Why are my pics mixed up after burning a DVD??

I am new to Mac, and new to burning DVDs on my computer. When I tried to burn a DVD using a burn folder, the pics in various events were completely mixed up, even though I drug the separate event folders from iPhoto to the burn folder. Events, or folders, were eliminated. Every event was "mixed". Next, I tried burning only one event from the "burn command" within iPhoto. Pics within this single event were also completely shuffled...not in their original order. How do I get my pics to copy in their shown order? Also, burning from iPhoto must require me to merge all events? (Can't add other events to the same DVD). Brought back over 300 photos from Puerto Rico. My only "burns" show us crossing the island every which way, back and forth! HELP....

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. When you burn any files to a disk and view them in the finder they will always be listed alphanumerically. So you will have to rename them in iPhoto and export them to the desktop using the title as the new file name. Use the Photos->Batch Change menu option. The will be retitled and eventually renamed when exported to text - 01.jpg, text - 02.jpg, etc. Once renamed they will be listed in that alphanumerical order when viewed by the system on a disk or in a folder.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Grainy pics in video after burning to dvd

I bought a new computer and now have windows 8. I bought a new premere Elements 11 because my version 9 didn't work. In the past I have done a lot of videos with slide shows and videos on the same dvd. I tryed doing the pictures in organizer and the pics didn't fit. Then when I selected frame fit in video the pictures got very grainy. I then looked into it and it said not to have the frame fit checked so I unchecked it. Then the pictures did not fin in the frame of the video. So then I tryed doing the slide part of the show in Movie maker and save it and re insert it. It looks terrible. I have don't this for years i movie maker and my old elements and the videos with the slide shows looked great once I burned them to a dvd. I don't know where to go to find out how to do this. The slide show looks great on the computer screen but once you burn to a dvd it looks so pixilated and grainy. Help

t us begin.
Given you have Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 8 64 bit.
1. What video, photos, music are going into this project and how do you intend to export your edited content for others to view it....to a file save on your computer hard drive for play back with a computer player or burn to disc DVD, AVCHD, or Blu-ray?
I have several different pictures all jpegs and videos from different cameras all different sizes. I have figured out how to resize thepictures in the CS3 bridge program. I burn them to DVDs for dvd players
We need to know this information so that we can set up the project correctly.
a. What are the pixel dimensions of the photos and how many of them are there? Are these in jpg, .psd, tif, raw, formats.
all different but I did resize them
b. What are your video properties...video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, aspect ratio 4:3 or 16:9, file extension. If you do not know, you can get that information from a properties readout from the free MediaInfo (tree view)
http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
this I don't understand and will look at the above link as you suggested
or, if you give me the name of the camera that these videos came from and the setting that you used, I will try to figure out your video properties.
I have cannon camcorder and other videos from friends which I am not sure so I will look at the above link
c. Are you going to use narration, soundtrack in your project.?
yes I add music and some are tracks from audasity that I cut from other videos and some are MP3s and some WMA
Premiere Elements 11 takes over the role of setting the project preset for a project. Sometimes it does it OK, sometimes not. That project preset setting directs the program to set the correct space in the Edit Mode Monitor for your particular video. So, you can see how video properties and project preset settings are so important to setting up the project.
I have issues trying to edit video because it jumps and the sound continues but the video portion stops so that makes it so difficult to try and edit clips
Please indicate if you wish to proceed:
a. Create an Elements Organizer 11 slideshow and transfer it to Premiere Elements 11 for completion
or
b. Use only Premiere Elements 11 workspace to create, edit, and export the project.
Let us start here and expand into a more detailed step by step based on your answers to all of the above.
Along the way, please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.

I am so grateful for your help. Thank you so much

Why are images on page blinking after the OSX 10.9.3 update

Why are images on page blinking after OSX 10.9.3 update on 5/21/14?

