I want to burn a dvd which will play as soon as it is in the dvd player.

Hi people,
I'm very new to FCP and the world of video and would be very grateful for some help.
I have edited a 6min video in FCP and now want to export it ready to burn onto dvd.
Is the best way to do this through compressor? and if so what settings is good?
I also understand that I have to use DVD SP to burn the dvd right? I don't want any fancy menu pages, just a straight dvd that will play as soon as it hits the dvd player.
Silly question but how can this be done?
Sorry to sound stupid but we all have to start somewhere right?

Here's a great little tutorial to accomplish what you're looking for

  • After buying and downloading videos from itunes, how can I burn them to a DVD that will play in a standard DVD player?  I have tried burning the playlist from itunes, and the disc would not play in anything I put it into.

    Out of excitement, I bought both seasons of the tv show "Sym Bionic Titan" from the itunes store, since I can't find it anywhere else, in hopes of being able to burn them to dvds and watch them.  When I burned the disc from itunes, it would not play in any player I put it in.  Not my dvd player, not my ps3, nothing.  So the only place I can watch the show is on my computer, which is definitely not what I had in mind when I purchased it.  Is there a way to burn the videos to a dvd that will play in a dvd player?

    Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

  • How do i burn a movie to a dvd that will play in a dvd player?

    How do I burn a movie to a dvd that will play in a dvd player?

    If you want to burn a video file which doesn't have any copy protection (DRM), there is a great free App called 'burn OSX'. Google it if you want to use it.
    If its a iTunes movie, and you want to play it on your TV you could use a cable connected to your iPod/iPhone/iPad or use an Apple TV box.

  • I've been using a flip video camera since 2009 and all of my videos are in the flipshare library.  What is the best way to burn all these videos to a DVD that will play on my DVD player/tv?

    I've been using a flip video camera since 2009 and all of my videos are in the flipshare library.  What is the best way to burn all these videos to a DVD that will play on my DVD player/tv?  The flipshare library is taking up too much space on my Macbook and I wanted to delete these videos once they were all tranferred to DVDs.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • I want to create stored procedure which will give output rows from "values that are passed as one parameter (comma seperated) to store procedure".

    Hello,
    I want to create stored procedure which will give output rows from "values that are passed as one parameter (comma seperated) to store procedure".
    Suppose , 
    Parameter value : person 1,person2,person3 
    table structure : 
    Project Name | officers 1 | officers 2
    here, officers 1 or officers 2 may contain names of multiple people.
    expected OUTPUT : distinct list(rows) of projects where person 1 or person 2 or person 3 is either officer1 or officer 2. 
    please explain or provide solution in detail 
    - Thanks

    Hi Visakh,
    Thanks for reply.
    But the solution you provided giving me right output only if officer 1 or officer 2 contains single value , not with comma seperated value.
    Your solution is working fine for following scenario : 
    Project 
    Officers 1
    Officers 2
    p1
    of11
    off21
    p2
    of12
    off22
    with parameter : of11,off22 : it will give expected output
    And its not working in case of :
    Project 
    Officers 1
    Officers 2
    p1
    of11,of12
    off21,off23
    p2
    of12,of13
    off22,off24
    with parameter : of11,off22 : it will not give any row in output
    I need patten matching not exact match :) 
    ok
    if thats the case use this modified logic
    CREATE PROC GetProjectDetails
    @PersonList varchar(5000)
    AS
    SELECT p.*
    FROM ProjectTable p
    INNER JOIN dbo.ParseValues(@PersonList,',')f
    ON ',' + p.[officers 1] + ',' LIKE '%,' + f.val + ',%'
    OR ',' + p.[officers 2] + ',' LIKE '%,' + f.val + ',%'
    GO
    Keep in mind that what you've done is a wrong design approach
    You should not be storing multiples values like this as comma separated list in a single column. Learn about normalization . This is in violation of 1st Normal Form

  • I am trying to burn a slideshow onto a dvd that will play on a standard dvd player and tv, but everytime I copy it I cannot play the disc except on my Macbook

    I am trying to burn a slideshow onto a dvd that will play on a standard dvd and tv

    You can't just copy the slideshow to a DVD as, you've found out, that won't play on a TV. You need to use a program that will render it into DVD format, complete with the proper lead in and trailers. I use Toast to do that, however, there are other programs that can do that too.

  • With iDVD no longer available (ahhh) how do I burn my iMovie onto a DVD so will play on a DVD player?  Apple says to get a 3rd party software.  Anyone have a recommendation?

    Please someone help me find a software to burn iMovies on DVD so will play on DVD player.  I'm so frustrated that this new iMAC doesn't have a program to do this.  Thanks!!

    I'm so frustrated that this new iMAC doesn't have a program to do this.
    Tell Apple:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    IDVD is included with iLife 11 ON DISK.
    For making movies there is no alternative or substitute for iDVD. (Buy it while you still can.)
    I've tried Burn and Toast and many others, iDVD is by far the best.

    For the best quality, I use iMovie 06 with iDVD 11.

  • How do I burn dvd that will play in dvd player

    How do I burn a DVD that will play in DVD player for my TV?  Example, iPhoto images, Utube images, etc.

    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • How do I separate short movie clips loaded from my digital camera to iPhoto 11 at the same time pics are downloaded and how do I get those video clips to a dvd that will play on a dvd player

    When loading pics to iphoto 11 from my camera, occassionaly it will include some video clips with the description of Movxxxx. I wonder if someone could direct me to some straight forward instructions as to how to transfer these video (movie) clips, which now exist in iphoto, to a dvd that will play on a dvd player as one might  expect to see a video play, including the audio that was captured at the time of filming.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer this novice.

    You need to open iMovie and it will have a event library called iPhoto Videos, click on that and the videos will load in the window next to it, then you make a new project in iMovie.  Then open iDVD and make a new project then import the movies to the program then burn to a DVD..

  • Created a movie in IMOVIE and transferred it to dvd but cannot get it to play on my dvd player.  i downloaded the free Burn program since i don't have idvd on my new mac  the dvd comes up disk error or cannot read

    created a movie in IMOVIE and transferred it to dvd but cannot get it to play on my dvd player.  i downloaded the free Burn program since i don't have idvd on my new mac  the dvd comes up disk error or cannot read.  I am using a dvd-r dvd and my dvd player says that it uses this type of dvd.  Any suggestions.  I spoke to an Apple Support person who helped me burn the dvd but it still didn't work...help???

    There's a difference between a data DVD, and a DVD-Video.  I believe you made a data DVD, which can't be played in a video player.  The Burn feature of the Finder can't author a DVD-V, just data discs.   
    I assume you made a Project, and put clips from your Event Library into the Project.  But then, how did you output your Project, using the SHARE menu? 
    When I pull down iMovie '11s SHARE menu, "iDVD..." is one of the options.  It's the job of iDVD to make the menu that appears when you insert a DVD into your player (that says the title, and chapters, and extras, etc.).  You need software that will made a DVD-V disc.  Lacking that, you might be able to go to Share/Export Movie... or Share/Export using QuickTime... to get your video into a format that software like Roxio's Toast could burn.
