    Thank you. I did a search but didn’t find the tutorials or instructions. Can I do this in iDVD? Or do I need to use DVD Studio Pro? (I have never used DVD Studio Pro.)

    I am sorry if this sounds dumb…. but will a 16:9 DVD play on a regular monitor? My client is an artist who just wants this little video for her own use. I was imagining it would be a 4:3 DVD perhaps letterboxed. In which case the 4:3 footage would be cropped. right?

    You may have some corruption somewhere. But before panicking, go to File menu and reload media database, and refresh media files. You may also want to rebuild your media databases by going into the OMFI MediaFiles folder(s) on your drive(s) and throwing away the 2 database files (they will be the most recent files if you sort by modified date). Make sure Media Composer is quit, then throw all the media database files in the trash, and relaunch Media Composer. It will take a bit of time to rebuild all the media databases but it is a great thing to do.

    The media tool should indeed be approached with a certain amount of trepidation and great care! Are you being careful about selecting only the current project when you run the media tool?

    Also, you can set the clips to sort by column like Tape which helps make sure you don’t accidentally delete the wrong thing.

    Are you running out of drive space? why are you doing this anyway? I generally try to avoid it at all costs.

    I also tried it on a few other Macs (my husband’s and then a couple of others at work) and it didn’t work on any of them either. Yes it has a .mov extension.

    As far as I know, the only way is to insert edit in the empty timeline after the effect, and include that empty “clip” when you drag and drop. Or you can use the auto gain keyframing instead of dissolves, but be warned that this won’t be preserved when you make an OMF

  • This may sound dumb, but have you already tried rebooting everything? Including the Adrenaline box and all? I was getting a similar problem but with audio and it disappeared after I shut everything down and restarted.

    Also, does this only happen when outputting or also when you play in your timeline in SD? Are you using Digital Cut tool?
