Unable to create iso from DVD made with iDVD

I (literally just now) created a DVD from iDVD and will be sending it to another location for duplication and distribution for our group. I wanted to make an iso (image) of the disk so that I could have a backup of the disk since it just took 8 hours to render all the data and the DVD will ship across the country in a few hours. I'm worried that once it gets there, some sort of copy protection will prevent the people in charge of duplication from being able to copy it and we'll be up the creek without a paddle. So I guess two questions: Why can't I create an image like the other users posting, and will the duplicator be able to publish our DVDs?

No such thing as a copy protected dvd when burning through your mac. Dvd's burned through iDvd are not copy protected, ever. CSS is normally added at the replication facility. iDvd simply doesn't have the capacity to add copy protection (also known as CSS/ Content Scrabbling).
Where are you sending this burned Dvd to? If it were me shipping the dvd to a distant location, I'd be more concerned about making the dvd in PAL vs. NTSC.
As for making a disc image in iDvd, I'd simply go to the file menu and make the image right to the desktop of your mac.

How create iso from dvd

What's the best way to create an iso file from an installation DVD in 10.8? I want to create one to install Windows 8 on Boot Camp.

Tom Bombaci Jr wrote:
Except that the Windows installation disks don't have dmg files on them.
Correct. You can use Disk Utility to create a disk image. Then convert to ISO.
or
Download a ISO from Microsoft.
p.s. ParallelsDesktop also recognizes ISO.

Why am I getting wavy, distorted video on a DVD made with iDVD?

I made a DVD with iDVD 5 that has wavy, distorted video. It is watchable but you can clearly see that vertical lines are somewhat wavy whenever the camera pans across the scene. An up-down pan doesn’t distort the horizontal lines, however.
The source video file doesn't display this waviness. Also, I created a DVD of the same video using a PC and the resultant DVD didn't display the waviness. The waviness occurs whether the DVD is played on the computer or a TV monitor with a standalone DVD player. From all this I conclude that it has to be a consequence of the iDVD5 burning process.
Here’s some additional information: The PC burned the video from its original MPEG-2 format. The Mac burned the video from a .mov file that I created from the original MPEG-2 file using MPEG Streamclip. (I need to use MPEG Streamclip to restore (actually convert, I suppose) the audio as the source file has AC3 audio that doesn’t play in iMovie or Quicktime.) The resulting .mov file - when played with Quicktime before burning - does not exhibit the waviness, so I don't think the MPEG Streamclip conversion process is at fault.
On the same DVD I also placed a different video from the same source. It doesn’t display any of the waviness that I get from the other video. The only difference between the videos is that this latter video – after the MPEG Streamclip processing - was chaptered in iMovie HD and then exported to iDVD as a .mov file. I’d hate to think that I have to run every video through iMovie to eliminate the waviness.
So is this just an inexplicable defect or is there something that I might do differently to avoid the waviness that I’m getting in this video?
Thanks, Robert

Robert,
To me, the red flag is that you've created a .mov file from Quicktime for import back into iDVD. A .mov file is generally a smaller formatted movie, typically only 320X240 pixels in size. This size movie, by default, would look perfect when played in QT. But, to go back to iDVD or iMovie, the movie must be expanded back to a 720X480 size movie (typically the DV stream that these programs want and need), so expanding will cause all sorts of distortion. Can you go back to your original MPEG2 source movie and get the movie info on it? You should be able to see the original size. If it is something like 640X480 or 720X480 then use QT to create a .DV file. This will maintain the original size.

DVD made with iDVD not playing in DVD players

I have a iMac G5 and iDVD 4. I use FCP to edit. I have made many DVDs from exporting my sequences to quicktime. Then I import that export into iDVD, and this has always been fine. For some reason, my latest project will only play on my computer using this method, not any of my 3 DVD players. What could be causing this? Did I change a setting I'm unaware of? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've watsed a good many blank DVDs from this glitch. Thank you!

I have a similar problem having to do with the menu.
I have a client who needs dvds burned with their logo as a background. When I import a tiff (or any other format) into iDVD4.0.1 on the simplest template available (brushed metal 2) everything burns fine, the disk plays on a computer, but on commercial dvd deck it freezes when you hit play (one unit indicates "pause" on the display). If I remove the graphic from the background, and burn that to disk
, it plays fine.
The iDVD help says you can drag your own photos to a menu, so if this is causing a problem, they certainly aren't aware of it. What bugs me, is why isn't there a "blank" template (or is there one that I've missed)?
BTW this has also happened to me at work two years ago with an earlier version of iDVD. Yet it doesn't happen on my client's version of iDVD (I have a call in to see what version they have). And who do you call when Apple only refers you to forums?
Thanks for any info, and please excuse any ignorance on my part.

Trouble copying a DVD made with IDVD 5

I have several DVD's created with iDVD.
I erased all the original projects. Now I want to make copies and the superdrive keeps spitting them out. The discs will not stay in. I can play them fine on DVD players. I have tried other disks to see if the disk drive is bad and it works fine. Any ideas of what is wrong?

I'm not saying for certain that you do, but you may have a problem with the optical drive.
I am assuming this is the same Mac that you burned them on?

