Importing a burned dvd

My brother bought a tv episode on itunes and wanted to show it to me when he was visiting. However, when I try to import it in to my itunes (from a dvd he burned), it doesn't work. I get the message that I have to authorize my computer but when I enter either of our passwords, it doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

What is the best way to import from a DVD that has been burned with IDVD, etc.
There are a number of possibilities. If quality is not an issue and you want something simple, you could use an application like HandBrake (free) to convert the files directly to MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC files which can be imported into iMovie '08.
On the other hand, since your iDVD files are not encrypted, you can copy the VIDEO_TS folder (or simply the major, non-zero VOB files) to your hard drive. A number of third-party MPEG based applications can then convert the files to "high-quality" compression formats which iMovie '08 can use. These higher quality codecs will not really improve the quality of your original DVD content but may prevent further loss of quality as when using high compression codecs like MPEG4 or H.264. The files produced can be rather large -- i.e., on the same order of using you DAC to import DV compressed files. In any case, my application of preference would be MPEG Streamclip (free). Unfortunately, this application requires you to have the QT MPEG-2 Player component ($19.99) installed.

Importing from burned DVDs

Hi,
I'm about to buy a Canopus ADVC300 to import old VHS home movies into FCE, but I'd also like to import footage from some full length burned DVDs so that I can add effects, titling etc. (They're school plays, so no copyright protections, etc.) Can I also use that device to import the DVDs? I'm not sure if it will work since the DVDs are technically already digital, but I'd like to be able to use the Canopus to clean up the inevitably shakiness and bad audio quality. Will this work? Can I just plug my DVD player into the Canopus the way I would a VCR? Is there a better solution that will maintain/clean up the quality?
Thanks!

Yes, you can plug your DVD player into the ADVC-300 just the same as your VCR.
An alternative which will be faster is MPEG Streamclip to directly convert the DVD video to DV or AIC for editing in Final Cut. MPEG Streamclip is free and exellent. However you may need to purchase the QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component from Apple ($19.99) if you don't already have it installed on your Mac. (The conversion is faster because the ADVC works in real time as you play back the video on the VCR or DVD player; MPEG Streamclip can directly convert the video and audio from the files on the DVD).

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.

I received the following message when iTunes launches: "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's or DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning softwarre. Please reinstall iTunes"

Everytime I connect my iPod Touch (4th Gen) to my laptop, running Win 7 (64 bit) I get the message "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 iTunes several times and it has not fixed the issue. I am running ver 10.2.2.12 of iTunes. I HAVE NOT installed any other burning software to my laptop either. I haven't tried uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing it yet. Would that perhaps fix the problem? I've read that many users have had issues with the new version of the software and I was wondering if that might be causing my issue. I'd like to point out that iTunes seems to work after getting rid of the message, but I haven't tried to burn any CDs or put music from a CD to my laptop. Any ideas on how to get rid of the annoying message?
I also am having trouble hooking up with our other computers using Homegroup. I noticed quite a lot of people are having the same issue and hopefully they come up with a fix for that soon.
Thanks in advance.

If you're still getting the error message (especially when you plug in the Touch), I'd check for a device filter confusion on the PC. (They can affect the connection of USB devices to a PC, as well as burning and importing CDs.) For that one, see:

iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes

I have updated to the latest itunes, and it now won't allow me to import or burn CD's or DVD's. it says it is to do with the registry settings, and that recently added cd burning software may have something to do with it.

please help!! i've recently updated to the latest itunes version. after much hassle in doing so, it now tells me that the registry settings for importing or burning CD's/DVD's doesn't work and that i should reinstall itunes. i,ve done that from the website and from a saved position, but it doesn't work. i don't want to have to delete my library to have to start again !!!! there must be another way. it also said that it might be to do with other CD/DVD burning software, but i haven't put any on my computer that itunes didn't seem to lke before

I have the exact same issue. I havent found our what is causing it either. Multaple re-install attempts with no success. I have to use Windows Media Center to burn audio discs. Any other advice?

ITunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing
