IMovie 10: Create project file to be burned using Toast 11

**I am brand new to the community so if I commit some faux pas, mea culpa in advance!  I searched previous postings but didn't find exactly what I was looking for.**
I created a photo slide show in iMovie 10 with transitions, some over layed text, and music.  Approximately 1.5 hours in length and over 14GB.
Searching the Net I came across PC Classes Online which provided instructions on how to take my creation and burn to Toast 11.  However, something must have been lost in the translation.
Their instructions directed me to select my movie, click Share and then File.  (followed on screen instructions)  Once my movie was converted to file, then drag and drop into Toast for burning.  However, the file created was in .mp4 format, which does not translate to DVD format.  My DVD would not play on my iMac or my TV.
I have tried multiple times to go through that process again, hoping to find a selection that would result in something other than .mp4.  To no avail.  What did I do wrong?

Hi
In iMovie'13 (v.10.0.x) - Share as a File and as 480p (NO OTHER - as Video-DVD standard can not be any batter whatever tool used)
Save it onto Deaktop/Finder to be easy to find.
Close iMovie - Start Toast 11
Here SELECT to do a VIDEO DVD
Then drag and drop Your movie file into the big area to the right in this window.
At bottom click on the big red (or green) button
Do as suggested - DO NOT PUT IN ANY NEW DVD until asked to do so !
Set down BURN SPEED to x2 (max x4) as this gives a much better result.
I use Verbatim DVD-R disks - and too a very good result !
Yours Bengt W

    I use imovie to create videos. When I burn the video to DVD and play it back there is digital breakup in the playback from the DVD. The digital breakup does not show in playback on the computer. I understand there is a file I need to delete and reboot the computer and imovie will rebuild the file in the program. Help!

    My method is to use the DAW in standard recording mode, and set up the camcorder entirely separately.  After recording, I automate the audio mix with fader moves and effects, then export ("bounce to disk") a full-fidelity AIFF, 16-bit 48 kHz stereo file (most videos use 48, not 44.1).  I use iMovie '11 to import the video from the camera, then import the stereo audio file and match it up to the camera audio by dragging it into the iMovie Project.  Make the waveforms visible, it's not too hard to align.
    Then, use iMovie's "Export as Quicktime" feature.  Here, by going through the menus and options, you can control the audio compression (for example, 256k instead of 128, although 128 seems to be enough for YouTube).
    AppleMan1958 posted a YouTube video about controlling iMovie's export options that may help:

  • When trying to burn a playlist to a blank CD, iTunes 10.3.1 won't recognize the blank CD I've inserted (Verbatim CD-R). I've burned using these CDs before, this is a recent problem. Not the burner, as I can burn using Toast. iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    When trying to burn a playlist to a blank CD, iTunes 10.3.1 won't recognize the blank CD I've inserted (Verbatim CD-R). I've burned using these CDs before, this is a recent problem. Not the burner, as I can burn using Toast. iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    What kind of CD are you burning (Audio or MP3)?
    If you're burning an MP3 CD, the songs must already
    be in mp3 format.
    If not, iTunes will tell you that you have no songs
    in the playlist.
    M
    I was making an audio cd. But I have since found out what the problem was. The files in my PLAYLIST I converted to aiff, since they were SDll files (I thought they were similar to AIFF, and they PLAY on Itunes...just won't burn.) When I selected the songs in the playlist and converted them...I thought all those files were converted, They were not. The converted files went into my LIBRARY, even tho I selected the ones in the playlist...and once I exchanged the SDll versions of the songs in my playlist. THEN they burned fine...but still...it's confusing..you say convert..it says it's been converted..and what they don't say is it's not been converted inside the playlist...where I had selected the songs...It just ADDED aiff versions..but only in the library...Anyway, that's what happened. But it's strange that it PLAYS SDll but won't burn them....and you'd think, logically..the ones you selected would change...but they don't. Playlists are mainly pointers to the actual files I guess...a sort of Alias..
    At least it works now. But it's sad that the latest itunes does more, but also does LESS...as I used to be able to burn SDll files. Now I'll have to convert all my files to AIFF, and mp3's as I assume my ipod video won't play anything but mp3's?

