PDF to DVD and Audio MM

Windows 7 and CS4 Production Premium, LR3 and Acrobat X Project "A": Acrobat allows me to generate pages with multimedia functions included. I can use Photoshop to convert the pages to TIFF. These pages then can become slides for a DVD presentation. I would have to add the pdf page audio for the appropriate slideshow images as an extra step. QA1: Does anyone know of an application that will convert a PDF document pages to TIFF directly? As far as I know, using Photoshop to do this is a PDF page load then save as TIFF for each PDF page. QA2: Is there any application that will convert a PDF document directly to a DVD presentation? Project "B": The image used for the audio player when an audio multimedia item is added to a PDF page contains not only the player control "line" but a large background area. Would like to crop the background area so as to not affect the player line size. QB2: How can that be done? Where is the image located?

Dave, thanks for your response.
I have been doing so many "experiments" in this area, I forgot the conversion of save as----image----TIFF in Acrobat. Understand that the interactivity functions in a PDF file are another conversion issue. It is not that it could not be done by some software application but appears nobody has written such an application. The only way I am aware of at this time is to take the TIFF "slides" and put each slide as a timeline asset into PPRO and then add the audio clips as desired. Not sure abouit the video clips on a PDF page. Anyway, was just checking to see if any software solution existed.
Thanks again.

DVDs and Audio CDs refused in OS 10.5 - fine under Boot Camp Vista...

Hello.
I have a MacBook Pro 2.2 SR (bought November 07) and now find myself having trouble with the optical drive recognising certain audio cds and dvds.
I thought I'd try seeing if the same thing occurred under Vista (Boot Camp) on the same machine and they mount fine. Which leads me to believe OS 10.5.4 is to blame.
I have repaired permissions and I still have the same problem so could anyone suggest a remedy?
Many thanks in advance.

It seems to be random now. It'll play fairly new DVDs but I put in the original DVD release of The Matrix and it won't mount.
I really don't want to be sending my only computer away over a crappy optical disc drive. It seems that this is quite common with MacBook Pros by reading some forums.
I think it is the drive after all though.
Anyone else suffering with the same problem?
Cheers.

DVDs and Zips not readable

Recently some zip discs have been opening a window that tells me that they are unreadable by this computer, now I have gotten that message with all movie DVDs that I had been playing sucessfully in the past. This is happening on both of my computers the other being an ibook. The DVDs still play on my television player. The computers can still recognize software DVDs and audio CDs.
Power Mac G4 dual Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Sounds like a system issue, I have this happen from time to time and usually maintaince (Onyx, repair permissions etc.) straightens it out, will also usually run Diskwarrior on the Hard Drives (or Zips) It is strange that both computers have this at the same time, I would say check the cord, but that should not be affecting all the DVDs also.
So it sounds like a software/prefs issue.
Try creating a new user account and see if that helps. (Have you done any rcent software updates or OS?)

