Multiple DV tapes into one DVD

I'm trying to transfer two DV tapes from my Sony handycam into one DVD double layer using iDVD. Everytime the first DV tape has finished transfering and the DVD has finished burning, the DVD is ejecting. When I try to transfer the second DV tape, I have a message to insert a blank DVD. I then insert the first burned DVD, but the message tells me to put a blank DVD...Is there a way of burning two video sequences from two DV tapes on the same DVD?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You should import the DV videos into iMovie (I preferiMovie HD 6 to the newest version), one DV video to a iMovie project and save them. From there you can open iDVD and drag the iMovie project files into the iDVD menu window, being careful to not drop them in a menu drop zone. That will add those two movies to the iDVD menu.

  • Loading content from multiple MiniDV tapes to one DVD

    I am being offered this "One Touch" feature on iDVD to copy my Camera footage to a DVD. I am wondering what the best process is to follow if I wanted to, say, merge :30 minutes of content from one MiniDV and :20 minutes of content from another. Should I be uploading to iMovie instead? If I have the ultimate objective of a. having copies on DVD instead of MiniDV and b. using the content for video editing in iMovie, what is the best process to follow?
    1. Move all MiniDV to DVD and then work from that?
    2. Import clips into iMovie and move them to iDVD?
    Tips, best practices, advice appreciated.

    Brian,
    It's pretty much agreed here that the best storage medium for your MiniDV tapes, is the tape itself.
    I tried OneStep once. Yuk. I bring everything into iMovie HD.

  • Burn multiple imovie projects to one dvd with menu

    How do i burn multiple Imovie projects to one dvd with roxio toast 10? Can i add all of the projects or do i need to export them as a quicktime movie first or something?

    You can share the first movie from iMovie, but all the others will need to be exported from iMovie as movies and dragged into the iMovie project.

  • Multiple users logged into one server, each users printer has a different name, application needs ONE name to print to.

    Multiple users logged into one server, each users printer has a different name, application needs ONE name to print to. 
    I'm NOT in any way a Terminal Services expert and I need help trying to get an application program working in a multi-user environment.
    The issue is that the printer changes for every user that is logged in. The application needs to print NOT to the default printer, but to a "special" printer which is selected in the application... let's call it a label printer to simplify the explanation.
    You have your default regular printer, easy for the application to find that one, and then you have a special printer that labels get printed onto. The application needs to know what printer is the label printer. So we allow the user to select that in the
    application and the selection is stored in a config file in 
    C:\ProgramData\mfgr\prog\setting files
    I don't have access to the application so I can't change how this works.  
    In the "regular" world, selecting the label printer driver to use should be per machine, NOT per user. When a new user logs into a machine, the physical printer doesn't go "poof" and a new printer suddenly appear. Same printer for all
    users.
    Yet in terminal services, the physical machine is "merged" with the virtual machine on the server. And there can be many users logged in at the same time. So each users real machine (and real printer) is injected into the "fake" terminal
    services machine. The name of the printers is made unique for each user. So the printers DO go "poof" and change names depending on the user logged into terminal services.
    So user "A" logs in and sets up the application to print to "LabelPrinterForUserA" (or whatever the name of the printer happens to be), that setting is stored in the ProgramData subfolder, and all is well. Later, user "B" logs
    in, and when they print, the application tries to print to "LabelPrinterForUserA" which doesn't exist for user B or is only accessible by user A. If user B re-configures, that breaks it for user A. 
    SOLUTION 1: The way that /should/ work (in my mind) is that you define one "generic" printer in Terminal Services... call it "Virtual Label printer" and when the user wants to print to it, the print job gets re-directed back to whatever
    physical printer is actually connected to their local workstation. There is a map of virtual printer to actual printer depending on the current user. The application is told once to print to "Virtual Label Printer" for all users.
    SOLUTION 2: Or... there should be some way to make the ProgramData sub folders separate per user. E.g. when user "A" tries to access:
    C:\ProgramData\mfgr\prog\setting files
    they actually get 
    C:\UserData\UserA\AppData\mfgr\prog\setting files
    and user "B" gets
    C:\UserData\UserB\AppData\mfgr\prog\setting files
    So the question I have is: Does either of those solutions exist hidden somewhere in the setup of terminal server? Or is there another way around this issue that I don't know?

