More than one movie per DVD

I bought the Noddy series of DVDs for my son (20 DVDs, with Noddy teaching english - I'm portuguese).
Each Noddy DVD only weights a little more than 1Gb. So, theoretically, I would be able to stuff, at lest, 3 DVDs into a single DVD. That would be wonderful for carrying them in my car, for him to watch the DVDs in the backseat (less DVDs and also, the added advantage of not carrying the originals inside the, sometimes, very hot car).
So, is it possible to burn several movies into a single DVD? For viewing on the computer it may be a simple case of creating several sessions. But, for viewing on the DVD player, is it possible?
Thank you very much in advance for any reply.

so, your question is:
how to get the content of mnay dvds on a single dvd?
a) copyrights - you have to clear how your local laws handle that...
b) copyright protection...- in case, "Noddy" has some, there are tools to "rip"...
c) two options: you can extract the .vobs of Noddy and re-create a new dvd-structure; advantage: no loss of pic quality; disadvantage: tricky, loss of orignal menu structure ...
d) demuxx DVDs, use tools as DVDxDV (free trial, 25$).. final files are huge, can be handled as "normal" iMovies...
loss of original menu structure again...
Plan B) record dvds with camcorder connected to dvd-player...
Plan C) use tools as "Handbrake" (probably illegal in Portugal) to convert content into much smaller mp4 for usage on laptops.....

  • Can you have more than one movie per page?

    Hi, I am creating a web site and have some movie content on some of the pages. Can you have more than one quicktime file on each page? Reason I ask is that on one page I have put 3 movie files but only one shows up when I run the site online. I am not using .mac. The website is on grapeape dot co dot uk and if you look at the examples page you should see what I mean. I get one video that works and 2 large "Q"'s where the other videos were. Odd because it works locally. Any ideas? Many thanks.
    Ben

    Just noticed something. If you leave it until the first movie caches or preloads - the second one appears. Is there a way round this at all? Thanks. Ben

  • Burning more than one movie to DVD

    This'll sound dumb but I would like to know if (and how) I can burn multiple .dv movies using iDVD5. As far as I can tell, iDVD5 only handles one movie at a time. In iMovie5, I created a number of movies and shared/saved them at maximum quality (.dv). They play fine in QT. Now, I want to burn them all onto a DVD. Is this possible?

    Hello Smiley,
    you should create a new topic for your question. That way it will receive more attention and other users may benefit from possible solutions as well.
    .... but as you are here already:
    Do you have chapters in your movie?
    If so check that you have set them according to "The Rules of Chapter Markers":
    - No chapter markers on or within 2 seconds of a transition.
    - No chapter markers within 2 seconds of the beginning or the end of the movie.
    Also:
    1. free some space on the startup drive (15-20GB recommended)
    2. Trash preferences (com.apple.iDVD.plist) and empty trash
    3. Repair Disk Permissions using Disk Utility
    Now create a new iDVD project and import your iMovie. Do not use the "Share to iDVD" option in iMovie, but save and quit iMovie then open iDVD and drag in your movie from the media pane or choose File > Import > Video.
    . iDVD is NOT a disc burning app, so leave that work to software designed for it. Instead use iDVD's "Save as Disc Image" option (File > Save as Disk image). This creates an .img file on your HDD, that can be stored for future use and gives you the option to preview your DVD on your Mac before burning to disc.
    Use Disc Utility or Toast to burn your DVD at slow speed. 4x is acceptable, 2x (... or even 1x) is better.
    Use high quality DVD-R (not DVD+R) media (e.g. Verbatim) to minimize burn errors and compatibility issues. Make sure the DVD is compatible with slow burn speed (e.g. 1x-4x)
    hope this helps

  • SOLUTION: Chapters of more than one movie usable on a single DVD

    If you want to put more than one movie with chapters made in iMovie onto a single DVD using iDVD--and have the chapters of all movies usable--do this: in iDVD, simultaneously drag the icons for all the movies you want to use into the background of the iDVD project. (Use command-click to select multiple movie icons, which are displayed on the right when "Media" and then "Movies" are selected.)

  • Adding More Than One Movie to a DVD

    I am making iDVDs that are just about 15 minutes long. Since the dvd I am using holds up to 4.7 gigabytes, I would like to add more than one movie to a dvd project. How do I do that?

