Mitsubishi DVD-R DL video CPRM disks rejected by iDVD6 with Pioneer DVR-111

As the title says, iDVD6 rejects my Mistubishi DVD-R DL CPRM discs.
I am trying to burn a 7.5 gig video project. iDVD says "Can't burn to single layer disc" after insertion. I have a new Pioneer DVR-111 in a DP 2Ghz G5 3gig RAM.
CPRM seems to be the culprit.
Any ideas, suggestions welcome.
DP 2Ghz G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

'CPRM' was Pioneers attempt to put copy protection on writable media. It stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media. You will see a serial number code in the silver ring closest to the center that is used in CPRM.
None of the other manufacturers picked up on CPRM and I though it was dead. It shouldn't interfer with normal use of the media.
In general on the forum, although we recommend DVD-R for single-layer discs, we recommend DVD+R for double-layer discs.

HOW CAN I MAKE A DVD FROM MY VIDEOS AND PHOTOS?

I have videos and photos in iphoto and want to make a presentation that will include photos intersperced with video. Is that possible? If so please advise. Not a high-tech kind of person

I've never done it with videos on iPhoto, so I'm not sure. You can certainly do it in iMovie.
Do you want it to play on a DVD player? If so, you'll need a DVD authoring program like iDVD. Older Macs shipped with iDVD, likely on a separate iLife '11 disk. Recently, Apple stopped bundling iDVD. If you have iDVD, once you finish the slideshow in either iPhoto or iMovie, Share it to iDVD. From there, you can pick a theme and add menus and such.

How to create a standard DVD from HD video footage

Hi everyone, apologies in advance if my question has no doubt been asked before. This is my first post and I am desperate for some guidance. I’ve scanned previous questions on similar topics and haven’t quite found the same query (or had the confidence to spot if it was the same problem!). Here goes.
My son recently videoed a family wedding using a:
1. SONY FX7 Camcorder.
2. In HD108i
3. Using mini DV tapes
4. The video included video footage, it incorporated single pictures from another camera and has a musical score in the background.
5. My son used Final Cut Pro to edit the film
6. The finished film is stored on the main memory of his MAC Book Pro and also on a separate external hard drive. At preent it can only be viewed using his MAC linked to the TV directly.
7. The memory used is…wait for it….20GB!
While the quality is first class we are clearly struggling to copy it on to a standard DVD that our relative can pop into their ordinary DVD player. I appreciate that the quality may well suffer if we can do this, but I cannot see any other way of getting copies of the video to those who attended in a friendly format. We will keep the master copy in its original format though.
Assuming that it can be done, would someone please advise me on the procedure? I would be most grateful. I’ve tried Apple technical support, but I might as well be asking for the whereabouts of the lost ark!
Many thanks in anticipation

Simple answer: Open iDVD and import the finished movie into it. Let iDVD take care of the DVD encoding for you, choose one of the wedding templates for your menu and burn it.
More complicated answer: Open the manuals for Compressor and DVD Studio Pro and learn how to use those tools to author DVDs.
The 20GB of disk space is completely normal for HDV.
It tells me that your movie is about 100 minutes long. Video takes a lot of space. Hard drives are cheaper than they have ever been.
Good luck with your project.

Satellite L50D-B - faulty DVD drive does not recognize disks

Bought 2 months ago. The drive does not accept CD's, DVD's or anything.
The name of the disk doesn't show up on the drive and if you double click on the DVD drive icon (while a disk is inserted) the tray opens up and says please insert a disk. I've tried many disks so they are not the issue.
So far I've taken it to tech support where I purchased it.
They said to do a reinstall so I did - with the full clean drive. I've tried updating the drivers but the computer insists that they are the latest. If I search for my model number on the Toshiba driver support site it gets rejected and I have no access to drivers (from Toshiba).
I checked out a few other forums and tried the regedit fix but that also did nothing. If no solution is found (and I've already wasted hours of my life on it) then this notebook is going to back for a refund and I'll get one that is going to perform the simple task of playing a DVD.

Hi
Sorry to hear that you have such stupid problem with your machine. On this virtual way it is not easy to say what is wrong there.
In my opinion you should not waste your time checking and searching for some drivers that probably will not help at all.
Reinstall original operating system that you have got with your machine and test functionality with factory settings. If the result is the same contact your local dealer or Toshiba service provider directly and ask for help. They can check ODD and exchange it if necessary.

Iphoto help needed for transferring video to disk

I need to transfer photos and video to disk to move them to another computer. For some reason the photos will transfer but the videos will not. They appear in iphoto as photos. Please help.

If you have Firewire cable you can connect the two Macs with it and boot one into Target Disk Mode, Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, and just copy the files from Mac A to Mac B.
If you can do that insert a CD or DVD into the optical drive, drag the movied onto the disk image on the Desktop and then drag that disk image to the Trash bin on the dock to burn the file to the disk.

Convert DVD and other video files for playback on iPhone, iPod, PSP, etc.

