#WHERE TO BUY IDVD SOFTWARE#
If it works, you've isolated the problem as your RAM, since your IDE controller and software show that they work.This site is the online companion to my book, "The Macintosh iLife '06", If it works, boot off of your drive (still in target disk mode), and burn using your iLife install.

This will take your RAM and your iLife install out of the equation. If you have access to another Superdrive Mac, try booting your mac into FW target-disk mode and burning the project on the other Mac. 1 G3) that resulted in currupted data reads/writes. Check versiontracker for a memory checker (you might have to boot into OS 9 to do this since when I had a problem a year ago, there were no freeware OS X memory-checking utilities).Īnother issue I've had in the past, also with iMovie/iDVD was a bad IDE controller (it was a souped-up Rev. iDVD stresses your memory more than usual. When all else fails, I've found that these types of problems can be caused by bad RAM. It seems like you have been very thorough in your troubleshooting - and since even your simulation burns fail, I don't think you have a busted drive or bad media. You need to look at the scripts after a failed burn to get any useful information, so run another simulation burn. Well - it looks likes your logs were cleaned out by the periodic UNIX maintenance scripts or by restarting your machine. I was thinking that it could be the drive that has an issue of some sort, but I just instaled iLife last week fine, and I burned an old DVD image fine as well. I never expected to have this amount of trouble when doing this project, and right now I am out of ideas. I even tried to reimport the footage again and burn it, but that came up with the same results. I am always geting burning errors, such as this one:
Both of these types, plus the DVD-RW's won't burn the project.
I began with some Memorex DVD-R discs, but when they ran out I got some Ritek DVD-R's. I recently got some Imation DVD-RW's because I was wasting so many DVD-R discs. So then I used the easter egg to make an image in iDVD to burn in Toast, but that has consistently not owrked as well. I use the iMovie footage and make chapter marks for iDVD, then I make a project in iDVD and do the encode but the burn always fails. From that point on, I have been trying and trying countless times to get the project to work.

Anyway, I did some research about the sync issue and found out that I could export the movie back to my camera in 16-bit audio and then reimport it with the correct audio, and I did just that. Even though the audio was off, the project could still burn. I began this project with the audio at 12 bit in iMovie, so everytime I burned the project the audio would quickly become out of synch. I am having some serious difficulties in taking my iDVD project to DVD.
