TS2180 Moving project from flashdrive into IDVD

I am trying to move a project from my flashdrive into IDVD and
it is not working.

Is your "project" which is on your flashdrive an export from an iMovie Project?
You have to export/share the project ( iMovie 8,9 and 11 ) before you can use it in iDVD .

Importing photos from iphoto into idvd

I am trying to import photos from iphoto into idvd for a slideshow. When the photos move into idvd they are not in the same order as they were in the iphoto library. What could be the possible cause of this?? I did go into iphoto and place comments in after the fact. Would that have anything to do with it?

Try this possible solution from acgray on Mac OS X Hints:
I have worked with many users who like to take iPhoto albums and make DVDs of them with iDVD. However, one very annoying bug (feature?) has to do with the fact that when you are in iDVD, it randomizes the sort order of the Photos in your album. Not only that, but it is painstaking and time consuming changing the order in iDVD.
My solution..
Select All in the album in iPhoto you want to use in iDVD as a slideshow. Then use File -> Export -> File Export. The secret is to select "Use Album Name" as this will rename the images in sequential order, based on the order that you put them in. Save them in their own new folder somehwere easy to find (ie on the Desktop).
Then, in iDVD, either drag, or I believe you can import the entire folder into the Slideshow project window, and voila! your slides are in order. I believe you can throw away the folder with the exported images as they should now be saved into the Project, but don't quote me on that.

Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them. Report back with the results.

Trouble moving projects from one computer to another

In the prospect of clearing up space, I am moving projects from my hard drive to an external. In order to make sure things are moving properly I open up a project from the external onto another computer, different from the one I moved the projects off of. When I open up the project, part of the original footage (.MTS file) does not show up in the timeline. The blue rectangle that represents the footage is striped. When I open up the exact same project onto the original computer from the external everything is fine.
Also, when I was opening up a project from the external to the other computer the "Locate Media" pop up appears wanting me to link all the media, but all the media has been checked off, as if all the media has already been found. Why does it do this?
Thanks,
Josh

Hi Josh,
Check this out: Moving projects to another computer: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1BF3BAAB-A930-44e3-8DFA-50D5C58A1A1Aa.h tml#WS3D22F379-B6C7-4d8c-9548-26AA3E1EA74F
Likely you have some of the MTS file structure missing. The best way to move projects, IMHO, is to use the Project Manager.
Thanks,
Kevin

Problems sharing project from iMovie to iDVD

I understand that in order to share my project from iMovie to iDVD, I must go to Share > iDVD. I did this, then began adding a main menu and other details to my project in iDVD. Then I went to view the project. I discovered some errors I had made while editing the project in iMovie, so I quit iDVD and went back to iMovie to make the corrections.
After I fixed my project, I went back to Share > iDVD to discover that iDVD had been grayed out. I have already tried:
1. Restarting the computer
2. Duplicating the project
I have the latest versions of all the software (just bought my MacBook over the holidays). Help, please.

Hi,
I am having the same problem with imovie - did you ever resolve this problem?
Thanks

Quick Question (re:exporting from iMovie into iDVD)

Hello everyone!
I just have a quick question for you all... (I want to see if this is normal - I'm on a deadline and this is kind of freaking me out)
So, we have a 20 minute or so video in iDVD. It plays fine, etc etc. The goal is to burn it to a DVD.
I used the "Export -> to iDVD" function in iMovie, which launched iDVD.
But here is the weird thing: nothing comes up in iDVD. It doesn't make a new file, doesn't give me anything... it is just open, waiting for me to create a new project to work with.
YET, if I look in the Activity Monitor, I do see that EncoderServer (using 123% CPU) and ThumbnailServer (both iDVD processes) are running.... but shouldn't iDVD have told me it is working or that it is dealing with data?
This is very un-"apple". I totally would have expected a progress bar of some sort in iDVD telling me it is working or something.... or is something wrong and I should try to export it in a different way?
(I guess the underlying question is: when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)

Hi Matt!
when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)
Yes, and it's instant.
What you should see is iDVD opening and asking you to create a new project, It will suggest naming it the same as the iMovie project.
There are reports that exporting from Imovie to iDVD can produce problems. What I do is save the iMovie project and close iMovie. Open iDVD, create the new DVD project, then go the File menu in iDVD, scroll down to Import, and in the side menu select Video. This open your Movie Folder, wherein resides your iMovie project. Select it and it imports into iDVD in a flash.
Remember: iMovie projects go in the Movies Folder, iDVD projects go in the Documents folder. Change that, and they get very confused and unhappy.

