Kaiser Baas Video to DVD Maker

Has anyone experienced with using Kaiser Baas Video to DVD Maker on a Mac? Is it possible to save the captured file in a format the iMovie will edit? If so, how is this done?

Yes - capture analog movies, and it converts it to DVD format. The problem is, it will not allow you to edit it before burning the DVD. It saves it as an "Empia Movie", and iMovie will not open it. Empia is the software Kaiser Bass bundles with the gadget, to use with a Mac.

Capture Video - KWorld DVD Maker

Hey guys
I am having problems capturing video with Adobe Premiere Pro. When I go to the capture screen and on the settings tab, under device control and device I only have these 3 options:
None
DV/HDV Device Control
Serial Device Control
I want to capture data from my KWorld DVD Maker (This is a usb device that allows a composit input to pc) there is no usb option and the drivers are installed. What do I do?
Thanks

Welcome to the forum.
I'm not familiar with your hardware, but does it also allow for composite signal out? If so, you can use an A-B bridge (like the Canopus/Grass Valley ADVC-110), or an A-D capture card, like the Turtle Beach Video Advantage. Just feed the composite signal to the capture device and record it via the software included. With the Canopus, you can use about any capture software. You will not have device control, but with the mouse in one hand, and the device's remote in the other, it's two quick clicks and at the worst, you have a few black frames to cut out.
Now, I Googled your DVD Maker, and it looks like it's just a composite/S-Video to USB 2.0 cable. Is this correct? If so, you'll need to find software that can either capture from it, or if it does both the conversion (I'd choose the MPEG-2) and then the transfer to the HDD, do that and then Import the resultant files. One reviewer seems to indicate that they used CyberLink's PowerProducer, which ships with the device. I'd use it, and then edit the MPEG-2 (not the best format for editing) in PrPro. Note: if PowerProducer can capture as DV-AVI Type II, choose that and set Audio to 48KHz 16-bit. That will edit fine.
Otherwise, I'd skip it and go back above (that's why I left it in there).
Good luck,
Hunt

HELP NEEDED!!! Windows DVD Maker -- Video's will not work/burn, at all.

I've registered just for this problem as I've tried just about everything imaginable.
What's happening is that when trying to make a DVD from a video file (photo slideshow plus music works fine) that Windows DVD Maker will get to around 74% encoding and then just stop and give me the error message (at this point the progress meter skips to 99%):
"Cannot create the DVD
An error occured when burning the DVD"
I've tried this using an avi file, (I know it works as I have used DVDFLick and its works great,, the menus are no where near as nice as windows dvd maker), and the sample video file included windows (I beleive its a wmv file).
I have looked at the event viewer, heres my error (which seems pretty common doing a google search):

OK so here's what i tried:
1. Small video files, the sample one in the public folder, other 700mb avi files.
2. Unchecked all the codecs in the options menu, then checked one at a time, then checked both, *one is AC3Filter, the other is Avi Decompressor from memery, located in the system32 folder, so not sure why it registered there if it's a windows included codec???).
3. http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/mpeg-2-encoder-is-missing/page/2
Have followed this guys instructions on re-registering the required dll files (which I have checked and they are there in the System32 folder). Though when doing this using the "Run" in the start menu for the command "regsvr32 msmpeg2adec.dll" I get the error:
"The module "msmpeg2adec.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005."
Then I use the command prompt (opening as "Run as Administrator", even though I am an administrator user????) run all the same things, and everything succeeds fine, no errors (but like I said, if don't run as admin, get the same DllRegistryServer error, even though I am an administrator)
Restart the comp. and what do ya know, still doesn't work, same problem, same error.
3. Pictures and music, which burn fine and work fine on a dvd player.
4. Have checked the temporary file where the encoded files are dumped. ie:
C:\Users\******\AppData\Local\Temp\AuthorScript*****.tmp
Have opened the video file in WMC (Media Centre), works fine, no audio but that's still seperated at this point, so no worries there). I noticed though that the AC3 file or audio is at 0kb, and the second it is created when DVD maker is doing it's thing, I get an error, hmm not sure what's goin on there???
5. Have used Vista Media Center Decoder utility. Results were:
Video: Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder
Audio: Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder
There are no other options (haven't needed to install other codec, don't use Nero either).
I have Windows 7 Pro (64bit), so I have all the necessary codecs built in. (As mentioned, I do have Ac3filter, but that's disable/unchecked in DVD maker, maybe that's the problem???). I would rather not download and install additional codecs.
Oh and it gets to 74% encoding then skips to 99% and the error pops up. From experience making a "picture and music" DVD, 74% is about when it starts burning, or when it merges the video and audio to make the vob file/s. It actually skips quickly to 80% and starts burning (slideshow DVD).
Computer is custom built, it not a HP or anything like that, so I don't have those .ax file extensions in system32 (for those who have seen an answer here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/itprovistaapps/thread/5cb0a40d-223c-4aed-87c4-3c63f400ee81)
So any idea's/suggestions? I know this will help a lot of people as it seems a common problem. I'm pretty tech savvy, so will try to follow any suggestions carefully.
Ohh and finally, for all those who reply thank you, thank you, thank you, even it if doesn't work, any suggestions are appreciated. And for reading my post, thank you, I realise it's a mighty long post. I hope my linking to multiple sites is okay.