  • Using iMovie to save project files to external hard drive?

    I have a MacBook Pro with very limited space on the internal hard disk drive. I also have a few FireWire external hard drives.
    A friend recently gave me his Hitachi DZ-HS300A mini-DVD camcorder so I could copy footage off of it, load it into my machine, edit it and upload it (several minutes) to YouTube. He can't do this because he lives in a remote area where there is no broadband yet.
    I almost never use iMovie. I was wondering if there is a way to save the project file to an external FireWire drive so that there will be no large video files clogging up my laptop's internal hard drive. Can this be done? Is there an iMove preference I have to change?

    You should generally leave the iMovie Project file on the boot drive. The Project File is mainly a small text file with in and out points.
    The iMovie Event file is where the video assets are stored. You can store events to an external hard drive in two ways:
    1) As you import from the camera, you will see an import screen. You can select the external drive on the import screen
    2) If the event is already on your internal drive, you can click View/Events By Volume. Now you can drag and drop the event to the external drive in the Events SOurce List in iMovie.
    For your external drive to be visible to iMovie, it must be formatted HFS+ or HFS+ (journalled).

  • How can I import iMovie HD 6 project files into Final Cut Express HD3?

    Trying to import iMovie HD 6 projects into FCE HD 3 but 2 windows appear:
    Importing XML data
    and below it a
    SAVE window
    If I click SAVE, both windows disappear, a file with nothing in it appears in browser and when try to play it in the viewer, there is just black....
    Is this all because FCE HD 3 won't support iMove HD 6? so I will need to upgrade to FCE HD 4?

    Use File>Import>Files.
    iMovie Projects as a whole do not Import correctly whereas individual clips do but will need the audio rendering to play correctly.

  • IDVD image files not always burning using Disk Utility

    I am using iDVD 06 to create media, from FCE .mov, and have been using the "Create DVD image file" option so that I can make quick copies for clients as needed. Recently a LOT of my gens, using Disk Utility, have been rejected as 'not verifiable' hence wasting a good disk. Some of them do get created successfully. I am currently using WINDATA DVD+R disks. Not sure if this is an iDVD problem or Disk Utility problem frankly. Have reverted back to creating multiple copies in iDVD after the initial 'slow' burn of the original. Thanks

    I am currently using WINDATA DVD+R disks. Not sure if this is an iDVD problem or Disk Utility problem frankly
    There is a third choice that I think is the most likely problem source - WINDATA DVD+R disks themselves.
    I'm 'not big' on + media for single layer disks anyway, but if you are supplying clients with discs you burned, you really ought to use good quality media like Verbatim or Maxell.
    BTW, I always recommend reducing the burn speed in Disk Utility to 4x or lower (I use 2x)

  • Does pages create pdf files or should i use adobe

    I need to have software that can read and create pdf files.  Does "pages" do this or should I use adobe?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Pages can create PDF files. To do it, create a document and, when you have finished it, choose the File menu (on the menu bar) > Export > PDF, so you will be able to read this document with any other PDF software.
    However, Pages can't read PDF files. To read PDF files, Mac OS X comes with Preview, so you don't need to get Adobe Reader to use PDF files on your Mac

  • DVD MENU, burn using TOAST

    Has anyone tried this, building a menu using DVDSP, after you build your menu -- you have 2 folders, Video TS, Audio TS. Do you have to burn your DVD using burner inside DVDSP? Or can I drag those TS folders into TOAST and burn it there. If so, where do I drag these files? Data? or Video?
    Appreciate your time and suggestions...
    KChen

