Problem with split screen quicktime movie to iDVD

hey folks, i've just spent two 6-hour renderings for naught and have the following problem:
QT Pro 6.5.2
iDVD 5
OS 10.3.9
I pulled together a Quicktime movie consisting of talking head interview, then split screen (two clips simultaneously), back to talking head, then split screen again, etc etc.
the first time i rendered the composite Quicktime movie to iDVD, my split screen background was a sickly lime green color. blech
so, i added a black slide in TIFF format ONLY to the split screen video portions. played around with the Layers property until my split screen video clips were in front of the black background. recut and pasted my full Quicktime movie again.
However, upon my second iDVD rendering, a funny thing ocurred. Now, when the DVD gets to a split screen portion, the VERY LAST FRAME OF THE PREVIOUS TALKING HEAD CLIP freezes, and appears in the background of my split screen clips.
What gives?
I plan to do some testing, but sure would like to shortcut this problem, it's eating away at my weekend and i need to get this project done.
thanks for any insight you can give
mike

    I'd take it into my local APple store and have them look at it. There may be something wrong inside your device.

  • Help Please ::: Quicktime .mov into iDVD 5 playback or encode problem issue

    Originally Imageready files burned into Quicktime. Importing Quicktime .mov into iDVD results in project which looked great in preview, but after burning images were elongated, flattened. I am stumped, especially given preview results would indicate no such problems but unsure where to analyze on the DVD burn end to check. Any tips on what/where to check? Have tried re-importing original ImageReady (Photoshop) files into new Quicktime .mov (original project was done on OS 9 fyi). But no change in results.. any help greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for the feedback. I wasn't privy to the process that converted these files originally but suspected the theory on compression/codec initially used.. may re-convert. Also will try Disk Imaging... seems that this is not an uncommon problem in the iDVD 5 world...

  • Problem with SAP Screen

    Not sure if this is the correct forum.
    Okies, a user of mine has a problem with her SAP screens. It seems that she can't view the full screen of CJ20N She has to drag the window bigger to be able to see the content. She uses this window in a split monitor view, i.e. some of the applications are displaying on the laptop window while other applications display on the monitor.
    Details of her SAPGUI:
    Release 640 Final
    File version: 6404.4.16.1015
    Build: 774474
    Patch Level : 16
    Do note that her primary monitor (notebook) is always set to 1280x800 and the secondary monitor is set to 1024x768. Anyone encounter this problem before?

    Hi,
    This is problem with windows screen resolution. Better to use, maximum supported window size and make sure to use same size for both the screens.

  • Problem with the screen

    Hello everyone,
    I've recently updated the firmware for my MacBook Pro (Early-2011) along with the iTunes update. Since yesterday, I've been experiencing problem with the screen. When the screen dims, it doesn't come back to normal when I move the cursor or type on the keyboard. Instead, it takes about 25 seconds to come back to normal.
    Same thing when the screen goes to sleep, it doesn't come back to normal instantaneously when the cursor is moved!
    This problem only started to occur after the latest firmware update. What is the problem and is there is solution?

    Sam,
    The AppleCare warranty does not cover accidental damage, including dropping. You can try resetting, or restoring, but I think you'll need to try a 3rd party iPod repair service (www.ipodresq.com, for example).

    - choose an specific infoobjekt
    - right mousebutton and click "specific dataprovider settings"

  • HT204370 I downloaded an HD movie onto my laptop from i-tunes.  It plays fine on my laptop, but when I plug in my HD projector, the movie quits.  When I unplug the projector, the movie starts again. I have never had a problem with projecting an itunes mov

    I downloaded an HD movie onto my laptop from i-tunes.  It plays fine on my laptop, but when I plug in my HD projector, the movie quits.  When I unplug the projector, the movie starts again. I have never had a problem with projecting an itunes movie before this. Someone told me that i-tunes changed something so that movies can no longer be projected.  We have a home theatre and have watched movies this way quite regularly, so it would be a drag if Apple will prevent us from doing this in the future. 

    I don’t know about projection, but I’m unable to watch HD content in iTunes because my Apple 30-inch Cinema Display is not HDCP-compliant (which is part of an HD copy-protection scheme).
    The other movies you’ve projected, were they HD as well? If not, it could be the same problem: your projector is not HDCP-compliant.

  • Problem with sub-screen actions on Cancel button

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with sub-screen.
    I created a subscreen (screen sequence in MM01/MM02/MM03). When users leave this screen, I call POPUP_TO_CONFIRM to ask if they want to save the data.
    1) My goal is: when they choose Cancel, no actions are performed and users will see the current screen. However, I cannot use command: SET SCREEN 0 or LEAVE TO SCREEN 0 because the system gives an error message:
    *SET SCREEN not allowed in subscreens*.
    2) How can we determine when the user leaves the screen? which value of SY-UCOMM will be used to check this?
    Thanks in advance.

