Toast Titanium Burn at 1x ?

I'm trying to use Toast Titanium to burn at 1x, but it only takes 5 minutes to burn a 60 minute project.
I chose either a write speed of 1x or 1xDVD with the same results. (which one is better by the way?)
My media is Prodisc 8x media. I used to have a different media previously, and it worked fine (taking almost an hour to burn). Is it somehow always burning at 8x because of the media? This speed should be a max, not a minimum.
The whole reason I bought Toast was to burn slowly. I would like to burn them as slow as possible because I have seen some quality issues at the current high speed.
Project was created with DVD Studio Pro.
Thanks in advance for help. - Duane

What do you mean "quality"? Do you mean the disks are no good or the video is not what you expected? Burning speed has little to do with the former and nothing to do with the latter. Error correction and verification should be controllable within Toast.
The burning speed is a function of your DVD burner's controls that are available and the prefs for Toast, which I do not use any longer. Try talking to the good folks and the Toast company.

  • Does Toast Titanium 7 allow burning DVD's in code 0?

    I want to burn my iMovie projects in code 0, but Toast Titanium 6 doesn't allow that. I can only choose NTSC or PAL and I can't burn a NTSC iMovie project in PAL either - which I would like to do and vice versa. Being able to burn either to code 0 would solve that problem, but before I upgrade to 7 I would like to know if it gives me that option. Thanks to anyone out there who has the answer.

    Hi Lennart - thank you for correcting my wrong advice:
    Don't worry about NTSC or Pal - that doesn't come into it.
    Yes, of course, iDVD Preferences presents that choice. Yet I had imagined that a DVD disk is a DVD disk and would play anywhere in the world - and that it was merely a hardware issue.
    Thus if I cut a Pal DVD here in NZ, it could not play in USA?
    But presumably a Pal-created iMovie can be burned into an NTSC DVD disk, and be able to play there. I've just never tried that!

  • Trying to burn a file over 700MB using Toast titanium 7

    In windows if i burn a file over the standard size cd disc it will tell me i need to use 2 cd's
    i want to do that on my G5 IMAC and my G4 Powerbook using toast titanium 7 but it just says File exceeds the size of disc - thats all
    what can i do?

    If you are burning a CD with Toast 7 and it is a Data Disk, in the menu that
    pops out to to the left select Mac Only. Once you check that box it should
    automatically burn to as many CDs as necessary. I've included a picture for
    reference.

  • IDVD Burn via Roxio Toast Titanium v6

    I'm using iDVD 5.0.1 on an eMac without an internal DVD-RW - my DVD burining is all done via Toast to an external SONY DVD-RW. I can't work out how to create an iDVD image which I can then drag into Toast to burn. (The shareware floating around which allows a choice of burn destinations from iDVD itself doesn't cover going via Toast.)
    Does anyone have experience of this?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Max now is a good time to buy Toast 7, and use the iMovie project right in that and make a disk image that you can easily burn on that drive.
    You can select DL or not as you like, pick automatic or custom MPEG-2 compression options and of course make an image first and see how big it is and how it looks and operates. It has chapters though rudimentary (time based only) and better templates than Toast 6 (which well, had one basically).
    I find the performance is much faster than iDVD as well.
    Also if you find it made an image say 5 GB , you can either burn that to DL with room to spare, go back and up the compression quality to fit 8.5GB or use the compressor bulit in (was Popcorn's) to recompress that 5 GB to 4.3GB - basically it has way more options and controls than iDVD will ever have.

  • Burn Bin image on Toast Titanium

    Hi
    I ve created a bin image of Windows XP using Toast Titanium 7, however the program refuses to write the image. I also get an error when trying to mount the image file under the toast format.
    Any ideas on what is causing the problem?

    Followed your advice and I made some progress.
    I exported my project from FCE using the Quicktime Movie option and it comes out great. I tried putting in iDVD and putting it on the Dual-Layer Disc setting Project Info and it appears that it will have enough space to come out ok.
    A new problem is that my project on the iDVD playback is being played in fullscreen when its supposed to be played in its original widescreen format. I'm not excatly sure what to do next, especially considering that another video in the same project with the same specifications and formatting is being played in its intended widescreen formatting...

  • I need help with Toast Titanium please!