I have finally been able to get the strobe effect stopped. I've restarted at least 7 times and each time I got the light grey screen with the darker grey apple and the spinning wheel, but not the log in box I used to get before the 5/21/14 update. But I called my son and he did some research and told me to hold down the Shift key and type in my password, even if it didn't appear in the log in box. It worked and the log in box appeared and I was able to type in my password. After doing this for each of the 7 times, on my last attempt it appears the strobe effect has been weeded out. Thank God - I thought I was going blind with it affecting every screen I was on.
I hope this will be of help to someone.

Slideshow shaking after burning to DVD

I have created a DVD containing a video and a slideshow. After burning the DVD and dropping it into my DVD player (actually two different DVD players -- different ages / brands), I notice that while the video is steady and plays fine, I am getting shaking of slides in the slideshow. The shaking is slight, but very noticable. In fact, at times the shaking looks more like a slight bounce (up and down) of the slide, almost evenly spaced in time (i.e. every slide gets a slight bounce). I have tried burning another DVD (burn another), and now I'm starting the burning process from the beginning, so that the rendering can happen again.
I am burning off my Powerbook's superdrive. Has anyone experienced this, and/or do you have any ideas why this might be happening?
Brad

TV - let's talk NTSC - sends one frame of information every 1/30 sec. To minimize flicker, each frame contains two fields of information that are interlaced and transmitted at 1/60 sec. In a moving image this eliminates the 1/30 sec flicker. You will see the interlacing when you make a screen capture of a video image with motion - items in motion will appear as 'teeth on a comb' because the two fields are time separated by 1/60 sec.
Now lets talk your still images. Lets say each image is displayed on your TV screen for 10 seconds. During that ten seconds, your screen is constantly switching back and forth between two separate field images. Every 1/30 sec a field (lets call it the even field) is displayed followed by a different field (lets call it the odd field) 1/60 sec later.
Keep in mind these two fields each represent 1/2 of your original image - or every other line of your image (that's why they are said to be interlaced).
If there in no fine detail, the even and odd fields will be the same - but if there IS fine detail, the two fields will be slightly different. Since they are slightly different (not noticable in area without shap detail) the eye will detect the flicker on a TV set that has interlacing. A computer display (usually) is not an interlaced display, so there is no flicker.
Note that THIS IS NOT A FAULT of iDVD! It's one of the problems of a system like NTSC video that uses interlaced video fields.
I had suggested slightly blurring your image - the point is to make the even and odd fields exactly the same so there will be no flicker.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - it is possible to have a still image that is too sharp on a DVD!
Note that if you eliminate the flicker on a TV set, the image will look slight soft on a computer monitor. Which is important to you - a TV set or a computer monitor?
very strange.
No, it's not strange when you understand what's going on, is it?
BTW, digital images taken in low light level conditions can have lots of noise (that looks like film grain). This noise can REALLY make a TV image shimmer because there are major differences between the even and odd fields.

After burning a DVD one or more of the scenes wont play?

Adobe Premier 11 - After burning a DVD one or more of the scenes wont play, the scene is showing and highlights but wont play...this has only recently just started to happen. I thought it may have been the physical DVD disk issue, but have tried others and same thing is occuring?

Does iTunes let you burn CDs even though you have installed iTunes 8? There are many users - me included - who have lost the ability to burn CDs after we installed iTunes 8. I am curious to learn what may be different about your settings versus those of us who are being adversely impacted. Do you know what the UpperFilters and LowerFilters are in your registry for disc burning?
Thank you.

Why does the Video looks Pixelated after Burning DVD

In IDVD when I preview the video it looks great, when I burn the DVD it comes out very very pixelated. I've changed the preferences from Best Performance to Best Quality, and the project properties as well I've done the same. Does anyone know why this is happening?
I'm using 16:4 aspect ratio Video Size is 1280x720
Help

How are you viewing the DVD you created - on a computer or on a TV?
In IDVD when I preview the video it looks great
The preview uses your original content on your hard drive and is simply designed to allow you to see if the 'flow' (sequences, menus, etc) are what you wanted.
In addition, although iDVD 'supports' HD, it only supports it in the context of current specifications - not the new HD DV world that has two competing HD DVD formats.
This means your 1280x720 content gets downsized and compressed to fit on a 720x480 DVD. The video must be 'expanded' to play on a HD set.
BTW, your aspect ratio is 16:9 and NOT 16:4. 16:4 would REALLY be widescreen! I haven't seen THAT spec yet.

