Not able to archive iDVD project

I cannot get iDVD to archive my project. I get the error message "there was an error while saving the project". I found a couple of discussions on this very error message, both led to insufficient disc storage. This doesn't seem to be an issue in my case and I am unable to figure out what the issue is. I have burned the project first to a disc image and from there to 2 DVDs, both without a problem. I want to archive the project in case I want to change to wide screen formating in the future. OK here's the low-down. The project info window gives the size of the project as 2.24 GB and the available space on my HD as 283.9 GB, when I attempt to archive, the drop down window gives the size as 7.543 GB. Color me ignorant, and you can use dark shades when it comes to this stuff, but isn't that plenty of room? And what's up with discrepancy in project size? The primary "asset" is an iMovie that weighs in at 8.17 GB prior to being exported to iDVD and consists of still photos out of iPhoto with transitions and other edits all rendered in iMovie, so no permission issues I can ascertain. Thanks for your assistance.

Thanks F Shippey… I am attempting to save the archive to my internal HD. I attempted to save to an external drive that is formated for Mac OSX to see if that made a difference but came to the same conclusion, the same error message. Per one of the discussions referenced in my original post, I checked the cable to the exterior drive, it is an OSB cable, not the preferred Firewire, but is that really significant? Both drives have plenty of space left if seems to me. Is this the only line of inquiry there is to this issue? I did attempt to archive another iDVD project that I'd created a while ago to see what happened, but, no surprise, some of the assets couldn't be found and I couldn't retrieve them. I am leery of this project ending up the same way. T.T.

Edit in iMovie using archived iDVD project?

Well it looks like I may done something rather stupid. Before the holidays I produced a family vacation video, burned the DVDs and sent them out to all my family members. After watching it they pointed out some typos in some captions and some editing mistakes, so I wanted to go back and fix those and burn new DVDs. But I just realized I'd archived the iDVD project but not the iMovie project. I trashed the iMovie project to recover disk space. So now I'm left with just the iDVD archive.
Is there any way to recover my iMovie project from the iDVD archive?
(I can't believe I trashed my iMovie files. That just isn't like me at all. <shame>, <embarrassment>, <lesson learned>)

You can recover the movie from the archived DVD project but the movie may be in several sections/clips. Just Control-click on the archived iDVD project file and select "Show Package Contents" from the contextula menu. Then go to the Resources/MPEG.nobackup folder.The sections/clips should be in there.
You can import those clipes into iMovie but won't be able to edit the captions, only cut them out and put new captions in over new clips. If you added captions to a black background and not over the movie itself you could cut out those sections and add new sections. But if you have to cut out parts of the movie with captions to add new ones that could lose a good bit of the original movie. In that case I thiink going with the typos would be the better solution.
When you're done use the Share ➙ Media Browser menu option with Size = Large. This will give a better final image than Share ➙ iDVD will. You will have to delete the existing movie file from the iDVD project and add the new, editied movie.

Re-edit archived iDVD project?

Hello,
How do I re-edit the iMovie underlying or embedded inside of an archived iDVD project on an external hard drive?
I have scoured MAC.help & TMManuals, and cannot find.
Thanks,
Scott

Rich,
What I think you are correctly saying is that these .avi movies, while not editable in themselves, when dragged into an iMovie project they can be edited to a limited extent --by splitting them, inserting photos or new clips in between, new audio, etc, and then dragging the new iMovie project back into the iDVD.
Yes
And this could be done whether or not you had the original iMovie project available.
Yes
You just could not as extensively edit it as if you actually had the original iMovie file to work with.
Yes

We are in complete agreement

Not able to update the project using 'BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN'.

