Solution to chapter markers not showing up in iDVD

I've been having a problem with my chapter markers from FCE not transferring properly in iDVD06. I'd export a QT movie from FCE HD, the chapters would show up fine if I opened the file in QT, but placing the movie in iDVD would bring in the movie sans chapters.
I've been using the "all markers" option in FCE's export window, but today I discovered that I needed to select "chapter markers" instead. When I choose the "Chapter Marker" option, everything imports fine into iDVD.
I haven't tried using markers otherthan chapter markers along with chapter markers, thus I don't know if the "all markers" option would work if I had additonal types of markers present.

You need to toggle on "show overlays" in the canvas and/or viewer display.
You access it via the rightmost icon of the three above the canvas display or from the VIEW menu or with SHIFTOPTIONW

Markers Not Showing in Mpeg2

Hi,
This is a DVD Studio Pro Question that is directly related to FCP and Compressor. Basically I want to have chapter markers on my DVD. My problem is my FCP chapter markers are not showing up in the Mpeg2 file that I insert into DVDSP. Somewhere along the chain, I must be doing something wrong.
1. Within FCP, I made sure that all my markers were "chapter" markers.
2. I then exported a Quicktime movie with "DVD Studio Pro markers"
3. I imported that Quicktime movie into compressor and noticed that there are many blue markers. I then export an Mpeg 2 and AC3 file
4. I import the Mpeg 2 file in DVDSP. I do not see any markers on the timeline
I'm guessing that I messed up somewhere between #3 and 4. I've looked at all kinds of online documents and tutorials including this:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/compression_chapter_markersstone.html
I'm at a loss of what to do, and I'm on a deadline... help!
Alexander

In compressor, are you using one of the Apple presets to generate the m2v file?
If not, make sure the "Add DVD Studio Pro metadata" box in Inspector>Extras is selected. Alernatively just select "Include Chapter Markers only".

Markers not showing up after opening a saved project. Where did they go!?

My first time using Prelude CS6 yesterday and had good success with ingesting, marking clips (into subclips, comments, etc.), saving the marked movies, and them sending the subclips to Premiere. They dumped into Premiere as expected.
However, this morning I started a new project in Premiere and planned on using the same clips I marked up in Prelude. I wanted to do a little more marking so I opened the Prelude project I saved yesterday and the movie files are there but none of the subclips, comments, or other markers are showing up.
The only thing I can think of is that I did not do a rough cut in Prelude, but I don't see why that would mean losing the markers from the source footage.
Am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks...

Interesting...
so this morning in preparing to upload a PL project for you, I
decided to try a new test PL project with different footage. The one I
played with this morning ("GrandCanyon_1.plproj" in the Folder
"Prelude_test") seems to work fine! I threw in some markers, saved, closed
PL, re-opened PL and the markers were there.
So I did the same thing using some footage from the project that I posted
about (ingested some footage, placed a sub clip marker, saved, closed,
re-opened), and the markers were gone. Perhaps it has to do with the source
footage?
Anyhow, I'm uploading the files to my ftp if you want to check them out.
They should be uploaded by 10am central.
Access info sent in separate email.
Thanks!

Markers not showing up from emailed project file.

I couldn't find an asswer to this but for some reason the clip markers that someone painstakingly put in a Premiere project are now not showing up on my end so i can continue working on the project.
The project file was uploaded to Creative Cloud and i then downloaded it.
I have a notion as to why this is, but I'm hoping someone can confirm this and possibly offer a solution to help us out.
I'm working with .mts files as I shoot onto AVCHD. So, with those .mts files are corresponding .xmp files in the same folder. My theory is that the markers get written into the .xmp file and not into the project file somehow. But interestingly, the markers that were put onto sequences and multi-cam interviews remained.
Im hoping that if I replace the .xmp files they will show up again. Can anyone offer some advice here?
Thanks!

