Problem chapters on dvd

I want to burn my dvd using chapter scenes at the beginning , after I make my selection at idvd page I can see my scenes in the preview screen but when the dvd is finish and I play it back on my tv set I dont see the scene selection it just start directly at the beginning of the movie. Can someone help me and let me know how can I fix this.

Have a look at your iDVD main window. Select Map view...the one with the three little boxes. See if you have somehow put your movie into the first box. The first box is for content that you want to play immediately without using a theme. If your movie is there, drag it out.
You will then see that the box says 'Drag content here to automatically play when the disk is inserted.'
Now look at the next box to be sure your movie is there.
Hit the return button.
Reburn your disk.
It should be ok now.
Post back if this does not address your question.

  • Problem with leopard DVD loading in PowerPC G4

    Hi having problems installing Leopard DVD on Mac G4 desk top - 1GHz PowerPC G4 (3,6), 1MB L3 Cache, 768 MB Ram.
    A few of the details:
    1) I have installed Leopard on my Laptop and it is running fine and it is a family pack edition DVD.
    2) I wiped the G4 I am trying to install clean and re-loaded the original system software, then loaded to Tiger to see if that was the issue...When I put in the Leopard DVD it doesn't even show as being in the computer. It doesn't come up on the desk top...it doesn't show in the HD...it doesn't make a sound at all when put in the DVD slot...basically, the computer is not recognizing the DVD. I have tried other cd's and DVD's in the drive....everything is working except the Leopard DVD.
    Any ideas?

    Where did you get the Leopard DVD? Did you buy it or did it come with another Mac?

  • Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod

    Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod
    I am having a problem transfering ripped DVD's from the Itunes Video folder to the actual Ipod. I thought one of the cool points of the Video Ipod was that you could play DVD's on it. I know I needed to use special software to achieve this since I researched it here. I am using Handbrake Lite since regular Handbrake look too daunting for me. I also used Isquint, since it was recommened here. I used both without changing anything on both of those progams other than click the go button. The DVD's will play in Itunes but it won't allow me to drag them to the Ipod. They are in the Video folder in Itunes. What in the wild, wild world of sports am I do'in wrong? I assume it's something stupid because the device is stellar. Hope someone out there can lend us a hand.
    Kind Regards,
    Julias

  • Big problems exporting to DVD

    Hi
    I have a 55 min sequence that I'm trying to export using the DVD settings in compressor. I have tried all the options but keep getting the same problem. Either DVD studio pro tells me the format is incompatible or the movie file is incomplete. I have tried all the options in compressor but keep having problems and I really need to get this project completed.
    The sequence is pretty normal, the same as I have done before without any problems so not sure where I am going wrong. Is there a work around? Perhaps exporting as a QT movie then re-compressing for DVD.
    Any help would be grateful, I've posted on Compressor forum and it was suggested to double check settings.
    Many Thanks
    Adrian.

    Hi David
    Thanks again for replying. I've been using the DVD preset settings of best quality 90min. (Mpeg 2 6.2mbps 2-pass, Dolby digital professional 2.00) Although I have tried the fastest encode preset resulting in the same problem.
    Incidentally, I have used magic bullet filters for the first time on the sequence, would that contribute to the problem?
    Also, if I go down the exporting to Quicktime route and then re-import, do I then use the same DVD preset settings and will there be a drop in quality?
    Thanks, in anticipation
    Adrian

  • MOVED: Problem with SATA DVD/RW

    This topic has been moved to AMD64 nVidia Based board.
    Problem with SATA DVD/RW

    I use the Plextor PX-712SA's with no issues. However...I do not believe the SATA versions require jumpers. Try plugging them in on SATA port 1 or 2, making sure those are enabled in BIOS of course. Make sure all connections are secure. There have been some issues with these particular drives not operating properly, but it has not been an issue with seasoned system builders, so the problems may be with the builder himself. Usually, Plextors are so good, they'll almost burn a paper plate! Try a different medium, maybe another brand of blank CD or DVD.
    You may also want to check Device Manager in Windows, to see if it is listed "This device is working properly"!

  • Im having problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes  I'm getting cut edges in the video , does anyone have any idea ?

    Im having a problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes  I'm getting cut edges/lines  in the video specialy if i have titles it comes up really bad , I took the same video to a friend of mine who have PC and he uses Encore , did the encoding there and it was just fine no problems! BTW I tried using doferent setings in compressor from CBR and VBR I even pushed up the setings to 8 or 9 BR and still no luck !
    does anyone have any idea ?
    Thanks in advence ...