    Look in the folder of an iMovie project. Let's say the project is called "My Great Movie"
    There should be a small file with the name "My Great Movie.mov" That is the reference movie.
    If you open iDVD directly rather than from iMovie and create a new iDVD project, just drag the reference movies onto the iDVD window and it will add the movie to your project.
    On the finished DVD, you pick a movie to play it. When that movie finishes, it puts you back to the main menu to pick another.
    Does this sound like what you want ?

    This is exactly what iDVD is made for.
    Complete your iMovie projects and save each to disc.
    Open iDVD selecting new project and choose a theme.
    Now drag each of your five .mov files from the movie project folders into the screen area of your iDVD project.
    You can now play around with titles different themes, backgrounds etc. to your heart's content.
    Good luck.

  • Sharing More than One Movie with iDVD????

    Okay.. I would like to know if there is another way to burn MORE than one movie an iDVD project. It seems that sending the movie straight to iDVD creates it's own project, and when you try to send another movie, it creates a completely different project. I know I can send a movie to Media browser but the quality of the movie is much better when I share it via the command in iMovie 09 (Shrare->iDVD). I've noticed that the file type is different when you send it to iDVD than when you put it in Media Browser as well.
    Currently this is what I do.. Share it to iDVD.. Then I save that iDVD project to my desktop. I close iDVD, and start sharing my second movie. I then Control-Click on the first iDVD project and choose "Show Package Contents". I then dig into the trenches of that file to find the movie file. I then drag it to the desktop and delete the first iDVD project. When the new iDVD project gets made, I simply drag the file on my desktop into the iDVD project I want it in and then it works. This seems like a so un-apple way to do this though. I think iMovie definetly needs and update here. It's great if you ony want to burn a 1 movie to iDVD, but what if you want to do more. There should be a way to select multiple movies to send to iDVD or the option of adding a new imported movie to the current project in iDVD.
    Am I missing something or is there another way to do this? Is there a good export option in QuickTime? DV doesn't work because the quality I get is horrible. Somehow the shared to iDVD movie is the best quality and it's a QuickTime file via h.264. Is that my best export option? Sharing with the Media browser creates a mv4 file that's much smaller in size, even at the largest setting. The frames are more jumpier when iDVD finishes with it than the h.264 file.
    Any better suggestions? Also, where do I go to make suggestions for Apple. I can't find it anymore on this website.

    Q:Also, where do I go to make suggestions for Apple.
    A: Launch iDvd and then scroll down to Provide iDvd Feeback.

  • How do I configure the Airport utility to allow more than one rule per port?

    How do I configure the Airport Utility (AU) to allow more than one rule per port?
    I am on a home network, with broadband cable modem.  I have my airport extreme connected to the broadband modem.  I have 2 servers in my home that need to be accessed remotely from time (SSH), and they also serve data for an iphone app, so I'm using a variety of protocols.  The problem I'm running into is that AU seems to only allow one rule per protocol, so if I go to add another address for access on a specific port that is being used by one of my servers, AU tells me "The Port Mapping Entry Already Exists". 
    I need to be able to allow SSH on both of my servers, for instance.  Am I missing something?  Is this doable with AU?
    Thanks for any insight.
    Khalid

    The Port Mapping "rules" on the AirPorts will allow you to: 1. Map a single port to a single IP address OR 2) Map multiple ports to a single IP address.
    What you won't be able to do is map a single or multiple ports to multiple IP addresses.

  • Can I have more than one iphone per email account?

    When my son got his iphone 4s I used my email address since he didnt have one yet.  I have since gotten an Iphone 4s also, but when I went to activate it I had to put it under another email account, since mine was used for my sons iphone, so I used my husbands.  My husband now has an iphone on order and I was wondering if there was a way of having more than one phone per email account?

    I would set up a new email for him.  That will give you a new icloud account.  Also any apps that he downloaded with your ID will forever be linked to that ID and can only be updated with that ID.  If that is a problem then you might delete those apps and download them again with the new ID ( and if they were paid apps you need to pay again)

  • Can I add more than one movie to the movie page

    I'd like to put up a gallery of movies  but don't know how to do that.  How can I add more than one movie to the movie template page?
    Thanks,
    Gina

    I use the YouTube widget. It has the advantage of not loading clips until one actually selects the clip. When I started I just dragged the quicktime files to the page...not a good idea as it forced a viewer to wait for all of them to load.
    Miro has some options.