I think you have to re select them in in iTunes.

Why cant I finalize a cd after burning ?

why cant I finalize after burning a cd???

When you put a CD into your CD drive on the computer, does iTunes see it? It should appear automatically.
If it doesn't appear on the main screen automatically, then if you have the Sidebar on, look for it on the left, under Devices, which appears under Store. If you do not have the sidebar on, click on the drop-down menu in the top left corner of iTunes and click on the CD icon. Can you see it now?
Once you see it, click on the Import CD option on the right-hand side of the iTunes window.

Hello, I am have problems with coruption of the photos in a slide show after burning the DVD in iDVD. This coruption does not always appear when you preview the project. I have slowed down the burn rate to 1X and kept the quality to professional.

I am having a great deal of problems with Data coruption in slide shows after I have burned a DVD in iDVD. I have changed burn rate from best to 1X with no difference in the coruption. I have the quality set to professional with no improvement. The size of the project is near 3.95, so it should fit on a single layer burn. Should I use either iMovie to create the slide show or "Photo to Movie"? Also, can anyone comment on how I preserve the highest quality picture resolution with a slide show? If I do use iMovie or Photo to Movie, the file size should exceed the 4.2 size so, will I have to buy new DVD's which are capable to handle the double layer burn and upto 8 GB? What DVD's are recommended? Any preferred brand? Are there problems with burning with double layer? I read on this blog of numerous problems.

DVDs are LOW resolution by today's standards - only about 0.3 megapixels - so there is no way they your images on a TV set will look "High Definition". See Preparing images for iDVD slideshows at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/6675.html for recommendations on image sizes to use. Using larger images won't give you better quality, andf in some cases, will lower you image quality because the Quicktime resizing that occurs isn't the best.

After burning to dvd, using idvd, movie stops on frame but audio continues

After creating imovie which works perfectly, and also after trasferring to idvd works perfectly, i have problems when playing back dvd after burning to disc. The movie stops but the audio continues. I altered the clip but same thing happened in next clip after next burn. I don't think its a corrupt clip, but maybe something to do with WHEN it occurs in the movie. Any suggestions? After 4 goes and many hours burning I am stumped!

Hi Tomma1
And welcome to apple discussions. It's good you chose to use 16 bit audio for all of your source material. And assuming this is accurate info .... From what I can tell, you are doing nearly everything correctly. However let me ask you a few questions.
1. Are you using the boot volume (the hard drive where iDvd and Leopard are actually located) to encode your dvd (yes/no)?
2. More importantly, does the disc image also go out of sync when played thru apple's dvd player app? or does it only happen on the burned dvd-r?
3. Are you using Verbatim Dvd-R or an alternate brand? if it's the latter, then for troubleshooting purposes while on this forum; please use Verbatim Dvd-R. (it helps us eliminate additional / possible variables). Thereafter feel free to use the media that works best for you and your mac.
4. Have you tried an alternate encoding setting other than pro quality setting? and do you get the same results?

Unsupported format after burning on DVD Player

I burn many discs on iDVD and always do it the same way - I have found that a few of the discs are unable to be read on my player after burning. So some work fine and some cannot be read in the Player. I get the message "Unsupported Format" on my player. Any suggestions?

If iDVD didn't have sound before you authored the DVD, you won't have sound after the DVD is created. Did you create a self contained Quicktime movie out of your editing system before importing into iDVD? Did the Quicktime file have sound in the Quicktime Player? Here's an article I wrote about transferring your HD footage to DVD. You need to break the process up into steps to avoid problems.