I am attempting to burn a DVD from a Divx avi file with an mp3 audio track. I tried twice burning a DVD using Windows DVD Maker and had same result both times. Great picture, correct aspect etc but no audio. I played the DVD on a DVD player and on my laptop
- same result. I should add that I used the preview facility on the software and there was audio. But when I burned the DVD - no audio.
I searched through a few forums, including this one, and tried the recommended procedure of going via Windows Movie Maker. I opened the avi in Movie Maker and chose the DVD option, a message appeared saying that the video would open in Windows DVD Maker which
it did. I clicked on burn and yes, I got picture plus sound. However now the picture was stretched and distorted along the top half of the screen with a green band filling the lower half. I tried once more being careful not to make any silly errors and same
thing.
Divx avi with an mp3 audio track is a very commonly used format so it is surprising that Microsoft haven't configured the software to accommodate this and a number of other common formats such Xvid avi, mp4, m4v etc. with mp3 audio OR ac2 audio.
Surmising that Windows DVD Maker would at least be able to deal with a Windows movie file (a wmv file) I converted the avi to a wmv using AVS Video Converter (a piece of software which I use regularly). NB When converting it's wise to use advance menu to change
frame size to 'original' in order to preserve quality and aspect ratio. There are many other video converters on the market but AVS is a good one.
My supposition was correct DVD Maker produced a perfect DVD from the wmv file. It's unfortunate that Microsoft haven't found a solution to this problem because otherwise DVD Maker does a fine job.
CONCLUSION
Convert your file to an hmv file and then use DVD Maker

Dvd menu like windows dvd maker "video wall"?

I recently bought premiere elements 10 and I'm just learning how to use it.
My question: how can I produce an effect equivalent to the "video wall" dvd menu that windows dvd maker has?
I think I can make something like this using the PIP function. I don't see how to automate this process. It seems very tedious. Am I missing something?
Thanks.
Todd

Right - I've never bothered with the 'Live' versions.
But I do have installed the earlier Movie Maker 2.6, that allows export to DV-AVI. And if you don't have that you CAN still download it from Microsoft.
But the 'non-Live' version of DVD Maker may not be available in all Windows versions (I recall a post that suggests it's not available in Windows Basic). And if you don't have it you are stuck - as it CANNOT be downloaded separately.
It IS definitely is in Vista Ultimate 32-bit and W7 Ultimate 64-bit.