I want to create a project , with reference to an already existing project.
I am using 'BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO' to get the data of the existing project.
The bapi gives the following:
1)     e_project_definition.
2)     e_wbs_element_table.
3)     e_wbs_hierarchie_table
I am passing the u2018e_project_definitionu2019 to 'BAPI_PROJECTDEF_CREATE' to create project.The project is created successfully.
But I am not able to update the project with u2018e_wbs_element_tableu2019
and u2018e_wbs_hierarchie_tableu2019. I am using 'BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN' to update the project.
The program is not giving an error, but it is also not updating the E_WBS_ELEMENT_TABLE and E_WBS_HIERARCHIE_TABLE.
I am attaching the code below.

I am not sure why it is not working?? Try for any other alternate function modules.
But i see one issue with your coding, always check the return table message type and use commit work, instead of sy-subrc check. This fails for BAPI's

XI is not able to archive file in file-idoc scenario

Hello friends,
I have an issue in my file->idoc scenario. When a file is placed to XI's filesystem using FTP, it is placed under xiftpuser user. Owner of all directories in this structure wher the file is placed is xiftpuser. XI is not able to archive the file because of the permissions on the archive directory. But the problem is, permissions on this directory are 775 and xiftpuser and xipadm user are in the same group. So this should work. But it doesn't. When I change permissions to 777 everything works fine.
Do you have any idea what could be wrong?
Does it matter, that xipadm user has been added to the common group with xiftpuser "later", when XI was up a long time before? Do we need to restart j2ee to take these new permissions into account?
Thank you,
Olian

Hi,
If archive directory Path is d:\archive
Put a '\' after it.
e.g. "D:\archive\"
It will work.

Hi Shamsuddeen,
Have you correctly configure in MSProject the connection to Project Server?

Project was not able to connect to project server

We have a user running Project 2007 who gets the following error when trying to open Project:
"Project was not able to connect to project server because of the following error: the credentials you used to login may not be correct."
The users PC had been disjoined and rejoined to our domain to fix a separate issue and since doing that she is getting this error when trying to open project. We have confirmed her network credentials are good and she is able to access other network resources
with no problem.
Thanks
Hank Vare

Sorry for the abbreviation used, by PWA i mean Project Web Access, which is the other interface for Project server essentially the IE where you open the Project Web App
I asked this based on the assumption given the error "Project was not able to connect to project server "
Hence assuming you are trying to connect to project server and you have a project server environment, if that's not the case and you are working standalone then navigate to Start >> All programs >> Microsoft office >> Microsoft Office tools
>> Microsoft Project Server Accounts >> Select the computer and Set it as default

How do I archive iDVD project? Best/Smallest size?

Hi,
I need to know the best method to save a movie project that was made in imovie, then burned to DVD using iDVD. I want to save a copy of the finished product for archival purposes on an external drive. I want to be able to pull up this archive and be able to burn another copy of it to DVD or just be able to view the archived movie on my powerbook (directly from the external. I want it to be saved in the smallest size. I am ruling out saving the imovie project, as that is usually up to 12 or 14gb. I tried to save the iDVD project that was burned to a disc, but I wasn't able to view that again, or burn it to another dvd disc? Would it make sense for me to edit the project like always in imovie, open iDVD, and save it as a disc image first, and then burn it to DVD-R whenever I need a copy? And if I do this, is the disc image file going to be able to be viewed on the powerbook, without using the burned DVD? Also, I read on here that the iDVD doesn't have an option to burn to disc image? I know Toast Titanium does. I have that also. But, can I edit the movie in imovie, and then just open Toast Titanium and use it to make a disc image? And then at a later date, call up the disc image with Toast and just use Toast to burn a DVD? Also, I should note that I will need to burn 2 imovie projects to the DVD (they are 1 hr long t.v. episodes each) I need to put 2 episodes on each DVD. I know how to burn them from imovie directly to iDVD, but then I am back to the whole question of archiving them in something other than imovie projects or iDVD projects?????????
Thanks to anyone who can advise
-Tom

