Subtitles suddenly displaying by default on burned DVD but not in simulator

Hello, subtitles which normally did not display until they were selected 'on' from a menu choice in the DVD are suddenly automatically being displayed by default when played on a stand alone DVD player for a television.
The subtitles however do not show up by default in the DVD Studio Pro simulator nor when I play from a 'build' folder using the Mac DVD player. Also, burned DVD's do not display the subtitles by default on two of my Macintosh systems when played with DVD Player (Macbook Pro and Powerbook G4 both running Leopard) yet the subtitles do display by default on a stand alone DVD player.
I have 'force display' off on the subtitle track (applied to whole subtitle stream).
I created brand new builds and can't figure out why this is suddenly occurring. I opened up very old projects and rebuilt them and they exhibit the same problems.
Anyone with any ideas? I recently upgraded from 10.4.11 to Leopard - is it possible that that would have caused the problem. Thank you.

I have not changed any settings on my set top Panasonic DVD player. The set top box can display subtitles but typically only does so when I choose it from a menu. This just started happening 2 days ago.
The same is occurring on another person's stand alone DVD player so I am fairly certain something is going on with the DVD build. The only major change I did recently was upgrade to Leopard and install the Apple software updates. There doesn't seem to be a preference or setting to display all subtitles in DVD Studio Pro - I am at a loss why this is doing this even with older projects that have worked perfectly and not been modified (just rebuilt and burned).

  • Can burn DVD but not CD

    I don't have any problem burning DVD's using iDVD, but I can't burn a CD using iTunes. It goes through the whole process, checking media, initalizing, burning, etc. then iTunes plays that little doo doo doo sound saying it's done, but then I hear a sound from the burning devise, like an err err err. I can't eject the disc unless I force quit iTunes. When I look at the disc I can see a burned area, so I put it back in the Mac and it says the disc is blank, so I put it in my Pioneer stereo player to get a second opinion and it says the disc is blank too.
    I'm trying to figure out if this is a software or a hardware problem.
    Or is it possible the blank CDs I have are bad? (CD-R 74 min 650 mb) I've tried changing the settings in iTunes preferences but it still doesn't work and I've thrown away 7 CDs so far.
    I have a PowerMac G5 with OSX 10.4.4, Sony DVD RW DW-Q28A burner and iTunes 6.0.2
    PowerMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    It varies by the drive model, not by the OS. So there's no brand that works better with Mac OS X, per se, but rather your current brand may not work well in your iMac's drive where another brand might work better. I've had good luck with Maxell and bad luck with Memorex, but that might not be the case with the drive in your iMac. Try a disk or two of some other brand and see if that works better.
    If another brand doesn't work better, try just a Finder burn to see if the problem is with burning through iTunes or burning in general. If the Finder burn also fails, then the iMac's drive might be dirty (try a lens cleaning disk) or defective.
    Good luck.

  • BD-203 available to burn DVD but not BDR

    Greetings all...
    I am working on a project that is going out in DVD and BD and have come across an slight problem.  I am using Encore CS4 and I have a regular Pioneer DVD-R drive and the BD 203 drive which shows up as the default.  (Win XP 4 GB RAM)  When I go to burn a DVD-R Encore defaults to the BD drive and burns just great, but as soon as I switch to a BD project the burn panel says that there are no drives available.  I have rebooted, come back a later day, barked at the moon and did the wiggly dance to help.  I am able to burn to the drive with the software that came with the drive, so for the time being I am making an .iso and then burning it later, just wondering what is going on really...
    It has worked in the past, and I don't know what could have changed it.  Wondering if anyone has any ideas...

    It has worked in the past, and I don't know what could have changed it.  Wondering if anyone has any ideas...
    Does this burner require a driver? Is it up to date? Things like simple OS updates can render many drivers obsolete. Is the burner's firmware up to date?
    and did the wiggly dance to help
    I've found that often doing the "wiggly dance" BEFORE the barking at the Moon, sometimes does the trick...
    Going back to the serious part, if there is no driver, and the firmware IS up to date, I'd go into System>Hardware>Device Manager, and remove the BD burner, then reboot and let Windows find and install it again. This has cleared up some similar issues for others.
    Good luck,