As noted, Premiere's new Export Markers feature works with only one source at a time. When the Timeline has focus, that could either be the sequence's markers (if no track items are selected) or the markers from a single track item (if only one is selected).
Unless Jim knows some trick that I'm unaware of, there's no way in PPRO to export the markers from all the constituent clips in one go.
If you'd like the ability to export markers from multiple project items, please submit a feature request. The more, the merrier.
The good news is that if you have PPRO CC, you also have Prelude CC, and as noted that app supports exporting markers from multiple selected assets. It gives you the option of writing a separate file for each asset or collecting them all in one file.
CaptainPincone: would you elaborate on what you mean when you say
"the in and out points did not match the markers in and out points" -- when you export markers with a clip is selected in the sequence, the timecodes in the marker export file correspond to the markers' timecodes in the master clip, not in the sequence. (If you want the option of having the sequence timecodes used in this scenario, that would be another feature request.)
"there was no information such as the marker's "Title", or "Comments"? I was the tester on this feature and know of no bugs where any marker's content is not written to the marker export file.

Saved iMovie projects not showing up in iDVD's Media compartment

Hello Everyone,
I recently created 2 projects in iMovie. After saving them at full quality they are showing up in my Movies folder, however, when I begin an iDVD project neither is showing up in iDVD's Media compartment (under "Custom"). I'm baffled. Can anyone out there shed some light on this? Perhaps I am saving them incorrectly?

Figured it out...Went under "File > Import > Movies" in iDVD. The movies showed up when I did that. Still don't understand why they don't show up under "Media." Everything worked beautifully after that.

My images are not showing up on iDvd

Recently tried cleaning out my start up disk. Opened iDVD and now I can't find my images to drag and create a slideshow. Can anyone help?? Please

Hi
Moving the iPhoto library out from Start-Up hard disk will give problems - as iDVD and iMovie can not find it. AND can not be re-directed to them else they are moved back.
Non of them copies the pictures in use but only points to where they are to be found. If moved - Confusion.
Event's and Project's folders same - but they can be moved from within iMovie (not on desktop)

Imovie projects not showing up in idvd

I have been trying to share my imovies to idvd to get some discs burned all night! I am clicking on a edited project in imovie. Then Share then share to media browser, then large, then publish. When I open up the movies tab in idvd it isn't there. The only movies showing up are the unedited events from imovies. I have tried everything. I did convert all of these movies from vhs using elgato video capture. That worked fine. I have enough space etc. Any ideas? I am right in understanding that the movies shared to the media browser should show up under the movie tab in idvd, aren't I?

MARKERS NOT SHOWING ON THE VIEWER

After editing the marker, I can see my notes on the viewer, later they disappear. Sometimes even after I edit it, I write the note, the marker is there but nothing appears on the viewer. When I open the same marker to edit, the note is gone.
Show overlays is on, I don't know what to do.
Thank youuuu!!!

It has been moved to the Notes App. I wish Apple would stop moving the furniture around. It makes me dizzy!
But yes, that's where you would find it.

Why is Font not showing up in idvd font menu?

hi everyone, I'm new, not really, but sorta. anyway, I'm using idvd 08 to create a dvd, I started with a magicidvd and then clicked create project and have done a lot of changes, some submenus, etc. The bggest issue I have now is that I really want to use a certain font, it is a truetype font, it is activated via Suitcase Fusion, but it does not appear in iDVD's font menu, it does however appear in the font menus of other apps. I have restarted and even created a whole new project to no avail. any ideas are appreciated.
A second less important question is this, how do I make it so that my "play" button on the main menu plays the movie instead of it going to the submenu containing "play" and "scene selection" ?
Ok, figured that menu question out. Thanks.
Sorry guys, new question, how do I get the bullet next to a button center with the text?
Hard to believe I help so many mac users, huh?

mine seems to be reversed, selecting right from that label menu puts the bullet on the left side of the text
That is working correctly, then. You are telling it where to put the LABEL. Not the button. (So selecting "right" puts the label to the right of the button.)
vtavera wrote:
still not centered though, it's that bullet that looks like a paint splat, I think that may be how it is supposed to be, though no other bullets center either, maybe its the font? futura medium, there's a lot of space under the type, like it's away from the baseline.
Most likely it is the font. Some fonts have their baseline set VERY low, so something that is "Centered" horizontally actually looks way off to our eye.

I have one more question now, I attempted to burn the dvd last night, but get an error that says "Project Error - There were errors during the project validation that have to be fixed before burning the project." I get an ok button, and sometimes I get an "Open DVD Map button, which takes me to the map view, but I see no problems.
I have not personally encountered any errors yet, so I do not have personal experience with the error-reporting mechanism.
However, my understanding is that viewing your project in DVD Map view, will display error messages next to where the error occurs in the project.
So turn on the DVD Map, and take a look at every single menu closely. I expect you will see the error in there somewhere.