Oh my, where to begin.
If you think you will ever want to change your saved iDVD project (change the menu, add more videos) then keep the Project file. That is what iDVD can read. After you've burned a DVD (or made a disc image) with iDVD there still is an encoded MPEG inside the Project file. So you don't need to save the iMovie, just the iDVD project file (or project folder if your version has more than just a file).
A disc image is the same thing as having the video DVD written to your hard drive. iDVD doesn't open a DVD; nor will it open a disc image. When you mount a disc image (double-click on it) there will be a new icon on your desktop. If you open DVD player, it will play the movie from the mounted disc image the same as if it was playing a DVD disc. You may need to choose Open VIDEO_TS in the DVD player File menu and select the VIDEO_TS folder in the mounted image in order to play the video. If nothing appears on the screen, press the space bar to start playback.
Disc images are burned in Toast using the Image File option in the Copy window. You can burn one disc image to one DVD.
What I recommend is that you add your multiple movies to your one iDVD project before saving a disc image or burning a DVD. iDVD 4 can handle up to 2 hours of video per DVD, although I think it is best to keep at near 90 minutes or less for best quality.
As for saving a copy for future use: you need to save the iDVD project itself if you want to re-use it in iDVD. If not, you can save a disc image which is the same as burning another DVD except it is on the hard drive. By the way, Toast can make a disc image from your burned DVD. Insert the DVD, select it in the Toast Copy window and choose "Save as Disc Image" from the Toast File menu.

Portrait orientation not recognised in Older iDVD project

I have posted some of these symptoms in various places, but I have had so many issues with this upgrade that I haven't had the time to thoroughly address each on in detail.
I upgraded ti iLife06 over the weekend and now an iDVD project that I started in iDVD 5 is significantly "messed up".
Firstly, it cannot find the images in the new iPhoto Library's new paradigm for folder management. So I have to locate these manually. I have tried to point iDVD to both the "Modified" iPhoto Library folder and the "Originals". Not sure which is correct. (I know that some have advised duplicating your old iPhoto library and pointing iDVD 6 to the "old" version)
Second, after manually locating all of the photos included in the iDVD project, iDVD does not seem to recognise that some of the photos are Portrait orientation. These were automatically rotated by my camera and imported into iPhoto accordingly.
Does anyone have an idea why iDVD 6 cannot do this AND how to fix it?
Thanks,
J.E. Flynn

Firstly, it cannot find the images in the new iPhoto Library's new paradigm for folder management. So I have to locate these manually. I have tried to point iDVD to both the "Modified" iPhoto Library folder and the "Originals". Not sure which is correct. (I know that some have advised duplicating your old iPhoto library and pointing iDVD 6 to the "old" version)
Second, after manually locating all of the photos included in the iDVD project, iDVD does not seem to recognise that some of the photos are Portrait orientation. These were automatically rotated by my camera and imported into iPhoto accordingly.
Does anyone have an idea why iDVD 6 cannot do this AND how to fix it?
Thanks,
J.E. Flynn

How to extract iMovie files from an archived iDVD project

Hi,
After archiving an iDVD project which contained several individual iMovies to my back up hard disk I deleted all of the individual files on my internal HD to free some space.
Query: Is it possible to extract an individual iMovie file from the archived project for future editing revealing all of the transitions, audio tracks, etc back in iMovie ?
I have used 'show package contents' and can see the individual movies as Quick Time files but when I load these into iMovie all I get is the whole movie as one single clip.
I suspect the answer is once it's archived I cannot retrieve the iMovie files ?
Any help appreciated. Many thanks.

...I ..can see the individual movies as Quick Time files but when I load these into iMovie all I get is the whole movie as one single clip. I suspect the answer is once it's archived I cannot retrieve the iMovie files ?
that is correct: hitting "export" or share in iM creates a single movie(file); what you have in mind is the imovie project (e.g. where you can change titles, transitions etc)... to make this accessible you need to backup that iM folder/package (the one with a star)... these files are for sure much bigger = containing more data...

Hi
Carsten Herbe is right you do not have read and write permission on the file.
either login by Administrator or ask Administator to give Read and write permission onthe same filePreference.properties
or
better to take Read and write permission on %OWB_HOME folder