Compressing Video for DVD Burn Makes Text Look jagged

Hello,
I'm currently at the final steps of a lengthy video production project and am struggling to make the text elements of my finished video display correctly after compression prior to burning it to DVD.
I create and produce music for a living and don't have nearly as much experience with video editing. I'm a bit new to all of this and am using FCE 4.0.1 to create my video & Compressor and DVD Studio Pro 2 to compress and author video for DVD.
*My main issue is this:*
I'm using an imported still image as the title card for my film. It's a mixture of large plain Helvetica Neu font text with some additional stylized lettering created in Photoshop (which is why I'm not using FCE's built-in text generators for the title card). The typography isn't very wild and crazy, it's basically big bold letters and a few gentle curves. I exported the image (1200x600) from Photoshop as a .png and imported it into FCE.
When I export my finished video file (.png title card and all) out of FCE, I export it as a raw uncompressed Quicktime file:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
(It displays in quicktime at 1920x1080 though.)
After initially exporting from FCE, the title card image and all the other text in my movie created from FCE's built-in text generators look fine. It's only after I compress the finished movie in DVD Studio Pro or Compressor that I get jagged looking edges on the curves of my letters, primarily the title card image (the text generated by FCE's generators holds up okay).
In compressor I'm using the "MPEG-2 6.2 Mbps 2-pass settings for DVD" preset and in DVD Studio Pro. Using '2 pass VBR', 'Best' motion tracking, 'best' and 'highest quality' on all the compression settings I can find. I'm encoding at a total rate of 6.5Mb/sec max and 6Mb/sec average. These are standards for compressing to DVD and since I'm preparing a master for reproduction, I've been told I shouldn't increase the data rate over this or I'll run into player compatibility issues down the line.
Any ideas on how I can make this text image last through the compression process and still look clean and crisp without having to increase the data rate of compression? I'm going to play with different file formats for now, but it that doesn't work I don't know where to go from there.
Thank you for any help insights you can provide.

I started with a variety of HD raw footage (most of it gathered on Canon 5D Mkii SLR Digital camera in the form of: H.624 1920x1080) but converted all my raw footage prior to editing into:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
I edited everything in Final Cut Express 4.0.1 using the AVCHD Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i60 at 29.97 fps sequence preset.
When I finished editing all my video I exported it as a raw uncompressed quicktime file which is also:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
But when played in quicktime this finished video displays at 1920x1080, which I'm happy with. (I'm assuming this is the proper behavior of Apple Intermediate Codec? It seemed to take 1920x1080 footage, converted it to 1440x1080, and then spit it back out as 1920x1080 after the whole editing process.)
But seeing as how my issue is with an image file I'm creating in Photoshop and importing into my video sequence, I don't quite understand how the rest of my footage would really effect it. I've made sure to create the image using the same dimensions and pixel aspect ratio as my sequence frames by using one of the standard Photoshop screen templates (HD widescreen 1440x1080). I save my title card image as a non-interlaced .png file and import it into FCE.
When I place the imported image on the timeline, FCE doesn't resize it because it matches the frame dimensions of the sequence. When I view the image at 100% in FCE's viewer all of the image's lines, curves, and shapes display properly as they appear in my original photoshop file.
But for some reason FCE treats this imported .png image file as a 'rendered proxy.' So while it looks fine in FCE prior to rendering and exporting, when I export the video sequence containing this newly imported title card image, the resulting uncompressed quicktime file contains jagged horizontal lines across some of the characters in the title card image. It almost looks as if there's some interlacing issue going on.
However after much experimentation and trial and error I landed on a custom compression setting in Compressor that seemed to take care of this issue. I did as you recommended and selected a high quality 7.5 Mbps encoding preset (7.5 Mbps max/6.4 Mbps average), but noticed a 2 pass VBR rendered better results. What really seemed to do the trick was adding a deinterlace filter to the compression preset, and that miraculously seemed to eliminate the jagged lines in my title card image, restoring it to its original appearance (at least during my initial inspection in Compressor's preview mode).
After letting Compressor crank away, I looked at the finished compressed video in quicktime and the jagged interlaced-looking lines in my title card image have returned. Compressor's preview was somehow misguided.
Now my plan is to burn this compressed video to a DVD and view it on a TV to see if maybe these jagged lines in the final compressed version are only being caused by viewing on my computer's monitor. I'm hoping this is the case, otherwise I'm at a loss of what to do next.
If you need any more details please let me know. Otherwise I hope this is enough to give you a better idea of what issues I'm dealing with.
Thanks again for your insights.

Will my internal dvd burn a video from windows dvd maker and if so how ?