Getting Ripped DVD Video and Audio Into Encore

Do you have previously authored DVDs that need rework? Do you want to add menus with greater impact and functionality? Do you want to add some additional program or supplemental material? Does a client want their product demo DVD to be updated to reflect the capabilities of the new and improved version, but the source files no longer exist? Using Adobe Encore DVD and a freeware utility called DVD Decrypter (DVDD), you can accomplish this quickly and easily.
Disclaimer: I do not support the illegal copying and/or distribution of copyrighted works. The authors and distributors of the software I use have made it clear that they do not support illegal copying. This guide is intended solely to assist you in ripping and copying DVD video to which you have the legal rights. Any use of this guide to infringe the copyright of someone else’s intellectual property is prohibited.
This guide is based on Adobe Encore DVD 1.5.1 and DVD Decrypter version 3.5.4.0. Let’s Begin!
Place the DVD to be ripped in your DVD drive and launch DVDD. If you have more than one drive (e.g., a DVD-ROM and a DVD burner) make sure the one with the disc is selected in the Source dropdown list in the main program window. Now we need to set up DVDD to extract video in a way that is “Encore friendly”. This is the toughest part of the whole exercise. Click on the Tools menu item and choose “Settings…”.
Settings
General Tab: You can leave these set at their defaults if you like. Personally, I specify a custom Default Destination. I put my ripped video assets all in one place anyway, and having a default destination means I have one less thing to do when I rip a DVD.
IFO Mode Tab: Make sure that “Select Main Movie PGC” and “Enable Stream Processing” are checked. “Uncheck Suspect Cells” is probably a good default safety check. If your hard disks are formatted as NTFS, set File Splitting to “None”. I leave “Copy IFO File” checked with the default sub-items checked. Make sure that “Patch M2V Timecode” is unchecked. The items in the Create Additional Files section are purely optional. The author of DVDD has been kind enough to list which programs need which files; notice that Encore DVD isn’t listed as needing any of these extra files. I do keep the “Stream Information” box checked. DVDD generates very informative file names, but I like to keep “Include PGC Number” under File Names checked. Be advised you will get some lengthy file names after DVDD is finished ripping.
Stream Processing Tab: Since we enabled stream processing in the IFO Mode tab, we need to tell DVDD how to process those streams. To save yourself time and confusion later, check the “Convert PCM to WAV” box. Earlier versions of Encore required a Demuxed audio stream and a Raw video stream. Encore 1.5.1 can accept either type of video stream (Raw or Demuxed) but it does still require a Demuxed audio stream. However, I still recommend using Raw video and Demuxed audio, if only because it seems to be somewhat faster to process in DVDD. This workflow is also backward-compatible with earlier versions of Encore.
So let’s set up the Stream Processing tab now. In the Demux box, enter “0x8? 0xA? 0xC?”. This ensures that all audio streams in the selected PGC, whether AC3, PCM or MPEG will be set to Demux. In the Raw box, enter “0xE0”. This ensures that the video from the selected PGC will be set to Raw.
Additional Notes about the Stream Processing Tab:
1. For those of you asking the question, “What the heck is a PGC?” it’s just DVD-speak for the titles in a DVD project. And I’m not talking about the opening or end credits, either; I’m talking about the titles that result, for example, from the timelines you create in an Encore DVD project. There is a subtle difference between a PGC and a VTS (title set), but that's not important right now.
2. Happily, recent versions of DVDD create a WAV file after ripping that will import directly into Encore. Versions prior to 3.2.0.0 would create a WAV file that had to be imported to, and exported from, a sound editing program like Adobe Audition, Goldwave or SoundForge before Encore would recognize it.
Events Tab: For convenience sake, I recommend setting “Set Program Mode” in the Startup section to “IFO”. That way, whenever you launch DVDD, it will look familiar to you. You may safely ignore all of the other tabs in the Settings dialog.
Ripping
1.Under the Input Tab of the main program window, select the PGC you want to rip. You can only do one at a time.
2.Switch to the Stream Processing Tab. Verify that Enable Stream Processing is checked.
3.Check or uncheck any or all of the video and audio streams that are listed. Highlight each one to verify that all audio streams are set to Demux and the video stream is set to Raw.
4.If you didn’t select Default Destination in the General Settings Tab, then you need to tell DVDD where to put the ripped files now.
5.Click on the big DVD-to-Disk icon.
6.DVDD will announce, quite loudly, when it has finished. At that point you can rename the files or import them as is into Encore.
I hope you find this guide useful and that it helps you get the most out of your investment in Adobe Encore DVD.

OK, I can't tell you what we are doing, you'll have to trust me that it's for a very good cause. I'll simplify the use case as an example. If I can do the following we'll be OK:
1) Read video/audo files from a DVD that we created
2) Open these files with the QuickTime Player, click on Export to Apple TV to create an output file.
I'd rather not do an interim conversion of the video data (like use a 3rd party app to convert to mp4 first and then read into QT, but I'm considering a conversion to DV) because that could seriously hurt the apps effectiveness. I also can't use another app (MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, VisualHub, etc.) to do the conversion.

My computer no longer has audio and it won't play DVDs or audio CDs.

As stated in the suubject line, my computer no longer has audi and it won't play DVDs or audio CDs. It's an hp Pavilion dv6-6c 15nr Entertainment PC. I haven't had it a year yet.

Hi. I use Adobe Acrobat XI pro to make a PDF ebook embedded with audio. It works really well on my computer-I can read the book and hear the auto play mp3. The problem is, when I send it to my customers, they have difficulty hearing the audio. A few of them say they have Flash player on their PC and somehow they still can't hear, some say their Google Chrome browser tells them they've already got one flash player while they try to download one. For me, I had to download two versions of Flash player to be able to access to the audio. I don't know what the problem is, is it because it's the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro that people with older version of Adobe reader or flash player can't open it properly? Or is it something else? How can I make sure every customer with different system can access to my books? Hope to hear from you ASAP! Thank you very much.

And how are the customers accessing the PDFs?
What devices are they using?
What program or apps with versions are they using?
I this age of other then PDF eBooks formats and reader program and apss for computers and mobile devices for these formats I would look at creating the books in one or more of the eBook formats.
Google Chrome and FireFox both have their own version of a PDF reader plug-in and they are well known to be less capable than Adobe Reader. It is possible to configure these products to use Adobe Reader.

HT5287 If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?

Or am I missing the bigger picture?

As long as you have a Superdrive or an external burner/drive, burning, watching, installing, etc. from CD or DVD will work just fine. And so will sharing.

HT5287 DVD and CD sharing will not let you play or share DVD movies and audio CD's. Does any one know of a way to get music from a CD on a MacBook Pro wirelessly to an iMac?

