When I burn a DVD...

When I burn a DVD from Aperture for friends that do not have a Mac they can not veiw it. How do I burn a DVD for non Mac users?

OK fair enough try this:
Drag the video out of Aperture and drop in on the Desktop. Then open  it in QuickTime Player.
Select File->Export
In the export window select
then burn this exported file to the DVD and see if the PC can play it.

  • When I burn a dvd I get wave on items that have lines in the pictures

    When I burn a dvd in imovie any stills I have that have lines on things like a shirt start to wave.

    that's because the Ken Burns effect (zoom in/out) will play havoc on some colors, stripes, or other designs. You can minimize it by minimizing the effect, but unless you were to invest in professional software, I don't believe you can get rid of it altogether. It can even happen on TV - a reporter wears something that will not show well especially if he moves around and you will get some strange effects.

    Go to the Map mode in your iDVD project and make sure the blue bin at the left is empty.  That's where you drag slideshows to if you want the DVD to open immediately to that slideshow and bypass the menu.

    If there is an item in there drag it out.

  • Why when we burn a DVD from iMovie, does it pause in different places?

    Why when we burn a DVD from iMovie, does it pause in different places?

    Hi
    does it pause in different places?
    During Burn ?
    During Playback of DVD ?
    On Mac ?
    On Stand alone DVD-Player ?
    During Burn.
    What brand of DVD ?
    What type of DVD ? DVD-R or DVD+R or +/-RW - SL or DL
    Did You set down burn speed in iDVD ?
    Free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk. HOW MUCH ?

  • Getting multiple copies of iPhoto slideshow when I burn a dvd - why?

    I just learned how to create a slideshow in iPhoto and struggled through the learning curve to be able to burn it as it appears in iPhoto. I got so excited today when I burned a dvd and it actually played on my TV's dvd player, though it was missing the iDVD theme intro. Then when my slideshow was over, the theme intro played and the entire slideshow played again. In other words, I have at least 2 copies of the slideshow on the disc.
    Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? thanks!

    Hi
    Most common origin to this are:
    Brand of DVD used - NoName, Memorex etc cheap brands might work as Data-DVDs - BUT NOT as Video-DVDs
    Type of DVD used - I only use SL-DVD-R as they also playback on older DVD-players. DVD+R for newer DVD-players. Never ever DVD+/-RW. Dual-Layers usually creates more problems than Single-Layers
    BURN SPEED - Very IMPORTANT factor - I never go faster than x4 - Normally I use x2
    Material used - Video Codec, Photo and Audio file formats
    Video-Codec: StreamingDV, AIC and HDV (I use)
    Photo: .jpg - NO .bmp or other - all converted to .jpg first
    Audio: .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or 44.1kHz (as on Audio-CDs) - NO .mp3, wma etc ailient formats - all converted to ..aiff 16-bit 48kHz or 44.1kHz first
    Free Space: on Start-Up (Macintosh HD) Hard Disk - I never go less than 25Gb when doing Video-DVDs (for SD-Quality Video - if HD material is used 4-5 times more are a safe low level) (Other external Hard Disks - DO NOT COUNT as space here can not be addressed by Mac OS or iDVD for it’s massive use of .temp files)
    Dusty DVD-burner Laser: I use a Cleaning DVD (no liquid but the one with brushes) from time to time.
    Harmed DVD-burner Laser: Easy to do by burning more than three DVDs at a time - I let it rest for 30 minutes till next batch of three DVDs. If this happened - then only a costly repair will help. It will not heal by it self.
    OBS: There are more than one Laser in the DVD-Burner so other functions might work OK as Playback CD/DVDs and even burn CDs. Still being broken.

  • When I burn a dvd, it's really bad quality in black & white

    When I burn a dvd, it's really bad quality in black & white.

    What program are you using to burn the DVD? What is the original DVD content (another DVD disk or movie files -- what's their format?)?

  • SonyAVCHD video looks great in iMovie11 or iDVD7.1.2. When I burn a DVD it's terrible. If I freeze frame I see squares. The picture has poor contrast. I've viewed DVD on my 6-year-old, 24 in. intel 2.16 GHz iMac, and on TV. Help!

