IDVD Error Message

Hello -
After going through the entire burning process on iDVD5, the message "Burning Finished-errors were found during the burning process" appears. There is nothing burned on the DVD - any suggestions ? Thanks.

Hi, Mateo,
Do a search in iDVD for #1 errors. There used to be a lot of info about it....I can't remember what the causes might be. I think early on, in iDVD 4 there were some issues with MM fonts on the hard drive.
I am sure there is more info now. Start here-->http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1018646&#1018646
and look also here-->http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1012598&#1012598
See if these have info that helps, and post back if you still are having problems.

IDVD error message that iDVD unexpectedly quit.

iDVD error message that iDVD unexpectedly quit. Every time I share from iMovie to iDVD and begin the burn process it comes back with an error message that iDVD has unexpectedly quit. It did not seem to do this before I loaded iLife. How do I resolve this? One thing I do know is that I am limited in hard drive space and I am clearing some of this up until I can purchase a larger hard drive. I have an external hard drive but I am using the internal hard drive to build the movie. [email protected]

Hi Ron,
Been to S.N.O.B.? I love that restaurant!!!
This frequently helps solve some problems. Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
You'll need to reset some Preferences.
But I think your real problem is probably free space on your start-up drive, based on your comments. You should have 20GB+ free.

IDVD error message when sharing from imovie

1. When "sharing" from imovie to idvd, error message appears reading: "unable to publish project due to error-41."
2. Successfully "shared" once, with the first clip upside down.
Thank you for your insights.

Hi
Most probably it's the Start-Up/Boot/Mac OS hard disk that has less than 5Gb free space.
To let iDVD run OK - This Start-up hard disk should have 25Gb or more due to that
Your Mac is running a sort of UNIX (Mac OS) and this makes Mac OS and iDVD to use
lot's of temp files - AND they can not be addressed to any other hard disk at all.
More RAM - will not help
External/Second hard disk will if You first formatte it as Mac OS Extended and
move material over to this (or use it as Start-up hard disk)
External Start-up hard disk must be FireWire - NO USB2 will do this.
Must be Mac OS Extended formatted
Western Digital - My Book Serie - Can't do this.
My Lacie - works gladly as secondary start-up hard disk.

IDVD error message "buffer inderrun"

I am trying to burn a quicktime h264 movie in iDVD but keep getting the error message "The recording device reported the illegal request:Buffer underrun. (0x21, 0x02.)"
What does this mean... and what can I do.

Hello corkscrew,
a buffer underrun occurs when the data flow to the burner is interrupted. as the burner can't simply pause the burn process, the result is aborting the burn.
try this way:
1. iDVD is NOT a disc burning app, so leave that work to software designed for it. Instead use iDVD's "Save as Disc Image" option (File > Save as Disk Image). This creates an .img file on your HDD, that can be stored for future use and gives you the option to preview your DVD on your Mac before burning to disc.
2. Use Disc Utility or Toast to burn your DVD at slow speed. 4x is acceptable, 2x (... or even 1x) is better.
3. Use high quality DVD-R (not DVD+R) media (e.g. Verbatim) to minimize burn errors and compatibility issues. Make sure the DVD is compatible with slow burn speed (e.g. 1x-8x)
hope this helps

IDVD error message during Multiplexing

I'm trying to burn a project in iDVD 6. I think that my superdrive may be toast. Here is the error message:
Errors were found during the burning process
The recording device reported the media error. Power calibration area error
Multiplex error (ox73, oxo3)
There was a problem during mulitplexing/burning.
Does anyone know what would be wrong here? I can burn a data disc with no problems but when I burn to a DVD I get all sorts of problems. I never had this happen before. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
-Chuck

Power calibration area error
This happens when your drives is doing a test burn on a portion of the disk reserved for this calibration.
When it fails, it means:
1) You have a failing drive
or
2) You have a bad blank DVD-R (or DVD+R, etc.)
or
3) You have a dirty laser lens on your drive.
Let's hope it's 2 or 3.
for 2 - Try another brand of DVD-R, I like Verbatim.
for 3 - use a CD/DVD lens cleaning disk, or another method to clean the drive. (NOTE - some users don't like these cleaning disks, and have claimed they have harmed their drives - obviously I disagree, but keep your cleaning disk as clean as possible!)
Try one of these, and then try making a data DVD from the finder. When this works OK , go back to iDVD. I always reccommend using "Save as Disk Image" and then burn the image with Disk Utility or Toast.

Error message when burning HD with iDVD

When i try to burn a HD movie directly from iMovieHD( v. 5,02) with iDVD( v. 5.0.1), i get an error message code OX8002006D, followed by another:
"Burning Finished.---errors were found during burning process."
and "there was a problem during multiplexing/burning"
and the disk is ejected blank.
With a Standard Definition movie, using the same DVD-R or DVD+R disks(4X) and same procedure, i have no problem. The movie was only about 2 minutes long with about 19 GB available.
Anybody out there who knows what's wrong?

There are a bunch of folders within your home folder, you may want to decide what exactly you want to back up or not.
Besides your personal folders (Desktop, Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures), you may want to decide whether you need to back up the library folder. The library folder generally contains preferences for most of your applications, and also caches and applications support files. These can become really big in some cases (Mine is more than 8GB, will not fit on a dual layer DVD). And the Library>Caches folder contains temporary files that will change from time to time, this might be the cause of your previous error since the shortcut is no longer valid.
Once you chose your files and make sure they will fit on your blank CD/DVD, you can just do what you did before, drag the folders to a Burn folder, make sure you are not running any other apps, so they won't be modifying the files.
There are programs you can use to backup to CD/DVD, Disc burner like Toast will span across several discs if the data does not fit on one. For a more automated solution, Carbon Copy Cloner (http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html) can backup to disc images which you can then burn to discs. I personally don't know a lot backup programs that provide good support for CD/DVDs, so I'll leave this to other folks.
If you are going to backup regularly, I would recommend spending some money on an external drive. You can find quite a few free software for automated backup and saves money and time on burning CD/DVDs. Plus you have the advantage of being able to boot from the external drive should anything bad happened to your internal one.

