Pumping and jerking artifact in the DVD encoded video
I don't why understand I get this issue. After having done a DVD encoded file of my movie in Compressor, I get an artifact effect on a certain kind of scene (2 actors dialoging with a country background). I get the background (lawn grass, tree leaves) "pumping", like it was jerking...This unwanted effect appears only on these 2 scenes of the film (the same scene repeated 2 times). And it is random, that is every time I make the DVD file I get the effect in a different point of the scene. All the rest of the film is fine.
Any idea on which can be the reason of this issue?
P.S. You can view the effect in this clip (the resolution is poor respect to the original, but you can view the artifact effect, maybe watching it in full screen)

I tried to change "Field order" to Progressive (it was "Same as source"), but nothing changed:

I have a DVD I recorded from my tv. I am trying to make copies and when I insert the DVD, I get a message saying the DVD is blank, which it is not. My questions are: Why does my computer think it's blank? And how can I copy the DVD providing my computer recognizes there is content on it?
Thanks, SheilaTV video typically is copyrighted content. We'd be breaking several rules trying to help you. Good luck!

DVD encoded video and audio progressively get out of sync
Hi Compressor professionados,
I've been trying to finalise a DVD I’m creating but keep having the same show-stopping problem where I just can't get the timing of the audio and video right after encoding it to MPEG-2/ac3 for DVD Studio Pro. When I lay it into the track in DVDSPro it plays fine at the start of the track but as the clip gets longer the audio and video gets further and further out of sync, by a few seconds (eg. for over 1 hour length footage).
I've seen similar posts online about timing issues with Compressor but nothing I saw has hit the nail on the head for me. I also posted my problem on Creative Cow but didn't get the help I needed to fix my problem.
Here's the specs:
FCPro X 10.1.4
Video project: 1080i (@ 25i)
Audio 44.1 kHz
Render: Apple ProRes 422
Length: 01:13:05:02
Compressor 4.1.3
MPEG-2 Setting (only what I think is important... or I don't know)
Format: Elementary Stream
Stream Usage: DVD
Retiming: Set duration to: 100% (shows 01:13:05:02)
Video Frame Rate: Auto (25fps)
Field Order: Same as Source
GOP: greyed out at 12
ac3:
Sample rate: 48kHz (the only choice)
Data rate: 224 kbps
DVD Studio Pro 4.2.1
PAL DVD-9 project
From FCP I send my project to Compressor and when I drop both a DVD Audio and Video codec onto it they both show as Retiming 100% (and the length looks the same) but the results are still unsynchronised at the end of the clip when they are placed into the Track in DVDSPro. I've also tried changing different settings, like MPEG-2 Retiming duration to "So source frames play at 25 fps", but I'm still having troubles.
At one point I managed to get the A/V timing right for my track and I then ran what I thought was the same settings for all my other tracks in the DVD but they ended up with a similar outa-sync problem so I deleted everything to try again and realised I'd deleted my good files. And I just can't seem to replicate it again. I’m not sure if it was an accidental mistake that worked or I hit on the right settings. Either way, it shouldn’t be this hard to get it right, for heaven's sake!!!
Also, strangely, when I open the MPEG-2 file in QuickTime Player (10.4) it shows 01:10:30 long but if I open the same file in QuickTime Pro 7 it shows as the correct 1:13:05. And DVD Studio Pro shows 01:13:05:02 for both the audio & video assets but their sync is still out at the end.
This problem stopped me from producing the DVD last Christmas and I tried to pick it up again to give it to the family for this Christmas but ended up having to bail yet again - not impressed!!!
I'm hoping it's a simple solution of getting the settings right but it may also be a bug! Apparently, my bro-in-law has had similar problems and has ditched the DVD route altogether. I already have all of my menus etc. set up and I'd hate to have to ditch all that hard work.
Thanks in anticipation,
BrettThanks so much Russ & Tom!
It was as easy as changing the sample rate in the FCP project from 44.1 to 48 and sending it to Compressor again. I think it was set to 44.1 because I had the project set to automatically assign the parameters from the first video dropped into it. I haven't checked yet but the audio from my camera is likely 44.1.
It would be nice if Compressor produced a warning message when you set the codec up for DVD audio that the original is set to a different sample rate & may cause timing problems when resampled to 48kHz.
Anyway, again THANKS lads for solving what has been a year long problem for me and now I can complete my Christmas project, albeit late!