    Hey everyone,
    I didnt know where to post this so I figured here is good since you're all handy with video apps. I just got my unibody MBP and for some reason, whenever I try to burn something in Toast Titanium or Popcorn, it it stuck in the "Preparing" mode. iDVD has been burning fine, but the others applications are not. Can anyone figure this out?
    Thanks!

    Which versions of those apps are you using and are they compatible with your computer's Intel processor?
    You need at least Toast 7.1 or Popcorn 2.0 to run properly. Even then they might not be compatible with Mac OS X 10.5

My movie is only 2 hours and 15 min. or so; doesn't anythiing compress it down to fit on a Dual Layer DVD? All of the music I layed under it and other such things ate up memory.

  • Toast titanium stopped working

    Recently updated my old Mac Book Pro with the Mac Box Set. I am using an external DVD burner. Yesterday I tried to burn a DVD but Toast Titanium 6 will not start. Tried installing the software that the external unit came with (Toast Titanium 9) but the OS will not let it install.  Is any one having the same problem?

  • Using Roxio Toast Titanium with 550 PowerBook

    Hello eveyone.
    I recently installed Tiger and am now on V. 10.4.7
    My PB has no cd or dvd burner so about 3 years ago, I bought a burner and installed Roxio Toast Titanium 5.1.2. All went OK - until Tiger.
    After the Tiger install, I can't get my Toast to open. This means I can use my burner - an ez quest connected with firewire - to burn a cd from iTunes but I cannot burn any of my iPhoto pics.
    Anyone had a similar problem? How do I fix it?? Should I just buy and install the latest from Roxio - their Media 8 I think?
    Any help would be great!

    Ouch! Well, at least you know you should have.
    Is reparing perms a big thing?
    It's a big thing in that it needs to get done, say like changing your oil. But like the oil, it's not a big thing to do.
    Can I go wrong and make things worse?
    I can't even imagine how. It's a normal, supposed-to-be performed thing.
    Open Applications:Utilities:Disk Utility, select your HD on the left side, click on Repair Permissions at the bottom, wait a few minutes until it's finished, quit DU, and you're all set.
    Also, I'd guess that you don't run Background Maintenance; I'd strongly recommend it (I like MacJanitor because it's so easy and it's freeware).
    Not to worry, this all normal/routine stuff.

  • Blu Ray Workflow: FCP7 to Toast Titanium 11

    Good Afternoon,
    I'm trying to get a grip on the workflow for burning a Blu Ray Disc for a client.
    I'm working in FCP7 - have Roxio Toast Titanium 11 as well as a Buffalo Blu Ray Burner.
    Can anyone provide me a step by step for taking a finished FCP7 project, running it through compressor with the correct settings and then how to take that and create a Blu Ray in Toast Titanium 11 with a menu.
    Much appreciated! Cheers!
    Keith

    From FCP-7, export a QuickTime movie of your finished sequence, Self Contained and Without Conversion.
    Go to the menu File > Export > QuickTime Movie . . . .
    and in the navigation pane that opens make sure Settings is set to Current Settings and Make Movie Self Contained is checked.
    Open Toast 11, click on the Video Tab and from the Drop Down menu choose Blu-Ray video.
    Drag the QuickTime movie you exported from FCP-7 into the Toast Drop zone.
    Select your destination media and buner at the bottom.
    Set up your menu and other options in the right panel. Toast is not known for having great, or flexible, menus but the menu choices they offer are there.
    When done click the Burn button and Toast will properly encode the video, and then burn the disc for use on most set-top Blu-Ray players. Early Blu-Ray players may or may not support home-made blu-ray discs, most players made in the last few years do.

  • IDVD 5 & Toast Titanium 7

    When I drag my iDVD file which ends with, ".dvdproj" into Toast, it tells me that this file is "an unsupported file format and cannot be imported."
    How can I burn my iDVD projects with Toast?
    It's faster to use Toast than it is to use anything else right?
    I just burned a 7 minute DVD using iDVD and it took almost 2 hours. Does it take that long with Toast as well?
    Thanks everyone.

