I burned a HDV on regular DVD didnt work

Can you not burn HD to regular DVD? I compressed my project in Compressor as HD DVD 60 min h.264 and i brought it into DVD STUDIO PRO AND once i did an advance burn and actually burned it on my DVD Player and it didnt work it said it doesnt support this kind. ? any ideas?

So you actually burned it to a physical disc? To see if it actually does work, you should be able to put it in your Mac and use DVD Player (the included app) to play it. IF it works there, then you're set. All you need now is a HD-DVD player. Do you have one of those?
If you have just a regular DVD player, or even a blu-ray player, then that disc won't work because those two formats are different than the HD-DVD you burned. You need something like this: http://tinyurl.com/dd39v6 Just remember, HD-DVD is dead. I have a Toshiba player, because it was super cheap ($80), and I use it only at Bridal Expos to show off our work in HD. Once that player goes kaput, i'll have to pony up for a blu-ray player.

  • Downloaded TV shows on iTunes but unable to burn them to a regular DVD

    Hello,
    I just downloaded some TV shows on iTunes and it will only let me burn them to a data CD and i need it burned to a regular CD so I can watch it on the TV. It won't let me import the files, which are .mv4, to either iMovie or iDvd. I don't know what to do.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Exporting HD from Premiere to Regular DVD

    Hey everyone !
    Quick question -- hope someone on here can help !!!
    I shot and edited a 3 min video in full HD and am curious which format to export it in order to burn it on a regular DVD. I do not see an Mpeg option so I am not sure which way to do this ... I do not want to burn it to Blu-ray.
    Any help would be great !!!
    Thanks again,
    -mark

    Wow!! On a complete side-note, whoever designed the adobe site / forums should be fired. Took me 10 minutes to figure out how to reply to my own post .....
    Ok. so the options that the both of you kindly presented are NOT the options I have. I did not have time this morning to take a screeshot of my export options, but MPEG-2 DVD is simply not there and I don't know why. I have been editing on premiere since 6.0 and have never had 'missing' export options before. I'm hoping it's not because of the footage I'm shooting with. I shot a music video using the Canon 7d (full HD 1920 x 1080) and I hope that's not what's limiting my options. In fact, I  don't have any DVD export options EXCEPT blu-ray. There's mpeg4 and H.264, etc but no Mpeg-2. I'll post a screenshot of my options tonight.
    I'm also using the trial version of Premiere Pro CS5 -- but can't imainge that would be the issue.
    thanks

  • Very Poor Quality when burning to regular DVD

    Can somebody tell me why when i burn to regular dvd the quality looks like a vhs video which is out of focus ?  When i burn to blu ray its crystal clear !!  I dont expect great great quality but i would expect something that is watchable !!

    Well if you are working with Premiere Elements 10 or above and want high Blue ray Quality content on DVD discs, then you have got the option of AVCHD disks in Share->Disc->AVCHD.
    But due to high bit rate, the amount of content that can be burnt on to AVCHD disks is much lesser than on to DVD disks.
    You can change the bit rate and increase the amount of content that can be burnt(but that will once again start diminshing quality)
    You will have to manage this quality-size tradeoff.

  • TS2180 DVDs won't play in regular DVD players iDVD burns with no errors the DVDs always get out into a folder ???

    Dear Apple friends The iDVD burns DVDs with-out any error messages but DVDs dont play in regular DVD players I notice that the DVD burns to a folder and there is no setting to prevent this How do you burn the DVD with-out it getting put into a folder ??? Thanks Mike

    That often is a result of using inferior DVD disks and burning at too high a speed.  What brand and type of disk did you use and what speed did you burn at?
    Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • I have made several iMovies.  Can the DVD be converted or Burned to view on regular tv?

    I have made several iMovies of family.  Can these DVD's be converted or Burned so that they can be viewed on regular tv?

