Some of my scenes selection menus won't turn or play sound.

My main menu and the first scene selection menu has motion and sound, but the rest of the scene selection menus do not turn or play sounds (music).  How can I get them to work?

First create a disk image of the project and see if those menus work as expected when played with DVD Player on your Mac.  If they do then the problem lies in the burning process.
Follow the workflow described below to help assure the best quality disk possible:
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 and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was 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.

  • Way To Make AUDIO On Scene Selection Menus SEAMLESS?

    I've searched and have not found anything that helped.
    I have 4 'pages' in my scene selection menu. I would like for the same audio track to play seamlessly throughout (when shifting from page to page to locate a particular scene).
    In its current state, the audio starts over each time that you move to a new... erm...'page' (what's the correct term here?), and I find the lack of continuity or, at the very least, transition to be a bit jolting and quite irritating.
    Anyone know if there is a way to carry the same audio track throughout?

    You cannot do this by just selecting the audio in the first scene selection (submenu) because each submenu plays alone, and the length of the audio played depends on how long the menu is displayed. The length of time the scene selections play, and thus the audio, is determined by the viewer--you cannot control this. If your audio clip is short, only 15 seconds or so, it will repeat continuously until you (or someone) clicks on the arrows to go to another submenu or clicks on the scene to play it.
    You could choose just a portion of the audio you wish to play, say the first 30 seconds, and then choose the second 30 seconds to play on the second menu and so forth. You would have to use an app like Wiretap to record the poarticular portions you want for each submenu. Then, if one viewed the submenus for exactly 30 seconds, the music would be close to playing 'seamlessly.' But, the viewer has the option of keeping the submenu displayed for an indefinite length of time, so each 30 second snipet would just repeat itself.
    Hope this is clear to you

  • Titles on Scene Selection Menus

    I have my movie completed and I used garageband to creat chapter markers. I shared it from garageband to idvd and things are working fine. I am using the Revolutions theme from the idvd 08. On the main page, I was able to change the title of the movie which in turn changed the animated text to the same as it spins. All was good. However, when I went to the scene selection pages, I am not able to change the animated text and all it says is "Chapters Revolution" as it spins around. How do I change it or at least get rid of it? Everything else on the scene selection pages are fine.

    I'm having the same problem except that I used iMovie '06 to create the movie and create titles.
    Using the same Revolution Theme, my chapter pages don't have any still "Chapters Revolution" to click on. How do I change mine?

  • Scene selection only allows first chapter to play in previews

    In the scene selection screen, iDVD will show each chapter in the movie and allows you to play a short movie clip as a preview. I would think that each chapter would allow you to play a portion of video from that chapter. But instead, iDVD only allows you to play a clip from chapter 1 in all the chapters. That makes no sense. What am I missing here?

    I have same problem. In test mode, clicking on each chapter starts a relevant time in the main movie. But on a burned project only first chapter works, other just loop but when clicked on, nothing happens. Any help around?
    Where can I download IDVD06?

  • Creating Addition Scene Selection Menus

    I have a group of 10 small videos that I want to place on a submenu, well actually two submenus which you can access with the "back and forth arrows" at the bottom of the DVD screen. How can I create this effect?
    I can create two submenus easily, but I don't want their to be say 5 videos on one screen and the 6th to be a link/button to the other page with five more videos. I want 6 videos on the first page and a right arrow to appear at the bottom which proceeds to the next page/submenu containing the other 4 videos.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    For example, in your last "page" (with the red 3), there is a left arrow at the bottom to go back to the previous page. Well I want to create a right arrow to go to the next page, and thus not using up one of the 6 object/video spots on the page.
    Short of what was suggested above, I think you may found a limitation within iDVD6 ..... Sounds like you will need DVDSP to do what you wish correctly (many more options in apple's top end/ pro apps). Good luck on this and if I happen to find an alternate option I will make sure and post back.