    When I drag my iDVD file which ends with, ".dvdproj"
    into Toast, it tells me that this file is "an
    unsupported file format and cannot be imported."
    A .dvdproj file is just that - a file that contains your iDVD project. It is NOT the final DVD with mpg-2 encoding. You must select File>Create disk image (or something like that)
    How can I burn my iDVD projects with Toast?
    You need to create a disk image (as above).
    It's faster to use Toast than it is to use anything else right?
    No
    I just burned a 7 minute DVD using iDVD and it took
    almost 2 hours. Does it take that long with Toast as
    well?
    When you create a DVD there are two processes involved. The first is encoding - and THIS is the really slow process. When you create a disk image file iDVD will do this encoding. The second is the actual burning to writable media. This is usually much faster than encoding.
    Once you have created a disk image file, if you need multiple copies, you only need to go through through the burning process.
    Apple's Disk Utility (free) and Roxio's Toast Titanium will BOTH allow you to burn a disk image to writable media. And both allow you to select a slow burn speed (like 4x or lower) - this is VERY important for best DVD compatability with players.
    Roxio's Toast Titanium 6, 7 and 8 all use slightly different approaches to burning a disk image to writable media, so be sure to read the manual if you use Toast.

  • Should I invest in Toast for burning video?

    I have FCP Studio 7 and am wondering if I should invest in Toast Titanium Pro for better quality video. I currently burn DVD's in SD quality -using DVD Studio and they are shown on non-blu-ray DVD equipment. Since I shoot the footage in AVCHD I an always a bit disappointed in the quality of the end result.
    I make the project in FCP using Prores422, send to Compressor for best quality 2 pass rendering and then upload into DVD Studio to burn.
    Thank you,
    Sandra

    Hi -
    I use Toast to burn HD material to regular DVD-R blanks in the Blu-Ray format and it works fine. Some issues you need to be aware of are:
    1) You will need to play the disc you create using this method only in a Blu-Ray set-top player.
    2) Not all Blu-Ray set-top players will play "home made" Blue Ray discs, espcially older Blu-Ray players.
    3) Because the storage capacity of a DVD blank is less than a Blu-Ray blank, consequently you will only be able to put shorter length videos in the Blu-Ray format on a DVD blank.
    4) Many people are not overly thrilled with the menu style options you have in Toast. I usually burn the disc without menus, having it start to play automatically on insertion.
    Hope this helps.

  • Roxio Toast Titanium 6.1 cannot see superdrive in MacBook Pro 17"

    Hi Folks,
    My superdrive worked perfectly fine with Toast Titanium 6.1, burning Cd's,Dvd's,dual layer Dvd's without any issues.
    But just recently Toast has informed me that it cannot find a recorder.
    here is the details of my superdrive as listed by System Profiler:
    MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-85J:
    Firmware Revision: FAV1
    Interconnect: ATAPI
    Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipped/Supported)
    Cache: 2048 KB
    Reads DVD: Yes
    CD-Write: -R, -RW
    DVD-Write: -R, -RW, +R, +RW, +R DL
    Burn Underrun Protection CD: Yes
    Burn Underrun Protection DVD: Yes
    Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, DVD-DAO
    Media:
    Media Type: CD-ROM
    Blank: No
    Erasable: No
    Overwritable: No
    Appendable: No
    I am currently trying to get Roxio suipport to resolve the issue but no luck so far.
    I have uninstalled & re-installed the Toast software,repaired permissions,the works but stiil Toast cannot see the Superdrive.
    The only thing I can think of is I installed a recent firmware update for the MacBook Pro & maybe that had something to do with it.
    I also don't think that updating to the latest version of Toast 8 will resolve the issue either.
    Remember that the Superdrive was working just fine with Toast.
    I have searced the froums & apple support documents to no avail.
    The Toast site is not much help either.
    Anybody have any ideas or a similar problem.
    Thanks
    fargione

    My problem has been solved!
    I have carried out a complete re-install of the Os & I am right back up to OS 10.4.10.
    Al the available updates have been installed & Toast 6.1.1 works just fine & sees the superdrive without any problems.
    I think I have worked out what caused Toast to break.
    Sometime back I was advised to run an app called Monolingual.
    It is a utility that removes unecessary language resources from the os & reclaims disk space.
    My advice is to live with the extra language's & avoid Monolingual.
    Once again thank you all for your help.
