Putting Progressive video onto SD dvd

Hello everyone.
I am currently putting together a compilation of work for my brother and some of his projects were done with progressive video. So, when I export these videos, should I let FCP add the interlacing (though changing my sequence settings) or should I leave it to DVD SP (I let DVDSP do my MPEG encoding)? Does it matter which program handles this?
Thanks all

So, when I export these videos, should I let FCP add the interlacing (though changing my sequence settings) or should I leave it to DVD SP (I let DVDSP do my MPEG encoding)? Does it matter which program handles this?
If the progressive material in question is 23.98 fps - and you want/need to maintain that - then you can, without altering sequence settings in FCP, use Compressor to encode the video and produce a 23.98 fps MPEG-2 file.
Encoding a 23.98 fps file with DVDSP, however, will not produce a 23.98 MPEG-2 file - DVDSP's internal encoder only makes 29.97 (interlaced) .m2v files.

  • Steps to putting a video onto the ipod

    Can someone please tell me step by step on how to put a video onto an ipod and include every detail please?

    well, if you buy a video from itunes and have your ipod on automatic update, it should automatically go into your ipod once you plug it in.
    if you plan to put a dvd you have into the ipod, then here is a more detailed guide about encoding etc.

  • How do I put an iMovie onto a DVD?

    How do I put an iMovie onto a DVD to share with others?  Mac OS x Lion operating system. iMovie ... not 2011!

    Hi
    Do not use - Share to iDVD - if You want any kind of Good DVD as this gives poor result BUT
    • Share to Media Browser - and as Large - Not HD or other resolution as this too costs in quality.
    • in iDVD im port it from Media button (down right) / Movies
    Use good brand DVDs - I do
    • use Verbatim
    • DVD-R (as they work on more and even older DVD-players
    • burn speed set down to x2 - x4
    By using
    • iMovie HD6 or
    • FinalCut
    You get an even better resulting DVD

  • How to transfer and edit iphone videos onto a dvd

    I have lots of videos on my iphone, however I do not know how to put these videos on a dvd, they are just in my itunes and i'm not sure what else I can do with them.  I tried using windows movie maker, but it does not support .mov files. I downloaded a program to convert the files to .avi, i think is what it was, but it was taking foreverr for each video. Is there a way, or a program to use .mov files to edit and burn multiple videos to a dvd?

    Hi.
    So I assume that you run Windows ? I am not that familiar with Windows, but I have a suggestion for you;
    Try download Handbrake(it's free). I believe it's for both Mac and Windows. From here you can choose most filetypes and have them convert into all sorts of types.
    Wish you luck.

    well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize.  Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

  • How do I burn a video onto a dvd out of imovie 11?

    How do I burn a video onto a dvd out of imovie 11?
    Also the program churns and churns, till I'm able to do something else. Why so slow? Is there any render button?

    Here is a step by step on how to create a DVD from iMovie 10 using iDVD 7.1.2. If you do not have iDVD, you can probably substitute Toast (or one of the programs Pieter mentioned) everywhere I used iDVD (I don't have Toast so can't verify this).
    1. Create a project in iMovie 10.0.1
    2. Go to File>Share>File... and for Size choose Large 540P (960 x 540) and click Next
    3. Choose a location on the hard drive to save the file to.
    4. Wait for the blue circle activity indicator to finish.
    5. In Finder, verify that iMovie created an MP4 file in the location specified in step 3.
    6. Open iDVD and click "Create New Project."
    7. Give the project a name and save it to your hard drive.
    8. Drag the file you created earlier from the Finder into your iDVD project window.
         (or go to File>Import>Video... and choose your video there)
    9. Make any adjustments to drop zones, etc.
    10. Click the burn button.
    11. Insert a DVD and let it do its thing.
    This produces a working DVD for me.
    Here are my software specs:
    OS X 10.9 Mavericks
    iMovie 10.0.1
    iDVD 7.1.2

  • Help with putting 2 seperate videos onto 1 Dvd

    I have been looking around for a tutorial to put 2 separate video on 1 Dvd using Premier then exporting not only the single sequence or videos to Encore but i want to export them as 2 separate videos that can be triggered separately in encore by the click of their names on a premade menu. So i want Premier to basically encode these 2 videos separately under the 4.7 gig. amount and be able to manipulate(set menu items to trigger the movies) them in encore.

    Make your sequences, export out as DV AVI files, bring them into Encore and author as usual.

  • Putting iphoto slideshow onto a DVD

    I saved my iphoto slideshow to Quick Time Player, but when I try to send it to imovie I get the message "imovie has not been setup". Is there another way to put a iphoto slideshow onto a DVD without having to do the whole thing over on imovie?
    Gordon

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium, 640 x 480.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • How do I get 30GB of video onto a DVD?

    I recently had an event filmed on an HD video camera. It is about 6 hours of footage total. I cut it down to about 4 hours in iMovie and exported it using QuickTime H.264. The output file is 30GB. What steps would I take to get this burned onto a DVD to share with friends and family?
    The footage was captured at an engagement party and as such, I can't really reduce it lower than 4 hours. What options do I have?

