Burning TV Shows to a DVD

I downloaded a bunch of episodes of NBC'S show The Office onto my computer from the Apple iTunes store. However, they are eating up all of my memory and I was wondering if there was any way I could burn them onto a DVD so that I could play them on my DVD player? That way I can delete them and free up space (I have like 30 episodes). If this is not feasible, can I burn the episodes on a CD or DVD so that I can put them on another computer that has more space? Thanks for you help in advance!
If it helps I think I have the latest version of iTunes and iDVD 2 I think.

any way I could burn them onto a DVD so that I could play them on my DVD player?
no.
can I burn the episodes on a CD or DVD so that I can put them on another computer that has more space?
yes, if the computer is authorized to play files purchased by your account.

    how to burn slide show too a dvd-r in web superdrive plugged into the usb port

    I think this link will offer some good insight. I would recommend moving the library to an external HD if you are already using iPhoto on your MBP. If you do decide to move the library directly to your MBP just make sure you are using a different enough name for it that your MBP can easily locate each library independently.

  • How to burn slide show to a dvd to watch on any tv

    how do you burn slide show to a disk to watch on any tv

    If you only have PSE, then output your slideshow as a wmv file and use whatever  software you have to create the video dvd, even something like Windows DVD maker. If you also have Premiere Elements, then send the slideshow there for finishing.

  • Burning Downloaded shows on a DVD

    I tried burning a DVD with "The Office" shows bought from iTunes Music store, but after i burned the DVD whenever i try to play it on either of my DVD players it refuses to start playing, niether of them can read the disc. I burned it on a Data DVD format, because it was my only option. I am using Sony DVD-R disc's to burn. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You,

    Sorry to be the messenger of bad new but, with purchased video you currently can not burn it to a playable DVD.
    Apple has done this to make sure "Hollywoods" content is fully protected and to keep them happy. Now there are some DVD players that will read and play a DATA dvd, but most don't. DATA DVDs are mainly for backup only incase your PC crashes or something.

  • Can I burn TV shows onto a DVD?

    If I bought a show off of iTunes can I put it onto a DVD? Say I want to watch them in a DVD player is there a way of doing that?

    You can archive any purchases you make on the iTunes Store to CD/DVD. However, the copy protection built into the video content prevents you from being able to burn a DVD that you could play in a DVD player. Sorry.

  • Burning TV Shows From itunes onto DVD

    Is this possible? How do I go about it?

    Due to DRM it is not possible to burn those shows to a DVD-Video at the moment.
    You are only able to burn those files to a DATA-DVD for backup purposes.
    Sorry.

  • PSE4 How to burn slide show to DVD

    I have created a slide show with over 200 photos and added music. After saving it (which took 45 min.) I want to save it to DVD. When I open the burn page it only has VCD option. How do I get it to burn to DVD. I have a Gateway Computer wit an NEC DVD burner. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

    David,
    Below is an extract from a discussion I had with others on forums who had your current dilemma. Adobe's answer is generally to use Adobe Premiere Elements to burn the DVD; if you have it installed there is a additional option to burn to DVD on that menu. However, you may have other choices.
    If you have a DVD burner, want to make a PSE 3 or 4 slide show that plays on a TV DVD player, and do not have Premiere Elements:
    - create a WMV file using DVD NTSC or DVD PAL (according to your country TV standards) as the OUTPUT parameters
    - then read the doc that came with the software that supports your DVD burner (might be Nero, Sonic, Roxio) looking for a function that will create a Video DVD (note that it must specifically be creating/authoring a VIDEO DVD intended for play on TV rather than just burning a data DVD). Once you find this function, use your WMV file from PSE 4 as the input and choose the software options that give you a video DVD.
    Based on my experience and conversing with others on forums, this will give you a DVD that is significantly better quality than the Elements VCD (written to a CD) and but not quite as good as a program that does a slide show direct to DVD. Quality is a subjective judgement, so I am not saying this is the answer for everyone. However, my philosphy is generally to try the software I have first before purchasing additional software.
    Notes: For Sonic, I used a MyDVD limited edition that came with my burner. For Nero, I communicated with someone who did it with Nero Vision Express. I don't have any specifics for Roxio.
    Notes: Creation of the WMV will almost always take a long time - depending on the number of slides and the number and type of transitions, zooms, pans. Each photo must downsized in resolution, then each individual type of motion must be applied; these photos must then become frame per second video (a significantly different format translation). All this takes time and processor power.

  • How to burn an iPhoto slide show to a DVD

    is it possible to burn an iPhoto slide show to a dvd ?

    Sure:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/9.0/en/phtf677be44.html
    I use the advanced settings and export in DV format, 640x480.
    Save the exported slideshow in your "movies" folder.
    Start up iDVD and you can see this slideshow in your media.