I am getting an error message -41 when I try to send my project to IDVD

I am getting and error message - 41 when i try to send my video project to IDVD. Does anyone know what i have to fix?

Hi
The Error -41 mFulErr Memory full (open) or file won't fit (load) - means that memory is full
Memory can be more than one thing
• RAM - usually is enough and rarely give this error
• Start-Up Hard disk - is TO FULL - very common origin to this signal
• Other hard disks - Usually do not have any thing to do to this
So first idea is - HOW Much free space is there on Your Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
My minimum is 25Gb free space and especially if iDVD is to be used.
This space is needed by iDVD and Mac OS temp. files and can not be addressed elswhere. Has to be here.
Secondly - I never in any version of iMovie use - Share to iDVD - BUT I - Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD) this I import in iDVD and result are so much better.

Project Duration error message when loading short iDVD 5 project in iDVD 6

My iDVD 5 project is very short - a total of about 7 minutes (including video and an audio loop for the menu). The video clips were exported as DV NTSC non-self-contained quicktimes from Final Cut Pro.
When I attempt to load the project into iDVD 6, I get the following error message:
Project duration
Your project exceeds the maximum content duration. To burn this project, remove some content.
Twirling down the triangle for more info gives:
Project:
- total project duration: -2147483648:-2147483648 minutes
- total project capacity: 429496729 GB (max. available: 4.172 GB)
Also, trying to open the Project Info window crashes iDVD.
I haven't attempted burning, but I'm pretty sure it'd be a waste of a DVD.
My only thought is that iDVD 6 somehow is misreading the non-self-contained quicktimes, but I've never had an issue with them before, and it'd be a drag to redo all my projects with space-hogging self-contained versions.

Many people had trouble opening iDVD 5 projects in iDVD 6 when it first came out. My one iDVD 5 wouldn't open at all.

I keep getting the following error message while sharing my iMovie to iDVD. "Unable to prepare project for publishing" error (-2125).

I keep getting the following error message while sharing my iMovie to iDVD. "Unable to prepare project for publishing" error (-2125). I'm running iMovie 09 v. 8.0.6 on a iMac with OSX v 10.6.8, 2Ghz core duo, 1GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM. Any ideas why?

That particular error comes up for a number of reasons, sometimes it's the size of the movie you're trying to export. Bengt Wärleby a longtime contributor to the iMovie Discussion Group has advised a number of people on this error code, so I am going to link to his latest advice he's given to anyone trying to export to DVD from iMovie: Bengt's tips for great DVDs.
Specifically, try bypassing Share to iDVD by using Share to Media Browser instead.
In the Share to Media Browser dialog box choose the Large Size.
When(If?) it gets through that process, quit iMovie altogehter then go to iDVD.
Create a new project and click on the Media button near the lower right hand side of the Project Window.
Then click the Movies button in the Browser window just above that.
Under the iMovie star icon you should see the name of the project you shared out from iMovie.
Drag that into the project and burn the DVD.
If it's still to large or you get the same -2125 error code trying to Share using the Medium size instead. But again if you really get stuck consult Bengt Warleby's User tips:

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?

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.

I am try to burn a dvd from iPhoto in iDVD, when I click burn I get error message I don't have SuperDrive and dvd is ejected. I have burned dvd's before. What am I doing wrong?

I am try to burn a iPhoto slideshow on to a dvd in iDVD, when I click burn I get error message and dvd is ejected. I have burned dvd's before. What am I doing wrong?

error message I don't have SuperDrive and dvd is ejected
If you don't have a SuperDrive you will not be able to burn DVDs.
Did iDVD come preinstalled on your Mac? If it did then you should have a SuperDrive and be able to burn DVDS. Check the Disk Burning section of System Information
to see what you can read and write with your optical drive:

Error message in iDVD with Slide show from iPhoto 09

I have about 130 photos in a slide show with music in iPhoto 09. The slide show settings are for the whole slide show are Ken Burns effect, each slide about 8.1 seconds, random transitions, and music fit to the slide show..I Went to "Share" Send to DVD.
In DVD, I type in a title and a photo in the drop zone, then I chose as a Burn as a Disc Image. It does some encoding and then a I get an error message when it finishes that says " There was an error during the rendering of the menus/slideshows. The burning process has been canceled".. This basically tells me Nothing!!
What is wrong? How can I fix this? Using OS 10.5.7 intel dual core. iMac desktop.
Previously, I had successfully created a DVD of this same slide show, made one DVD, but after seeing in on my DVD player, I tried to fix some things, like fitting the music to the slide show, but that is about all. Frustrated!!
Any help will be appreciated....Thanks.

This sounds more like an iDVD issue than an iPhoto one. I would post on the iDVD forum here:

Anyone have any idea how to fix this problem. I have reloaded the software from the original disk and have downloaded the latest update and still get the same error.

Did you delete all receipts with iDVD in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder before installing the new copy? If not then do so and delete the new application also.

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all necessary updaters: Apple - Support - Downloads
