Keeps saying trying to burn a pal onto a ntsc disc

I shot a project on a regular panasonic dvx100a I have been using for years and now that I am trying to put burn a dvd on dvd 7.0.4 and it keeps saying trying to burn a pal project onto a ntsc disc, why would this be coming up first time I have ever seen this come up in 10 yrs, I did take some footage from a friend that shot on mini dv with his jvc gy100 but I dont think that would cause it.

Did you put the footage into iMovie first before burning? This is the sort of message you get when the footage is created in iMovie on PAL (25 fps) and is being burnt with iDVD set to NTSC. I'd check the Preferences in both iMovie and iDVD is set to NTSC (29 fps).
Hope this is a help

Been trying to burn a movie onto DVD and get this "The disc can't be burned, because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media" Anybody know what it means and what to do? Help! Thanks

It generally means that the media is faulty or of poor quality. Most of us here use Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden media.

Your Superdrive may need a clean.
If you have further questions please state what Mac, with what versions of OS X, iMovie and iDVD you are using.

You can't just copy the slideshow to a DVD as, you've found out, that won't play on a TV. You need to use a program that will render it into DVD format, complete with the proper lead in and trailers. I use Toast to do that, however, there are other programs that can do that too.

Always over size when trying to burn media to CD or DVD discs

Why has my DU suddenly decided to block me from burning anything to CD or DVD?
I keep getting a message that I'm trying to burn information over the target disc size when it's well under.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Regards - Deano

BTW This is only when burning from a disk Image created within DU.
I haven't tried just inserting the disk dragging files and right clicking "Burn".
I've had no problems previously with the normal (Disk Image) method, I'm really panicking because I want to back up my latest work (that is already backed up to an external ... but you can't be too careful)
Once again, any advice much appreciated.

Burn a PAL dvd from ntsc project

I have an NTSC project with all ntsc media and would like to burn a PAL dvd. what is the easiest way to do so. I converted the media to pal and was hoping to do a 'save as' on the dvdsp project and just change it to PAL but it won't except the media.
thanks

It makes sense that a PAL DVD project wouldn't accept media that's already compressed to MPEG2 in NTSC format. When the DVD is built, all it does is multiplex the audio/video. It doesn't change the compression or frame rate or size.
You'd probably need to recompress the original edited source video in Compressor to PAL format. Once you select a preset in Compressor, you need to change the Video Format from Automatic to PAL. Select the preset and in the Inspector, click the Encoder section, then the Video Format tab. Then you'll see the Video Format popup menu where you can change it to PAL.
One other thing to keep in mind: It might be a waste of time to convert it to PAL since most PAL DVD players can convert NTSC format DVDs on the fly during playback. I send NTSC DVDs to Hungary all the time and they have no trouble playing them with typical consumer PAL DVD players.

I am receiving the message "disc burner or software not found" when trying to burn a playlist to a blank disc.

I ran the diagnostics test and the program was unable to detect a prerecorded cd. This is a fairly new problem and I am not sure what to do.

Hello queenabs,
It sounds like you are trying to burn a playlist to a disc in iTunes, but you are getting the error, "disc burner or software not found." I found a couple of resources that I think might help with an error like this.
I recommend starting with the steps in this article:
iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2308
If you are still having trouble with burning a disc after following the steps in that article, I recommend following the steps in this article:

Trying to burn disk image onto LaCie DVD burner...

I have saved an imovie in iDVD and then saved the project as a disk image on my desktop. Using Disk Utility I added the image as a new image and chose burn. Everything seemed to be going fine, It said it was burning the image and when it finished a error window appeared that said device did not respond properly and was unable to burn project. Can anyone give a start to finish on how to burn an iDVD project to a DVD-+R on a LaCie burner??? Much help appreciated...

Use Toast which came with it - it burns the images fine. And try Verbatim media.

Yesterday I tried to burn regular software onto a blank DVD disc

My iMac just gave me errors.
What? Do you have to buy a special blank CDs if you want to copying software? Blank DVD discs are only good for copying DVDs?

