Toast 10 Question (AVCHD Archive)

Sorry is this is in the wrong place but I really didn't know where to post it!
Hi, I'm trying to do a AVCHD archive of my camcorder, its a Sony HDR-SR8 PAL model.
I purchased Toast 10 Pro for the sole reason of doing this. When I connect my camcorder Toast recognizes it and says it'll take ten DVD's to archive what's already in my camcorder.
When I insert a blank DVD and hit record for the first time I got the following message:
"could not record the disc because of a mac os error result code = 50"
Then when I tried again I got a message saying "data will span 0 (zero) discs" and when I hit ok nothing happens.
This is so confusing why its not working and I would really appreciate any help to solve the problem.
Let me know if you need any more info and thank you to anyone that can help

Sorry, mate. I dont blame you for looking for an answer wherever you can get it.
I think the answer is, that its roxio toast and you will not get an answer. I have tried searching and searching for roxio errors to no avail. Its not an apple program, sorry to say and really should be offered with a trial.
My example: I have roxio toast 9, and all I wanted to to was burn the AIC files from iMovie into a blu-ray disc. Fretted for months, but the error would show up ALWAYS at the end of the encode (after some 6 hours of encoding.) My only theory is that there was a limit on the number of AIC files I could add. I dont know. But I found nothing in the documentation or from users. Just a theory.
Then toast 10 came out. Guess what. The same process I tried with 9 works every time.
I see posts all the time with people trying to get help, and either no one answer.
1. Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling.
2. Perhaps you can find a work-around where you break up the content yourself and try a smaller archive attempt. Perhaps move all of your .mts files off the camera onto a harddrive, except for ONE clip. See if it archives properly.
3. If the camera takes a memory stick, then record a 20 sec clip and see if that imports with the same settings.
4. Search the first few clips on the camera. Do they still play back thoroughly? Perhaps one is corrupt and deleting it fixes the problems. You never know, one of the preview thumbnails could be corrupt and toast depends on that file to start its index.
5. Try a different brand of disk.
See here. The problem is common. http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/50779-mac-os-error-result -code-50-a.html

  • Subtitling (question about archived material)

    OK, I've looked through the archived questions about how to subtitle...and I just want to make sure I do this right. If I do subtitles in DVDSP, do I write them up in a text file first and then import them, or just type them in manually?
    If I do subtitles in FCP I just use something like Title3D and type them in manually...creating a whole buncha overlay (title) clips, right?
    Forgive the redundency, I know how subtitles are supposed to look, just trying to find the best (and least time consuming) way to produce them.
    FYI...the subtitles will be of a person from Spain speaking English (it's kinda hard to understand him since he talks fast and has a heavy Spanish accent).
    Thanks, all, in advance.

    subtitling (question about archived material)< </div>
    So you are trying put subtitles on your archived material?
    If you use the subtitle track in DVDSP, the text will be switchable by the user. (This is made more complicated by several factors like your desire to make the subtitles permanent or uncontrollable by the user. These are options you can control by programming the DVDSP project. Not difficult but very confusing.)
    If you use a text tool in FCP, the titles will be permanently burned into the video image.
    If you use some fo the more sophisticated (read: Expensive) subtitling tools for FCP, you can export a caption-compliant file that can be printed to videotape or mastered to DVD. If you own one of these products, you are at the complete mercy of their manual's writer.

  • AVCHD archive importing questions

    Hello. I have a Canon HF10. I am new to video editing and am just now digging in to learn iMovie, so up until tonight, I've been recording on the camera, and when I need space on the camera, simply moving the entire folder structure on the camera's internal hard drive to a firewire external drive. Now I have iMovie 09 and I'm ready to start using that footage.
    My understanding is at this point I would need to use the "import camera" archive feature. When I do that it asks me to find the archive, so I go to the original folder structure on my external drive and try to select the folder with all the footage (I'm actually unclear which folder this would be as I see AVCHDTN folder, BDMV folder, CANON folder, and there are files and/or folders inside of each of these), but each folder has all its items greyed out and when I try to select any of them iMovie returns the following error:
    Folder is Not a Camera Archive
    Please select a folder that is a camera archive, then click Import.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I ran into this myself. I had to quit and re-launch iMovie to get it to import my archive. You might want to reboot your computer as well.
    When you re-launch iMovie got to the root level of the archive which should be the name of your camera. You might have to re-launch a few times to get it to work.

  • Partial AVCHD Archive - only selected clips - is this possible?