  • PE 8 burns DVD, but not Blu-ray disc

    I have recently updated to PE 8.01 but all of this took place before the  update. I successfully burned a 1 hour HD Blu-ray with no problem (all video from Canon HF200 and pictures from Canon Rebel xti). I then tried to burn a different project that was 2 1/2 hours long. In this disc, I did include a short AVI file from a camera (maybe this is why??). I had to cut video out because it kept telling me I didn't have enough room on the blu ray, even though my total was under the 25 gig storage capacity of the blu-ray disc. Each time I cut video/pictures it shut the program down and I had to restart the program about 6 times. I finally chose to compress to fit and it failed to burn to a blu-ray and blue screened our computer after 14 hours of enocoding and burning. Then I tried to compress it to a DVD and it burned successfully in 6 hours. I thought it might burn to blu-ray so I tried again and it blue screened our computer after 6 hours (it was 75% complete).
    Computer is a HP Pavilion Elite. Intel I-9 processor, 12 gigs RAM, it has two 1 Terabyte hardrives, and has GPU invidia. I bought this computer ONLY to render HD to blu-ray DVD. It seems to take a long time and then blue screens my computer. Any suggestions?

    The OS and drivers on a new PC are always out-of-date because the system master will have been created well before its sale. So do some of the basics first:
    Install all Windows updates
    Install latest version of QuickTime (v7.6.6 at time of writing)
    Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites
    Check for a firmware update for your Blu-Ray drive
    Run Disk Cleanup
    Run Defragmenter
    Post back here with the necessary information described here: Got a Problem? How to Get Started

  • MacPro will burn dvds but won't burn blu-rays anymore?

    I've been using Compressor (ver. 3) to burn blu-rays and dvds of my movie for several months just fine.  A few days ago after opening my blu-ray project in Compressor it did the usual: tray opens and it says "Please insert blu-ray media…"  I put a blank disk in (the same kind I've been using all along) and pushed the keyboard eject button to close the tray but it didn't move.  I manually pushed the tray closed and I could hear it spin up several times and then it spit the disk back out.  I repeated this several times with no luck.  I tried different blu-ray media (didn't work).  I tried burning a dvd and it DID work, so I'm thinking it's not the blu-ray drive.  However I tried burning with Disk Utility and it wouldn't work.  I also tried to make a blu-ray burn folder and it wouldn't work.  It doesn't make sense that it can burn dvds but not blu-rays.
    I'm not sure what else to do.  I haven't upgraded (still on Lion).  Would upgrading to Mavericks fix this?  Everything's been working great so I didn't want to upgrade and mess it all up.  I fear taking it to an Apple Store will cost more than purchasing a new blu-ray burner.
    Any thoughts or advice?  Thank you for your help!

    Upgrade to Yosemite.

  • Burned DVD does not play in MacBook Pro but does in other computers.

    Hi, everyone. I have recently had some issues playing backed up copies of DVDs that I have. These two particular DVDs have not been able to play properly with DVD player. They will begin playing but never actually make it to the main menu screen. I have tried downloading other media software, such as VLC, but this has not been of any help.
    What's even more bizarre is that they successfully play in my old Dell computer (Inspiron 700m) and a desktop HP that the rest of the family uses. Does anyone have any insight or advice? Thanks.

    In addition, make sure the burned DVDs are not dirty, cracked and/or smudged in any way. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50448 *How to Handle and Clean CD and DVD Discs*
    Your drive may need cleaning. Cleaning kits can be purchased from any store that sells CD/DVDs.

  • HELP! MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, and...

    Hi all
    I noticed that there many of you have the same problem, but I really need some advice here, my MacBook Pro cant recognise or burn DVDs but only CDs, well actually occasionally it does recognise the DVDs then it burn but cannot write (on Toast), also in many other apps, like iDVD or DVDSP, it does run well on the first part of the burning but then failed at the end, with all kinda diff error msg. I have tried using many diff brands of disc too, inc verbatim.
    So I borrowed my friends external DVD writer (actually a cheapy one with no brand), when I tried to burn using the external then an error msg comes up and says the writer cannot recognise the disc.
    I dont wana get the MBP to repair but just wana get a external DVD writer to solve the problem, cos i need to use my computer and dont have a replacement mac, but now I am worry if the problem i now having is a system problem or just hardware, not sure if it is because the DVD writer i borrow is cheapy so it doesnt cope with mac, or just my MBP have system error that cant burn DVDs...
    But my MBP can burn CDs so it is not a hardware problem? and if that is a system problem so even I buy a new DVD writer wont solve the problem?
    btw, I have tried many solving methods like rewriting permission, reset PVRAM, etc
    PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS HELP