Hi All,
We have issue were user is unable to create SC from internal catalog. User can access the catalog, however when trying to checkout he gets BLANK screen. This issue is with all the items for that catalog.
Please advise.
Thanks,

Hi Sunil,
What is your IE version ? If its IE 8.0 please check SAP note 1511147. This contains settings that are needed.
Please also check the following note:

Please maintain the ISO code of page on the webservice details as UTF-8 and retest. Also try, if you are using BYPASS_INBOUND_HANDLR parameter on the call structure with value = X delete this line and retest.
Another issue is that if the user does not have access to the product category their items will not be added to the SC.
I hope this helps,

Duplicating DVDs made with DVD Studio Pro 4.2.2

I cannot duplicate dvds made with DVD Studio Pro. I could with my prior version but since upgrading, I am unable to. The duplicator says: Source and target size mismatch - or something like that. I have seen only one other complaint about this and they said to burn the dvd to the hard disc and copy from there. This did not work. Same error message comes up on the duplicator. I can't burn all these dvds one at a time!!!!! Any solutions out there?

Welcome to the discussions.
It is also good to include as much information about what you are using to help others see if they can be of assistance. I know it can be frustrating trying to finish up and something goes wrong. Some days many people reply, other times, such as the problem I have with connecting to background process after the last quick update, hardly anyone replies. I hope that someone might be able to offer assistance.
You say you have 4.2.2, not 4.1.2? I have not seen that update, is it for an intel model? I am still using a Dual G4 1.42 with 4.1.2.
Which duplicator are you using? It would be good to include that so those using that brand/model can replay.
Is the DVD you recorded on and the ones used for duplications the same brand/size/type?
While I know this can take a while, in a pinch, such as not, just keep DVDSP fired up and feeding your DVD burner.
I only have to do 6 to 8 copies at a time so I use my DVD burner from DVDSP or save the DVD as a disk image using Toast Titanium 8 and opened it in toast to duplicate via the DVD burner.
Please reply with more information and hopefully others can offer more help.

I can not copy the DVDs that I made with iDVD

I have a strange problem: I can not copy from a DVD that I made with iDVD (my footage, nothing with copyright). When I try to make a copy from the first DVD that I burned I receive the message that i do not have enough privieges. I checked the "Get information" tabs and I see at the end "Only read" (not copy). This was the 1st dvd that I burned with my new G4 with superdrive.
Any idea? Thanks for the help in advance

Where do I download a Windows Server 2012 R2 .iso from, for use with Hyper-v?

Hello,
Where do I download a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard .iso from, for use with Hyper-v?
The only official download I can find is the evaluation version from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2012-r2
Is it recommended to use the evaluation version and then license it to make it a full version, or is there a better official download?
Thanks
Paul

Hi Brian,
I don't personally have an MSDN subscription.
So using the evaluation versions is ok?
With a Windows Server 2012 R2 license, you can have two
Windows Server 2012 R2 virtual
machines, so I assume I can turn evaluation version VMs into full fledged servers?
Thanks
Paul
How did you acquire a Server 2012 R2 license without any installation media? Can you get the installation media from the same source? How did you install 2012 R2 on the host?

Try editing the file and put only the <SOAP-ENV:Envelope> XML into your file.
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><SOAP-ENV:Head
er><edc:transid xmlns:edc="http://www.edc.com">4</edc:transid><edc:cmdid xmlns:edc="http://www.edc.com">50</edc:cmdid><edc:attDataInfo xmlns:edc="http://www.edc.com">.\testdata\FormExample.xml</edc:attDataInf o></SOAP-ENV:Header><SOAP-ENV:Body/></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
i.e remove all the "Part", "Content-type: text/xml", "image.jpeg" stuff.

I am unable to import recording from DVD to iMovie so that I can edit it.

I am unable to import recording from DVD to iMovie so that I can edit it. Any suggestions?

The files on the DVD are MPEG 2 files and need to be converted in order to be usable in iMovie. Streamclip from Squared5 is one option although others are available. Wondershare is one as well. Just Google for mp2 converters and you'll find many.

Hi Srikishan,
Thank you so much for the prompt reply and I have been able to resolve the issue with the hint you gave.
We dont have Arabic language installed on solution manager, but in the RFC destination <SM_<SID>CLNT<XXX>_BACK> the logon language was empty, I maintained that with the default language "EN" and it worked.
once again thanks a lot for the solution.

Disk Utility - create ISO Data DVD image for burning?

Which are the exact options in Disk Utility that I need to select, in order to create an ISO DVD Data image that will be readable by PCs and Macs alike?
I have looked on the web and in the help but am none the wiser due to lack of an explanation of the options
Format: Mac OS Extended (journaled),...,MS-DOS (FAT)
Partitions:Single partition - Apple Partition Map,...,Single Partition CD/DVD with ISO data
If you cannot point me in the direction of some decent documentation, please just tell me which options I need to select to create an ISO Data DVD
Thanks

Try this link.
Basically, you can drag a folder into the list on the left. Then, with the folder selected, click New Disk Image from the toolbar at the top (not sure of the exact wording, but it's something along those lines). Make sure to select ISO from the pop-up menu.
Also try this article to convert a DMG to ISO.