    KChen:
    I'm a little confused about what you mean with "DVD
    MENU" . . . but the answer is yes, you can use Toast
    to burn your <b<disc</b>.
    In Toast 7 go to Data and choose format DVD-ROM
    UDF. NAme your disc and drag both VIDEO_TS and
    AUDIO_TS folder inside. Burn.
    Another approach is creating a disc image of
    your build in DVDSP and use that img file in Toast or
    OSX Disk Utility. You can find here a complete
    tutorial about Creating Disc Image in DVDSP (from
    www.kenstone.net site).
    Hope it helps !
    Alberto
    Dear Silal:
    You know how DVDSP allows you to build your menu with a nice template and navigation buttons. When you burn DVD using Toast, it only gives you one button.
    So my question is, how do you use that nice menu layout that DVDSP offers, and then using Toast to burn your disc. Do you always have to open DVDSP to burn your disc? Or can you use Toast to burn your disc and keeping it stored away so everytime you want to make a copy, all you have to do is use Toast.
    The second part of my question, if I want to burn my disc using toast with the template built from DVDSP, do I burn it by dragging in the TS folders into DATA or VIDEO in Toast.
    I hope this is clearer, and I appreciate any suggestions, I'm very new at doing this.
    Many thanks!!!

  • I shared a movie in iMovie and created a file with the movie but then now I cannot go back in and find the original version to make future edits. What am I missing here? how do i go back and edit the original?

    Hi! I need help! I created an imovie and then shared it and cannot go back in and edit the roigianl now. I am new to Imovie and am trying to figure this out quickly as i have to get this done by tonight. Thank you

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

  • Problem Creating Project (Flash Builder 4) which uses LiveCycle DS

    I have a web app which uses LiveCycle DS 2.6.1, however, when I try to create a new flex project I am getting this error:
    Only LiveCycle Data Services 2.6 and higher are supported.
    Here are the steps in Flash Builder 4
    1. File -> New -> Flex Project
    2. Set project name
    3. Point folder to existing source code
    4. Change "Application server type" to "J2EE"
    5. Check the "Use remote object acces service"
    6. Select "LiveCycle Data Services ES" radio button
    7. Click next
    8. Un-check "Use default location for local LiveCycle Data Services server
    9. Set "Root Folder" to "C:\tomcat\webapps\myapp"
       -- in myapp, I have WEB-INF\flex of course
    10. Set root URL and context root
    11. Click "Validate Configuration"
    This gives me the error: "Only LiveCycle Data Services 2.6 and higher are supported."
    Any ideas?  How is Flash Builder determining the version of LiveCycle?

    Hi Jeremy,
    I tried the steps you mentioned and cannot reproduce the problem. You mentioned you are pointing your project location to existing source code. Was there a previous FB project at that location? Was that project using an older version of LCDS before? If you create a new project and point it to a new emoty project location folder (or use default workspace location), do you still see the problem? Any more information you can give me to help reproduce the problem would help.
    thanks!

  • Creating excel file on client machine using oracle pl/sql code

    Hi All,
    I have a situation where in i need to create an excel output file in my client machine, but using UTL_FILE i understood that i need to create the directory on server and i need to read and write on server itself.
    Is there any other way where we can create a excel file other than oracle server, bcos this is used only once and there is no scheduler to execute on server.
    Please do the needful.
    Thanks,

    The server should create the data set required by the client - do all the (intense) server processing that servers do well. This data set is then send to the client. The client is responsible for rendering that data set.. or saving it to the client machine storage if needed.
    Within PL/SQL that is quite easy to do using the most common/standard client-server in use today - web based client-server.
    The client is a web browser. It makes a call to the web server, that is serviced by a PL/SQL database procedure - a so-called web enabled procedure. It processes the request from the web browser, and returns a dynamic response. This response can range from HTML and XML, to video and image streams - and also CSV (Character Separated Values) data.
    By default, most web browsers will use the local client spreadsheet application (like MS Excel) to open the CSV response received. Many web browsers will also provide an alternate option of saving that response as a CSV file (that can then be opened later using MS Excel).
    Straight forward and basic client-server - and easily done using PL/SQL. Even easier done using (freeware) Oracle APEX (Application Express). APEX is a PL/SQL software suite that provides a web development system (only web browser required for development) and a run-time system to run the web application you have created.

  • Can Acrobat X Standard create PDF files from Microsoft Word, using "CMYK" color (required by most book printers) instead of "RGB" color?