    Let's focus attention on just the Sony. (What model and what resolution are you shooting?)
    For now, I'll assume you're shooting 1080i.
    Take a representaive clip  into a new sequence. Add a title.
    In your sequence, make sure field dominance is set to Upper.
    Set render settings to Pro Res 422.
    After rendering, export QT self contained.
    Import into Compressor (I'm now referring to v3.5).
    Select the 90 minute Best quality DVD preset.
    Open frame controls and turn on (click the gear icon). Set Resize filter to Best.
    Submit burn and check quality on TV.
    Good luck.

  • Shuffle Chapters in DVD Player

    Anyone know how to shuffle chapters using DVD Player? I'm trying to get to an Easter Egg on a specific title and chapter of a DVD. Others say entering a title on the Main Menu works on some home DVD players; unfortunately, doing this in DVD Player is not permitted with this particular DVD.
    I was able to get to the hidden footage by using the "Shuffle" function on an 8 year-old home DVD player. Short of doing some crazy technique like s-video to AVI into my video camera out to my PowerBook G4, I'm not sure how I can otherwise view it.

    And you probably have figured out that you can't shuffle chapters either...

  • Audio problems from burning DVD's from Macbook Pro?

    Hey guys,
    So lately I have been having problems with burning DVD.  I use either iDVD or Roxio Toast Titanium 11 too burn movies to play on my television. After burnign them I notice all of them have audio problems.  It's as if the audio is faint for the dialogue but when background music plays its blaring! I checked my TV and its definitely not my Television because sound plays from both speakers.  I was wondering if any other Macbook users had this problem or users of either of these programs had this problem because it's such a hassle burning movies without really enjoying them.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Problem with copied DVDs--"DAMAGED TS FOLDER" (HELP or I shall go MAD!)

    Hi folks--really, really hope someone can help me. This has got me beat. And I'm by no means sure it's a problem with my computer, but...
    The facts:
    1. I recently acquired a Panasonic DMR-ES20 DVD recorder, primarily to make DVD copies of a number of old and treasured videotapes. These are from broadcast, so copy protection isn't a factor.
    2. I often use my Mac as a TV to watch DVDs and have never had the slightest problem with commercial DVDs.
    3. I am (or was) using Roxio's Popcorn 2 program to make up backup copies of the DVDs I make.
    4. I made about 20 DVDs without problem, and ALL work perfectly on the Imac, and ALL can be copied via Popcorn 2.
    5. Then, SOMETHING CHANGED, I have no idea what--but now, each and every DVD I make with the Panasonic shows up on the Imac as follows:
    "The TS folder appears to be damaged."
    These disks will NOT play on the Imac and cannot be copied with Popcorn 2. They DO play on the Panasonic machine, however.
    6. I have tried varying media, including high-quality Taiyo Yuden disks. That didn't help.
    7. I have reset the recorder to original factory settings. That didn't help.
    8. I have used a disk lens cleaner on the Imac. That didn't help.
    9. I have spoken with Applecare and (God help me) Panasonic. Both pronounced themselves baffled.
    10. As am I. As things stand, I've got a lot of more or less useless equipment. Ideas? Hints? Suggestions?

    The only time I have ever expierianced an issue like this is from doing extensive burning. The cause is from the storage of the cache files and some of the older TS folders even after you trashed them from your machine after you burned.
    The only way I have been able to work around this is
    First Repair Permissions as is submitted by Gulliver.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607640&#607640
    I have also found that by running 3 freeware or shareware programs one right after the other and after the 3rd it will restart your computer all is well when I do it.
    First run Macjanitor.
    http://personalpages.tds.net/~brian_hill/downloads.html
    Next run Cache Out X.

    And last but not least is ONYX.
    take note when you run Cache out X and Onyx be careful to not delete your favorites in your browsers.
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20070
    A note of interest, I have had to do this after I have done a lot of copying to get rid of all the excesive junk that is left behind.
    Give it a try.
    Good Luck Don

  • Problems with burned DVD in iDVD - Works in some players, not in others

    Hi, I'm having a strange problem with a DVD I burned in iDVD.
    I have a disc image that I made in iDVD and then burn the Audio_TS and Video_TS folders to a DVD.
    I burned to a Memorex DVD+R.
    The video pops up fine and plays on my computer after it burns, but if I eject the disc and try to re-insert it, the DVD preview says "Supported disc not found". It did this same thing when I tried it in my Macbook.
    It works fine in my standard DVD player, but I also tried it on my Playstation 3 and it did not play.
    A few things I am going to try is buring directly from iDVD instead of first making a disc image, and also using DVD-R, although I heard that DVD+R is generally a better format to use.
    Someone also told me that DVD+R does not play on macs, which I question.
    If anyone has any other suggestions or might know why this is happening, I would greatly appreciate it. It is an important project that needs to be done soon! Thanks.

