Import of VOB files from DVD are cropped to 540x480, instead of maintaining native full raster of 720x480.

When I import the VOB files from a DVD, they are automatically cropped to 540x480, which strangely is 9:8 aspect ratio, instead of maintaining native full raster of 720x480. Inside of Windows Media Player, Quicktime, Streamclip, and DVD-Lab Pro, the DVD's VOB files open with the correct aspect ratio, and the resolution is indicated to be 720x480.

The answer is to move to Pro Tools Adobe is not concerned with you anymore. They are only concerned with their profits.

When i click on itunes to open, message says: the registry settings used by the itune drivers for importing and burning cds and dvds are missing. this can result from installing other cd burning software. Reinstall itunes. I'm inexperienced. Please help

When I click on itunes, I get a message that says, "the registry settings used by the itune drivers for importing and burning cds and dvds are missing. this can result from installing other cd burning software. Reinstall itunes." I am a really inexperienced computer user. My computer is a windows 7. Would someone please walk me through this or tell me where to find information on how to do this. Thanking in advance, Laurie

Check out this Apple article -> iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
The article will walk you through reinstalling iTunes and then checking for or creating device filters. Did it help? Did you run into any problems?

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Imported PAL VOB files are misinterpreted as 540 pixels high

I'm trying to import PAL VOB files into an FCP 5.0.4 sequence and though the import and playback goes well, the files are wrongly reported as being 720x540 instead of 720x576, leaving me with unusable footage because the interlaced PAL video is rendered with horizontal stripes of alternating interlaced/fused fields.
The only way to restore some degree of quality to the footage is to apply an anti-flicker filter at maximum strength, but it's a crummy solution considering the video height should have been properly interpreted in the first place.
Could someone please tell me how I can import these vob files with their proper dimensions?
Thanks for any help.

download MPEG Streamclip
open the vob file in MPEG streamclip and use File > Export to Quicktime to convert it to DV PAL (or whatever codec you are using)
Compressor: Apple DV PAL
Quality: 85% (or higher)
Sound: Uncompressed
Frame Size: 720 X 576 (DV-PAL)

problem importing a large file from a Sony DR60 external drive to FCP. Never had a problem before first two shot clips are captured in log and transfer but the larger 2 hour clip only downloads the first few seconds. Any advice?

I can think of 2 things to check.

Partial import of vob files

I am having an issue with importing VOB files from some Canon Mini-DVD cameras. I have 3 cameras, two different models. When I do an import of the VOB files, I get just the first 5 to 10 seconds of the whole file. I can import these same files into Elements with no problems, but I'm wanting to switch over to PP because of all of the other abilities.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why it is only seeing the first 10 seconds of the VOB files? I have read through quite a few of the threads here and found one that was doing a "copy" of all of the VOB files into one VOB file. I tried that, and it to only brings in 10 seconds.
It just seems strange that it works in Elements 7.x, but not in Premiere Pro 4.1.
As an option, if I wanted to export the files out of Elements and put them into PP, what would be the best format / settings to use to maintain the highest possible quality?
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can offer.

Well, after four log-ins, I finally get to post, or so I think. Man, I love "jive-software!" NOT!
OK, where was I?
Glad that you have a workaround. Though my conversion software is almost 100%, there are those times. Why PrE can do it correctly, and PrPro cannot is a mystery. I have done all that I can think of to find the difference, but just cannot see it. Gotta' be there someplace.
As for PrE handling Assets, that do not work on PrPro, it is a consumer program, and is probably more lenient, than is PrPro. Afterall, it could Import from VOB two generations before PrPro could, though there were still some issues, but these were due to the formation of the VOB's and what they contained. A badly formed VOB still give either program fits.
Good luck, and we'll both just use PrE, when necessary.

How to turn VOB files into DVD Movie

I came across a computer that had something like a "DVD MOVIE" file.
It was basically vob files packaged inside a "DVD MOVIE" so when you clicked on it, it would
play like a dvd movie. I have extracted some VOB files from a DVD disc to have
a "VIDEO_TS" folder containing the movie, but of course I can only play the VOB files
in a program like VLC...my question is - What do i need to do to put these vob files into
this "DVD FILE" folder or whatever so i can just click on it and it play a normal dvd?
It may have said "Movie file".......thanks.

I use Roxio Toast which converts and burns the VIDEO_TS folder with the VOB files into a playable DVD. It does not come cheaply but is well worth the money. There are also a lot of converters around that will shrink and convert your VOB files to .avi or .mp4 or whatever you prefer. Just do a google search or go to the App Store. MPEGStreamclip is a free program that is an excellent converter.

