Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Das, If you are planning on doing segments that are about 30-45 mins long, you can use the CD-R cutters to cut a CD that will play as a DVD (It just doesn;t have the multilevel recording / compression and can't do 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 hour segments. Since the DVD recorders are +$500 USD and the CD-R are closer to $75 USD, not to mention the media ($5+ vs $0.50 / shot), I think you would be better off with multiple CD's vs one DVD.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Buy a Mac and just do your work on it. It will build BOTH Mac and PC formats OUT-OF-THE-BOX. The "superdrive" is fantastic. Best regards, Martin Das Goravani [] Saturday, September 28, 2002 11:05 AM gjlist [GJ] DVD Recording Input/Help ? Hi I'm getting ready to include DVD format in my future work. I have much of what is needed, computer, blank DVD's, authoring knowledge and software, but I lack a couple things: DVD recorder for my computer DVD mastering software? >From what I can tell, my version 5 of Adobe Premierre doesn't make the necessary video folder for DVD format. So I think I need a piece of software, and a recorder. I've looked into it, and recorders aren't that much. However, I've come to realize over time that often we have stuff we're not using, many of us, in this business. So does anyone have a DVD recorder they aren't using and no longer want? My Mac can handle PC format (IDE) drives. Then the software, anyone know what to do if you're using Premierre, or does anybody have a copy of Apple's HIGH END DVD authoring software they can part with? Also, any input on this subject on Macintosh appreciated. Sometimes pointers can save us from exploring useless paths in the labyrinth of life. peace Das Goravani, President 2852 Willamette St, #353 Eugene, OR, 97405, USA-America Voice: or in America fax: 541-343-0344 http://www.DancingMoonInc.com Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya; Hare Krishna; Om Tat Sat : gjlist- Your use of is subject to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a CD burner of course, and Toast for Mac, which burns DVD's, and everything else, Video CD, what have you... Do I need something to do the above, that I DON'T HAVE ? What exactly does one need? I'm looking at options right now. I got many hours of video lectures from Scandinavian tour to put out, want to do it cheaply, so burning my own CD's is attractive. I may just make Quicktime movies, then convert to .avi for PC, which I can do already with my gear/software currently owned. What do you think of just having CD's with a list of movies on them. I know it's basic, but it works, right? Any thoughts, simple input, simple red flags, do's and don't, appreciated, no dissertation required, just off head top stuff (but keep what hair you have, I have plenty of that.. ;-) And about that smiley Reiki chick you got living with you, well, I'll never turn down a Reiki Gift Horse! But I am doing pretty good. But support is also always good. I'm always riding fast forward, so it's good to have the well wishes of others. Reiki has to be reciprocated. We'll see, how can that be done? I'm so selfish, it's hard for me to let go of anything. Kinda. Kinda not true at all. Weird. Life is weird. Don't know what to say. Right NOW I'm really happy. Surprisingly. My head is just coming together. Accepting my reality is opening the FLOOD gates of creativity in me. The lamenting had them closed for years. Weird.
