I am trying to build a DVD from an Everio Camcorder in 16:9. but output is 4:3

Hi,
I can't seem to be able to fix this problem. The settings I use in Premiere Elements 9 are as follows when I Open the project: NTSC, Hard Disk Flash Memory Camcorders, Widescreeen 48KHZ. When I bring my scenes in the timeline, I get a warning:"Mismartched Project Setting Preset" . I does not matter if I click Yes or no, they come out 4:3. Also when I create a DVD, I use the setting NTSC Wide Screen Dolby DVD.
I can figure out what to do to fix that. Also, just spent an hour on the phone with a tech about blurry output and the resolution was to change my files .MOD to .M2V. It could be a pretty long process. With those issues, it is getting to be pretty frustrating.
Thanks for your help,
Luc

Lut,
Welcome to the forum.
What are the full specs. of your MOD, and M2v files?If you do not know exactly, you can use G-Spot, or MediaInfo, to gather that info.
That info might help pinpoint the issue.
Good luck,
Hunt

    Hi
    Error -2125
    OK Error code - 2125 usually indicates that the movie is to large.
    It use to pop up when going to iDVD !
    iDVD - DO NOT CARE ABOUT Gbs at all. I got movies on 500Mb that do not fit and 50Gb that fits nicely.
    iDVD - ONLY CARES ABOUT - Duration. Duration is Movie time + MENU TIME. Choice of
    menu and animation of this can take lost of "DURATION" 15 minutes or even more.
    Choice of encoding method and use of SL or DL DVDs determine the DVD limit.
    iDVD 08 & 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities.
    iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST
    • Best Performances (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    DL DVDs can store about double of these times.
    ALTERNATIVE - The Error Code can indicate that free space on Start-up (BOOT) hard disk is
    less than 25Gb (my minimum)

    If you are getting OSStatus error -2125, I've seen this caused by the computer display sleep settings.
    Try changing the sleep settings to never and see if you are able to export.

  • I'm trying to burn a dvd from idvd but I keep getting error message, broken assets, but when I check my drop zones and their content there's no error messages on any of them?

    Hi
    And if You change view - in main "window/view field" so that You see the box-plot structure.
    No exclamation marks there either ?
    and non at the front page ?
    iDVD do not copy Your material - only points to where it is stored. So if on any external hard disks, USB-memories, CDs or DVDs are missing - assetts are broken.
    Or if You changed location of any material or directed iPhoto or iTunes or GarageBand to a new Library - Then iMovie/iDVD also get's lost.

  • Hello..Does anyone in this community know what the following error code indicates   0x8002006E   I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.

    I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.    Thanks for any help you can offer,

    Thanks for your reply:
    I did find an error log related to the error code and tried all suggestions on the list of recommendations, still no luck            
    I definitely am running OS X10.5.8 (hopefully will be updating later on this month)
    I tried several brand new discs from the same box, still no luck.
    My last option is to go out and try a different brand, guess I'll go with Verbatim this time but I think I'll poke around some more before buying 20 more new discs.

  • I am trying to upgrade Mac OSX from 10.7.4 10 .7.5 .But, the grey screen is coming for hours.  What should i do?

    i am trying to upgrade Mac OSX from 10.7.4 10 .7.5 .But, the grey screen is coming for hours.  I pressed the alt key and was taken to options viz. Restart to install MAC again, use time machine. I don't have back-up and so restarted to install MAC again. Can i cancel this now. I want my data to be secure. What should i do?

    If you cancel an install there's no telling what state it will leave your Mac in. Let it finish or fail.
    Then get a disk, it can even be a pocket drive if it's large enough and back up all your own data.
    After that, boot up holding command-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
    The screen should give you these choices...
    Restore from TM backup
    Reinstall Mac OS X

    Disk Utility
    First run Disk Utility Repair Disk, if you get errors run until no errors reported or reports "the disk cannot be fixed". Then, choose Reinstall OS X.

  • I am trying to sync my music from my computer to my iphone 6 but my computer keeps bringing up an error box "computer not authorized" but it is authorized. Please help!

    I am trying to sync my music from my computer to my iphone 6 but my computer keeps bringing up an error box "computer not authorized" but it is authorized. Please help!

    I have a pc and am trying to get my music through my iTunes on my computer.  I didn't have any trouble syncing my iphone 5S but can't get it to sync with my 6. OS 8.1.3
    I open iTunes on my pc, plug in my phone, then I click on the picture of a phone on the upper left hand corner of my music library. Then I get a box of options with sync at the lower right.  I have clicked "automatically sync when phone is plugged in" and have also tried to do it manually by checking specific songs and albums.  Every time I hit sync the box pops up that says, "The iPhone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone.  To authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes store choose Store>Authorize This Computer."
    I took those steps and a box pops up that says "this computer is already authorized."
    I have my recently purchased music on my phone that came through the cloud when I restored my phone. But I want my old music from CD's that I put on my iTunes library in my computer.  I had all of this music on my old phone.
    Thank you so much for your time!  I'm obviously not very good at this!