I am trying out the free trial photo elements 13, and i have edited some pics and now i am trying to burn the pics onto a dvd. how do i do that?

and i have a laptop computer with windows 7

iDVD can only use your startup hard disk for the "scratch space" it needs for calculations during the encoding process. 25 GB is a good average requirement, but a large project (3 or 4 hours of content) might require more.
To free up space, you will have to move items to an external hard drive and/or delete items you no longer want.
Please note that iDVD can't use and external hard drive for this "scratch space".

How to burn Microsoft Powerpoint onto a DVD disc..

I need to start making a Microsoft Powerpoint (2010) with music but am uncertain how I would burn it onto a disc when finished..
What kind of disc would I need and what format would I need to save it as to avoid losing any data?
The disc and presentation is going to be created on my MacBook Pro, but would need to be playable on a PC.
Hope this isn't a stupid question but i have NO idea - I just got a Mac so I am really new with this...

If purchased the SuperDrive with your Macbook Pro, it supports these formats:
Apple reports that this slot-loading "SuperDrive" (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW) has a maxium write speed of "8x DVD-R, DVD+R; 4x DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD-R; 10x CD-RW" and a maximum read speed of "8x DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-ROM; 6x DVD-ROM (double layer DVD-9), DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, and DVD+RW; 24x CD".

DVD studio pro PAL to make NTSC disc

I know there are some post on here but I have a PAL Project sat in DVDSP
made in PAL for here in blighty and I need to make a copy for the states,
Is there a simple button press to make a NTSC copy that I can send, or how do I do it?
Thanks for the help in advance,
regards
Darren

You will need to make the PAL Assets NTSC (via Compressor or in FInal Cut) then use that in an NTSC project. (In other words there is no easy way to just press a button.)
There are a few approaches. Generally I will just use the original footage from Final Cut, export as self contained or reference movie and export in the codec, then convert to other version then make an m2v.
So, for instance, if the original is PAL HDV
1.) Export the PAL HDV as self contained
2.) Set up Compressor to make a NTSC HDV (tweak frame controls to better)
3.) Drop the PAL intro Compressor
4.) Take the NTSC and then make that m2v and AC3 in Compressor
There are other approaches, but this one has given good results with the tools at hand (not going for other plugins, etc.) and works fairly quickly once you get the hang of it. More so if you have a machine that can use virtual clusters...

Error Code when trying to burn from a burn folder

Hey everyone,
I am trying to clean up some space on my powerbook G4 (not that I need to) but I like to keep things tidy. I was trying to burn some files onto a CD, it recognized the blank CD, displayed it in my finder as well as the burn icon, I had all the files set up, I hit burn, went to the speed selector, and then when I hit ok an error message popped up saying could not burn "Error Code 0x80020000). Any clue as to why that is? This is the first time I have had a problem burning files, both music and data have worked before.
Thanks for the help.

Hi, Joshua.
I presume you are using the internal optical drive that shipped from the factory with your PowerBook G4.
1. You wrote: "I am trying to clean up some space on my powerbook G4 (not that I need to) but I like to keep things tidy."Be careful not to "tidy up" anything outside of your Home folder or the Macintosh HD > Users > Shared folder. Your Home > Library folder is another folder that should not be altered unnecessarily.
"Tidying" System files can render your Mac inoperable unless you either:
• Have a deep understanding of Mac OS X and the files in question.
• Are instructed to remove such a file by someone with such understanding.
2. You wrote: "Error Code 0x80020000)"This is an "Internal Disc Recording" error.
You may have selected too high a speed for the optical media or the optical drive, have bad media, or be using optical media that your optical drive cannot see correctly. Some new, high-speed media use dyes that are problematic with older Mac optical drives. See Macintosh: Factors That Affect Writing to or Reading From Optical Media. If you've not used this brand of media before, try a brand and speed of media that has worked in the past.
Good luck!