  • 55G310U won't turn on surround sound receiver; 46G300U worked fine

    I had a 46G300U connected to a Yamaha RX-V467 surround sound receiver via HDMI. It worked great: when I turned the TV on or off the receiver turned off as well, and the TV remote correctly controlled the receiver's volume.
    I replaced the TV with a new 55G310U TV. And while the RX-V467 is correctly recognized as a REGZA LINK device, the TV does not turn it on when it powers up. Worse than that, the sound keeps reverting to the TV speakers, so each time I turn on the TV I must go to REGZA LINK setup and re-select the audio receiver for sound output.
    Has anyone seen this?

    I have that same problem, did you ever get an answer?

  • Why won't my ipad2 play sound when i open apps

    I just got the ipad 2 it is working great in every other way as fare as i can tell, but when ever i open an app, it wont play the sound from the app. i have checked every thing i can think of. all apps and every thing have been updated. the ipad 2 will play my music and movies just fine its only with the apps that i downloaded. help please!!

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds. So check the side switch first if you have no sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Battery works but iPod won't turn on/play

    IPOD 1.1 - worked for a couple weeks but stopped working -now the only button that will display any power is when you press the Battery button, pressing play or anything else just does not work!
    Any suggestions?
    When plugging in to computer IPOD shows up and can still add songs with Itunes.
    ps. I have used it to go jogging on occasion so might have gotten "moist" - can this be the problem?

    You have successfully diagnosed you own problem. Moisture got into the device through the controls and that is why it is not working. Let it sit in a warm, dry place for a couple of days and see if it comes back. If not return it through:

    ...and buy a sports case, otter box, or wrap it in saran wrap when you jog with it.

  • Scene Selection JPEGs Problem

    I've made an iDVD and used garage band to set up the chapter markers. I then shared the movie with iDVD. The scene selection menu is set up nicely. I have put different images on each scene selection page. The DVD intro page has a different picture too in the back ground. The whole thing looks great when we check it all out on the computer. We burn a DVD and then when we play it on our DVD player/tv an image (jpeg) file that is on a scene selection page shows up on the introduction page of DVD, on top of the image we selected, why? Also, at times when using the "pass through" theme on the scene selection page instead of it having the moving text on the bottom of the page that says "scene selections 1-6" is says "Pass Through Chapters", but not on each page.

    Nope, that wasn't the problem. I have even started with a fresh iDVD project, deleting the original. I am using iDVD '08, but chose the pass through theme from the 7.0. For some reason when the DVD burns it changes the ending photo on the menu page. It changes to one of the images I chose for one of the scene selection menus. I've tried different things and still have the same problem. Is it just a bug or a problem I am having using a 7.0 theme in iDVD '08? I have made quite a few coasters of dvd's that are not how I intended them to look. Also, after importing (sharing) from garage band, the first of three scene selection menus has "pass through chapters" moving across the screen instead of "scenes 1-6" as it should.
    Frustrated here.

  • Adding scene selection button

    How do I add a button that links to the scene selection on the disc menu?

    When you add Scene Markers to your Timeline, PrE will automatically add the link from a Scene Selection Button (from either the Main Menu, or a Scene Selection Menu, depending on the chosen Template) automatically, and will even create any necessary Scene Selection Menus, to accommodate the number of Scene Markers that you have.
    In PrE, such linking is done automatically, and requires not input from the user, beyond the creation of those Scene Markers, and the choice of Menu Template.
    In many other authoring programs, and especially full-featured programs, like Adobe Encore, those links ARE done manually.
    Good luck, and hope that helps,

  • Scene Selection problem

    Ok.. Everytime I try to export my video out of final cut pro with markers... and trust me I have done many ways... I try importing my video into idvd and it just inports the video... No scene selection.... I have done this before just the same as I'm doing now with the same computer and everything but nothing.... Anybody have any ideas of whats going on????

    Open the exported QuickTime movie in QT Player, do you see the chapter markers (a pop-up menu below the viewer)? If it is, then the export from FCP is fine. If not,then something is missing.
    Check the iDVD's Preferences, is the "automatically create scene selection menus" enabled?

