds than your ISP can ever hope to provide.
I'm thinking that all the speed in the world is not going to change Time Warner Cable, the provider for earthlink cable
Not sure what you mean here. Time Warner provides various plans, some up to 50 Mbps. I get 60+ consistently with this plan. I had a 30 Mpbs plan before that consistently delivered about 35-36 Mbps.
The math is simple. If you download a lot of files from the Internet, a 50 Mbps connection is going to take half as long to download a file as a 25 Mbps connection, for example.
One word of caution though....if you try a higher speed plan...plan to stay, as you will never go back to slower speeds once you have sampled higher speeds. Comcast now owns Time Warner by the way. I don't know whether that will be a good thing or a bad thing.

How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money?

How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money and time? I've spent over seven hours trying to upgrade an iMac 350 Hz OS 9.1 to Tiger. I have changed the iMac firmware to 4.1.9, but found that my Panther disc was only an OSX Upgrade, although the 3 cds are labeled as Installation Discs. Since I have a Tiger disc I thought I would use that. Unfortunately, my iMac only reads CDs, not DVDs. I tried networking the iMac to my G5, but upon shutdown, the OSX disc cannot be accessed. I copied the DVD files to my iMac hard drive, but again, the OSX disc cannot be accessed after shutdown.
Is there a way I can burn a CD from the files of my Tiger DVD to get this task accomplished?

Excuse me, but I never thought of that, nor did I have any intention of trying to rip off your company.
I purchased four iPods for my family this Christmas. I have six iMacs just sitting around not being used. I thought that I would turn one into an iPod work station, so everyone can use one computer to recharge and hook up to iTunes 7.
Unfortunately, iTunes does not work very well in OS9. Apple decided not to continue to support OS9 very well. I’ve spent several hours attempting to upgrade the iMac so I could set up iTunes 7. Unfortunately, my 3 Panther Installation Discs were mislabeled, and did not allow me to install OSX over OS9. My OSX 10.2.7 Installation Disc is a DVD, and my Tiger Installation disc is a DVD. Neither usable to update the iMac.
All I want to do is set up a dumb iMac as a network interface to my G5 because I've use all of the G5's ports for our recording studio and the iPods need external power source if they are plugged directly into the G5.
If you could show me an easier way to run iTunes 7 on the iMac I wouldn't be as ****** off as I am at Apple for not supporting the 9 older computers I own with usable help and upgrades.

How about some more samsung products in the auctions ? I really don't want to bid on those crappy ipads. How about a better mix of product lines or at least some of your "new" digital coupons geared towards Samsung products????

How to include more than 12 files in a new PDF document?

I have a Adobe PDF Pack, and when I click on crating a new PDF document, they say that I cannot combine more than 12 files...!
And I want to have a document of hundreds of pages!
Someone can help me?
Pleeeeaaase!!!!!!

Hi Hisami,
Thank you very, very much!
It is very useful what you explain.
One only question, since I have the trying version of Acrobat Pro: how many files can you combine at the time with it?
May be it depends on the files size.
I tried yesterday to combine 50 files at the time and it just blocked everything...
Thanks a lot!
Have a very good day.

To combine more than 12 files into a single PDF file:
1. Combine file 1 to file 12 then name it (combined 1 for example)
2. Combine file 13 to file 24 then name it (combined 2 for example)
3. Keep doing those steps #1 and #2 then combine "combined 1, Combine 2.....Combine 12).
Another way is to use Adobe Acrobat. Please download Acrobat XI Pro Trial version from www.adobe.com or you can upgrade your subscription to Acrobat Plus(please see more information about Acrobat Plus subscription at https://www.acrobat.com/acrobatplus/en/home.html?trackingid=JPZKR).
In Acrobat XI Pro:
1. Launch Acrobat
2. Select "File" menu > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF
3. Click "Add Files" button at top left corner
4. After adding your files click "Combine" button at the bottom of the dialog.
Thank you
Hisami

How to FIT media on DVD--time vs, compresion ratio.

I have a huge wedding video that is gonna end up being 2+ hours.
my part1 rendered out a QT at 9g........no wonder it kept stopping from burning a DVD.
So how to we choose what format [MPEG 4 - AVI - QT] etc. ????
i tried an MPEG4 just guessing and it rendered at 190mb but is very grainy.....Hey if they can put a 2 hour blockbuster on a DVD and make it look good......what codec or convertion trick are they using ?
thanks

Sorry i didn't respond sooner and thankyou to all 3 of you for your time and help.........apperantly
.......[ i DVD 2 ] was opening as default when i put a disc in and it wouldn't fit my mamouth 3 hour wedding video onto it (thats alot of footage to try to make look professional the whole time)......anyway, i did find version '3' and that seem to fit both parts........so as a novice in authoring am i to assume that iDVD trys to squeeze a much as it can ?????
but how did IT know until i imported the 2nd 2 hour part how much to compress thus fit all 3 hours ?
the avearge full leangth movie is usually 2+ hours w/ extras.......what type of comp do they use on commercial DVDs ?
Thus far i have used iDVD cuz i just worked w/o any fuss........i tried to understand the 'Compression' app as well a Studio Pro and whoooey........of course i just scanned the directions and tried to make it work which does work w/ some apps, but as an 'artist' if i can say, its difficult to learn all this 'other' stuff so i guess im asking what app should invest my time with if my main concern is just getting it to 'fit' and look and sound good >>>?????
what is the most 'time' you can fit on 4.7g DVD and look as good as commercial comprssed movies ?
this is a good question i think....not all of one video project has to have the same quality, in some footage, close-ups and special moments, stills, i would want to look their best, but random shots (filler) the quality doesn't have to be so tight............is there a way to change comp thru 1 DVD project ?
I will read the links you all offered, but if you have any suggestions on apps that are easy to learn and work with but still can make a DVD its best please let me know.
again thanks for takin the time.