  • Using colorTrans:ColorTransform on more than one movie clip

    Hi I am very new to Flash and action script so please bare with me...
    I would like to be able to change the color of more than one movie clip in the same layer in the same frame. Basically I have place two different movie clips with defined instances,i.e. body and shoulder onto the canvas in one frame on the timeline.
    I have created three different buttons (red_btn, blue_btn, and yellow_btn) to use to change the color of say the body or shoulder. I would use red and blue to change the body and say yellow and green to change the shoulders. These are also on the same layer and same frame on the timeline as the movie clips.
    The problem I am having is how would I declare the two movies or variables to change independantly? Would I need to place one movie clip on one layer and then place the other on a different layer so that when I press the button I want i.e. the red button, it only changes the body and not the shoulders.
    Here is my actionscript that I am using to change the color of the clip(s)
    import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
    import flash.geom.Transform;
    var colorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
    var trans:Transform = new Transform(body);
    trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    blue_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0x0000FF; // blue
        trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    red_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0xFF0000; // blue
        trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    yellow_btn.onRelease = function () {
    colorTrans.rgb = 0xFFFF00; //yellow
    trans.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    body here is my declared variable wich is the body of a shirt that is one movie clip. When you place both clips on the timeline ontop of each other, you basically get a shirt with different color shoulders and body.
    I need some help to know if this is possible first of all, and then what would be the best way to delcare the variables in one actionsript.
    Thanks and I am sorry, I just never learned much when it came to flash. Thanks for any patience and help anyone is willing to give me.

    every movieclip has a transform.colorTransform property that you can use to assign a color transform (with any rgb property).  so, for example:
    import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
    import flash.geom.Transform;
    var colorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
    bluebody_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0x0000FF; // blue
      yourbodymovieclip.tranform.colorTransform=colorTrans;
    blueshoulders_btn.onRelease = function() {
        colorTrans.rgb = 0xFF0000; // blue
    yourshouldersmovieclip.transform.colorTransform = colorTrans;
    yellowbody_btn.onRelease = function () {
    colorTrans.rgb = 0xFFFF00; //yellow
    yourbodymovieclip= colorTrans;
    etc

  • Why cant i have more than one movie at a time

    why cant i have more than one movie at one time

    It may be how much space is available on your iPad. The average movie is around 2.5 gigabytes. If you reach your space limit then you can't download anything until you clear space.

  • HT1657 Can you rent more than one movie at the same time?

    Can you rent more than one movie at the same time on itunes?

    I think Justin is correct and you should have statistics in place and a reasonable partition scheme so that the optimizer selects the correct partitions rather than telling it what to do. You paid a lot for partitioning after all.
    There are some, possibly misguided, examples in the manuals showing how to create a view so you can delete from a single partition without specifying the partition criteria in the delete statement. This in effect turns partitioning back into DIY partitioning i.e. separate tables, union all and pretend its a single logical table using a view. But backwards.
    So to do what you want you just assume the partitions are separate tables, and then use union all to glue the ones you want back together.
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2000)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2001)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2003)
    union all
    select * from sales partition (sales_q1_2004);It probably goes without saying that as well as making the expensive version of partitioning behave like the free alternative, there is the possibility that it will perform like it as well.

  • Projector that plays more than one movie

    How can I make one projector play more than one movie? If the movies are protected, can the projector still play them? How can I link them? Thanks for your help.

    Hi Norman,
    I’ll elaborate on Sean’s reply.
    As Sean mentioned you can use:
    _movie.go("markerName", "MovieName")
    To jump to the marker named ‘Markername’ in a movie called ‘MovieName’.
    I tend to still use the verbose syntax
    go to "markerName" of movie "MovieName"
    If you had:
    go to movie "MovieName"
    you’d jump to the start of the movie (frame 1)
    you could use:
    go to movie "MovieName.dir"
    but the '.dir' is not needed and if you create a protected DXR or DCR, the statement (without the movie extension) would work.
    Now, if you want to avoid writing a unique behavior for every link you’re creating, I’ve got a tutorial that describes how to do it at:
    http://www.deansdirectortutorials.com/Lingo/paramDialog.htm
    The above uses property variables and a parameter dialog box. It does require some understanding of programming (not too much though).
    If you have D11.5, in the Library Palette, in the ‘Controls’, category, there is a ‘Jump to Movie Button’ behavior. This behavior can be dragged and dropped onto a sprite and then you can type in the marker name and movie name in a parameter dialog box to set the link for the sprite. I say D11.5 because while earlier versions of Director have this behavior, there is a small error (easily fixed) that makes the marker jumping part non-functional. Anyway, my behavior in my tut site does the same thing.