  • Scene Selection / Easter egg conflict

    I have a hidden easter egg movie on one of my scene selection menus. When I burned the DVD, and selected the easter egg, everything played normally. However, after playing the movie, if I move the selection to an actual scene, then it plays the easter egg movie again, and not the scene that I select. It does this even if I change screens to a different scene selection page and choose one of the other scenes. Has anyone else out there had this problem? Thanks for your help!

    Moving around buttons in iDVD can cause this kind of thing. Make sure your buttons are not at all crowded they are in reality a bit bigger than they appear on the screen.
    Also check your project in map view to see if it is mixed up on other menu pages.....

  • How do you make a scene selection?

    i recently made about 18 movies on imove with a total length of 9 hours and 43 minutes so they are all exported seperately.
    i want to be able to put them on idvd with a scene selection but i want to know if there is a way to put a "play all" button.
    Another question - what would the best way to distribute the movie (like is there a way to fit this much movie on a dvd)
    Any help is apprectiated!

    Hi
    A. iDVD limit is about 240 minutes on DL-DVDs and that is Movie + MENU (and this can take significant space/minutes)
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1)
    iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus  less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    About double on DL DVDs.
    B. Scene selections - is as I get it Chapters and they are preferably set in the movie editor e.g. iMovie or FinalCut. iDVD will create Scene Selection sub-menu automatically.
    C. Play all button - No there are non in iDVD - but can be faked in two ways.
    • Double movie way - all parts + one full movie containing all
    Pro - easy to do and easy to understand
    Cons - takes up x2 space
    • Put movies into a SlideShow and un-cheque limit picture size
    Pro - x1 space
    Cons - To me the Audio was severely degraded
    D. Total space
    • iDVD - 240 minutes (iDVD do not care about Gbs at all only duration)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Can squees in 10 hours on a SL-DVD and about x2 on DL-DVD (I guess)
    CONS - The Quality will be severely degraded making old VHS tapes recorded in LP-mode look fabulous when compared - Yes 10 hours will look awful.

  • Scene selection freezes burned dvd

    Hello,
    I recently burned an iDVD project that was about an hour long. The finished burned dvd plays on a dvd player when I press play from the menu. However, when I try to go to the scene selection sub menu I created, it will not work. In fact, when I try to go to a specific scene, the whole dvd freezes up in the dvd player. Any ideas on how to try burning the iDVD project so that the finished product has a working scene selection? Thanks as always.

    Hi
    +If I was unable to produce a successful disc image with a working scene selection (the freezing happened when I played the image too), does that mean I have a bigger issue than just Memorex vs. Verbatim? I have a feeling that even if I buy the Verbatim, the scene selection will freeze because it froze on the disc image anyway.+
    YES. If the DiskImage don't work. Don't burn it onto DVDs.
    The problem is in the process to make the DVD in iDVD.
    eg using .avi movie files, .mp3 sound etc.
    a. secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk
    (other ones of no importance)
    b. Versions of Mac OS, iDVD and QuickTime (important) up to date
    c. Material to build DVD from only.
    • streamingDV (video+audio)
    • .aiff (audio eg from audio-CDs)
    • .jpg (photos - I use this)
    Nothing else - convert it to match
    d. START a new iDVD project and make Your DVD-design and then a DiskImage
    e. Test this with Apple DVD-player
    Does it work - burn it with either
    • iDVD
    • Disk Util tool (set down speed)
    (• Roxio Toast™ (set down speed))

  • My iTouch won't turn on no matter what I do

    I have an iTouch, and for some reason... It won't turn on.
    I tried resetting it by holding both buttons, plugging it into the computer, waited about 25 minutes to see if it was dead & it still WILL NOT turn on. My computer won't even recognize it. What should I do? It's the 1st gen. but it's been VERY well taken care of.

    Sounds like you may need a new battery.