    A have a couple of video cameras with built-in flash memory, and iMovie (8.0.5) will import the clips fine. I want to archive some events to DVD -- but not the entire contents of the camera memory.
    In the Import from Camera box, there is an Archive All button, but I only want to archive some of the clips. Is this possible?
    I also have Toast 10.0.4, but again it seems to want to backup my entire camera memory onto a number of DVDs. I just want to send the raw AVCHD files from 1 event to someone, hopefully on a single disk. Thanks, Jeff

    Ok here is something I just learned and I hope I can describe it correctly. First I have about a year and half of saved mts avchd files before switching over to the Mac completely now. What I could not understand fully was that if I connect my camera to the mac imovie can read the files and import the video fine and quickly but can not do anything with my already saved files. I could use a extra converter but it would take hours instead of minutes. So I played with the archive format and came up with this solution if you want to save just the avchd files as backups or to send to someone who can do the same.
    ok now what I learned:
    On my video camera I made 5 recordings( recorded blank wall) of atleast 4 minutes long (to cover my longest clip saved) and then used imovie to make an archive of it. In the archive folders stream folder I deleted the mts files there. After that I copy the earlier mts (5 at a time) files I recorded in the stream folder and renamed them using the automater for ease, the same numbering the camera used in my case 00000.mts 00001.mts etc... then in imovie import from the archive. It will come up with the correct thumbnails but the incorrect times of the clip, but imovie will import with the correct times as long as the clips importing are shorter then the dummy recorded clips (thats why I made them 4 minutes each) if you try to import clips longer then it will stop short and the clip will get trimmed. Also if you do it this way then you need the same number of clips in the archive as it was first saved or it may not detect correctly in imovie. I also noticed that one of my cameras I needed to move the bdmv folder to the main folder the archive is ( ../volume/camera archive/bdmv/...). You can make your own dummy archive with as many clips as you need, just make sure the same amount in in there when importing. So far it seems to work and alot better then converting and archiving everything in the imovie way for future recordings ( i like to rename and organize my .mts files for backup). That way if you just what certain files saved you can save the mts or mt2s files to dvd renaming files to make easier to locate the ones you want later and have the dummy archive for importing into imovie.
    I hope I explained it good enough. If you have questions it may take a few days for me to reply since I use the library for internet access (no connection at home)
    good luck

  • A question about archive and install

    Recently my system crashed due to a faulty OS instal.
    So, I hauled my G4 to the mac store and they resoved the problem for me and told me to do a archive and instal, and even gave me instructions.
    Everything was going fine untill it came the time to choose which directory to install to... I clicked on my hard drive and a dialouge box popped up saying that it couldn't install older versions of the files over newer versions....
    So now I've hit a dead end.
    How can I continue the install?

    WanderingAimlessly:
    Do you currently have a functioniing OS on your HDD?
    Do you have your computer backed up?
    If your answers are "no" to the first question and "yes" to the second, I suggest you go a completer reformat, zero all data and install.
    Post back with your responses, and we will decide where to go from there.
    Good luck.

  • Toast 7 Question

    Does anyone use Toast Titanium 7 (by Roxio)?
    Is this the right place for a question on Toast?
    I am trying to make a CD that will be able to play slide-shows in DVD players that connect to Televisions.
    I tried first with Toast Titanium 6 and then realized that Tiger is not compatable with Toast Titanium 6. So I plucked down the $70 upgrade to "Element 5", downloaded and installed.
    I can cut a data CD.
    But when I cut a "Super Video CD" with a QuickTime slide-show that I created in iPhoto, it will not play in the DVD player on my TV, nor in the G4 iMac Superdrive.

    Hi, Freddie.
    1. You wrote: "But when I cut a "Super Video CD" with a QuickTime slide-show that I created in iPhoto, it will not play in the DVD player on my TV, nor in the G4 iMac Superdrive."VCD and SVCD (Super VCD) are different formats. SVCDs uses MPEG-2 video compression (encoding). VDCs employ MPEG 1 encoding.
    QuickTime supports conventional VCDs: see "Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Playing a Video Compact Disc (VCD)." With Quicktime, MPEG-2 compression is only available with the extra-cost QuickTime MPEG-2 Component.
    Your home DVD player may also not support the SCVD format. Check the manual that came with the DVD player for the disk formats it supports. For example, my home DVD player supports VCDs but not SVCDs.
    Try burning a VCD instead.
    Note that if you use iDVD to create a DVD of the iPhoto slide show and burn it to DVD-R media, it should play on both Macs running Mac OS X and most home DVD players. See:• "iPhoto 6.0 Help: Exporting a slideshow to iDVD."
    • "iDVD 6.0 Help: Using slideshows created in iPhoto."
    • "iDVD 6.0 Help: Creating an iDVD slideshow."
    For information on viewing VCDs and SVCDs under Mac OS X, see my "VCD and SVCD Players" FAQ.
    2. You wrote: "Is this the right place for a question on Toast?"Technically, no. Roxio has their own Discussion Groups for their products.

  • Toast 9 titanium avchd powerpc

    Hello,
    I'm hoping someone out there can give me a review/feedback regarding Toast 9 Titanium on a powerpc.
    1. Can it really play my AVCHD (*.mts) files? I read the roxio forums and some folks were complaining that the quality was and that the video was choppy. Do you have the same experience -- specifically on a powerpc?
    2. Can it really convert the AVCHD file into a format that can be imported into imovie hd 6? If so about how long would a 10 min movie take to convert?
    thanks.