I have downloaded some educational documentaries and am wanting to burn to DVD but when I try I get a error message "DVD burner not found". Will windows dvd maker recognize my internal dvd burner ? I have a 6 month old hp g6 # qc399av... these were downloaded to realplayer ad then transferred to windows dvd maker... It will play but will not burn... what do I need to burn these ?
I have checked and all of my updates appear to be current as of yesterday 3-16-12

Yes you can run programs from a differnt drive. All you have to do is download that prgram to that drve same as you would to the c:drive by defualt we will have to reload everything as if you never had itunes.
1 make a folder on your drive called itunes.
2 go to the website and get the itune ( click on the download link and when it ask to run or save click save and tell it where to save.
3. After save is complete click on the install app. it will default to install to you c drive. Change this to your desired drive and folder. (this will install it on that drive and folder.) then you will have to make a shortcut to open Itunes.
4 If you more than one pc configure in the same order and # of drive you will be able to run this drve from any pc.
I do this with alot of programs at work from a 4gb penn drive to get around the firewall and admin rites. (I.T. department)

Windows dvd maker does not recognize the dvd drive in this computer

I have windows 7 release candidate on my old desktop and this newish notebook. Windows DVD maker works fine on the desktop but on this Lenovo 3000 N200 it will not recognize the built in dvd drive. I have checked with Device Manager and the software is up to date and the device is working normally. I can make DVD movies using a free program called DVD Flick. DVD Flick recognizes the DVD burner, so why won't Windows DVD Maker work??

Hi Ppprrrggg,
The following information was copied from Troubleshoot problems with creating a DVD-Video using Windows DVD Maker
My DVD failed to burn. What can I do?
Try one or more of the following:
Verify that the DVD burner is connected properly to your computer and powered on, and that any necessary software drivers for the DVD burner are installed. You can check your hardware settings in the Device Manager by doing the following:
1.
Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2.
Click Hardware and Sound.
3.
Click Device Manager.
Make sure that the videos you're trying to burn are not corrupted. To see whether the videos you want to burn are corrupted, try playing or viewing them using Windows Media Player. If the files don't play using the Player, Windows DVD Maker cannot burn them.
Choose a slower burning speed for your DVD burner by doing the following:
1.
Return to the Add pictures and video to the DVD page, and then click Options.
2.
In the DVD burner speed box, select Medium or Slow.
Does it work?
Thanks .
I uninstalled DVD Flick and followed the steps above but no luck.....any other ideas??? Apart from the fact that Windows DVD Maker SHOULD work I find it extra annoying because I think it is a very good program....it's better than DVD Flick, and besides not wanting to fork out money I would prefer to have nothing to do with programs like Nero.
Hi,
When you click DVD Maker-what exactly happens?Or what kind of error is?
when i click dvd
when I click dvd burner I select videos 2 burn.....videos I can watch on windows media player. After selecting the slowest burn speed I click on ''burn'' just like I do on my 7 year old desktop (which will then burn a dvd movie). But on this notebook I get a little window......''windows dvd maker''. It reads ''dvd burner not found. A dvd burner was not found. Make sure a dvd burner is connected and installed then try again.'' How useless is that???!!! I find it hard to believe this problem cannot be solved. Also I don't believe I can make the problem any clearer!!! Windows has no problem finding the dvd drive if I want to burn a data dvd so how come I can't burn a dvd movie using windows??? please help!!!!!

How to fit video to DVD-5?

Hi: I have been reading the faqs and forums, and pulling info from a variety of sources, but I am still confussed about how to fit my video to a DVd-5 using Encore. I have previsouly made DVds using Encore 1 & 2.0, so I know the process. But those were smaller projects under 1 hour running time. My current project is approaching 100 minutes for the main feature with small extras, and some basic menus.
I have read that I should be able to fit 110-130 minutes max on a DVD-5. I have also read to realistically expect something closer to 60-75 minutes. Which is it?
My footage is sport oriented so their is movement and & action, lots of transitions, & some composting.
Can someone tell me how do I fit 100 minutes to DVD-5, if that is possible?
I am editing my feature in PPro 1.5. I export 5-10 minute segments as DV AVI files, and then color adjust etc in AE 7.0., which I have been saving as Microsoft DV. I was planning on final assembly of all segments in AE 7.0, & export the whole feature from AE 7.0 as Microsfot DV. But I think this makes my feature file too big and it won;t fit to DVD-5. Is there another codec I should be using for final output to Encore?
What if I assembled in PPro 1.5 and exported to AE for final color. Is there a different codec I should be using to help it fit later on?
Also, I usually leave Encore set to automatic transcode and let it figure whats best. Should I be picking soemthing different?
Thanks and sorry if this has been cover before

Recording Camcorder video to DVD with Satellite 1900

I have just tried to record a video from my camcorder to a DVD-R but kept getting the message 'drive not found' My computer is a Satellite 1900 and happily plays DVD's. but would appear not to want to record them.
Does the type of DVD make any difference, is there a way to make the computer recognise the disc in drive E:
The video happily transfers from the camera to the computer and I can play it on the computer but cannot transfer it to a DVD disc, anyone with any ideas??