I have a laptop an hp dv6700 and can't get the DVD/CD to show in device manager. And more
Please check this link ( http://www.fixya.com/support/r10473895-cd_dvd_drive_not_detecting_working) and answer this question for me. I don't know what this means of the explanation as in UpperFilter or LowerFilter. The rest I have done.
Now look for UpperFilter or LowerFilter or both in the right pane.
Right click on UpperFilter and/or LowerFilter and delete them.
Press F5 key once and close the registry editor.Okay, let's check the following:
>> Do you see the DVD drive listed in "Computer" explorer? double click on it to open.
>> Do you see the DVD drive listed in the device manager??
(Click Start and type "device" in the search field, then select Device Manager >> check for CD/DVD drive listing.)
>> Is the DVD drive listed in the BIOS?
(Restart Your PC and start tapping F10 key, once you are in setup screen go to boot options, check for the listed devices)

How do I find the chapters within a Homemade DVD when it has been converted via Handbrake to MP4 and editing ready on Quicktime Player. I want to get chapters only out of the movie that has 23 chapters so I can edit one chapter at a time. . Found it once when it said divide into chapters (or something like this) , but can't find it again. Thanks for the help.
How do I find the chapters within a Homemade DVD when it has been converted via Handbrake to MP4 and editing ready on Quicktime Player.
If you included the chapter information originally contained on the DVD as part of your HandBrake conversion, then it will be located in the "Text" track of your converted file. Did you actually check the "Chapters" tab in HandBrake before converting the DVD content to ensure the chapters were to be included in final export? I.e., not all HandBrake presets automatically include a "Text" (Chapter) track. -
someone pls help me
Well there is Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck witch includes step by step instructions to run disk repair without the install disk.
But before doing that, it's a good idea to backup. You may want to troubleshooting your superdrive / disk before hand. if I disk repair fails you may need the disk working to re-install the OS.
Dose the computer read any DVDs? if no, you may want to use Troubleshooting the slot load optical disc drive. -
Colored band on the right side of the DVD encoder
When a project renders in Media encoder to get a file mpeg DVD 25p, in some places a vertical band appears on the right side, sometimes blue, sometimes red or white.

Major green artifacts all over MPG2 encoded video!
Please help!
I am trying put four 7 min. movies on four separate DVDs. When I encode my QT files, my MPG2 files are covered with giant green artifacts - so much so that in some places almost half the screen in green!
I have tried working directly from my timeline into Compressor and working from an exported QT movie into Compressor. I tried both 'fast' and 'best quality' DVD MPG2 settings.
What can I do???Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I took my files to another system, re-compressed all frames using Animation, and had no problems. I think my prefs or RAM may be bad on my computer (bleh), but at least had another station to work with.
FYI - I also downloaded BitVice, an alternate encoder, and the test worked great. I would have bought that package, had I not been able to find an alternate FCP station.

A review and some info on the new iPod Video
Folks,
I just got mine yesterday (60gb). It is fantastic. I have nothing bad to say. I loaded all my music, pictures and calendar data. I bought a TV show, downloaded a free Video Podcast, bought a Pixar short video, and a Music video. The quality of the picture is nothing short of amazing. Everyone who sees it is very impressed. I have a whole row of folks where I work that have one iPod or another, and they all needed their drool-cups changed while looking at this new addition from Apple. Well done Steve!Thanx RJ,
I have noticed the same thing. No different from any other discussion group. But you take the bad with the good, right? Anyway, I DO love my new 5G, and I know there are so many of us out there that are really curious about the new iPod. Isn't that what any company wants? Buzz about their new product? Good buzz about the 5G is well deserved, regardless of any short comings. I have been having SOME difficulty understanding what is appropriate and NOT appropriate to say in this discussion group. I got slammed once already, and am not sure why. So, I hope my track-record gets better. -
Problem with ipod, lagging, freezing, and also skipping to the end on video
i've had my ipod for about 4 months now and i can't help to realize my fairly new ipod is slowing down on loading.
when i first started, a white screen comes up and in the middle, it has an ipod and reads, "www.apple.com/support"
main reason why i came to this place.
thats fine to me, it works when i restart it.
then, i press a few buttons, Music -> Artist -> and whatever i want to listen to, but you know how the pages are suppose to pass? my ipod suddenly lags up(slows down) and at the top it shows that im going to those pages, but the screen won't change, then after 30 seconds, the page is loaded.
when i play a song, it tends to freeze a couple times and play again, i don't think this is such a big problem, because it only freezes for about 1 to 10 seconds at most.
also since i have an ipod video, i like to put some funny videos on it. the video when i play it, it is frozen for a couple seconds and play, but plays all the way at the end, meaning that the video has been skipped to the end of it.
these are my problems, anyone who has any idea what so ever what is wrong with my ipod then please reply.
note!!
i have tried restoring over and over again.
i have dropped my ipod a few times, but not that far from the ground.Did you Reset it or Restore it in iTunes? And if the latter, it successfully completed the Restore?

