Can I make a DVD using Quicktime or anything else in my arsenal?

First off I apologize for m idiocracy in posting this in "Quicktime for Windows" before this as I simply was noy paying any attention, also, please forgive me what I am about to ask has been discussed, but I didn't find any answers in my searching so here goes: How can I make a DVD that will play in TV set DVD players? Do I need any alternate programs or possibly an upgrade to Quicktime Pro?
Heres the situation I have that way, with any luck, you'll understand what and I am trying to do (and hopefully tell me it's a rather easy process): I have a friend that has a bunch of skate videos available for download on his personal web page....turns out those downloads are .mgp and they play through Quicktime. Now what I want to do is take those said videos and make them into a DVD I can watch in any player. Is this possible with Quicktime, iDVD, or anything else that came standard with my new Macbook or do I need another program? Sorry, I'm a new Mac user.
Thanks for the help I've already been given on ths site and the info I am sure to receive now. So far these discussion forums have been extremely helpful.

If you have do do many then buy Toast 8 Titanium and use them directly in Toast and skip first making a QT version then turning around and making yet another version. Which avoid compressing the clips twice as well. MPEG-1 is a very low quality codec so I would not compress the clips once to QT and again to iDVD.
Also iDVD is fussy and takes forever, Toast isn't and doesn't.

    can I make an mp3 using Quicktime Pro?

    QuickTime can play .mp3 files and can edit audio formats but it can't export to .mp3.
    Use iTunes for that.

  • I have alot of loose photos at home (old) and I would love to make a bunch of iphoto books and make the pages like whole page collages?  How do I get my photos into iphoto in order to do this?  Can I make a DVD at the drugstore and add them to iphoto?

    I have alot of loose photos at home (old) and I would love to make a bunch of iphoto books and make the pages like whole page collages?  How do I get my photos into iphoto in order to do this?  Can I make a DVD at the drugstore and add them to iphoto?

    You can make the collages easily if you have iWork.  Just open a letter sized page in landscape mode and drag the photos onto the page, rotate and postiion as necessary.  Then do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save PDF to iPhoto to get a 200 dpi jpeg version of the Pages page into iPhoto.  From there you can add it to your book and use a blank page with the option to have an image as the backbround. 
    If you have a 3rd party image editor that supports layers you can create the collage with it.

  • I can't make a DVD backup copy of my Adobe Online Storage

    I can't make a DVD backup copy of my Adobe Online Storage File. How do you do it?
    David

    Hello David,
    I would suggest to use the Adobe Media Downloader to download your images
    Click here to archive your Photoshop.com library so you do not lose any files.
    You will be asked to download an Adobe Air application called Media Downloader.
    Then you can use your Dvd buring software to make a back up of your images
    Thanks

  • Can I make another website using iWeb,then publish it to a different server through the SMTP panel on iWeb

    Can I make another website using iWeb, and then publish it to a different server through the SMTP panel on iWeb, even though I have a website published on mobile me, can I just use the SMTP engine to publish a different site but to a different server, that's the question I'm asking. I'm hoping for a quick reply. Thank you for your time in reading this.

    Yes.  You can do it one of two ways: 
    1 - select FTP Server in the Publish To menu (click on the site folder to get to the options) and enter the FTP address, username and password and publish as you would if using MMe.
    2 - select Publish to Folder and publish. Use a 3rd party FTP client like  Cyberduck to upload the site files to there server using the FTP address, etc.

  • I can't burn a dvd using any method, Idvd tells me that my super drive is missing, dvd studio pro quits when i click burn and disk utility keeps spitting the disk out when i click burn and enter the disk??? how do i repair my superdrive for imac

    I can't burn a dvd using any method, idvd tells me that my super drive is missing, dvd studio pro quits when i click burn and disk utility keeps spitting the disk out when I click burn and enter the disk??? how do i repair my superdrive for imac, or how do I do whatever I need to do to get it working: I have already tried using a lens cleaning cd and also restored my nvram or something i forget what it was called but i restarted my computer holding down  command+optoion+p+r and still nothing???
    Free solutions are the best, although if I have to pay I will, I would prefer to not have to buy an external burner if possible and already know that is an option so please don't give me that answer... thank you for any help you can give

    Unless your iMac is still covered by AppleCare, get an external DVD burner.
    You can get perfectly good ones from Amazon for less than $40.

  • How can I reinstall Safari 8.0 without disturbing anything else?

    How can I reinstall Safari 8.0 without disturbing anything else?  I have OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite & Safari 8.0 (that comes in it) installed on a MacBook Pro laptop and a Mac Mini tabletop computer. I want to access internet banking which goes without problems on the laptop but does not work on the tabletop. The latter says "somebody tried to display the application in a frame..." whatever that means and obviously for safety reasons I can not start banking it always comes back to the screen with this warning. I tried Mozilla FireFox on the tabletop Mini and everything works fine including the banking. A Mac expert suggested something is wrong with the Safari settings and I should reinstall it. How do I do this without reinstalling the System? Would it suffice to wipe out the Safari Preferences and start anew? I am looking for somebody's advice more experienced than I am. Thanks!

    Hello isza41,
    Before you try to do any uninstall/install stuff let me suggest you something:
    Create a new user and check if the same happens within its account. You could do so by going trough the following steps:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups.
    Click the lock icon to unlock it, then enter an administrator name and password.
    Click Add below the list of users.
    Click the New Account pop-up menu, then choose a type of user. - Standard user account would be perfect here.
    Enter a full name for the new user. An account name is generated automatically. To use a different account name, enter it now—you can’t change it later.
    Enter a password for the user, then enter it again to verify. Using a password hint is recommended to help the user remember his or her password.
    Click Create User.
    Now Logout from your account (⌘⇧Q) and Login to the one you have just created. This account is fresh without any changed settings(as a new instance would look like).
    Check if the same would happen and you would see if this is an issue with your installation or something more general.

  • Have a brand new dell. Not much on it but Premiere elements 13. Haven't used it for anything else - only 5 days old. I am in Premiere, add vid, render then poof. it says add media where those rendered files were. any help would be appreciated. thank you

    bgar
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on?
    What are you (manually) or the project (automatically) setting as the project preset?
    (See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size,
    and Pixel Aspect Ratio (even if fields look grayed out).
    What are the properties of these source media, including file extension? The brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the
    video may give us this information.
    When the source media hit the Timeline for the first time, is there an orange line over their content? Or is there
    no colored line and an orange line appears over them only after you have edited them?
    Please elaborate on "poof" after rendering the Timeline content by pressing the Render button above the Timeline content with the orange line over it.
    a. Media Offline displays?
    b. Other?