    for dis SET SCREEN is not required.
    Consider d code given below as n eg:
    CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'
        EXPORTING
          titlebar              = 'SAVE'
          text_question         = 'SOME _QUS'
          text_button_1         = 'YES'
          text_button_2         = 'NO'
          default_button        = '2'
          display_cancel_button = ' '
        IMPORTING
          answer                = l_ans
        EXCEPTIONS
          text_not_found        = 1
          OTHERS                = 2.
      IF sy-subrc <> 0.
        MESSAGE e066.
      ENDIF.
    IF l_ans EQ '1'.    " when yes is pressed
       MODIFY db.
       commit work.
       leave program.
    ELSEIF l_ans EQ '2'.  "when no is pressed
        leave program.
    ELSE.     " when cancel is pressed
    ENDIF.
    In above module when Yes is pressed it saves data den leave prog.
    As no action is specified for cancel button it will remain on that screen only from which popup is called, in this way ur problem can be solved.
    Reward properly.

  • Problem with matrix/screen in Qosmio F55-Q502

    Hello
    For a few weeks I have strange problem with matrix/screen in my laptop.
    The matrix flickers very often - no matter if power cable is plugged or not.
    The screen is full bright and suddenly it starts to blink - it is getting darker, than lighter, usually for few/dozen seconds. It does it when nobody touches it or when I work on it.
    It very annoying and making eyes tired - it does it very quickly and there are few levels of screen brightness.
    Moreover sometimes the screen turns off - You can see what is on desktop but the screen is very very dark (but not blank or completely switched off). It happens without any reason - sometimes just in the middle of working, sometime for example when I touch (not pull) the power cable between laptop and power supply.
    Then, the only way to get back to normal brightness of screen id to close the lid just for half a second and open it
    - matrix lights then normally, but can "turns off" moment later and I must do it once again - sometimes even few times..
    After "action" with lid screens seems like nothing ever happen..
    Does anyone have idea what is the cause of such behaviour or how to diagnose it in details?
    Or maybe solve this problem?
    Best regards
    300m

    Sounds like the Backlight or Inverter is failing or there is a loose connection.
    Is the unit under warranty? Send it to an ASP for repair.
    You should avoid repairing it yourself, the backlight is very high voltage!

  • Problems with share screen in lion

    Hello
    I have had problems with share screen since i have installed Lion. I can't share screen even inside the Lan, between Macs and between Mac and Iphone. It's like Lion would had some port block in any hidden place. Anyone knows something about it?

    FINALLY! Got Screen Sharing to work! REPLACE ARDAgent (v3.5.1) with the older v3.4
    Instructions by tchaga:
    1. Download ARD 3.4 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1350 RemoteDesktopClient.dmg), mount it, look inside the package/Contents, copy the Archive.pax.gz to the desktop
    2. Expand the Archive.pax.gz and navigate inside the resulting folder Archive to /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement
    3. Navigate to the same folder at the root of your HD (i.e. HD/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement)
    4. Copy ARDAgent from your HD/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement to the Desktop and then delete it from the HD/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement folder (you need admin password).
    5. Copy ARDAgent from Archive/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement to HD/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement (you need admin password again).
    6. Restart

  • I have an IMac running the latest level of Lion.  Since installing Lion and also being forced to replace the hard drive I have a problem with the screen intermittently go all white.  Happens about 8 to 12 times a day.  I am using Wild Blue as my ISP.

    I am looking for anyone in the west Tennessee area using Wild Blue along with Apple IMac who is having a problem with their screen going complelely white every so often.  Have had the maching into the Apple store in Memphis.  They could not get it to fail.  Help

    TutorDaddy, if this Mac is still covered by the initial warranty or under AppleCare, take it in and have it looked at. As the old label used to say, there truly are "no user serviceable parts inside." Kernel panics very usually indicate failing hardware.
    I have an older iBook G4 that started developing kernel panics and like you, despite reinstalling the OS from a freshly formatted volume, they kept continuing. I looked at the crash log and saw that in each instance of panic, the last bit of code to be accessed had something to do with AirPort. Knowing that the AirPort software was at then current levels, I surmised the problem to be a bad AirPort networking card which, on that particular model of the iBook, was a very small module attached directly to the logic board. Since the computer was out of AppleCare, I broke the machine down myself (I didn't realize that there could be so many barely visible screws in one machine) and removed the offending piece of hardware. My iBook lives but without WiFi, it now sits as a more or less desktop machine needing an ethernet connection to stay connected to a network.
    I do not suggest you break into your iMac. First of all, I'm guessing one would need to be able to pull off the glass and have the necessary glue to reattach it, which is not really available to us consumers. If you're feeling adventurous enough to read the crash logs from each panic, you might be able to surmise the hardware component (or badly written application or library; it can happen) that's causing the panic. If it's a software issue, remove the offending software app and see if the panics return. If it's a hardware issue, it's best to let a competent service tech qualified on Apple hardware to handle it.
    [edited to add:]
    After browsing through related problems in the discussions, I saw this link to a third-party web site being handed out. Perhaps you'll find it useful: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html

    is this a rental from the Apple TV or one you have in iTunes. If from the Apple TV try restarting the Apple TV, if from iTunes, try de/re-authorising your account.
