IDVD creates a img file, how do I burn this into a video DVD?

I do not have a DVD drive on my mac, so I sent my img file to my pc, burnt it using Nero, and the result is a non-working video DVD.
Please help!!
Thanks!

Check out http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3538993&#3538993 for help on cross platform image file use.
I suspect you ended creating a DVD disc that wasn't in the proper UDF format when you burned with Nero.

  • 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!!

    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.

  • I have a typical 720x480 sequence in final cut that i've exported as a quicktime movie.  I put it in DVD studio pro 4, made a simple menu, but it never burns correctly.  How do I burn a simple one video DVD that actually has reasonable quality?

    I don't understand why burning DVDs has so many problems.

    There are a number of tutorials that might help you.

    DVD SP gives you a lot of control over the DVD authoring process. But with that, you also have the ability to make a lot of bad discs. iDVD will lead you down a narrow path. It will always make a disc that plays, but you have very little control or customization. If all you want to do is make a simple DVD that plays, then you might be better off with iDVD.

  • IDVD can creat .img files but doesn't burn it from IDVD

    Hello,
    I encounter 2 problems when I am creating a larger IDVD project with many pictures
    1. When I am trying to burn a DVD from IDVD it get ejected befor he even tries to burn it. Creating a .img file and burning it afterwards works, how could I solve the problem, I want to burn it directley from IDVD and not passing through a img file.
    2. IDVD takes really very very long time importing pictures from Iphoto and very often freeezes or takes that long tat this can impossible be normal.
    Thanks in advance for any help I could get.

    What was the original source? Do you still have it? I am importing .mov files now that were converted using mpegstream clip from a .dv file to an apple motion jpeg to improve quality. I am importing fine. Appleman1958 seems to always have the answers, but he will need more info....what was the original source and what were the exact export specs.

  • When using Pages to create an EPUB file, how would I force a page brake?

    when using Pages to create an EPUB file, how would I force a page brake?

    Sory Peter but you don't seem to understand.
    If you pick up an e-book by random on the iBook Store, you will see that professional e-books ALWAYS start their chapters at the top of a new page, whatever the reader, the color of the page or the size of the text are.
    I know how to add a new chapter with the use of the appropriate style in Pages but I want to be able to divide SECTIONS as well.
    What I want to to do is to force a page break in between two paragraphs and apparently, this option is not possible with Pages.

  • 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.

I cannot download iDVD or any other professional programs like DVD Studioor ... from App store. Please help me how do I burn my short films to DVD? Also please tell me any other free programs alternate it for burn DVD with putting menus.

    Hi
    iDVD is not or never been free !
    there are up-dates but still You need the original iDVD v. 7.x.x to use them.
    Best of program - not sold by Apple any more but on Amazon or e-bay in boxed versions of iLife 11
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • Some snaps show up as black screens when I try to view them as single pictures.Even when I run them in slideshows they show up as black screens.These are jpeg files.How can I avoid this happening?

    Some snaps show up as black screens when I try to view them as single pictures.Even when I run them in slideshows they show up as black screens.These are jpeg files.How can I avoid this happening?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • I've created a movie now how do I burn it to a DVD?

    I've created a movie now how do I burn it to a DVD?  I'm new in this forum so I may need help here, too.

    When you finish your iMovie project, use the Share Menu to Share to Media Browser in Large or Medium size.
    (Shareing to iTunes will work, too)
    Then in iDVD, you can see the Media Browser at the lower right of the window. You can drag your project in from there.

    Using a standard midi file, how do I get this to an output port for playing it on an extern midi-keyboard?

    Hi
    Create 1 or more External Instrument tracks as required.
    You could send the MIDIFile to a track set to "All" MIDI channels, or if needed, you could split the file by channel and create indivisual tracks for each.