    Hi
    There are two kinds of DVDs that You can burn on Your Mac
    • Data-DVD - DVD is on deskTop/Finder and You put files on it - This will not play on ANY DVD-Player at all. It's a Data-DVD
    • Video-DVD - Here You use iDVD or other DVD encoding program and add movies, photos and audio then when iDVD ask You to - Insert a new blanc DVD - Now iDVD will encode and burn material to this to result in a Video-DVD that should play on most DVD-Players
    So dragging material to the DVD indicates - wrong way to do it.
    In iMovie - Do not use Share to iDVD but "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (Not HD or other res. as quality will drop)
    In iDVD import movie/s from Media button / Movies. (Do not go back to iMovie/FinalCut as this will trigger iDVD to set of the iDVD-BUG when returned here. If You must! Then start a brand new iDVD project.)

  • My Premiere Elements 11 will not longer burn regular DVDs, but will burn Bue Ray

    I have reinstalled the program and still get the same erro messages when I try to burn a regular DVD.  Any ideas on how to fix this?  ( I have been burning regular DVDs for the last 4 months and have burned al leasr 15.

    ATR,
    I removed the stop marker and the DVD burned the way it should.  I really appreciate the quick response.  (I am still a bit confused why the stop marker  did not cause a problem when I successfully burned a Blue Ray disc)

  • I'm burning dvd's that won't play on a regular dvd player.  What am I doing wrong?  Are there some simple things to check to figure this out?  (Sorry, I know this has been asked many times)

    Hi
    Just my thoughts to add to the excellent answers above.
    • BRAND of DVD used - Matters when doing Video-DVDs
    Memorex, NoName etc cheap brands usually do NOT work
    I only Use Verbatim (more organic dye in these)
    • Type of DVD - matters
    - DVD+/RW - usually results in problems
    - DL-DVDs are more problematic than SL-DVDs
    - DVD+R are a more modern sort - BUT PLAYS BADLY or not at all on older DVD-players
    I only use DVD-R
    • BURN SPEED - matters
    - Best in iDVD app - IS NOT BEST at all but results in lot's of Burn Errors = Doesn't play well or at all
    I set this down to x2 or x4 max.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Burned DVD movies skip/freeze on regular DVD player

    I've made a few home movies, and burned them on to DVDs. When I play them on a regular DVD player (Sony), the movie skips/freezes from time to time. I've burned the same movie on my other MacBook, and this does not happen.
    Could it be that the SuperDrive on this MacBook is broken?

    Hi,
    I would take a look at the following:
    1. Try a different brand blank DVD medium when you burn the disc. Set top players seem to be a lot more sensitive to the brand of disc than computers.
    2. Burn the iDVD project to an image file. Share the image file over to another Mac and burn it there. See if you still have problems with playback.
    3. If you still had problems with an image file burned on a different computer, then you know it must be something in the data format of the disc. I've experienced problems with some set top DVD playback machines that can not handle sustained high bit rate content. As far as I know, iDVD uses a relatively simple encoding strategy, and does not do much to reduce the information content of the encoded video stream. If you start with a high resolution QuickTime or DVI import, playback machines with limited disc performance might not be able to keep up.
    I did some fairly superficial Google searches and looked at iDVD, and I didn't see any means of setting up the bit rate and encoding strategies that iDVD will use. Perhaps, somebody with a little more experience can comment?... A professional DVD encoding software suite will do a multi-pass encoding - once to figure out optimization and then again to render output. That sort of analysis might require an over-night run to make the disc. I have a feeling Apple avoided that in order to make iDVD more consumer friendly. It also avoids stealing market from more professional products like Final Cut.
    You might be able to go into iMovie HD to edit the clips. You could send them to QuickTime, and reduce the bit rate there, then import the QuickTime clips into iDVD.