So, how are your holidays going? Or, if you're reading this on the weekend, how'd they go? Watching various sorts of DVD movies and videos is a better idea for a pastime during your free time. To make your holiday be more colorful with movies, I prefer to recommend an application to help you guys deal with different kinds of video resources, no matter the DVD files or footages shot by camcorders, or videos in formats of FLV, AVI, MKV, etc., in a word, the converted videos will be supported by whatever portable devices you have, including PSP, iPod Classic, iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPhone (3G), iPhone, Zune, Zune 2, Blackberry, Nokia, Creative Zen, Sony Walkman, iRiver PMP, Archos, PS3, Apple TV, Xbox, iPAQ, Pocket PC, Mobile Phone, etc. The software is Pavtube Video DVD Converter Ultimate, which combines DVD ripper and Video Converter together, and enables you to edit and convert any DVD, video, audio and image files to other popular formats including MP4, 3GP, FLV, MPEG-4, AVI, MPG, MOV, 3G2, VOB, FLAC, MKA, OGG, WAV, AC3, M4A with super fast conversion speed and excellent image and sound quality.
The detailed user guide will be shown in the following part:
Step 1: Add video and DVD file
You are allowed to add videos to this program via clicking "Add Video", and add DVD files to it via clicking "Load DVD". DVD files can be loaded in three ways: "Load DVD ROM", "Load DVD Folder", and "Load ISO/IFO".
Step 2: Select output format and set destination folder
Videos and DVD files can be added to this program at the same time, after that, you can click the drop-down list of "Format" to select an output format for your portable devices. The format profile provides you with formats for iPod, iPhone, PSP, PS3, BlackBerry, etc. Meanwhile, you can click the folder icon at the end of "Output" to decide where to save the output files. Moreover, if you want to combine multiple files to be a single file, you can tick "Merge into one file".
Step 3: Set advanced settings
If you have the needs of adjusting video and audio parameters to make good control of the output file quality and size, you can click "Settings" button to do it, and all the options like codec, aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, audio channel, etc. are changeable on the following window.
Step 4: Start conversion
As soon as the above steps are finished, you can click "Convert" button to start conversion, the following ripping window will show you clearly about all the conversion info. After finished, you are able to find out the output files via clicking "Open" button.

We're not supposed to talk about DVD conversion according to the terms of service ...
So I'll assume these VOB files are from your HOME MOVIE DVDs you burned yourself and suggest the Videora iPod Classic Video Converter.
http://www.videora.com/
It's a really nice program that converts not only your HOME MOVIE DVD VOB files, but AVI, MPEG, and others. You can set the CPU usage from high to low with five settings, it has a queue which you can add multiple files to, and it will minimize to the taskbar for compact convenience. There are other Windows programs that do much the same, but I prefer Videora. Oh ... and it's freeware!!

Thanks! But when I visit the site recently, I found the program was upgraded. Now it has 2 optimized output formats specially made for iPod 30G and 60G players! Thus it is easier and more convenient to use without complex settings as other software. Try it at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod.converter.exe
Another good news: there was a new discount suite ImTOO DVD to iPod Suitethat contains both the DVD to iPod Converter and iPod Movie Converter. It saves newly $20! Hope this can do some help

PQ DVD to ipod Video Converter

hi i have downloaded a free version of PQ DVD to iPod video converter and it seems ok and i was wanted to know if anyone else had it so that i could use the registry code to save me money. I would greatly appreciate this code
thanks

Sounds to me like you're asking for someone else's purchased registration code.
Using one code for 2 copies of software is illegal.
Purchase your own code.

Different DVD to iPod Video Converter Software for Mac?

Handbrake is the way to go.
Quicktime Pro does not have the ability to rip and convert DVDs.

Hello Robert,
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

IDVD created disk will not play with dvd player.

We created a 3 slideshow DVD in Idvd 7.1.2 with an additional file of some of the photos added to the DVD ROM. It plays on tv, but only intermitantly will play on the IMAC24, and not at all on the IMAC20. Dvd player says "no compatible disk". both macs have OS 10.6.8. We are using Sony DVD-Rs. How can we get this to play?

Hi
A. I set down burn speed to x4 => less burn errors ---- iDVD/Preferences/Advance - set burn speed
B. I only use Verbatim
C. I use DVD-R
D. I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk (only one important)
E. I use a Cleaning DVD from time to time

I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac, editing in imovie and burning on idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do?????

I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac then editing in imovie and burning dvd-r using idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do??????

At what point is the video quality bad? Is it bad on capture? I would recommend using an s-video 1394 firewire converter instead. They capture the video at a higher bit rate. If you have a lot of 8mm tapes to capture, invest in a stand alone DVD recorder. They capture and compress in one shot. If you need to rip it back from the DVD into iMovie again, I would recommend using DVDxDV.

Play dvd or quicktime video spread over multiple monitors

Okay, I have a Mac Pro with a 512mb ati radeon with 2x 20" monitors hooked up to it via DVI. What I want to do is watch a DVD or quicktime video spread over both monitors. Not just full screen on one of them, but spread all the way over both so that the center of the video appears in cross of the two monitors. anyone know of anyway or software to do this?

I am not sure about software options...it might work with a hardware device like this, depending on your graphics card capability:

Now, if you strech the video across both monitors, how can you multi-task and get any work done???