Can't get a project from iMovie to iDVD to burn

I did this once before when I was making a test DVD and it worked very simply. I shot about 50 min of video with my camera, downloaded it into iMovie and burned it to a CD-R from iDVD. It played back perfectly on my DVD player. Now that I'm trying to do it with a 2 hour video I shot, I cannot figure out how to get the (3 part) movie from iMovie to iDVD to burn? It all seemed obvious the first time and now nothing is working. I have the almost 2 hour video saved in both my Event Library and Project Library but cannot figure out where to go from here. Help!

Problem in moving project from Old Sol Man 3.1 to New Sol Man 4.0

Hi All,
I am trying to move a project from solution manager 3.1 version to a new solution manager 4.0 version. I followed the below steps:
1.Slected and transported the project using solar_project_admin tcode and created the transort requests in the old sol man version 3.1.
2.Copied the cofile and datafiles from old sol man and kept in trans directory of new Sol man 4.0 version at OS level.
3.Imported the requests into the new Sol Manager 4.0 successfully
4.When I tried to open the imported project it told me to run the "solman_log_comp_mgr program" to convert the project to the central logical components. I just did it and it went well.
I can see the project and do see the document types but no document names and getting all sorts of error messages when I tried to open these documents. Also I dont see the logical components under system landscape.
Before importing, I just have configured servers/hosts, databses and all the components of system landscapes in the new solution manager.
I request you to help me solve this issue. I also would like to know whether i followed proper procedures that i listed above? If not please suggest what procedures I should have follwed.
Thanks in advance.
Aravind Serikar

Hi Aravind,
to transport a project from 3.1 to 4.0 I would not use SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN to "migrate" a project. There for we developed SOLAR_MIGRATION there you can transport system landscape info, also you can transport projects. You should only transport system landscape info if in 4.0 SMSY is EMPTY. To transport projects you have only to specify your project and define a local folder. In this folder we store a few important information. Then all information will be collected in a batch job and automatically exported. Then you have to copy the data file and the cofile into the new trans folder. BUT do NOT forget the i-file. In the folder cofiles you will find a i-file, because we export knowledge warehouse content. This file is important, if you forget it you will get a return code 8. You do NOT have to add the files in the import buffer, we will do this automatically. To import the project, you have to call SOLAR_MIGRATION in SolMan 4.0 there you have to select import, then specify the folder with the few important information. We upload the info and start the import. That is it

uDo

Moving Project from Final Cut Pro X Trial to full program

Im currently running a trial copy of FCP X and will likely buy it. Once I've purchased a copy from the app store, does it recognise the trial version and make that a full version or is it a seperate app (as I suspect).
If its the second one as Im guessing it will be, is there an easy way to transfer a project from the trial version into the main app.
Apologies if this sounds like a dumb question, but I need to know the answer

Sorry I've found an answer to this on another post, I did try and search for it but it only appeared when this one was posted!
Can't find a way to delete this, but thanks in advance if you were about to help.

Moving project from one VSO to another VSO and transferring ownership

Hello,
I want to understand if we can move a project from VSO owned by one company to VSO owned by other company.
also is there any risk of moving and any data would be lost?
Is there any procedure that i need to follow and take care
Kindly assit.
Regards
Abhijeet

Hi Abhijeet,
If you want to move team project from one VSO account to another VSO account, then you can use the tools that Vishal mentioned above. If you want to move Visual Studio projects under team projects to another VSO account, then you can unbind Visual Studio
to source control and add to team project in another VSO account.
For changing the VSO account ownership, you can check this
page for more details.

Audio drops when movie exported from iMovie into iDVD

Hi there,
I am a problem which I can't seem to fix.
I have created a 7 minute long slideshow in imovie with MP3 files from iTtunes embedded. The video and audio are fine when exported as a MOV file (and within iMovie itself). But when exported into iDVD for burning, the audio drops out completely after 3 and a half minutes.
I've tried updating iMovie, iDVD etc., deleting encoded assets as it says to do here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24043?viewlocale=en_US
to no avail.
Does anyone have any tips? My friend's wedding is on Saturday!
Thanks so much.
RR

Hi
A. I do not use "Share to iDVD" - BUT "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (not HD or other res.) - Works much better.
B. When did it hang ?
a. On Export from iMovie to iDVD
b. When DVD is played on DVD-Player
If last one - then
• What brand of DVD did You use (Yes it matters)
• What type of DVD
• Free Space on Start-Up hard disk - How much
• Burn speed - did You set down this - I do to x2 or x4
Yours Bengt W

How do you import movie projects from Facebook into iMovie on an iMac?