    The disc image option is within iDVD: File > Save as Disc Image. If you switch to DVD map map mode you can drag your movie to a spot prior to the menu so that the movie plays automatically when put into the player. Under advanced, you can set the movie to loop.... otherwise I think it goes back to the menu when done playing. BTW, all DVDs MUST have a menu it is part of the DVD specification. It is just a matter of whether you see the menu. As far as exporting your project back to tape... you won't loose any quality and your audio, along with your video and any editing to each will export back to tape. However, a MP3 is not generally considered a higher quality file (although perhaps the recorder was closer to the source?). As a matter of fact, if you are editing your audio I strongly suggest using a file sampled at at least 16-bit/48Khz, AIFF (or WAV or anything lossless).
    In regards to the slow burn speed: I agree that a slower burn speed is better than the fastest burn speed (due to error corrections ect). However, I would choose a middle of the road burn speed. If my choices are 4x, 6x, or 8x, I would choose 6x. If it is 2x, 4x, 6x, I would choose 4x. And yes, quality of blank media can effect the playback of a disc that played once just fine.

  • Problems mastering to dvd and missing codecs

    I am having problems mastering to dvd with the mpeg 2 dvd option and also missing codecs,anyone can help me? new to cs5 so probably something I am doing wrong when going to export then selecting option mpeg2 dvd and select drive for output,it burns and then wont play back even though its burned okay...using tons dvds and wasting them,and getting rather frustrated...no idea how to use encore yet as in menus and stuff as used the old version of elements and 1.5 before upgrading ...so help me please

    Assuming that you have the full-paid version, and not the trial, look to see if Transfer Activation is grayed out?
    Try Importing a simple MP3 Audio file.
    It sounds like you have experienced the "revert to trial" of the full-paid version, so that you now have zero MPEG-2 support.
    The steps to correct this are:
    1.) Deactivate (probably grayed out)
    2.) Uninstall
    3.) Run Adobe Clean Script CS5 several times, rebooting between each run.
    4.) Install CS5
    5.) Instantly update, before launching
    6.) Activate
    7.) Launch and test.
    Good luck,

  • Problem Burning finished DVD

    Hi,
    I'm having problems burning a finished project to DVD, I have traced the problem threw going back threw saved versions and thing the problem is the DVD menu tabs, I tried making the tabs bigger and that maybe the problem, can anyone think why that would be..
    Thanks

  • Problem with burning DVD's

    I have Roxio Toast Titanium and I have a problem with burning DVD's. When I put a blank DVD-R in my superdrive, select the files and go to burn; the advanced recording options will not let me deselect the check in "close disk". It is shaded. But when I use a CD-RW I can and so far the Roxio help has...well has not been help at all. I mean why would I spend the money to buy a software package that lets me do the same thing as the basic OS-X disk utility would let me do? Drag a file, burn it and close the disk from any future use....
    Sorry if this does not belong here, I did not see a area for general software questions way back in the main forum area not one here.

    Donald,
    Hi and thank you.
    To give you more details on what I am trying to do; I am trying to burn in Mac & PC format. I am mainly trying to back up all my assorted college files (I am a college student), these files are lecture notes in Word with embedded audio recordings, standard Word documents such as essays, etc., spreadsheets, PDF documents, etc. The files I am attempting to burn should not be larger than 4.7 gb and Roxio has not given me a warning that it would be.
    I am just frustrated that when I put in a DVD-R or -RW I only have one option, and that is to close out the disk when it is finished burning it. I have also gone to the recording tab, on the menue bar, to uncheck the "close disk" box after I put in a blank DVD and before I select files to burn. The option is shadded preventing me from even trying, which is not the case for a CD!
    Thank you!

    I have problem with recently with playing DVDs on my iMac. the problem only with DVDs, please anybody can help me solve this problem?

    Get a lens cleaner disc. One with brushes and try that. CDs and DVDs use different lenses, so since CDs load and play, I strongly suspect a dirty lens.