  • Burning an iPhoto slide show to a DVD

    I have created a slideshow using iPhoto but don't know how to burn it on to a DVD. Can anyone explain how to do this? Thanks

    AHH a fellow sufferer. I was pulling my hair out about this finally with help from my computer literate son and the apple genius bar figured how how to do this.
    1.go to IDVD. Pick a theme (actually this is a menu and only shows when your dvd opens until you click a "my slideshow button on the menu page. Some music will also be playing. Ignore this for now) If you want one of your photos or more to show in the first opening panel, just go to media, There you will find all your iPhotos. PIck an album or event. PIck a simple theme like the lotus flower and your photo will override it totally.Drag one photo to the Theme box. You can limit how long the theme panel shows also by going to the little ion the left lower next to the + click and you will see various things that you can do like decrease loop time and eliminate "intro and outro"?? Can't give you any advice on this but I usually shorten the loop time.
    2.Then go to the lower left "+" sign and it will let you drag in a slideshow you have made in iPhoto. If you note directly below the middle of the screen on the left there is a diagram, sort of an algorhythm. showing three squares. in the middle you will see two arrows indicating revolutions and on the right a dotted edge small box. Ignore these.(for now anyway).Go to your iPhotos shown under media (on the lower right there are buttons for Themes, buttons and media. Click on media and you will see all your iphotos under photos and all your iTunes under audio. Arrange the order of the photos and then Drag the photos you want onto the panel which says slideshow. Presto, there you are. If you have given titles to your photos they can be displayed and you can affect the type, etc. Double Click on the slideshow panel, you will see thumbnails with the .cmg or.jpeg annotations. Click on the Settings GEar and you will see the options to show titles. (The final option"duck audio.." can apparently lower audio(??)I didn't notice any difference
    3. On to Audio. go to the audio files select what you want to play and highlight it and drag it anywhere onto the slideshow/ You will know it is there by an ITunes speaker showing up in the lower panel YOu can hit transitions to chose how that works, does not have ken burns which I dislike because it truncates my photos. Select slideshow speed. 3 secs is too short with titles. Click return.
    4. you will be returned to the screen with the Theme box, the slideshow box on its right and a gray box on the left. for a start which will avoid the theme opener, drag the slideshow box over to the left box, you will now have two slideshow boxes. This usually avoids the theme screen entirely when your disc plays. Now you can preview and burn.
    5. You can also make an iPhoto slideshow complete with music, other formats transitions and music and save it as a Quicktime movie to your desktop. Then when you hit the "+" button on the left click on add movie and drag it from your desktop onto the little box next to the theme box (the same place you dragged your slideshow or photos)
    6. Finally the approved way per applestore genius bar, use iMovie. it will show up your iphotos in the media box. Drag them into the upper bar. There is also a media box, which has your iTunes. drag the ones you want onto the lower box. For more specific tunes for certain groups of photos you just drag the tunes under the photos, truncating the music as you wish with your cursor. You can also add titles under your photos but iMovie will not transfer the titles you may have given photos in iPhoto, so I did not use this method, already having gone to all the work of titling my iPHotos
    After previewing, hit the burn button, it can take some time to set up, but if you burn several discs the repeat burn time is much shortened.
    HOpe this helps, if yo have more questions I'd be happy to helpl if I can. forgive the typos please

  • Burning slide show on DVD.

    Have P E 5.  Wish to create and display slide shows on HDTV.  Have created a show, but just learned that my version cannot burn the show to DVD.  Am I missing something?  Are there other options?  Does the latest version 10 have this feature?
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Fred

    No version of PSE has this function, since Adobe wants you to buy Premiere Elements.
    If you have a dvd burner you must have some kind of software you can use for this, even if it's only windows movie maker. You may also have gotten something like Roxio. Check to see what you have on your computer already. Then just output your slideshow as a wmv file and use whatever it is to create the video disc.
    However, note that PSE does not create HD output.

  • How do I burn a slide show to a DVD which will work with my DVD player?

    I've been able to create a slide show of photos with selected i-Tunes music.  I can create a file and burn it to a blank DVD R, but both a regular and Blu-Ray DVD players say the disk is incompatible.
    Also, is there supposed to be a file under Events where you can keep other slide shows?

    You need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD. Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    NOTE: there are other video DVD authoring apps available thru the App Store.  However, they do not have the themes and professional appearance that iDVD provides.

  • How to burn slide show to Blu-ray DVD ?

    I've burned a slide show with music to a regular DVD but it comes out with poor resolution when blowing up to full screen. When I try to burn same to a Blu-ray DVD I can't because it burns at about 20 fps ( which I don't need ) and takes too much memory ....about 4 Gig !

    Photoshop Elements does not do the burn of a slide show to a DVD disc or to Blu-ray disc: Photoshop Elements only burns the VERY low resolution VCD format to a CD disc. The DVD formats are created by the Adobe Premiere Elements software which perhaps you purchased in; a bundle with Photopshop Elements.
    Premiere Elements has a separate forum at
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere_elements
    so that is where you will find people who can help with questions about Blu-ray and standard def video DVDs
    When you post on that forum, I recommend that you include which version of the Adobe software you are running, which version of Windows, and whether you are doing your playback of the slide show at full screen on a computer or using a TV DVD player. Also if doing playback on a computer include what software are you using for playback at full screen and what is the resolution of that screen ?

  • Do I need to get a separate program to burn multiples copies of a DVD on Mac?

    Do I need to get a separate program to burn multiples copies of a DVD on Mac, and not have the copies separate into AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS?  I made a series of lesson plans on iMovie.  When it opens on the original disk, it goes right to my music and intro menu.  When I try to burn it to a new DVD, it shows up as AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS.  It does not open at all.  Please advise. 
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Does the disk image that you created from the previously burned iDVD project look like this?
    If so you don't copy any part of it to a blank DVD.  You open Disk Utility and select it like I do in this screenshot:
    insert a blank DVD and click on the Burn button.