    I just bought a very good quality Sony AVCHD camcorder. I also just upgraded my computer from Tiger to Snow Leapord. My iMac is a 6-year-old, 2.16GHz Intel 2 Duo, with a 24 inch screen and 3GB Ram.
    My Sony camcorder HD video looks great in iMovie11 and in iDVD7.1.2., but when I burn a DVD "professional" it looks terrible. If I look at a freeze frame on the DVD I see image made-up of squares. The picture has poor contrast. It looks as bad as poor quality VHS. Do I need to get a new iMac to make this work? Is it possible to make a sharp, clear DVD from AVCHD footage with a 6-year-old iMac like mine?

    That thread helped for a time.  But now it seems as though my computer is back to slow again.  But, some of the jargon is over my head as well.  Not sure I knew quoite everything they were talking about.  But thanks a lot for that, it helped I probably just need to reread it and follow the instructions again.  Thanks so much.

  • Losing audio when I burn the DVD a second time

    When I burn a DVD all is well, but when the system prompts me to insert another DVD, then subsequent ones come up mute.
    Jean

    Create a disk image file of your iDVD project and use that for subsequent burns.
    From within your iDVD project, select 'save as disk image.' The process looks like the burn process, and the encoding takes just as long, but the end result is a disk image file, not a burned DVD disk. You can check the disk image file to see if it plays properly by clicking on it to mount it and then opening DVD Player (found in Applications). If the disk image file plays correctly, all the disks you burn with it will be fine. Be sure you use a good recommended brand of DVD disk such as Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden. Also, select a burn speed of 4x or less.
    See these for creating disk image file and burning from it:

  • My MOV videos do not play when I burn a DVD using iPhoto.

    My MOV movies do not play when I burn a DVD using iPhoto.  I can use the other method with my Mac to burn DVDs but the videos are not good quality like they are in my iPhoto albums.  How can I get better quality in the DVD videos if I am unable to burn a DVD using iPhoto?  I upgraded to the free Mavericks.

  • HT1152 When I burn a DVD from iMovie, it shows up as just a series of folders when playing it back on a TV/DVD player..What is the problem?

    Help!! I am a new Mac user and have Os X Lion.  My son and I are starting to use imovie and have downloaded several video's from his new HD digital Bloggie camera.  I just want to burn a basketball game to a DVD.  So I went into imovie, followed the steps to iDVD and then Burn.  But, when I put the DVD in the TV to play, it just shows a series of Folders.  What is the problem?  I am burning to DVD+R memorex.

    Hi, you posted this in
    Mac OS & System Software > Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard
    You're running Lion and this is an iMovie question.  I've asked it be moved.  It will help if you post in the correct forum in future because it will speed up your getting an answer. 

  • I made a imovie out of a group of photos and added music. When I burned to DVD on iDVD and played back the disc all of the photos were larger than the frame could accommodate and the sides were cut off. I also tried resizing from 16 9 to 4 3 and no better

    I made and iMovie out of a group of photos and added music. When I burned to I DVD the pictures came out to wide to fit into the frame. I tried again by changing the size from 16 9 to 4 3 and it didn't make any difference. Would going to share to browser rather than directly to share to IDVD make a difference?

    What do the photos look like if you play the movie within iMovie?  Sounds like adjusting Ken Burns would help.

  • When I Burn to DVD I get poor video quality.

    I need help with all the steps to ensure I'm doing this the right way when burning my videos to DVD. Here is a list of all my equipment and software:
    OS -Windows 8
    Program - Adobe Premiere Elements 11
    System-
    Processor- Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4430 CPU @3.00GHz 3.00 GHz
    Installed memory (RAM)- 12.0 GB
    System Type- 64-bit Operating Sytem, x64- based processor
    Video Card- GEFORCE GTX 760 2GB GDDR5
    Video Camera- Sony HDR-FX1
    Product Type Camcorder- 1080i
    Progressive scan- Yes
    Camcorder Media Type- Mini DV (HDV)
    Digital Video Format- MPEG-2
    Image Recording Format- JPEG
    I did a sample 10 minute video (with no editing) burned it to DVD and the quality is almost VHS looking when I watch it on a DVD. I've tried many different options and still get the same results. I tried  up-ing the DVD space by purchasing a Dual Layer Double Couche DVD+R but came out the same results. I put the settings ( when burning to DVD anywhere from NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD to Just NTSC_Dolby DVD. I have put the Quality to 'Fit Contents to available space' and Highest Quality with no difference to the burned DVD. I've gone to File/New/Project and changed the settings to NTSC-AVCHD-Full HD 1080i 30 and regular HDV 1080i 30 with no change. There are like 15 different options and really don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please HELP me before I go Crazy!
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Chris