What can I do to correct this error: The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. The drive works fine when I burn a CD using Media Player.

What can I do to correct this error: The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes. I have reinstalled several times but it hasn't changed this error message. Why am I able to burn a CD using Media Player but not iTunes? I am using Windows XP and I have burned cds from iTunes in the past.

Importation of VOB files into FCP

I have been importing .VOB file into FCP on a Mac Pro 8 core without any problems. Last week I bought a MacBookPro 3.06 Core 2 Duo and I reinstalled the OS and used system migration to import the programs from my Mac Pro.
The MacBookPro will NOT open import the VOB file into FCP. Apple support said that VOB files are not supported. They suggested the power difference between the two computers allowed import in one and not the other. This does not make sense to me.
Any thought from the experts?

I've never known any version of FCP to work with VOB files natively or otherwise. Most people use MPEG Streamclip to convert to the format that will match their FCP Sequence settings.

Creat VOB files From FC Pro Timline or Compressor

Is it possible to create DVD VOB files from the timeline of FC Pro or Compressor?
This is feature that is available in Edius, is there anything similar in FC pro or Compressor?

Hi,
There is no direct way to create VOB files from FCP nor Compressor but you may use DVD Studio Pro.
1- Export your sequence from FCP using "Export via Compressor..."
2- In Compressor, drag from the settings tab a setting that suits your needs (ex :Apple>DVD>Best Quality 90 minutes)
3- In DVDSP import the resulting files (m2v and ac3) in the" ressources tab", drag those 2 files in the "track 1" icon of the graphical tab, right-click and choose "first play".
Then, you just have to buid a project (ie a VIDEO_TS folder containing your VOB files) using Option-Command-C (File>advanced burn>build)
Hope it helps.

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message "The registry settings used by the I tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software Please reinstall

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message:
"The registry settings used by the I Tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing.
This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install I Tunes."
To my knowledge no new software has been installed. I have tried un-installing and re-installing I Tunes but I still
get the same message.
Can anyone offer any suggestions? Do I need to download a new driver?

I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

After I import a movie file from the camera memory card, Imovie 10.0.1 acts as if the memory card is empty though I know it isn't.... I can't import that file to iMovie again.. is that the way it worksnow? Thank you, Filippo

On IMac 10.9 After I import a movie file from the camera memory card to Imovie 10.0.1 it acts as if the memory card is empty though I know it isn't.... I can't import that file to iMovie again.. is that the way it works now? Anyone know? Thanks, Filippo

I would like to know this too. I imported a lot of files, then Imovie crashed. I went back in and they are not in imovie at all.
I reconnected the camcorder to import again and though they are still on the camcorder, I no longer see them in the available list of files to import. I'm sure there is some sort of simple setting somewhere that reveals all files even if it thinks they are imported.
Thanks

Copying hangs when copying large files from DVD

I'm having trouble copying large files (>2GB) from DVDs to my built-in hard drive. When I drag the file icon from the DVD window to the desktop, the progress bar pops up almost immediately, and says "0 KB of 2.3 GB copied" and "Estimated time left: 1 minute" -- and then it just sits there, doing nothing. In some cases, after five minutes or so of inactivity, the copy finally begins... but most of the time it never does. Force-Quit doesn't help; the only way out is to do an emergency restart and try again.
This problem began when I upgraded to Tiger, and several members of my office group have been experiencing the same problem on their own computers as well.
I've poked around the forum looking for answers but the only thing I could find that looked related was a conflict between iSight and some third-party external hard drives... but none of us have iSight, and none of us are using third-party external drives, so clearly that's not the issue we'rehaving.
Any help out there?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Michael, I occasionally notice anomolous behaviour when files get dragged between volumes. Mostly the copying window shows an accurate and immediate indication of what's going on, but other times it just looks like nothing's happening, the display never changes, yet, it is in fact copying the files over. Now, if you're copying 2gb files from DVD to HD, it's gonna take some time, more than 5 minutes, so I'm wondering how long you've left it before forcing it to quit?

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder on my sequence bar of my Premiere Pro CS6. Even if I use my Media Browser to import the file, the video plays fine, but the audio is disabled it seems. I don't know what to do since I have used .MTS files before without hassle on CS5.5. It is quite frustrating. What can I do?

Hi debesh05,
Please mention the Operating System that you are using and also make and model of the Camera that was used to capture those clips. Also, try to make another folder with the same name in the same location where the .MTS files are and move all the clips into the new folder and then try to import the files again using Media Browser in Premiere Pro CS6. If this doesn't work then make a copy of one file and rename it as .M2TS and then import that single file into Premiere Pro CS6. Please update if either of the solution works for you.
Regards,
Vinay