    I'm having the same problem you are on my 2.4GHZ Core2Duo MBP running 10.5.2. It will sometimes recognize DVDs, sometimes not... it chuggs and clunks and then spits the disc out. If i re-insert it a view times it will show up on the desktop. I get failures from Toast as well as iDVD. If i keep trying i have been able to burn files onto a disc with the finder, but then the burner fails during the verification. If put the disc back in the contents appear to be correct (after a quick look). Burning CD-Rs seems to be working fine, that with the occasional DVD write seems to point away from the HW. I am trying with both Memorex DVD+RW and Verbatim DVD-Rs...
    I have tried the command/option-PR reset combo with no luck.
    Any ideas?
    thanks,

    PS the specific error i got from iDVD was: The error #-2147352539 was reported…

  • Can burn CDs but not DVDs

    My CD/DVD drive worked fine until 3 weeks ago.  I tried to burn home movies to DVD using Nero and it stopped burning.  I restored my computer to factory condition and reinstalled Nero.  No help.  I bought a newer version of Nero and switched from Sony DVDs to Verbatim.  No help.  Then I discovered that I can send files to my Drive E: and burn CDs but not DVDs.
    I downloaded all the Microsoft updates.  I have recovery discs but that is a lot of work all over again when I'm not even sure it will help.  I have 2 external drives where I keep my files and backup but I would still need to setup email and reinstall my programs.
    I was about ready to buy a new drive for the computer when I saw on the internet that other people have this problem too.  I would really rather get the drive I have working.

    Hi,
    Sounds like hardware problem, not software. Please clean the lens first, please try:

  • Will read DVDs but not CDs

    I have a satellite a305-s6872 that will read dvds but not cds.  It was reading cds the last time I tried (October) but now it's not.  This means that I can't play or burn cds.  It also means that I can't install any programs that come on a cd.  Please help!

    I have the same problem. It reads DVDs, and rejects CDs, even perfect/new CDs.
    Apple Support told me there will soon be a software update (in a week?) to fix this problem, but I am not convinced.

  • Imac G5 Play Dvd but Not Cd

    I have a Imac G5 with a superdrive and if will play DVD but not CD. Anyway i can fix this?

    Two ways that might fix it (the superdrive uses different lasers for CDs and DVDs):
    1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietary lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
    2. Reset the SMU:

  • HP Pavilion DV7 2206TX - DVD drive reads DVDs but not CD's

    My HP Pavilion DV7 2206TX - DVD drive reads DVDs but not CD's.
    When I insert a CD, the drive tries very hard to read the CD but gives up after about a minute.
    I get no error message.  I do not see the Auto play message.
    Windows Explorer does not recognize the DVD drive.
    When I insert a DVD, I get the Autoplay menu, Windows Explorer recognize the drive and the DVD. I can play the DVD using any number of Video players.
    I would welcome advice relating this problem.

    your HP Pavilion needs a new DVD driver. I ran into many problems such as this when troubleshooting computers in school.
    A DVD drive should play CD at any time:  While a CD driver will not play a DVD disc. Do not think there is a problem with sofware because it will only throw your troubleshooting skills  out the window and it will confuse you.

  • IMac will play DVDs but not CDs

    My 2009 iMac will play DVDs but not CDs (bought music CDs and burnt CDs). The last time I tried (successfully) was December 2013. Can anyone help?

    Start a new topic and don't hijack this one.  You're problem is different from the OPs. When you start the new topic give your system version, iMac year and model and what type of CDs you can't read, i.e. commercial or those you created yourself.  Also if you can read DVDs.

  • Superdrive can read and burn dvds but CANNOT read or burn CDs??

    My DVR-107D can read and burn DVD's, but all of a sudden it cannot even read or mount a cd. It also cannot burn CD's. I've run 2 cleaning discs, and even manually cleaned the lens. I feel it may be a software issue at this point... Any ideas?? Finder is set to open CDs and DVDs to the desktop.

    Hi
    There are two lenses in the drive. It is possible for one to fail while the other still functions. I manually cleaning the lenses made no difference, it is quite possible that aspect of the drive is dead.
    You may want to try from a different admin User account (and with a third party app such as Toast, in addition to Finder, iTunes, iPhoto, Disc Utility)