  • Importing a regular DVD into my Mac and the Burned

    To whom it may concern,
    Hi I'm trying to import a regular DVD into my Mac, but when I try to used imovie the folder containing the files is grey and I can't do anything I'm not sure if this is the best way to import a DVD (movie) and then burn it so I will have a copy. The movie that I wanna import is not an original copy is a copy of the original, but it work on any DVD player as well as in my Mac. I watched all the tutorials and none of them give me a solution. I would appreciate if someone can advised me in this matter.

  • I have a brand new iMac that does not have iDVD. Made a move on iMovie installed a 3rd party burn prog. but DVD won't playback on my regular dvd player. Need to burn one that will. Help!

    My new iMac did not come with iDVD as they are not using iDVD any longer.  I made a movie that I needed to put on a DVD that would play on any external DVD player. After calling Apple twice, they recommened a 3rd party program so I downloaded "Burn-osx" and made the DVD; however when i insert it into my player connected to the TV it gives the message "disk error --playback feature may not be available on this disk".  Ok--now what?  I am up against a time line here--need the DVD for a graduation party! Help! What am I not doing correctly?

    I have a brand new iMac
    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.

    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

    Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others.  None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie. Get iDVD.

  • How do I burn a .mov file to DVD?

    I need to burn an MPEG-2 video file saved as .mov to a DVD that will play in a regular DVD player.
    I have tried opening iDVD and the selecting 'Create a New Project'. When I have selected a location for the project and the main window opens, I go to File > OneStep DVD from Movie...
    My understanding is that when I import a movie file, it will burn it straight to the disc without any further options. It does this, however after a couple of minutes the DVD is ejected blank and iDVD says the burn has completed.
    How can I solve this problem or is there another way to burn a .mov file to DVD?
    Thanks, Dan

    A green screen in an indication that the movie is in a format not supported by iDVD.   It should be in one of these formats:  DV, high-definition video (HDV), MPEG-2 SD, MPEG-2 SD, MPEG-4 SD, MPEG-4 HD, and AVCHD.  (From SDMacUser's post in What input file formats does iDVD...: Apple Support Communities). The post has other requirements that need to be met.
    SD = standard definition.
    Open your movie with QT Player and bring up the Info window for the movie.  It will have the format:
    Another possible reason is the Energy Saving settings on the Mac.  Turn off energy saving and screen saver before starting the save as disk image or burn.

  • CS5 - Burning HD footage onto a DVD

    I don't have a Blu-Ray burner but would like to burn some footage from my HDV camera onto a DVD-R while maintaining the HD resolution. I also have yet to upgrade to CS5. I've heard said that you can convert to AVCHD and burn to a standard DVD that will work in some Blu-Ray players such as the PS3 using a combination of programs including Nero.
    So, is there a way to do this using Premiere & Encore CS5? I don't want to downconvert it but just burn as much playable HD footage with menus to a standard DVD. If it is possible, what is the process? If it isn't possible with just Premiere/Encore, is there a better way? Thanks.

    Procedure is very easy: make a BluRay iso (img) in Encore and burn it with Nero or ImgBurn to a dvd. All you need is a BR-player either pc or standalone. No need for a BR-burner.
    A regular dvd holds about 20 minutes of HDV/HD.

  • Encore 1.5 - How to burn a HDV 1080i clip - Urgent ?

    Hello All;
    I need to know as quickly as possible how I can burn a HDV 1080i clip using Encore 1.5 ?
    Tim

    Second possibility is to encode to a VC-1 (WMV 9 Pro) and write to a ROM folder on the DVD.
    If going down to SD (as advised earlier) first, then encoding to MPEG-2 from the downscale, the results are still greatly improved when compared to straight DV resolution and the resulting DVD you make is going to look a lot better for using HDV (IMHO, anyway).
    It's a great codec and I am surprised it has not got a greater penetration than it has done - and if you're working in HDV regularly, I can highly recommend you go buy a copy of Cineform AspectHD or ProspectHD - especially as when plugged into Premiere Pro it really does boost performance massively.
