I used Share --> DVD to burn a program, but my DVD player + TC says "Unable to play this disk. Unsupported color system".
I find under DVD Settings it reads: Color Space: Standard = Rec. 601 (PAL). I assume that is the "color system" problem.
Can you tell me how to correct this? (FYI, in the FCPX program info it reads "640 x 480 / 25p / Rec. 601 (NTSC).
Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6), FCPX 10.3.4
I see the 640 x 480 in the Inspector. But there it says it is NTSC. But in the DVD Settings it says it is PAL. I just tried burning it in Toast and Toast says the file is PAL. (This footage came to me from someone in DC.) Toast let me change the full file to NTSC, and it plays, though it appears to be of lower res. Still, this is progress. Any way to change this inside of FCPX itself? Good to hear from you Tom and to know you're still at your station! Duncan
Is the original media 640x480? That’s unfortunately a non-standard size of NTSC. The frame rate should be 29.97. Since pretty much all DVD players can play back NTSC, I would suggest you’re better off burning an NTSC disc at 720x480.
Tom,
Thank you. Can I change the program inside FCPX to be 720 x 480 and 29.97? If so, where? I'd like to change to program profile itself, as I need to send someone the file in addition to a DVD. Thanks again.
Make a new project at the standard NTSC size and frame rate and copy and paste the contents into it.
Where do you see the 640x480 etc? That’s not PAL. Can you give your project properties?
Thank you, Tom. I am so glad you are there to help people like me. What a gift.
Best wishes, Duncan
How change DVD burn from "PAL" to NTSC?