I have an edited movie project that was 17 mins long on my mini iPad. Because it was over 15 mins long I couldn't share it into iMovie theatre on my mini iPad. So my father suggested to share it to Facebook where (we thought) we could download it from there into iMovie on my iMac. But it didn't work. I put the link onto to my desktop, and from there, I tried to to add the link into an iMovie video tab but a little window cam up and said(and I quote): "This file will not be imported. It is not compatible with iMovie."
So...
HELP!
HOW DO YOU MAKE MY MOVIE PROJECT COMPATIBLE WITH IMOVIE?????

Thanks for getting back with me so promptly. It has taken me this time to connect with the proper people to find out the information you requested.
The camera used to film the class was a Panasonic AG-HMC40P, owned by a local cable TV station; they use Kodak video encoding software, and a SD card was used to store the video. The file extension is .mts, and the mime file is MPEG 2 transport. He said I probably need an AVCHD converter, and the Mac app store lists 8 of those options, 4 free and 4 for up to $9.99. He said I'll also need a converter for later plans of posting on YouTube or on the website, and while some of those in the app store might work for the later needs, he knows one app called "Compressor" that would work for the uploading later. He also suggested I could try renaming the .mts file to .MP2T, but he wasn't sure that would work.
They don't work with Macs at the studio, but I had thought I could have some lessons there in editing, and apply what I learned to my iMac and iMovie.
First, though, I have to be able to see it and review it!
Thanks again!

Everything about the movie formats change going from FCP into iDVD.

I made a few movies and I simply want them on a DVD. I convert them into QT movies and everything looks great. When I move the files into iDVD, it squishes the actual movie into 4:3 even though the original QT movie is 16:9 and iDVD is set up for 16:9 and the quality is horrible. I check the "Project Info" and my 3.1GB file has shrunk down to a 376MB file. This has happened with the last two movies I made. I'm really getting frustrated. Help!!

He might also need to use Anamorphizer. See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=13023833&#13023833

Moving Slide Show from iPhoto into iDVD does not capture music

I have created several slide shows in iPhoto. I recently photographed a wedding and created a slide show set to music from my iTunes playlist. When I sent the slideshow to iDVD it picked up the transitions, timing, etc., but did not pick up the music. I am at a loss, as I have tried to drag and drop the music and that won't work.

Click Here
First double click where it say's slideshow (assuming you have already added your photos to iDvd). If you haven't then see the link and instructions below.
Now insert the audio cd, open it, and drag & drop the audio file directly to the slideshow audio well as in the above example.
http://www.wonderhowto.com/software/apple-idvd-video/
Adding sound to a slideshow
Adding a soundtrack to a slideshow can enhance the mood or tone of the slideshow, provide information, or tell a story. You can use a song or entire playlist from your iTunes library, music you composed in GarageBand, and even a voiceover you recorded in GarageBand or some other application. You can also use any audio files that QuickTime supports (including AIFF/AIFC, Audio CD, AAC, MP3, WAV, and MPEG-4).
If you add audio to your slideshow, you can’t set the slideshow to advance manually.
To add a soundtrack to a slideshow:
Double-click the button for your slideshow on the DVD menu to open the slideshow editor.
Click the Media button to open the Media pane, and then click Audio.
Click GarageBand to find songs in GarageBand, or iTunes to find music in your iTunes library.
Drag a playlist or a song from the Audio pane to the audio well (shown below) in the slideshow editor.
You can also drag audio files from another folder on your hard disk or from a connected server to the audio well. The audio well icon changes from a speaker to one that corresponds with the type of file you added.
The slide duration is automatically set to “Fit to Audio” to ensure that the slideshow and soundtrack finish at the same time. If you want to manually change how long each slide stays onscreen, choose the number of seconds from the Slide Duration pop-up menu.
When you do this, the slideshow and music may become out of sync, so it’s important to preview the slideshow to make sure you like it. Click the Preview button at the bottom of the iDVD window, which brings up the iDVD remote control. Click Exit in the remote control to return to the slideshow editor.
Click the Return button to exit the sideshow editor.
If the Slide Duration pop-up menu is set to “Fit to Audio,” and the music is too short for all the slides and transitions, iDVD sets the slide duration to the smallest duration above 1 second that allows it to play or repeat the song completely.
If you add a playlist to the audio well, the songs play in the slideshow in the same order they appear in the playlist. If you want to change the order of songs, do that in iTunes and then add the playlist to your DVD again.
If you add movies that have audio to your slideshow, you can hear this audio when a movie is playing in the slideshow. If your slideshow has a soundtrack, the soundtrack fades out while the movie is playing so that the movie audio can be heard. This is a default setting (”Duck audio while playing movies”) in the slideshow editor, controlled in the Settings dialog.
To delete the audio from a slideshow, simply drag the music icon out of the audio well. To replace the existing audio, drag a new song or playlist into the audio well.
