Part on video missing after burn.

Hi...long story short, I hope. I made a movie in iMovie which has a video clip (from a camcorder) that shows an actual "spark" on film in slow motion. (I want to see the "spark" and I do see the "spark" in iMovie.) However, when I burned the video to DVD and played the DVD, the "spark" was gone. Not only was it gone on the DVD, but I went back into iMovie, and it was also gone there. Have any idea why? May it have anything to do with "Render and Proceed"? -Another question...do you have to "Render" or should you always "Render"? Any help is greatly appreciated.-Kim

Hi Kim
There are two things I NEVER use in iMovie - any version:
• Share/Export to iDVD - from within iMovie. Rendering is in some cases harmful
• Never empty Trash in iMovie (on Desktop is OK) - Just a trouble maker.
To make my DVDs I:
• When done in iMovie - Close it
• Find the movie project icon (With a star on it)
• Open iDVD
• Import (or just drop) the movie project icon (With a star on it)
Now iDVD will do the rendering - and so much better.
THEN: I do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
This I test with Apple DVD-player.
Sparkle still there - OK - two options:
• Burn with iDVD (recalculating) (burn speed can be set in iDVD08 only)
• Burn with Apple Disk Util tool - or Roxio Toast™ if You got this and then
set burn speed down to eg x1 or as low as possibly - DVD will play better.

Video hangs after burning on a DVD

Hi,
after burning a project with menus and several chapters, I notice the DVD is hanging after a few chapters. My DVD burner itself should be ok, I got no hardware failures and it's working fine with Nero Burning ROM. Any suggestions??
Tx a lot,
Kristof

You used iTunes to burn the CD? If so, it should work. The question is, did you choose "back up to disc," or did you create a playlist, and choose "Burn playlist to disc?"
If you do it the first way, you are just saving the actual music files (not in CD format) to a CD.
If you create playlist and burn playlist to disc, you are making an actual Audio CD that will play in any CD player.
If you are already using the second method, are you using a CD-R, or CD-RW? Some players have problems w/RW's.
Btw, iTunes songs are not MP3 format, so I don't think you'll be able to find a "converter." LOL

Lots of YouTube subscription videos missing after last update?

After the latest software update for Apple TV I noticed a LOT of Youtube videos were missing from my subscriptions, and in some cases, entire channels. The channels are still there to be selected, but it acts as though they contain no videos. This even includes Apple's own YouTube channel among those affected. Some other channels have a few, but not all of their videos, and some were completely unaffected and still have all their videos.
I submitted a bug report to Apple, but wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue since it seems to have happened only after the last software update.

It's not just you.

IPhoto '08 videos missing when burning a CD

Talk to me like I am 5 years old, maybe younger lol
I burned a disc today, and it burned everything except the videos.
I try also to "drag" photos to the desktop, and that doesn't work.
I find iPhoto very difficult to use....I am alone, I'm sure.
I clicked on the tutorials and they don't work...it says it's a bad link.
I guess I'll have to take my computer to a genius and have them explain this all to me.
The only problem is that I'm 3 hours away from my nearest Apple store.
sigh

I figured out how to get it to the desktop..I just copied and pasted

Templates background layer missing after burning

I use DVD Studio pro 4.0 and did a couple fine Dvds of my film projects. Now when I use a template from the palette and encode and burn the Dvd, an error mesage comes up in the log menu: THE LAYOUT WILL NOT BE INCLUDET IN YOUR DISC" and the transistion will, but not the background .... Help!
I have trashed the .plist file, nothing helps, what did I do wrong?

THE LAYOUT WILL NOT BE INCLUDET IN YOUR DISC"
That is normal message
Try turning on software encoding in the DVD SP prefs instead of hardware, not sure how old your G4 is or what video card, but that is one thing to try

Music and Videos missing after sync

I recently upgraded my iTunes to 10.5 and my iPhone to iOS 5. after the upgrade my phone worked fine had its music and what not. then I connected it to my computer to charge it. iTunes synced with it which is fine but when I disconnected it after it finished my iPhone said it had no music or videos on it. I connect it to my computer again and iTunes. I browse my phone through iTunes and I see all my music and videos but when I double click them iTunes says it can't find it. I have iTunes setup to automatically sync all checked songs. I did a restore on my phone then restore from backup and the music and videos where back. I unplugged my iPhone and plugged it back in and after the sync they are gone. what's going on?