    I cannot comment on using Toast 9 - but i have had no trouble importing AVCHD clips into iMovie 6 using Voltaic - which converts the MTS flies into Apple Intermediate Codec files. It does take a long time (eg - 45 minutes worth of clips took about 24 hours) - this is on a iMac G5.
    After editing - i hope to export the video back to my old HD camera - in HDV format on mini DV tape (Except i have not been able to try this out yet - due to a problem with very jerky video playback in iMovie since upgrading to QT 7.5)

  • Toast 8 Question

    I just saw that Toast 8 is out and is the only program that will work with the just out TivotoGo for Mac. I still can't seem to figure out how this works. I have a Tivo and a Mac. How do they communicate with each other? We bought the Tivo almost 3 years ago and as far as I know it doesn't have any wireless capabilities. How else do they connect so I can get the Tivo shows on my Macbook and then eventually burn them through Toast 8?
    Thanks!

  • AVCHD Archive Strategy

    I just purchased a Canon Vixia HF100 for personal use. I wanted to back up the AVCHD files prior to importing into Final Cut or iMovie (I wanted to back up the raw files prior to the conversion that takes place upon import).
    My thought was to use Toast 9 do backup to DVD. When I open the AVCHD pane with my camera connected nothing shows up.

    Don't use Toast. Just copy the entire PRIVATE directory to your hard drive. Then if you want to burn them to DVDROM, use the Finder...

  • Recreate AVCHD archive? Which program would you recommend?

    Free is best!

    ClipWrap does not recreate AVCHD camera archives for isolated MTS files; it is useless for that purpose. It can however do two useful things. First, it can rewrap the h264 video clip from inside the MTS file into an m4v container that can be imported to FCPX (unlike the MTS file). This rewrapping doesn't alter the h264 stream in any way.  Alternatively it can transcode the clip from h264 to ProRes, a step that is essential if the MTS contains 1080p60 material. Recreating an AVCHD folder structure is something it can't do.

  • Recovery question using archive log

    HPUX 11X
    Oracle 10.2.0.2
    I have a standby database that the customers want to test the ability to fail over. They also want to test the data integrity of the standby once it's brought on line as the primary.
    I've already told the customer that any writes that they do on the standby during the test time WILL be lost. I plan on doing a incomplete recovery back to a specific sequence number / archive log when the tests are complete.
    My plan is to take note of the current sequence number just before I bring the standby live. When all is said and done, I was going to do a recover back to the sequence number one PRIOR to that one. Then when I place the db back in standby mode, it will sync back up to the primary.
    What I need to know is if this is a good or a bad idea. Should I plan on doing it differently and for what reason.
    Thanks! :)

    Use flashback database to recover the former primary database to a new standby.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/scenarios.htm#i1049997
    Therefore the changes made on standby won't be lost (unless you want to lose them).
    If your databases do not have Flashback Database feature enabled, you can use incomplete recovery instead.
    I think Flashback Database should be your first option.

    The BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ... DELETE INPUT command deletes archived log files after they are backed up.
    This command eliminates the separate step of manually deleting archived redo logs.
    With DELETE INPUT, RMAN deletes only the specific copy of the archived log chosen for the backup set.
    With DELETE ALL INPUT, RMAN deletes each backed-up archived redo log file from all log archiving destinations.
    As explained in "Configuring an Archived Redo Log Deletion Policy",
    the BACKUP ... DELETE INPUT and DELETE ARCHIVELOG commands obey the archived redo log deletion policy
    for logs in all archiving locations. For example, if you specify that logs should only be deleted when backed
    up at least twice to tape, then BACKUP ... DELETE honors this policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmbckba.htm#BRADV89524
    But in ours case it's not honors this policy.
    Only with the FORCE command should this happen. But it is not our case.
    Oracle Docs:
    If FORCE is not specified on the deletion commands,
    then these deletion commands obey the archived log deletion policy.
    If FORCE is specified, then the deletion commands ignore the archived log deletion policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10643/rcmsynta010.htm#RCMRF113
    Alternatively you can do the following:
    Set the commands separately.
    Check this:
    RMAN>  run {
    2> backup archivelog all not backed up 2 times ;
    3> delete archivelog all backed up 2 times to disk;
    4> }

  • Toast Titanium Question

    I have just loaded this software up and have attempted to record onto my first DVD+R disc, but cannot get it to work in my DVD player or even my Mac.....I think this is because I chose the DivX choice in the menu on the left had side.
    Could someone please talk me through how to record onto a disc from the start. The movies I have are in AVI format. DO i just drag to Toast and record as a DVD-Video? I don't wanna keep randomly trying as it will wreck all my DVD's.
    Any help would be very gratefully received.

    Thanks for the answer, I finally got it to work, however when I played it in the DVD player, the sound is not in sync with the actual movie, it plays about 10 secs prior. Any ideas? I put the picture quality up to the best setting, does that make a difference?
