SD DVD - eeeek please help

Hi there,
Rather frantically trying to gt this sorted as a deadline looms tomorrow. I have burned a DVD through DVDSP and all the settings were set to SD before I started. I converted my files through compressor to MPEG2 and AIFF and imported them.
On the log I noticed it said something about HD, and when I click on build it says 'HD DVD_TS' so i've obviously made a HD DVD. However, even starting from scratch I set the preferences to SD but still when I import just one file and click on build up comes the 'HD DVD_TS' - is there something else I have to click on to change it to SD from the beginning?
Any help much appreciated as I'm supposed to have this ready for tomorrow.
Many thanks.

I've now made a new file in build for the files to go to rather than the HD DVD_TS folder, and also clicking on the DVD icon in 'Outline' making sure the 'SD' box is checked.
Now when it burns the DVD, I get this in the log...
'Note: The file ‘CHRISOLGA_WEDDING.layout’ found in the ‘VIDEO_TS’ folder is not a DVD-Video file and will not be included in the final disc or DLT.
Note: The file ‘VOB_DATA.LAY’ found in the ‘VIDEO_TS’ folder is not a DVD-Video file and will not be included in the final disc or DLT'.
Any suggestions would be really much appreciated..
Thanks

Optical drive does not read CD's but DVD's please help!

My disc burning read-out is:
HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4165B

G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5) Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5

Well, I bought a CD/DVD cleaner kit, and nothing happened--it didn't even recognize that the cleaner disc was in there and it didn't do anything.
I checked for an optical drive update, but the only one I found was for older Macs for 4X DVDs, which had nothing to do with CDs. Since even music discs won't mount, nor will discs that mount on every other Mac in the house, Macs both older and newer than my G5 and discs both older and newer, I suspect my drive is toast. Dang.

Exporting for DVD? Please help, I'm going nuts.

Hi all,
Pretty huge issue at the moment. I have a deadline to meet and I can't export my movie out of Final Cut to a DVD. How can I export the timeline for a DVD quality finished product? I don't have Compressor installed and I think this is a major issue. I tried printing to tape so I could bring the project over to Adobe Premiere and use Encore to publish the DVD, but every time I try to print to tape it constantly drops frames and it's hopeless.
If anyone has any suggestions at all please help me!
Thanks,
Daryl

thing is, I don't have FCS...I have FCP. I had my software installed where I bought my mac from, and I've came to realize now that I have nothing else but FCP installed...there is nothing else there that came with FCS. It's not really a huge problem because I can take my mac back whenever I want to get the owner to install any software I need, but that's kind of an issue at the moment considering I have deadlines. I can't afford to have my mac sitting at their office for a day or two at this point.
If I can just figure out how to print this thing back to tape so I can bring it into Premiere on my PC and use Encore to make the DVD everything will be golden. I'm just having HUGE issues trying to print this to tape...which shouldn't be a problem in the first place. (that I have encountered anyway).

DVD Size- Please help

I am in a little bit of a panic right now. I am rendering a movie in IDVD that I brought over from Final Cut Express. It's about 52 minutes long and 11GB. I put in a DVD that's only 4.7GB. I didn't know this was the problem. I put it in last night before I went to bed and this morning I got an error. I am assuming this is why I received the error. I am really new to all of this. Are there blank DVD's that will accomodate this size file and will they work with a MAC? Please help. I have to have this done by noon today.
Thank-you so much.

size doesn't matter in iDVD.. only length.. any under 120min is ok.
recommendations:
in iDVD: don't just 'burn', but select 'create image'.
in FCE: don't 'manually' convert into something by choosing 'Export/Quicktime Conversion', just 'Export/Quicktime Movie' - drag that into iDVD.
be sure, FCE project and iDVD project fit the same framerate/standard (25/29.97fps)
don't 'overwhelm' iDVD's dropzones with 'hours' of content.. those dropzones are meant to fit a few seconds (minute) of material..
be sure, your projects contain 'any' audio (even an audio-track of 'nothing' is audio.. but no 'empty' audio track in iDVD please).
when image is created, launch apps/Utilities/DiskUtility to 'copy' disk image onto a 'real' DVD.. choose Verbatim or Toyo Yuden -r ... burn speed 2-4x .

Video_TS folder error! can't get a quality burn for my DVD! please Help

I am currently working on a project in DVDSP 3. i have had problems with the computer freezing while trying to burn my DVD. If the computer didnt freeze while burning the Log (while going through the process) would bring up 2 error signs. One was: "The Video_TS folder will not be included in the final disc." And directly after that it would say: "the VOB_DATA.LAY file will not be included in the final disc. The burn was successful but when i viewed it the quality of the image was fuzzy and not up to par with previous burns.
I found out i had a bad hard-drive. So i replaced it. re-formatted my hard-drive and re-installed all my applications (i.e FCP, DVDSP). I re-compressed all my movies and re-created the entire DVD menu. But the problem still persists!
Please HELP!

When i am about to burn my project should i choose simply "burn" or "build/format" ?
Either one will create a folder on your harddrive with the TS Folders AND burn.
These warnings signify nothing. They're just to inform you that the certain files used by DVDSP to "contact" your initial build folder won't be included in your TS folders.
I can't figure out why Apple states these warnings - they do nothing but scare people

Should I make an HD DVD or an SD DVD? Please help!