Same problem here. After the update, all my music was gone on my iphone. I have try to sync many time and nothing happen

Video Distortion after burning i.e. "tracing"

Hello all. I have been working on this project for a couple weeks now. I do a lot of "copy and paste" edits where people bring in dvd's and other media and want me to put together a demo disc or something of that sort. This high school student has brought me a bunch of basketball footage I have imported and created a nice dvd. While watching it in FCP and DVDSP the video looks fine. Once I push it to DVD there is a massive amount of distortion, in the form of "tracing" following the basketball players on the court, to the point where it has become nauseating. I have fooled around with my settings in DVDSP and have not been able to fix this.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have my encoding setting set at Two Pass VBR
Bit rate - 7.6
Max Bit Rate 8.9
It is a short video compilation, maybe about 15-20 mins long
Thanks in advance.

nothing quite so dramatic. We can't see it but I'm guessing you're seeing interlacing artifacts. My guess is that the interlacing got out of step somewhere. The easiest thing is just to make your video progressive out of compressor. then the DVD player can deal with it.
How are you getting your video from FCP to DVD SP? The ideal way is to go through compressor. And in there you can switch your rendered output to progressive, that is remove the interlacing. Of course it's a guess from here. I'd do a test of one of the tracks and put it back on the DVD and see what happens. You'll have to make sure you remove the old track from the DVD.

Video Missing After Reinstalling on New Computer

I backed up my "My Music" directory, deauthorized itunes from my old computer, reinstalled itunes on the new computer and restored the directory "My Music" and let itunes redo the music.
However, while the music is all there, the 10 or so episodes of Monk are not. Does anyone have an idea as to why?
Is video kept in a different location and perhaps I didnt back it up like i thought?
Thanks.

I don't really understand ... you wouldn't re-install on a new computer ... you would install, not re-install ... so I'm not sure what your concern really is.
Nevertheless, any installation or re-installation can be done from the installation disk.

DVD blurry after burning

I am new to Premiere Elements and I have a JVC HD video camera. The video quality after burning seems like the digital is shakey when moving but on PC its good?

I am not really sure the answer to your questions but here is what I did. I uploaded video
to my PC from the video camera and I can view the video in the Adobe Elements however,
after I burn to DVD or view in Premier elements it is grainy and seems to be unstable with
movement. It seems better when I view the video on the DVD on the computer when I make the screen smaller.
The only setting I changed was when it asked while burning the dvd on the quality to fit it to the DVD or better quality and I chose the top quality?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

After putting still photos into the time line the pop up all over my video when I burn a CD or load to YouTube

After putting still photos into the time line the pop up all over my video when I burn a CD or load to YouTube.
The video in FCPX looks fine, But when I load it the photos will play over top of each other or double play.

Export your project as Quick Time Current Settings by choosing Export Media in the Share menu. See if the movie plays correctly in QT Player. If it does, upload that to Web.

Button Rollovers not Appearing after burning

Hello,
Need some help. I created a DVDSP project with multiple menus and multiple tracks. Everything has been connected correctly, along with using a standard Overlay (white when you rollover, yellow when you select). All end jumps are fine, in fact in Simulator, it's picture perfect.
The problem is when I burn the DVD and test, I cannot see where my activate button is. I cannot see either on a Mac in DVD Player or in a stand alone DVD Player.
Is there a setting I'm missing to make the tracks (buttons) viewable in each Menu?
For example, Menu 2 has 6 tracks. When I select Menu 2, there is no white box to tell me where I am.
In Simulator it's a snap, work perfectly. After burning it's guess where you are...
Please help!
Thanks
Dan

OK - so you have the background as m2v - that's fine. Did you remember to create an overlay file? It is this that will give colour to the rollovers...
A dash, underline, arrowhead, dot, splodge or whatever is normal to see on menus as buttons are selected. These shapes are in the overlay (actually a part of the subpicture stream) and are shown when the button is selected. At all other times they are transparent. In your case, if you don't want an underline, you need to copy the text in the background footage into an overlay file.
An overlay is simply a still image (usually a pict, not JPG - they are not good to use) which is the same size as your video format (720x480, etc) It is mostly white and only has the shapes that you wish to appear as the rollover - in your case some text. You can either do it in grayscale or use colour - the colours get 'mapped' in DVDSP and for ease, use grayscale.
To line up the words you want, take a still form the background movie and use this as a guide in photoshop. Hide that layer when exporting your pict file.
When you import into DVDSP and add it to your menu you will then be able to colour the text as you roll over it. Without an overlay file you are left using the built in text tools, and yes, they can look very blocky. IMO, by far the best look is achieved when you don't use text as he highlight, but use some other shape instead, usually alongside the text somehow. It's a personal preference, and I'm sure you've got ideas of your own!

