Share to DVD never completes finishing

I've cut a 15 minute wedding video. Quite enjoyed editing it in FCP X!
I shared it onto YouTube - and the bride and groom like the video.
So I've shared it to DVD. The ac3 and m2v files are created quickly, the video encoding used 8 cores, which is great.
But then the sharing gets stuck "finishing" - and was stuck for hours.
Here's a screen grab of my second attempt - it's been finishing for 25 minutes so far...
Any ideas what I've done wrong?
Thanks.

The handshake between FCP and a hidden app called Create Disk wasn't completed.
Try this. Select a short range and Share>DVD. In Output Settings. set it to Hard Drive to save as a disk image. (Save to your Desktop so you can find it.) For menu Background, click the Add button, then cancel. That is often enough to wake up the disk burning part of this process. If it makes a disk image, try a physical disk.

When I "share" to DVD the file is transcoded. When it reaches 66% it starts to "finishing", but the process stops and does not proceed beyond 66%. When I stop the sharing process I receive the following message "the share operation dvd has failed".

Is this a problem with FCPX or Create DVD? How can this problem be resolved?

FCP X share to DVD fails

Hi All,
I find I am not alone, and I have tried all the remedies that I can understand, to try to fix FCP X 10.1.3 failing to share to DVD. It shares to Master, but not DVD. I am using a 3 year old 27"iMac with 16 Gigs of RAM, that's running OS 10.9.5.
For the last 2 days I have tried the usual - deleting the preferences and render files and emptying the trash. I restarted Final Cut and the Mac numerous times. I have read some more complicated ideas, but am sure I will loose my editing work all together.
Can anyone explain what I should try now?
Many thanks,
Goomboorian

Hi again Tom,
I have followed thru: Ran FCS Remover and downloaded a new version of Compressor. Restarted computer after deleting the FCP X preferences and render files, tried to share to DVD - reached 46% then failed with the repeated error message "The operation couldn't be completed (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)"
So I then tried to share to disk, and this time it failed at 38% and with the same error message.
Here is the pertinent info about this video:
It runs for 34:10:16 (mins/sec/frames). It is taken from one clip from a Sony HVRA1 DV tape camera. No cuts apart from 20 seconds off the start and 10 seconds off the end. Original sound tract was discarded after synced with aif file from ProTools. One intro fade and one close out fade. I don't think I have ever done a simpler video.
Really need to get this working. Can you talk to Apple?

Clicking on a link opens a broken window that never completes?

When clicking on some links (for example, a list of links to pages in a newsletter email), a few will open, then I get dead windows. Sometimes the window will have just a title in the top bar and not go any further. More recently, I've been getting the title in the top bar, a small mini-window with about an inch of blue and the three upper-right window buttons (but non-functional), and a status bar in the middle of a black window. The status bar will go through several messages, but the window itself never completes.

Share Operation DVD Has Failed

I have a project on Final Cut Pro X that is close to 90 minutes long. It consists of several 5 minute video clips. When I try to share the project to DVD it gets about 33% done when I get this error -
The share operation "DVD" has failed.
The operation couldn't be completed.
(com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain
error-1.)
I am running
Final Cut Pro X (10.1.4)
OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Paul

If the clips are native media, try optimizing them.

Share to DVD Failed.