    • in the list of Projects, ctrl-click on your Project
    • choose 'duplicate'
    • erase in #1 the second half
    • erase in #2 the first half
    burn to two DVDs, part #1 and part #2
    iDVD supports a max. length of 120min content.
    iDVD supports double-layer DVDs (=240min), but some DVD-standalone players don't 'like' such disks.
    keep in mind: in theory, there's no min. bitrate on DVDs, so, with other tools, you could squeeze 10h onto a 4.7GBs DVD-r .... but a too-high compressed DVD is no fun to watch, too much artifacts.
    and, who's watching 4h at a single piece?
    I'm pretty sure, a 20min best-of, short clips, good music, lots of stills, master-piece comes better across than a 'real time documentation' ...
    and Welcome, Shaq Bee, to the  boards ...

  • Burning videos onto a DVD

    I bought the first season of the TV show LOST assuming I could burn it onto a DVD. I have a DVD burner and blank DVD's but I can't figure out how to burn the shows. Does itunes allow that?

    Gentlemen, Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    From the Apple Knowledge Base:
    Videos purchased from the iTunes Music Store have FairPlay digital rights management embedded in the files and are in a format that can be readily synced to a Fifth Generation iPod. Just like with music you purchase from the iTunes Music Store, you own the videos you purchase. You can authorize up to five computers to play purchased videos, and you can sync the video to as many iPods as you like. iPod can contain purchased content from up to five accounts; iTunes will not allow you to add data from a sixth account to iPod.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301461
    What this means in relation to your questions is that you can
    b and should
    back up the videos you've purchased from iTMS.
    One method of doing so is to burn the files to a DVD as a Data disc. But you will only be able to view them on an iPod or an authorized computer.
    You cannot burn them to a DVD for playing on your home entertainment set-up, though ... unless that set-up includes an authorized computer. You would not probably want to do so anyways since the videos have a resolution of only 320 x 240 pixels and watching them on a full size screen (or medium size screen for that matter) would not be the optimum viewing experience.

  • Putting QT Files onto a DVD?

    I have 4.7 gig, 120 minute DVDs, and need to compress 1 hour and 40 minutes of footage (I want to put the footage on my DVD as a QT file). Is MPEG4 the best way? If so, what settings do you recommend?

    I am off-loading some editing work to another editor. I have about 10 hours of documentary footage and want to give the editor QT files on DVD, rather than the original tapes. He is using Premier and doesn't, I don't think, have QT7. One suggestion was to create data DVDs, i.e. just drop the QT files right onto a DVD. Is the best thing to make sure the sequences I export are under 120 minutes and 4.7 gigs? Thanks.

  • Need help getting ipod/phone videos onto a DVD that will play in my dvd player

    I have so many videos on my old ipod and my two iphones. I need to get them onto a DVD that will play in my dvd player because they are all the videos I have of my kids when they were babies(bad I know!) So I bought iLife and have iDVD and a macbook pro laptop. Would anyone be willing to write step by step what i need to do to get them onto a DVD as I am very new to all the technology these days. Thank you so much in advance

    First you need to get them onto your Mac.  Use image capture and download them to a folder on the Desktop.  Next, you need a video DVD authoring program.  IMO iDVD is the best.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Softwareor eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the download movie files into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.  Some themes will only allow 6 items per menu, including sub menus, others up to 10 I believe.  Sub menus can always be added to add more movies to the project. This is an example of a project with multiple slideshows/movies and menus:
    IMPORTANT:  iDVD is not concerned with the size of the media files in regards to what the iDVD disk can hold.  All that's important is the total playing time of all of the movie files including the menus.  A single layer DVD disc can hold up to 120 minutes of playing time.  A double layered disk 240 minutes.  IMO it's best to go with multiple single layered disks.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.

  • What adapter/converter do I need to put GoPro videos onto iPad

    What adapter/converter do I need to put GoPro videos from my iMac to my iPad?

    What file type are the videos? If you have converted them to GoPro video format, iMovie should be able to convert the video to a format that con be used by the iPad.
    H.264 videos output by the camera may be able to be used by the iPad by directly importing them from the camera to the iPad with Apple's Camera Connection Kit.

  • How can I burn all of my iPhoto videos onto a DVD?

    I record many many live events with my iPhone! I of course back them up onto my Macbook Air's iPhoto, which is also backed up onto an external hard drive. I was wondering how I can just locate all of the video files in my library, put those onto a flash drive or something, take it somewhere, and burn them all onto a video DVD disk that is playable. I'm not worried about the quality of it if I play it on a big screen...I just want to peace of mind knowing that I have it. Of course I understand that It is going to take way more than just one DVD....please help or offer advice!!

    You can find all the videos in your Library with
    File -> New Smart Album
    Photo -> is -> Movie
    Then export them:
    File -> Export - in the export dialogue set the Kind to Original
    to a folder on the desktop.
    Do you want to use this DVD in a domestic DVD player? If so, then the disk will have to be 'authored' to make it the correct form for that. If you have iDVD then that's the app you use. However, iDVD is no longer developed or distributed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk.
    Other options:
    Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
    Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
    But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate

  • Trying to put two video onto 1 disc, change encoder setting problems

    Video tape two differ events, trying to put them on same disc. First project in imovie on my MacBook Pro. was short (1min. 27sec.) the

    Update: I just made sure that the AP's go through the main router (AEBS) and do not talk to each other directly (which is what they were trying to). I managed to restrict access to them so that only that AEBS (and the other computers through the AEBS, not directly) talks to them. After this everything was smooth sailing.