  • Creating a PAL DVD  from NTSC Video camcorder

    Can the latest version of iMovie create a PAL DVD from NTSC Video camcorder? What are best practices and workflow to create a PAL DVD from NTSC sources.

    iMovie doesn't create DVDs, iDVD does..
    in iM's prefs, set Video to 30fps = NTSC
    quit and relaunch to take changes in effect
    in iDVD's prefs, set Video to 25fps = PAL
    quit and relaunch to take changes in effect
    when finished with editing in iM, Share to Mediabrowser
    in iDVD, select a theme, grab movies from Mediabrowser
    burned DVD will be PAL ..

  • Trying to build a DVD image, DVDSP4 says not enough space

    I have many years' experience using DVD Studio Pro 4, so this hopefully is not a stupid question.
    I'm using an iMac with 80gb free and an external HDD with 12gb free.  I have authored a DVD in DVD Studio Pro 4.  The project says it's 4.6gb.
    I need to make a disc image file of the DVD so I can burn it to DVD media using another computer.  When I do this, it encodes for hours and then says "Formating Failed.  Not enough space of the output media"  (I might be paraphrasing.)
    The only possiblt output medias, the iMac and the external drive, both have plenty of space, and the project is under the limit.  So what gives?

    Let me try this again, because I think we're not communicating.
    I have authored a DVD Studio 4 project with menus and assets, etc.  It simulates just fine.  The tab on the top of the DVDSP screen indicates my project is 4.6gb.  This means I should have no problem turning this project into a DVD.  The computer I'm working on has no DVD burning capabilities so I want to create a disc image of the project instead of burning a DVD.  I have done this before, where DVDSP encodes and builds a file that I can then use Disk Utility to burn to a DVD.  So, once I have my disk image, I will transfer that file to another computer, and use Disk Utility on that second computer to burn the DVD from the disk image.
    NOW
    The problem I'm having is that DVDSP is not able to make the disk image.  When I go to "Build/Format", it should make a disk image, but instead, I get an error saying there is not enough space on the output device.  The "output device" in this case is my external Hard drive which has plenty of space.  That is why I am asking for help.

  • Trying to burn a dvd from fce

    i tried the idvd forum but havent got any responses- since this forum has always been such a help i figured i'd try it- does anyone know how to free up disk space for encoding assets on idvd- apparently its a 'multiplexer' problem- or can someone fill me in on how to use the disk utility to burn a dvd after i have already exported my project from final cut express as a quicktime movie - i have also tried to print to video and it prints sound but the picture doesnt come up in the playback- says the data is incompatable- help!- i cant sleep till i figure this out-
    thanks

    Hi suprjosh
    A multiplexer error is usually occurs when burning to a poor quality DVD disk. It can also happen if you are trying to burn the DVD at a too high of a speed. Verbatim is very good. Try burning a disk image from iDVD first. From there use disk utility to burn a DVD. Disk utility will allow you to select a burn speed. Try 4X at most. If you are burning directly from iDVD buy a disk rated to 4X not 8X, 16X etc. It's just too fast and you'll get multiplexer errors.
    Good luck

  • Trying to create new DVD from selected portions of existing DVD

    I have a DVD I created of my son singing from a video we copied into the Mac several months ago. I can't find the file on the MAC and I'm not sure it would help with my objective if i found it. The video tape has been taped over.
    I want to capture selected portions of the old DVD onto a new DVD.
    Using a camcorder and a different tape, I learned tha I-movie lets me capture clips directly from the camcorder.
    How do I create clips from the old DVD and import them into iMovie like the camcorder allowed me to do. Once I create the clips, is it difficult to create a new DVD from the clips. This is a new process to me. It may be an easy step I'm missing, but missing that step is a show stopper. Can someone help. -- thanks

    Hi
    Tapeing over an old tape - has it's major disadvantages. You'll never get that
    same good quality again. The DVD disc has a very much lower quality than the original
    what ever way You choose.
    Easy: Connect Your Camera to a set-top DVD player and copy to a new tape.
    Best quality I've got.
    More elaborate (read pricey) use a video-bridge (some Cameras can do this)
    Lazy and not that expencive: Buy Roxio Toast™ and let it convert back to streamingDV
    that iMovie can handle. Probably about the same quality as copy to tape.
    And don't put a mini DVD disc into Your Mac. You need a trayloaded DVD to do this.

  • Tried burning photos to DVD from iphoto - error message

    Burned several hundred photos without any issues, but now have tried unsuccessfully to do the last 300 photos - each time I enter a disc and hit burn, I get an error message: "The burn to the MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-898 drive failed. The disc drive didn’t respond properly and can’t recover or retry". Tried burning them in smaller groups of albums and having no luck. Also tried rebooting.
    Using iPhoto 8.1.2.
    Any suggestions?

    I ran into this exact issue, trying to archive some iPhone videos from my iPhoto Library. Even though iPhoto tells you how much space you have left on the disc, it must not count any additional data it has to burn onto that disc. I finally got my disc to burn by removing videos, freeing up around 500 MB from the DVD.
    This is very frustrating behavior not only because the error message says nothing about disc space, but also because iPhoto gives you a user interface for keeping an eye on how much space is left on your disc but it doesn't tell you the whole story.