Video chapter markers not showing in iTunes

I used Metadata Hootenanny to add chapter markers in a movie.
When I play the movie through Quicktime it shows the pop-up chapter selector, but when i import the movie into iTunes and play it through iTunes, the controls don't show the chapter markers.
I've seen the chapter markers working fine in iTunes for movies purchased in the iTunes Store.
What am I doing wrong?

Titles from iMovie 08 NOT showing up in iDVD?

I know the product is just out, and many are still playing\learning, but this is driving me crazy! Playing around last night in iMovie 08. Made a short movie, testing a new cam, and added a title, credit and some fades. They appear, play, look great etc. in iMovie, HOWEVER, when I "share" it and import to iDVD, none of the titles, transitions etc. appear.
Anyone know what I might be doing wrong, and is this the right place to post? (Wasn't sure if I should post in the iMovie forum, as that parts working fine)!
Thanks!

Ok, not sure why this happened, but now it's working. I "republished" the project again, I know I did it the first time as well, and suddenly all transitions and titles are available in the exported version.
Strange....a bug maybe?

IDVD 6: Menu buttons don't show up from iDVD 5 project

I have an iDVD 5 project that I opened in iDVD 6. It consists of 3 slideshows. (There was an issue with it not seeing the iPhoto 6 photos, but that's another issue I posted in the iPhoto forum.)
The buttons that show the slideshows do not show up in iDVD 6. But if I go to map view, the slideshows show up and I can go into them and see all the slides are there and I can preview them. (Well, when it doesn't crash.)
I tried creating new menus but those don't show up either (although, oddly enough, at one point I added a new menu and the title of one of the slideshows showed up!). This project had the Travel theme in iDVD 5.
So in summary: the menu buttons to start the slideshows don't show up when I open the project in iDVD 6. They also don't show up in the title (main) menu when I preview it in iDVD 6. I haven't yet tried actually burning a DVD.
Any suggestions?

The -34506 error. Welcome to a world of frustration and wasted evenings. There are plenty of threads here with suggestions on 'rules' for setting up your slideshows in iMovie, clearing caches, creating new users etc. These have fixed this particular error for some people.
Good luck!
Simon
## Oops! - I should have read your post more carefully the first time. Hey, at least you have a new number, even if it does provide as little real information as to what the source of the error is as the one I mention!

Created imovie and shared media. Now in IDVD and my chapters are not showing.

created imovie with chapters. Now in idvd and my chapters don't show up.

Your tags show that you are using iMovie '08. From memory (and I may be wrong), this version didn't have a chapter marker feature. I believe users were advised to use GarageBand for inserting chapters, then exporting to iDVD.
How did you set up the chapters?
EDIT: One other point - perhaps you are using iMovie '11 (or '09) and you have used Comment Markers - not Chapter Markers? They are side-by-side on the far right of the Project window.

IMovies Do Not Show Up in Magic iDVD

In the Magic iDVD project creation "dialog box" I clicked on Movies and did not see the 4 iMovie icons that are in my Movies library. I DO see all the iPhoto photos when I click Photos tab and DO see tunes when I click the Audio tab.
When I tried to drag an iMovie icon from the Finder view into the Drag Movies Here area, it would not work. Thus I just opened up iMovie and transfered 17 clips one at a time into the Drag Movies Here area and proceeded to burn a DVD. All was OK from that point on.
Any ideas on why Movie icons would not show up?

I don't use Xmarks, so I don't know whether that is a factor here...
If you use Ctrl+d on a bookmarked page, does the Edit Bookmark dialog appear?
Firefox doesn't have a convenient way to determine the location of a bookmark. One workaround is to use the extension [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/show-parent-folder/ Show Parent Folder] to add a column in the Library dialog showing the location of a bookmark. Then when you use the search function or Recently Bookmarked query, you should be able to discover the location.
The extension shows just the folder name by default. If that isn't unique enough, you can change a setting for the extension so it shows the full path down to that folder. To set this, open the Add-ons page, Extensions category, and use the Options button for Show Parent Folder.