To create a dvd and include hyperlinks within the presentations to further info
I want to create a DVD with a a main menu that feeds into various slideshows and pdf documents. But I want to include hyperlinks within these slideshows and pdf's that will bring you to further information (Sub Folders lets say!) that will not be contained within the initial slideshows and pdf documents but held somewhere on the dvd. How do I create these hyperlinks or can this be done?
Hi
I doubt that very much.
a Video-DVD as You make with iDVD is to be played on any standard DVD-Player and they can not address internet or playback .pdf.
• You can store Data-material on a Video-DVD but need a computer to use it
• You can convert a .pdf file into a movie to be viewed as any other movie (I never get good enough quality in this conversion though)
and
You can make the DVD into a Data-DVD on Desktop/Finder and convert Your movies into QuickTime .mov (or other) to be played on PC/Mac - but this will not play in any DVD-player.
Have You ever seen a DVD that work as You describe Your wish ? I never.

Reformatted my T40, and now the DVD reader doesn't work.
I have recently reformatted my T40, had some problems with viruses, but it is alright now.
Only then, do I realize that my DVD reader does not read. I tried a regular CD and it worked, not the DVD though.
There was nothing wrong with the DVD player, prior to reformatting. So, could it be something I did when reformatting?
Please help. Thank you.If you re-loaded the software from the IBM recovery CDs, you should have the decoder (DVD player) software installed. If you used a microsoft OS CD, it doesn't come with the player.

Speeding up DVD encoding time in Compressor 4?
Hello there, I wonder if anyone can help - I am transferring some camcorder tapes to DVD on my 2010 Mac Pro. My hardware captures in many formats but not mpeg 2. As this is the encoding used for DVDs I presumed Compressor would be quicker to convert mpeg2 files to DVD than say mp4's (?). So I bought an mpeg 2 capture device specially. I then crop, trim the mpeg 2 files in Compressor and convert to DVD but it still takes ages? Is it because I have added edits and crops that it has to be re-encode to a completely new mpeg 2 file or is that just what compressor does to mpeg 2 files anyway? I seem to remember Toast converting an mpeg 2 file to DVD really quickly in the past when there was no editing or changes.
So in summary does anyone know if there is no advantage using mpeg 2 files when editing and converting to DVD in compressor, if not what format would be best? I presume uncompressed DV files might be better.
Any help much appreciated!

Okay thanks for the reply, that is actually a pretty good way to explain i! Am I right that if there was no edits, a dvd would encode quicker using an mpeg 2 file as source?
Don't know, never have used this workflow. Maybe someone else can answer.
I presume I used an mpeg 2 file and just cropped the last 2 minutes off the end it would again need to be re-encoded?
Yes, AFAIK. Make any change and my understanding is that the mpeg GOP (Group Of Pictures) will need to be rebuilt for the file.
My other capture device captures in mp4, so guess I will just import it direct into compressor and do any edits there, as no advantage using mpeg 2 capture.
Using compressor to trim the clips is, I guess, OK. mp4 is a much newer codec the mpeg2 so may be a better solution for your workflow. If I had the option of capturing in mpeg 2 or mp4, I'd choose mp4.
But keep checking back as someone who has more experience with may be able to give better advice.
When I wanted to move years of home DV tapes to DVD, I bought a set top DVD Recorder from Panasonic and just hooked up the camera and went directly to the DVD, pausing the recording to edit out the stuff I didn't want.
Something like this:
