Works in Simulator, doesn't work in Mac DVD player

Never seen this before--the Simulator actually works fine, all links and menu calls are flawless. The Video TS in the Mac DVD player, however, menu calls and a couple of links do not work.
The dvd should be fine, I burned one yesterday and all of this stuff was fine on the disk, just had to go back and make a couple of changes today.
Anyone seen this before?

I have seen this kind of thing happen before. You should definately try deleting and old builds when you compile. A couple times i had to delete the parse files and let the project reparse to get the dvd to behave properly after the build.
sometimes i could only get the project to work by deleting the offending menus and rebuilding and relinking them.

  • Subtitles Work in simulator but are wrong in Apple DVD player

    OK I have used scripts to set one of two subtitle tracks (French or English) and another script to jump to a play once or a looping version of the video track. One menu selects the subtitle language and another menu selects the single or loop play option.
    In the simulator it all works as expected, I can see that the SPRM and GPRM values are correct for the functions I have set. The SPRM 2 values are correct for the subtitle tracks and they are copied to a GPRM register so the correct language slideshow is played before the video track.
    However when I do a build and play that in the Apple DVD player only the English subtitle appears no matter what language is selected. The correct language slideshow is played for either language selected but I always see the english subtitles when it jumps to the video.
    Would this be a problem with the Apple DVD player software or could there be a problem with some of my scripting?
    I have used the Set System Stream command to select the subtitle tracks and the Set GPRM and Compare commands to jump to the correct language slideshow.
    Any advice gratefully received.
    Regards, Russell

    Hi Russel
    After endless hours of trying to work around the same problem you have, I found the solution. The problem has to do with the script. For some strange reason the scripts become corrupted. I found out that the problem was corrected when I made a new script and connected the buttons to the new script. Hope they at apple find time to correct this problem in the future.

  • Pen pressure simulation doesn´t work anymore.

    Hi everybody, my pen pressure simulation doesn´t work anymore. I am a pc user and have cs6 extended 64bit an a wacom cintiq 21ux with the newest drivers. By clicking stroke path, the path have over all the same thickness. But it should be thin at the begining and the end. Can anybody help me, please?

    In the Stroke Path dialog you have Simulate Pressure checked and in the Brush panel under Shape Dynamics>Size Jitter>Control you have Pen Pressure selected?
    You don't need a pressure tablet for the above operation.

  • Airplay Mirroring and the Mac DVD player not working

    Has anyone else experienced issues trying to airplay mirror the mac dvd player?  When I attempt to play a dvd while airplay mirroring is turned on the dvd player window just shows the checkerboard pattern and no video (this is on both the laptop screen and the tv screen).  If I take airplay mirroring off the dvd displays properly.

    I had this same problem, and i read that it has to do with DRM. Even DVDs you make your self wont work because the DRM is set on the DVD player it self. You can use VLC and it should work, it worked with me. Anyways good luck.

  • My camera is not working. the app doesn't work

    Hi dear, My camera is not working. the app doesn't work: I'can't open the app either. It only works using skype, facing me. On the correct side is frozen. tks, bye, Federica

    Have you tried force quitting the Camera app? http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If that fails:
    Try doing a hard reset: Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears. If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new. If that doesn't solve the issue, the device may need service.
    Follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Good luck

  • It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player

    I burned a DVD, It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player...why?

    still am trying to figure out how to burn at a slower speed, I see no optiond on iDVD.
    You need to create a disk image out of iDVD, then burn. See below.
    Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/18.html
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

  • Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    ,Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    Get the Apple USB Superdrive. It is available on the Apple store page of the Apple web site. Just look under storage on the left hand column under accessories for the Mac.  $79.  I have one since I have a lot of DVD's and CD' s. I burn DVD's made from movies created with iMovie.  Works fine. You may be able to find one cheaper at Other World Computing.
    BTW, you can expect that future computers will not have optical disk drives. This is definitely true for Apple and I suspect other mfgrs will also as we move more into streaming video and downloading of apps rather than selling CD/DVD versions.

  • IDVD slideshows crash Mac DVD Player

    So, I created my movie in iMovie, exported it to iDVD 8, and then I added two slideshows.
    One slideshow has 110 pictures and the other slideshow has about 12 pictures.
    Both slideshows play perfectly in iDVD preview mode and on my Panasonic DVD player.
    But, when I try to play either slideshow on my MacBook Pro, both slideshows crash the Mac DVD Player.
    I'm very frustrated with this. You would think that a DVD I create on my Mac can at least play on my Mac!
    Any help will be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    It's nice to know that someone is seeing a similar problem...misery
    loves company!
    I've been creating slideshows in iDVD by dragging and dropping pictures
    from iphoto, and the slideshows work great in the iDVD preview, on
    my Panasonic DVD player, and my Playstation 2. But, the DVD crashes
    the Mac DVD Player EVERY time. I've have problems with the DVD Player
    in previous release, so this wouldn't surprise me. But, it would be nice
    if the player worked with DVDs created by Apple's own software.

    Hi there, I've just installed iLife 08 on my iMac 20" 2.16, OS 10.4.10 with all
    the updates through software update and I get the same problem before even
    burning a disc! Any slideshow exported to iDVD from iPhoto makes the programme
    bug out when you use the iDVD preview. Same photos dragged into iDVD to make the
    slideshow there work fine. Also tried exporting quicktime from iPhoto and
    importing into iDVD that way - also causes the crash (I don't even get a 'quit
    unexpectedly' message) - there's obviously some problem with quicktime.

  • "Not permitted" access to DVD menu once DVD starts playing --Mac DVD player

    Hi,
    DVD works fine on standalone DVD player, but when played on an internal Mac DVD player, it won't allow me to stop the disc and go to the menu once it has started playing. It says "Not Permitted." I've tried a couple different macs.
    I made my video in FCP5 with chapters and exported as MPEG2 via compressor to DSP 3.0.2. I need the chapters to work correctly on a Mac DVD player as it is an instructional video which will accompany all the Mac Media Carts that have been purchased for our school district -- it has to play correctly on the included laptops.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    When you press STOP in the DVD Player, the DVD stops, no longer running. That's the reason that when you try to press MENU appears the Not Permited message: no way to go to the menu because the DVD is not playing.
    That's the normal behaviour of the DVD Player. I think that's the way that thinks works in every DVD player . . . "I think".

  • HT2499 how to get mac dvd player not to play all and stop at each title?

    how to get mac dvd player not to play all and stop at each title

    Play all chapters, i mean.
    I have a DVD and I would like to just play a chapter, and discuss it, without the next chapter automatically starting. Usually DVD players have the "Play all" you can turn off and on...but I don't see it with the Mac player.
    OS 10.4.

    Thanks so much!

  • Digital noise in Logic after using Mac DVD player

    I have Logic Pro 7.2, a dual 1.8 G5 with OS 10.4.7, 3GB of RAM, and loads of hard drive space. Every time I open a song in Logic after having watched a DVD using the Mac DVD player, all the instruments, both midi and audio instruments, just sound like static. If I trash all the Logic preferences and start over it clears it up but who wants to reset their preferences every time. Thanks, Steve.

    Thanks to the two who have replied so far to my question. I'll check that out. By the way, I'm new to this, and I've got 67 messages from "Apple Discussions Subscriptions" since I posted this question. Can someone tell me how not to receive those messages. Thanks again, Steve.

  • MAC DVD player stops networks connections...no answers in Safari.

    This is a constant and repetitive error.
    Everytime that I play the any DVD in the DVD player (application version 5.0.3, system version 5.0.6) Safari goes down,. there is no answser if I continue browsing in Safari.I am connected via Airport, and there are no other users browsing -access by ethernet card-
    If I remove the DVD and quit DVD player my network connections are restarted, and safari responds ok.
    So I can not browse in safari or access internet if I am runing the MAC DVD Player...
    amazing, no?

    I have the same problem.
    Apparently, the "Digital Out" channel cannot be shared by multiple running applications, the first one starting takes it and keeps it. You have to stop it to allow an other (single) application to use it instead.
    To me it is a bug : the front most application should take the Digital Out channel, and release it when an other one becomes front most, but this bug has apparently being going on for a long time, and Apple does not seem interested in its correction.

  • Firefox OS 1.3 simulator doesn't work.(runs but shows a black screen)

    I am learning app development for firefox os.I installed a simulator for version 1.3 at my work place and it was working fine.I could write simple web app and run on the simulator.But when i installed the emulator on my home pc It was installed successfully but then was showing just a black screen.I am sure i have installed the correct version.I am using firefox 30.The simulator does show up in the app manager but when i start ,it just show a black screen.I don't understand why this is happening.I tried installing other versions like 1.4,but same thing happens for all the simulator addons.what could be the problem?

    Hi prathamesh_13,
    Thank you for your question. There should not be a black screen, and is sounds like you have already reinstalled the simulator on the second computer.
    If the simulator does not show up on the app manager it may not have been properly installed.
    Can you enable verbose logging:
    You can see messages logged from your app in the Web Console, which you can attach to your app using the App Manager. If you want to catch early messages happening during app startup, before the console gets connected and working, you can enable verbose logging in the Simulator.
    Visit about:config and create a new preference. The preference name is different for each version of the Simulator:
    [email protected] for Firefox OS 1.3
    [email protected] for Firefox OS 1.2
    Set it to the string value "all", and disable, then reenable, the add-on in the Add-on Manager. Now extra messages about the Simulator's operation will appear in the Browser Console.