Hi
One question; do you have an DVD writer or only the DVD reader!?
Please be sure that you can also burn DVD with your notebook and not only view.
Second question; what burning applications did you use?
I use Nero and its my favorite burning program. It supports many burning modes and burns the medium with best performance.

Than i tryed Windows DVD Maker (Free when you have Ultimate Vista).
I used there absolutely the same videos and photos. Result: Slide show and video quality was perfect and without flickering problems.
I spent a lot of money and o can not believe that this free tool dvd maker is better than encore cs4.
so please help me to solve this problem.
I really don't know what i could try.
Thank you and see you soon.

Greetings,
If these are video DVDs (you put them in a set top DVD player and they play on the TV) then you'll need some extra software to convert them, as in their present form they cannot be edited.
Apple does not make such software but there are other companies that do.
You can convert your DVDs to a usable form using a variety of programs. Some examples:
Free: http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php
Paid: http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/popcorn/standard/overview.html
NOTE: Neither of these examples will convert copyright protected DVDs as that is illegal (mostly). If the DVDs you are trying to use were created with copyright protection, the afore mentioned programs will be unable to convert them.
Cheers.

AVi Video to DVD

I have some family 8mm film from the 1950's. It was converted to the AVi format. I am creating DVD's. If I uncheck the "Quality: Fit contents to available space," and set the quality slider to Highest Quality, will the DVD's play in a DVD or Bluray player?

Michael Stehly
There is no guarantee that any one particular disc will play in a given player.
The only time I would use "Fit contents to available space" is I were getting a Data Rate error message from the project in the burn to phase and had to
lower the bitrate manually in order to reduce the file size and get the burn to progress. I would work routinely with a check mark next
to "Fit Content to Available Space".
I see no advantage to what you are doing, and you open the possibility of the data rate error which will force you to lower the bitrate anyway.
As to player compatibility...in some infrequent instances, a player might require an Audio_TS Folder in with the VIDEO_TS Folder of the
DVD-VIDEO of the DVD disc. Audio_TS is not included in the Premiere Elements burn to disc. But, it can be achieved with a Premiere Elements burn to folder
and then using the VIDEO_TS Folder and a home made Audio_TS Folder and ImgBurn to create the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
As for AVCHD DVD or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc, I am not sure that adding a AACC Folder or the like would make any difference on the playability
of AVCHD DVD or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc. However, Blu-ray adds another consideration to "Fit Content to Available Space"

I am trying to get a good copy of my home video on DVD using IDVD. On editing the video all the viewing screens show the video perfectly in HD. When I burn the video to DVD all the end results are buzzy with squiggly lines. Any fix? Thanks?

Hi
There are several layers to this Q
A. There are no HD in DVD - DVD is as standard only SD-Video what ever tools used to produce it !
iDVD or DVD-Studio Pro or Roxio Toast™ - will only make SD-Video on DVD
B. DVD can be better or worse
• Using "Share to iDVD" is no good way - Better is Share to Media Browser and as Large (NOT HD as result will be worse)
• Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - are not tools to chose if highes quality is of importance - iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut any version is far better as they send over all lines to iDVD and not only every second one.
• Using Right encoder quality depending on movie and Manu duration is very important
• Use of high quality brand of DVD - is important - I use Verbatim DVD-R
• Type of DVD - DVD-R plays on more DVD-Players (even old ones)
• Burn speed - I set it down to x4 - resulting in less burn errors - plays on more players
• I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up Mac OS hard disk as iDVD and Mac OS needs this and it can not be taked from other hard disks - has to be here.
• What You feed iDVD does matter
Video codecs
Audio file formats
Photo file formats