Mac Pro 5,1; "Quad Core" 2.8 GHz Quad Core 45nm Xeon W3530 (Nehalem) processor; 8 MB of "fully shared" level 3 cache; Yosemite 10.10.2; FCP X 10.1.4; three HDs: 2x2TB, 1x4TB all internal and two internal Apple Super-drives. I do NOT have compressor installed. This Mac Pro is a recent acquisition for me.
I have successfully shared a number of times to DVD disc with FCPX, however a week or so ago one failed to complete. I got an error message:
The Share Operation "DVD" has Failed.
The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)
The share to DVD that failed had an estimated size (by FCPX) well under 4GB. There was nothing unusual about the source file (Event) or the timeline project. The source file was an AVI. I followed the same process that I had used previously with successful results. It now fails consistently with every attempt to share.
It is a mystery to me. I have tried several different approaches to resolving this issue. The least productive was a search on the net for a solution. There are lots of comments but no really specific fix for this that I can find.
Amongst other things I have tried is a cold start of my Mac Pro; ensuring no background apps running; Onyx cleanup etc.; deleting generated project files and so on. Some times after doing this, FCP X shares OK, but then fails on the next attempt to share. I would not care so much if I could at least produce an IMG (ISO) file then burn that to disc, but that consistently fails too.
For the most part I have had to revert to using Premiere Pro and my PC again, so did I waste my money buying a Mac Pro and FCP X? Should I have to buy Apple’s Compressor software to get FCP X to work, I don’t think so?
Most of my work is straightforward and simple VHS conversion, with minor edits, nothing complicated. Typical file size around 2GB or so.
I am thinking that the solution lays with the software developers not my Mac Pro, but I don’t think they can be giving this issue any real attention. Maybe they pushed this release to market without adequate testing, beta or otherwise.
I am really miffed about the whole situation. If there is a solution in this forum somewhere or somewhere else, a link to it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I had an opportunity to experiment today. Here is what I did and the results.
Before doing anything, checked that all Generated Event File were deleted, then created a new Event.
Selected an AVI file.
After the AVI clip was imported, right clicking on the clip in the Event browser and selecting Transcode, shows Create Optimized Media is greyed out and not available.
Dragged the Event to the Timeline and clicked on Share. Selected DVD and then Saved to Hard Drive. Same issue occurred: The Share operation “DVD” has Failed.
Selected Share again and then Master File.
This time the Share was successful, it created a 10GB Quick Time Movie. That is OK, except it does not create a burnable Image (IMG) or a F=DVD disc.
Back to the drawing board, yes? Any suggestions?
Regards,
Peter B.

Mac - Export H264 Never Completes

I have found that when ever I try to export a sequence to H264 (in CS6), using either the Export button or the Queue button via Media Encoder the export never completes. In media encoder it says 00:00 time left. the file 'appears' to be complete but the temp file has not been deleted.
The same sequence works perfect on windows.
The same sequence can be exported for DVD on a Mac and everything completes fine.
CS5.5 works perfectly for the same sequence on the Mac. CS6 doesn't.
I've already checked / repaired permissions but no change. Any ideas?

There ought to be a sticky post about what users should do when Pr stops working.
First off, eliminate your computer as the problem. Permissions, Disk Warrior, RAM check, etc.
If no help, start with relaunching the app.
If no help, reboot the computer.
If no help, reset prefs (Hold option while launching. Hold option-shift to reset prefs and dump caches).
If no help, try a new project or different media, to eliminate your source footage as being corrupted.
If it happens with any and all projects and footage and fresh prefs, uninstall and reinstall the app.
If no help, post your issue to the list.
If others are having the same problem, file bug report.

"Publishing to YouTube failed. The request timed out." - This was a 54:10 long project and "share to DVD" was OK

Another long project (54:10) and new problems .
I am not a frequent FCP user and during my last major project a couple of months ago I experienced "Share operation DVD has failed, QuickTime Error 0" and "QuickTime error - 50" when exporting to YouTube. Thanks to Ross I overcame then both challenges.
The current project is 54:10 and "share to DVD" went reasonably well. However, during burning several copies (20 copies) of the same DVD, at the very end of the operation I received a message "There was an error buring your disk, The operation could not be completed (DSP Publishing error - 29)". This was puzzling because the copies when played seem all rirght and usable.
Is there any remedy regarding the above (not so important as the copies are playable) and the "Publishing to You Tube failed. The request timed out" ? Sharing to YouTube took over 8 hours and the counter went up from 1 to 100. Any suggestions, please ?
Warm regards.