    I don't really have a "for sure" answer to this, but because people here can't seem to deal with a question that hasn't been answered I'll provide the best answer I did receive from ServerFault.com user Nathan:
    I can feel your pain with using old software on terminal servers ...the solution I've come up with definitely won't scale as it requires some manual configuration, but I've gotten this method to work with our label printers (which require to be
    printed to an LPT port...yep, that old).
    Share your USB-connected printers to the network on each machine. Then, have the user log in on aunique session for each of them
    (a TS account cannot be shared among computers for this to work) and install a network printer pointing to the USB one they shared. Try to use a DNS name to account for possible DHCP movements.
    After, it should work. Each user can do this since display names can be identical as long as the ports are different (which they are).
    This was clarified by the following series of comments:
    I think you are on to something here, and I originally advised the admin to do this. The problem he ran into is that it setup the printer names in the TS as "printer on usersworkstation"
    and he could not rename it except to change the "printer" to whatever. E.g. the "on userworkstation" remained. I believe there is another way of installing the printer which avoids this, but I can't find it. Ages ago, one used to do NET
    USE LPT2 \\computer\printer password /USER:domain\user /PERSISTENT:YES and then tell the driver to print to LPT2 –  James

    @JamesNewton That's actually the exact method we used. The way around the "network printer" part is to install it as local printer and map it to a TCP/IP port that way. –  Nathan

    17 at 16:28
    You mean in the case where the printers are TCP/IP connected and not local USB / LPT to the users workstation? That makes sense. Wonder if this will work for USB connected printers... –  James

    @JamesNewton You'd share the local printer on the client's PC then on the server connect via TCP/IP to it. You'd need static addresses or use DNS names if DHCP, though. –  Nathan

    Ah. Yes. I see. Looks like the LPT thing should work even with a USB connected printer:superuser.com/questions/182655/… –  James

  • Hello Apple community... I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.

    I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.  When I drag the doc in a line would show up in the past, and if I went above th eline all was good.  It doesn't have a line, and no matter what I try I am having no success.
    Please help!

    According to an Apple Support article, unless there are unforeseen issues
    in file ownership or permissions, the combining of .PDFs should be simple.

  • How do I put all my seperate video files into one DVD?

    Hey friends,
    Toby here again, thanks so much for giving me hint to the scroll bar, I've finished putting the audio into the video as well as the effects.
    Which means my movie's almost complete!
    However, while I await the music from my composers to be completed to put in the film for story-telling depth, I need help again.
    I have edited my movie into four seperate windows with this program, and I'm currently trying to figure out how I can put all of it together or all of it into one DVD because I need to watch and make sure the footage's video matches with the audio so it doesn't seem like a Godzilla dubbing or something.
    Give me as much suggestions as you could possibly give me, and thank you kindly for your time!
    -Toby

    Since you said DVD, I assume you're working in standard rather than hi-def video.
    As I show you in my books:
    1) Share/Computer/AVI with the DV preset to output each of your segments as a DV-AVI.
    2) Open a new project using the standard DV project settings.
    3) Import all of the segments and combine them on the timeline.
    Just as a note, a DVD can hold about 70 minutes of video at full quality. If you're video is longer than that, it's probably a good idea to spread it out over two or more discs.

  • Best approach to join multiple statistics tables into one

    I have read different approaches to join multiple statistics tables into one, they all have a column "productobjectid".
    I want to get all data for each product and put it to excel and output a jpg statistic with cfchart.
    How would you do this, the sql part?
    Thanks.

    A couple suggestions:
    1) when joining tables, its best to list both table/fields that you are joining in the FROM clause:
    FROM shopproductbehaviour_views INNER JOIN shopproductbehaviour_sails ON shopproductbehaviour_views.productobjectid = shopproductbehaviour_sails.productobjectid
    2) You add tables to a SQL join by placing another join statement after the SQL above:
    SELECT *
    FROM TableA INNER JOIN TableB on TableA.myField = TableB.myField
    INNER JOIN TableC on TableA.anotherField = TableC.anotherField
    3) If you have columns in the tables that are named the same, you can use column aliases to change the way they appear in your record set:
    SELECT TableA.datetimecreated 'tablea_create_date', TableB.datetimecreated 'tableb_create_date'
    4) Certainly not a requirement, but you might want to look into using <cfqueryparam> in your where clause:
    WHERE shopproductbehaviour_sails.productobjectid = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value="#all.productobjectid#">
     You might want to consider checking out one of the many tutorials on SQL available online.  Many of the questions you posed in your post are covered in pretty much every basic SQL tutorial.  Alternately, a good SQL book is worth its weight in gold for a beginning web applications developer.