I cannot find the eMac install disk, and I haven't been able to get it to start up from my 10.3 CDRm (holding down option or c), though I read something somewhere about these not being able to start up from system folders earlier than those they shipped with. I've dealt with this sort of thing several times before, and it always seemed to work to simply use target disk mode.
It definitely won't start up fromt the 10.5 DVD-R, and I'm pretty sure I tried putting the MBP into TM to use its optical drive as well, but it didn't work. But it's worth trying again, and I appreciate your input greatly.

Import video and audio from a dvd into FCP

Is there an easier way to import video and audio into Final Cut Pro - I am playing it on a DVD player and making a digital tape of it. Then logging and capturing it into FCP.

Hello and welcome to the forum!
Yes, there are a few ways that are faster. Have a look at this thread http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=3465691
You could use software, such as "streamclip", or import by plugging your camera into your capture device and hooking your capture device into your computer and capturing by non-controllable device settings.
Good Luck

Hi,
Firstly, your country is detemined by several factors, including your phone's regional settings, your SIM card and your NokiaAccount settings, if you used this phone whilst abroad then you may need to check that your regional and account settings are up to date since you have arrived in Canada.
For services like Gigs, you should also ensure that the MixRadio app has access to your phone's GPS location as well as the main location being on in the phone settings. To check this, as well as Location being turned on in the phone settings, in MixRadio itself go to Settings>Location>On:
The concern with favourites may also be related to location, if the music from certain artists is available in Canada but not where the service might think you are, availability of content may vary from region to region.
If all settings in both the phone, your Nokia Account and the MixRadio app are correct, we may have to investigate deeper.
It is impossible to comment on your camera without seeing it, you cold have the phone checked by Nokia Care locally, but of course if it was supplied in Europe it will be covered by the European Limited Warranty which is not valid in Canada.

What can be causing inconsistent DVD video and audio distortions...

Does anyone have any idea why the DVD I burn using DVD Studio Pro (from a 90-min FCP QT movie) - whether it’s compressed by DVD Studio Pro, or through Compressor (with bit-rates of 4 for avg., and 7.2 for maximum) - plays with some serious simultaneous video and audio distortions on my brand new DVD player – that don’t show up at all when played on a friend's DVD player.
As a test, I burned a DVD with just the video, and it does NOT play the same distortions on my DVD player. This obviously means the video distortion is related to the audio being there, but, I don’t know why, or how to begin fixing the problem.
Any help would be tremendously appreciated!

Oh yes, indeedy!
Go into the AC3 encode tabs and have a look around. If you never used A.Pack with older versions of DVDSP then none of this will look familiar, but essentially the tabs are exactly the same as the old A.Pack application.
You can set the desired bitrate - for stereo you don't need more than 192Kbps. You can set the dialog normailsation value (for now, type in -31 and press return) and you can set the compression type - just use 'none'.
This should get you a reasonably useable AC3 file for your project, but as you might guess, there is a lot more to it than that! Head over to http:..www,macprovideo.com and see if you can get hold of the tutorials for A.Pack, or find a copy of Martin Sitter's book for DVD Studio Pro (any version). The chapter on A.Pack is well worth reading and possibly justifies the price of the book on its own.
Once you have got the audio encoding sorted out and are using it on a disc, see if the distortion still happens.
Also, can you describe the distortion that you are seeing?

Can I use iMovie to edit and enhance both video and audio of my homemade DVDs?

I have a lot of homemade DVDs converted from old VHS tapes. The video and audio quality need to be edited/enhanced. Can I use my iMovie 11 for this task? If not what are my options? Thanks.

Hi
There are several layers to this Q
• VHS-tapes has a low quiality as is
• converted to sort of .mpe2 to a DVD to be played on standard DVD-player - Quality is futher lost
• converting it back to DV or AIC - and more quality is lost
• edit it in iMovie'08 to 11 - even more quality is lost due to that when going from Event's to Project's - every second line building up the picture is discarded (as non of them - iM'08 to 11 - works woith interlaced SD-video
So if quality is of any interest - I would - and are doing
• Converting from VHS-tapes
- via a CANOPUS ADVC-300 - to digital
- in via FireWire to
- to iMovie HD6 or FinalCut (any version) - asa they all keep 100% of the interlaced SD-quality
- edit and put out on miniDV tape (still 100% preserved) or to a DVD made in iDVD with all that keep as high quality possibly. (No Video-DVD can keep 100% quality - it's due to standard and amount of compressing)
If Quality is of no importance - then
• DVDs needs to be converted to DV or AIC and this is no free standard on any Mac - You need a converting program as
- MPEG StreamClip (free on internet) + BUT it needs the .mpeg2 Component from Apple to work ($20)
- Roxio Toast™ - can also be used to back engineer - BUT this cost's much more - still to me all extras was more than worth it
- Analog way - DVD-player - A/D-box - import via FireWire
