Yes. Hire a captioning service to do it for you.

I have never met anyone who has used Lightscribe successfully more than once. But that’s just my small circle of pals.
Almost any burner can be programmed to use the software, the list is quite long at HP or here:

Is the software even available for Macintosh? Requires special media, too.

You’ll be much happier with a printer, expecially if you hand these disks to a client. If you’re not giving them to real people, a Sharpie will give you better faster more creatively rewarding results than Lightscribe.Q: What Operating Systems are supported by LightScribe?
A: LightScribe is available on Windows 2000 and XP and supports Mac OS X 10.3 via the Lacie DVD+/-RW external Double layer drives and DVD +/- internal drives.
Q: Can I install a LightScribe enabled drive in my Mac?A: Although most LightScribe enabled drives can be installed in a Mac system, they will not have the required LightScribe System Software or Labeling application to make the process work unless specifically provided with the hardware or purchased separately. LaCie is a Licensee providing a complete hardware and software solution. Also, SmileOnMyMac, an Independent Sofware Vendor, provides Mac compatible Labeling Software. See related FAQ. Note that a Mac compatible LightScribe System Software (also available at this site) is also required in order for this software package to work.
Q: Can I install an internal LightScribe drive in an aftermarket external drive case?A: Only LightScribe drives sold as a complete external drive are currently qualified and supported. Many third party external drive cases have not been tested and may not function properly for LightScribe labeling due to communication protocol conflicts with some interface hardware sets.

It can’t be done.
Well, it can.
Your screen size will be 120×90 pixels, the frame rate will be 2 fps. You might be able to squeeze 3fps.bogiesan

There is no FCP timecode on tapes.

Start by opening the FCP manual and reading the DVDSP parts.
Then open the DVDSP manual and read the FCP parts.Export out of FCP using reference. Using self-contained or MPEG2 encoding are not necessary unless you have specific reasons for using those methods. You don’t or you wouldn’t be asking this question. this way.
Import the reference into DVDSP, drop it onto the timeline and push the burn button. What happens after that is between you and the manuals. You have lots of choices you can make. Or not.
While the process is streamlined it’s not simple at all and there are many ways to screw it up.

We often see this error on corrupt files and files to which you really don’t have access. This could be a total disaster for you for an easily fixed user account management situation. those files may have had their read privileges changed so check those in Get Info.

I cannot imagine Google allowing you to mount 90 minutes of video without charging you lots of money but I’m not in that business.
> I’ve got an hour and a half of DVCPRO50 16:9 video and I need to post it on Google video. I want to post it as a Quicktime file at the best quality possible the Google can deliver and host, while still having it stream to the viewer for easy un interupted viewing on atleast a DSL line. < They've got specs. >The fastest way to get your videos included in Google Video is to submit each file in our preferred format. We accept video in AVI, ASF, QuickTime, Windows Media and MPEG formats, however, we currently do not accept Flash files. Specific video codecs we accept include H.264, H.263, MPEG 1/2/4 and motion JPEG.
> From FCP5 what program should I use to output this new file? Quicktime Conversion? Compressor? < Compressor will do the job nicely. Transcoding from high rez to a highly compressed format using a different codec can take from 4-to-1 up to 10-to-1 ratio. If you've got a 90 minute DVCPRO50 file, you could be looking at a full day of encoding. It's a very complex process that depends totally on CPU. > How do I retain the native 16:9 asspect ratio but reduce the screen size to Google’s preffered size. and an hour and a half should be how big of a file? < That's not possible to guess from here. Compressor is certainly up to the task but you may not like it. If you open up the settings in Compressor you will see there are dozens of adjustments, filters and tweaks you can apply. Encoding for "best possible", like many other esoteric practices in this business, is best left to a trained and qualified specialist. Hire this done by someone who does stuff for google. Or plan on doing it five or six times yourself. You can use one of the h.264 settings for DSL as a starter and work on a small 2-4 minute clip that has a range of exposure and motion content. This is not going to be easy the first few times but you will get to a point where encoding, transcoding and uploading are second nature. you just need to learn a new language that has nothing to do with video. bogiesan This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