    I have a paid subscription, but am no longer able to merger multiple pdf documents into one pdf. What's up?

    Pat:
    Below is a copy of an 8/7/2013 email from adobe. I prepaid a one-year subscription, and, until I recently upgraded to Windows 8, I was able to make several dozens of merged pdf documents. I seem to be no longer able to use the merge feature that I had successfully and repeated used. When I search for the merge feature I end up with a request that I pay for an upgrade monthly subscription to use the merge feature.

  • How do I put several DVDs into one DVD using iMovie?

    I have made 5-6 small movies over the years using iMovie based on family skits.  They average about 10 minutes each.  I have them all burned to DVDs.  I want to be able to put them all on one DVD instead of having 5-6 separate DVDs.  I thought it would be a simple process to copy each DVD to my computer and then add them and burn to one DVD.  When I duplicate the first DVD, it goes into a folder had has 2 files---neither of which I can open and play.  Then I tried to open iMovie and import the DVD to iMovie.  Can't get that to work.  Then I went to the Disk Utility and was about to create an image of the DVD and did something I'm not sure of which magically at some point imported to the iMovie project I had created for this.  I was able to get this process to work 3 times following the same steps (although I can't tell you why or what I was doing).  But then it just stopped working for the last 3 DVDs even though I did the same thing.  I don't have to use iMovie.  I just want a simple way to combine DVDs into one DVD.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as these are going to be Christmas gifts.  Thanks.

    If the iPhone is shown 'full-on' so the video doesn't have to be distorted then you could use 'Picture in Picture' in iMovie.  See: http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mova1aaa682b
    If, on the other hand you have an oblique view of the iPhone (as is the case in the video you reference) the movie will have to be distorted in order for it to fit the screen of the iPhone in the picture and show the correct perspective.  iMovie doesn't offer this flexibility and you would need to use Final Cut Pro.

  • Putting multiple iMovie projects onto one DVD

    I was wondering if there was a way to put multiple iMovie projects onto one DVD using iDVD?

    actually none of those options worked probably since the movies were in IMOVIE2
    Ah... You didn't say it was an iMovie 2 project. iMovie project is different from iMovie HD.
    I want to store the image file from the dvd's off site as I don't have the space to archive the projects - it seems I can't do that as it copies over to the server but shows up as a 4kb file - any suggestions how I can do this?
    I might be wrong (since I don't have iMovie 2), I assume iMovie 2 has the similar QT "reference" movie as the iMovie HD. This "reference" movie is not a "self-contained" (a QT term) movie, i.e. it only has instructions of the makeup of the "real" movies. You cannot use it to archive. If you want to offload your movie from your computer, you should copy the entire iMovie 2 project folder to an external archive.

  • FCP 10.1.3 multiple graphic images into one frame

    Hi - How do I put multiple graphic images into one frame? - so it kind of looks like a video wall - except these are still images. I can do it manually but it's not precise. Anyone found a way other than this? Thanks.

    Here is my quick and dirty generator called "9 Pictures": https://www.dropbox.com/s/92c536wgesh2yzj/9%20Pictures.zip?dl=0
    To install it, unzip the file and place the folder inside /Users/yourname/Movies/Motion Templates/Generators
    It will look like this in FCP X. You just have to click each drop zone icon in the inspector and then select the desired clip from the browser. Use the Pan and Scale controls in the inspector to select which part of each image you want to use. Note: this was done in the hope that it may be helpful, but it is no more than a quick thing. You can also control-click the generator in the generator browser and choose open in motion (if you have it) to see how it was done and to modify it.

  • Error Message When Merging Multiple PDF Files into One PDF File

    Good Morning,
    I have a problem with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I am trying to merge/combine multiple PDF files into one PDF file, but I keep receiving this error message:
    Does anyone have a fix for this? Thank you!

    To fix:
    Provide a unique name for each form field. This includes the individual PDFs fields. As you intend to combine/merge no field name in each of the individual PDFs can be the same.
    Be well...