Thanks for warning. Will not touch the library bundle any more. However, I will describe the current situation:
Under "Libraries">"Macintosh HD projects and events"> (five items).
These five items are:
1. "Updated projects" - containing 2 projects ("Italy" and "Cracow") and 1 footage/clips "Cracow" only;
2. "Xmas" - containing 1 project ("Xmas" ) and the corresponding footage ("Xmas");
3. "Rome" - containing 2 projects ("Pandas" and "Rome") and 2 footages ("Pandas" and "Rome");
4. "New Even Wednesday 11 December 2013" - empty (message "import media");
5. "Italy" - no projects, just footage of "Italy"
What a mess I have made ! - It appears that project "Italy" could be moved from 1 to 5. A new event (?) called "Pandas" could be created with its own project and footage. No 4 could be deleted. No 2 is OK.
Please comment.
I appreciate your patience
Regards -
Kris

Share to DVD doesn't start at the beginning

I have a multicam timeline that I am trying to share to DVD. When I test the created DVD it always starts at about 3/4 of the way into the movie. I have exported a master file and I created a DVD in Wondershare Ultimate Converter and it also starts 3/4 of the way into the movie (at the exact same place). I am therefore concluding that it is my timeline that is the causing the problem but I have no idea what to look for. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi Slim!
Thanks for the reply. Your screen shot is attached but it is pretty small. The position of the playhead is where the DVDs always begin.
I can only think that there is something going on with the multicam editing. This is the first time I have used it so I may be doing something wrong. Is there some way to "set" the final as a non-multicam clip? I ask this because I tried your idea of making it into a compound clip. I selected all the elements (CMD-a) and then right-clicked and selected New Compound Clip. It did not recognize my cuts but included all of the entire clips. So, undaunted, I undid all of that and tried again. This time it only selected the proper cuts and I put it into a new project. However, the DVD burned from that new project didn't change the outcome.
The funny thing is that all of the quicktime files play correctly, so there is definitely something weird going on.
Taos is great! It is an unbelievably beautiful place. We haven't had much snow this winter, though, although the ski valley has been good, but they are at 9,000 feet and we are only about 7,000.
More ideas anyone?

ps .. thanks for the other post but I am not getting that error. My piece is only 7 mins 40 secs and the share is completing.

TS1702 I hit the "update all" button in the app store and things seemed to get started, but never completed. Now all those apps have a "waiting" msg under them. How do I correct this?

turn your ipad off by holding the sleep wake button for 5 seconds and slide to turn off then turn it back on and the apps should be finished and if the apps didnt finish just redownload them

TS4522 i trying to do my best but share in dvd take long after show is fail

help me please my final cut 10.1.1 to share in dvd take long then fail how can do?

yes.. you should call apple care.
BUT problem 1), 2), and 4) could all be due to this:
If you choose shut-down, and then close the lid the very second the screen has turned off, then you may unintendely close the lid before the computer has turned off completely.
You have to wait 2- 3 seconds more before you close the lid.
You can actually here that the computer is still running a second or two after the screen has turned off.
You have to be very carefull about this.
Because besides draining your battery and having an improper shut down, you may harm your computer by the excessive heat that can be generated while its running with a closed lid. Especially if you store it in a sleeve and/or a bag.
Also the new firmware update, fixes issues of "sleeping" and "waking up" from sleep. Related issues, that is.
So be sure to install the firmware update, follow the instructions careully. (just use "software update" to download and initiate the process)
sincerely...peter

IPod sync never completes, if I cancel the sync a large portion of my music disappears

Hi, hopefully someone here can help!
I have recently had an issue with my iPod touch and iTunes 12.0.1.26. It has been a bit of a pain to sync ever since that update that screwed up other people's iThings but I hadn't had a problem in a few months. Now whenever I try to sync it will take a long time and never complete, always getting hung up on the last step before anything is transferred. If I unplug or cancel I get an error box that says the iPod couldn't be recognised and the sync failed to start even though it would get through to that last bit after backing itself up. After each failed attempt the Other data section becomes bigger until I get another error saying that there is not enough space on my iPod for everything, sometimes it is over capacity by 10GB. Every time this happens I end up with less and less music on my iPod until I get incomplete playlists and entire albums wiped off. After this the only solution seems to be a factory reset and restore from backup, which I have done twice already this week.
My phone will sync with no issues so I am not sure if it is a software or hardware problem. Its winding me up, anyone have any ideas? I have already removed and reinstalled iTunes and have done a reset on the iPod.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reboot the computer
- Try another USB port
- Try another cable
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution. When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom. How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?

I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution. When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom. How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels? I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended. I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business. I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now. Hopefully you can help me. Thanks.

Thank you for your reply.
You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
Best results depend on you
a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR [email protected]
or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
and it is low quality
Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.
