Help Please: how can I burn a dvd movie without a theme?

I know this has been asked before. But none of the previous answers/suggestions seem to work. I've tried to use the "looping" method from the help menu, I still get a theme, now at the end of my video "package". And it doesn't "loop". I've tried to take a jpeg from photos and cover the theme using the option key, but that doesn't work either. I just want to have the option to be able to "turn off" the themes and create a clean video dvd for people who don't have time to choose on-screen buttons. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide

Hey maybe you can help me. I was trying to figure out how to burn an iPhoto slideshow on iDVD, but don't want to use the lame Apple themes. I went to the link you pointed out about one-step iDVD's, but the problem is you have to have a movie, and iPhoto won't let me export my slideshow while keeping the music in sync. Insane.
So two questions... do you know how to export a slideshow to .M4V or .MOV without losing the sync between all the pictures and the music? I've got 88 slides all set to specific timing and Ken Burns effect, but every time I do an export the music becomes disconnected from the pictures and goes out of sync.
I did do an export to iDVD and it seemed to stay in sync but I can't figure out how to get rid of the ridiculous theme that iDVD is automatically using. I don't want a theme at all.
When is someone at Apple going to figure out that most people just want a plain wrapper?
Anyway, do you know any answers to my problems? Thanks. I've lost 4 slideshows this week as iPhoto keeps losing all the slide settings.

How d I copy a dvd movie onto a blank dvd?

I just got my i mac and new to apple. I am trying to make a copy of a movie to a blank dvd and I don't know how to do this, can someone please help me or tell me where to look for this help? I would greatly appreciate any help I can get. I't for a christmas present. thanks for your help!!

is it a Christmas present of a commercial dvd? .... or is it something that was authored using iDvd? If it's a copy protected dvd / commercial product then please also read apple's terms of use to the right of this page. If it's a burned dvd which you personally authored you can use apple's disc utility or Toast to make an identical copy.

I have decrypted it using (removed), and it took out all the Video_TS files. But the vision: M rejects it. And i don't to convert every single file because then i have like 26 files on the vision: M for one movie.Message Edited by Jason-CL on 04-7-2007 03:25 PM

We cannot allow discussion of how to decrypt, rip and copy commercial DVD on this forum as (in most countries) it is illegal. You may be able to find more information on this on other websites or search engines.

How do I get a DVD movie onto iTunes ??

I have been trying to get the DVD on to iTunes but it doesn't work correctly. Any ideas?

If it's a commercial DVD, you have to first break the CSS encryption, which is illegal in many countries so against the forum rules for anyone to tell you how to do here.
If it's a non-commercial DVD, Handbrake is a graet program to convert dvd's to MP4's that will play on the ipad

How do I burn my home movies to a DVD?

I have a MacBook Pro which I purchased in June of 2012. I would like to put my home moives onto a DVD to mail to my relatives. (I don't want ot put them on You Tube.) How can I burn my home movies onto a DVD? I guess you could do this with iDVD in iMovie 11, but the MacBook Pro that I have does not have this feature under Share. What do I do?

Personally, I use iMovie to edit my home movies, then I use Burn to burn it to a disk. Burn will automatically set the necessary files and everything for you too! Just drag and drop, and click burn.

How do i burn an iPhoto slideshow onto a DVD?

how do I burn an iphoto slideshow onto a DVD? and a blueraycompatable DVD?

Export the slideshow from iPhoto, that makes a movie of it.
Do you want to use this DVD in a domestic DVD player? If so, then the disk will have to be 'authored' to make it the correct form for that. If you have iDVD then that's the app you use. However, iDVD is no longer developed or distributed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk.
Other options:
Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate
As for Bluray you'll need an app (and a burner) that can create that format.

That's a proprietary interface.
Odds are there is no adapter. Ask Sony.

How do I burn a home movie on my mac to dvd

How do I burn a home movie that I put in itunes to a dvd

You need burn software to do so. Do you have iLife 09 or 11 installed? If so, you have iDVD which is perfect. What app did you use to edit/put together the movie?
If you don't have iDVD, then take a look at Roxio Toast ($$) or Burn (free) or google for other apps.
FWIW, I've never parked a home made movie in iTunes, so I have no idea if there is anything you can do with it there. My guess is you need to get it into the burn software. And, if you still have an older version of iMovie, it may still have a burn option within.

How can I burn an iMovie project onto DVD?

I just finished a project on iMovie. I need to burn a copy on a DVD.
IDVD does work for my needs. The old versions of iMovie had an option to burn DVDs.
So... how can one burn an DVD copy without using iDVD?
Also best program to convert file format from iMovie ... i.e. Windows computer?

So why not use iDVD? If you don't have it:

HT5630 how do I burn a dvd using usb superdrive to mac or itunes?

How do I burn my dvds onto either my Macbook air or onto itunes using external USB superdrive please??

"Burn my DVD" refers to the process of taking data FROM the Macbook and copying them TO the DVD, not potentially the other way around, as you have asked the question.
Are you wanting to copy (rip) movies from a DVD and place them into iTunes?
-or-
Are you wanting to copy (burn) a movie from a digital copy on your computer to the DVD?
The way you have asked the question makes no sense.

How can I burn a dvd without themes?

how can I burn a dvd without themes?

(From fellow poster Mishmumken: )
How to create a DVD in iDVD without menu (there are several options):
1. Easy: Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously. Disadvantage: The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
2. Still easy: If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well). Disadvantage: The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
3. Still quite easy but takes more time: Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
Disadvantage: One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software: Roxio Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn. Disadvantage: you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
5. The "hard way": Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
Tools necessary: myDVDedit ( http://www.mydvdedit.com )
• create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
• Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
• Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
• Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
• Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
• Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
• Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager:
http://lonestar.utsa.edu/llee/applescript/dvdimager.html
Our resident expert, Old Toad, also recommends this: there is a 3rd export/share option that give better results. That's to use the Share ➙ Media Browser menu option. Then in iDVD go to the Media Browser and drag the movie into iDVD where you want it.
Hope this helps!