Iphoto, imovie, iweb missing after mountain lion upgrade...

I have a mid 2010 iMac that I have kept up to date and recently upgraded to Mountian Lion. Everything has been fine except that I noticed that iLife was missing right after the update... And I didn't purchase it in the app store because it came with my iMac. In fact, the iMac came with Snow Leopard on it I think. But I haven't the slightest idea where that disk is because we lost a few things that I haven't located yet in our move last year. I have another copy of Snow Leopard that I goes to my 2009 MacBook that I already had. It seems quite frustrating that the programs just disappeared and they've never done that before on any other upgrade! I have no need to purchase and upgrade to iLife 11 as I only use iPhoto and iMovie for iPhone photos/video because I have everything else in LightRoom already. But I would like iPhoto/iMovie back! How do I go about doing this? Can i use my backup to get it back somehow? Just confused on how to tget it back and my searches yielded very little... Thanks!

sorry... i meant '09 version... I just knew it wasn't '11 (assumed '09) because I haven't upgraded to the '11 versions. I said iLife because I lost all 3-iphoto, iweb and imovie. Well, I see that iweb isn't a part of '11 and is going away and i am just now seeing that. And noticing that I lost GarageBand in addition (i just don't use it to notice it was also missing after the upgrade).
And again, they all came installed on my computer, not from me purchasing it via app store. Technically I guess it wasn't a part of the OS, I just meant that it came with the imac and was part of my imac purchase. I only remember having an install disk (not a seperate ilife disk) that came with my imac but i am unable to find any of it because of a move (and haven't located the disks that came with the 2010 iMac). Again, I have the snow leopard os upgrade disk that I purchased (prior to buying my imac in 2010) that I bought to upgrade my 2009 MacBook Pro. But again, it isn't the SL install disk that came with the 2010 iMac (which is the computer we are discussing here) However, my 2009 MacBookPro was upgraded to ML right after I upgraded the iMac on the same exact dayand I DID NOT lose iphoto, iweb, imovie and garageband on that MacBook Pro. And it was the 09' also because I had not upgraded either computer to '11 version. So, the programs went missing on the imac upgrade only, and not the macbook-so there has to be a reason why... I did not mean that iLife came with an OS Upgrade -only that it came with all purchased apple computers. sorry!
Sberman-I will try to load the iphoto link that you gave above and see if it restores the iphoto and my catalog, etc. Someone I know suggested that it's all still there - but i am just missing the iphoto programs (and other programs) for some reason and all should be restored once it's reloaded.

Subject : Slideshow looks bad
Hello guys
I have a project in my Final Cut just about done. I want to add my slideshow as part ofthe project and burn it to DVD. Inmy slideshow, there are some stills from the movie clips and some downloadedfrom the internet but they all look blur when playback and even worse if Iapply Ken Burn to it. Pleasesome one can tell my how to do it right or it can’t be done because thedownload quality and stills from the clip are not suitable or slideshow. Thank you
PSC

Thank you Ross.
The entire DVD containing Quick Time movies (Final CutExpress project) and slideshow was done in iPhoto. The Final Cut project was rendered prior to export to QT, the slideshow was sent to iDVD withoutrendering. The slideshow with most of the pictures from my still camera incombination with stills from movie clips and some downloaded from the Internet.After burning, the movie playback is perfect but the slideshow is not. The slideshow containing 3 differentkinds of pictures; those from my still camera looks OK; the stills from themovie clips and from the Internet are not. I don’t have much knowledge in this game, but I think NTSCwith frame size 720x480, and the downloaded picture Item Property shows most ofthem are between 400 to 500 x 300 to 600, may be both of them are not suitablefor TV screen while the stills from my still camera looks OK because they are2048x1536. Please enlightenme. Once again, thank you so much,I really appreciate the time you offered.