    For your consideration...
    1. HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 11 Capture Window.
    a. Beforehand, set the project preset manually to NTSC HDV HDV 1080i30 via File Menu/New/Project. Before exiting the new project dialog, make sure you have a check mark after Force Selected Project Settings on This Project. Then go back to the Premiere Elements 11 Expert workspace and Add Media/HDV Camcorder.
    or
    b. Do your DVD Data capture, let the program set the project preset. Then verify the project preset via Edit Menu/Project Settings/General. Editing Mode should be HDV 1080i, Timebase should be 29.97 frames per second, and frame size should be 1440 x 1080. The pixel aspect ratio (grayed out) should be HD Anamorphic (1.333). Field Order should be shown as Upper Field First. If that is not the case, then start over and set the project preset yourself manually as described above in "1a".
    Once you get the MPEG2.mpg on the Timeline, we are going to look at two different situations
    a. the DVD-VIDEO results with Right click the video on the Timeline, select Field Options, followed by Reverse Field Dominance.
    and
    b. the DVD-VIDEO results with Moving forward not doing anything with the Field Options.
    Since your source is 16:9, the you want to stay with the DVD-VIDEO widescreen (NTSC_Widescreen Dolby DVD preset in the burn dialog...Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc)
    If you select Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc you will be viewing DVD-VIDEO widescreen format on DVD disc. The frame size is 720 x 480 and is stretched for display after encoding. As I said no where near 1920 x 1080.  My recollection is that it is about 856 x 480. This can be played on the DVD player. Maybe some Blu-ray players if the players specifications provide for that.
    If you select Publish+Share/Disc/AVCHD disc, you will be viewing AVCHD format on a DVD disc. You can set the preset for 1920 x 1080 and thus be viewing 1920 x 1080 on that DVD disc. BUT, AVCHD DVD cannot be played on a DVD player. It needs a Blu-ray player. And even all of Blu-ray players may not play it. It also can be played on the computer if you find a computer player to play it.
    You mention your end results being pixelated. I am wondering if your pixelation is really an interlaced problem.
    Your source is interlaced video with a field order = Upper Field First. The DVD-VIDEO standard calls for field order = Lower Field First. My suggestion above to look at Field Option Reverse Field Dominance goes to that point, reversing the field order. More on that later.
    Let us see the results and then decide what next.
    If you think you want to go Blu-ray, then we can talk about that too. Do you have any Blu-ray equipment now? For the time being, to get the flavor of the higher resolutions on disc, you could make the comparison of your DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD disc versus AVCHD on DVD disc.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    ATR
    Add On...After all of the above, I forgot to mention. Do your DVD work with a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space". The only time you want to leave "Fit Content to Available Space" uncheck is when and if you get a Data Rate error message where you have to lower the bitrate to be able to continue.

  • 16-9 ratio, how  do I keep it when I burn a dvd?

    Hi,
    I have a canon gl2 camcorder. You have a choice of recording in either 3-4 or 16-9 ratio. I recorded in the 16-9 ratio. When I download to imovie, the dialogue there states it is indeed the 16-9 format. so after I edit the movie, I save in quicktime best quality and burn a dvd. When I play it on my tv, I expected it to be the 16-9 ratio. My tv is not a wide screen model. But since I recorded it in the 16-9 ratio and also edited in this format I thought that was what I was going to get, the same thing happens when I use dvd player on my computer. when I rent commercial videos that are in letterbox format, that is what I get on my tv set. How do I maintain this format, is it imovie, quicktime or what?
    thanks
    John

    I save in quicktime best quality and burn a dvd
    That's your problem. You should just drag the iMovie project file into the iDVD window.
    (There is a bug in the export, so the exported video lost its "widescreen" flag.)
    And there is also a menu option in iDVD to make a widescreen DVD.

  • Error 8 when I burn a dvd

    If I burn a DVD in iDVD 5 I get error 8: No additional sense information (0x00,0x00). Can someone tell me what I do wrong.
    Thanks

    I burned a month ago my last DVD without problems.
    But perhaps you're right about the DVD choice, I recently bought new ones.
    I can't remember which DVD I used the last time but I will buy Verbatim today and try it again. I'll let you know...
    And yes, I can play DVD's at the DVD player.