I have footage that I shot in HDV quality (1440x1080i). I have edited them and now have 46 moviefiles of between 2 and 2,5 minutes each. The DVD will be used for mass reproduction, so I need to make sure it is playable by all (including older) DVD players.
Does this mean that I cannot make an HD DVD from it and that I should stick to a SD DVD? Is an HD DVD playable on any player? Or does the high resolution give trouble? Please help!

HD-DVD is a now defunct format, it has been replaced by Blu-ray, which DVDSP cannot author to. So if you're sticking with DVDSP, and you want it universally playable, you'll need to stick with an SD DVD.
On another note, this may be of assistance:

I installed Lion, now my dvd drive doesn't recognize any files on dvd. Please help.

I'm a photographer with tons on images on dvd and my dvd drive now doesn't recognize any files on any of my dvd's. Help!!!

After 3 trips to the Apple store this week, the issue is still unresolved. The photo dvd's open just fine on Snow Leopard, but are not recognized at all on Lion. I'm guessing since the DVD's were originally burned on a PC, they will no longer work. After finding out that PowerPC is no longer recognized by Lion and I can no longer use Nikon NX2 (Photo editing software), I will be re-installing Snow Leopard. According to the Apple store in Lancaster, Pa. there is no refund available for my Lion purchase. I have a ton of photo DVD's, most of which will not open since I've only recently switched to an IMAC system. It has made me think about returning to the PC world. I'm VERY unhappy with these developments and I really need to re-think my computer situation. I don't do much else besides photography. My purchases and time spent with my IMAC has aparently been a great waste.

Problem with DVD drive, please help

Hi people, please read the whole story and give me some advice.
Last Friday, took the train from Stoke on trent to Birmingham to get to Apple at the bullring as the DVD drive is not recognising DVDs. Everytime I put a dvd in, the blank dvd message comes up! They told me they can replace the drive, but it will take a few days unless I pay for Apple pro care, as I needed it done quick, I paid, I roamed around the shops waiting for the phone call that it is ready. After an hour, got a call saying that the NEW DRIVE they have in stock is faulty, so I came back, they told me that they will call me when they get another one in stock. Went back home after having wasted a day in birmingham.
Monday, got a message on my voicemail, the drive is in stock, pop in and we'll replace it. As I was working all week, I thought I'd give them a ring to arrange for the repair on Saturday where they can fit me. I tried to call all week, THE BULLRING STORE DOES NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONES!
So, I popped in today, they said that they cannot do it today as they were busy. I asked to see the store manager and explained to her the situation and how annoying it is not to be able to get in touch with the store. She told me she'll get it done before closing time.Luckily by 2 pm it was ready, picked up , hopped back on the train to stoke. Got home tried a DVD, it works, then suddenly STOPS WORKING.
The Macbook now doesn't recognise the drive at all, and I've got a DVD stuck in it.
I have wasted another day in birmingham + train fares + Apple pro crae (79.99). I am very frustrated, I am now having second thoughts on the quality of apple products. If the matsui drives are crap, why don't they get another manufacturer to make it for them.
I would appreciate your help on what should my next move be, I cannot keep loosing my time like this, I paid good money for this kit and I need it to work.

Have a read of this article. You definantely should be able to get a full refund (whether they will do that is a different matter).
If you don't ask (firmly) then you don't get. A 12 month warranty is there for a reason so use it. I can't believe they've actually charged you for work already within the 12 month period. I have also being trying ot look for an article about claiming unfair travel to and from a shop for repairs but I cannie find it.....
Would you consider asking for a replacment laptop. From what I have read on the forums, if you call apple they will be more likely to help out, maybe give them a try and avoid Birmingham all together.
ps, i'm from Stoke too -Small world eh?

White screen when playing dvds. Please help.

When I fast forward or rewind a movie on my Macbook the screen becomes white while the movie still plays. It takes about a minute for the white screen to go away. This has never happened before. Is there a problem with my Macbook or is it the dvd?

I actually figured out what was wrong. On my "viewDeactivate" event, I was cleaning up all object references (including the StageVideo instance). So everytime viewDeactivate was dispatched, the blank white screen would show up.
For anyone who runs into this situation (on the iPad), you should know that the viewDeactivate event is dispatched not only when moving between views, but also when alerts (or notifications) popup, when going back to the Home screen, and also when you double tap the Home button for the multitasking bar. Likewise the viewActivate event will fire when you return from any of the above mentioned states on the iPad, not just when moving between views. Knowing this helped me to fix the issue I was facing with StageVideo.
Hope this helps someone.

Newbie - scripting an "all play" in an instructional dvd? PLEASE HELP!

Hello and thanks in advance for any help you can offer. I am working on an instructional dvd with six chapters. On the main menu I have 6 buttons each assigned to a track (each track is assigned to the corresponding chapter) I want to have a 7th button that says "all play" and I would like to have tracks 1 through 6 play and then return to main menu.
I didn't write any scripts for the chapters (never had a project that needed any.) I went step by step with the manual and I know it's operator error but when I hit play all, the first two chapters play and then it goes back to the main menu even though I have the 6 chapters listed on the play all script. Also I added the shopping script at the end of that list. Do I have to make 6 individual scripts? One for each chapter/track? Sorry to be so dense, I'm sure it's easy. Thanks for any help you can offer.
