Can Movies be burned to DVD?

Can movies be burned to DVD in new iTunes 7 ? Thanks

You see, this is why I was excited about iTunes 7. Until the player comes out, there's no point in buying movies unless you have the space on your ipod (and money) to have multiple copies of the same movie in different formats.
Same reason why I don't understand UMD on the PSP. A portable DVD player would be just as useful.
I can burn protected audio files to CD and use elsewhere, why not TV shows and movies?
I apologize for simply ranting, though I do appreciate that somebody had the answer to this as being no (currently).
Apple is all about freedom, this seems to be a step in the wrong direction.
Everything else about iTunes 7 appears amazing. Just highly disappointing, I suppose. I was done buying DVDs at the store if this had been a yes...

I have a new Mac computer that has imovie. I recently made a movie that i would like to burn to a DVD. I hear that idvd is no longer being sold. Is there software on the computer that i can use to burn a dvd or is there a recommended software to use?

There is no really satisfactory substitute for iDVD to burn video files from iMovie.
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD 7, i.e. iLife version 9 onwards. You should also do this if you plan to buy a new Mac anytime soon, as stocks of iLife that include iDVD will not be available for ever.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast, which is the best software for burning anything but again does not offer the flexibility of iDVD.

Why can't I burn a DVD of photos from my iPhoto that will be viewable on a Windows computer?

Why can't I burn a DVD of photos from my iphotos that will be viewable on a PC using windows?

Darned if I know. What exactly are you doing?
The general answer is to select the photo(s) in iPhoto and export to a desktop folder (file menu ==> export). In the finder right click on that folder and burn to disk

After using iDVD, can my iMac burn a DVD ?

After using iDVD, can my iMac burn a DVD ?
I mean how do I know whether my disk drive can write/burn DVD ?
Mine is a 24" iMac bought some 5 months ago.
Thanks

Assuming your mac has at least 25 GB's of available hard drive space on the boot volume and an S-Drive as opposed to a combo drive; the latter only reads dvd's while the former both reads and writes to dvd, then you should be able to, yes.
But follow the iMovie> iDvd Tutorial/s first.

Hope this helps but if not just come on back. Good luck.

Can iTunes downloaded movies be burned to DVD

When you purchase a movie from iTunes store, can that movie be burned to a DVD for viewing on a regular TV via a connected DVD player.
Or is the movie limited to view only in iTunes and iPod....???
Because I just purchased and downloaded my first movie from iTunes and can't figure it out.
If we can make music CD's why not movie DVD's...?

No.

Those and iPhones.
If we can make music CD's why not movie DVD's...?
Because the same music can be purchased from a retail store in an unprotected form. Movies purchased through iTunes and from retail stores contain two different DRM models; DVDs burned on a computer don't contain copy protection.

Why can't I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro ?

I transferred some video footage to "iMovie' for editing and when I tried to burn it to a dvd disc, there was no option for that operation. All of the choices were to transfer it to You Tube, of facebook.Can I burn a dvd disc on my macBook pro laptop or not?

If you have a macbook with internal or USB external Superdrive, insert disk, and an option appears for burning files.
Otherwise drop the movie into a folder and click on the settings button of the folder and choose "burn .......to disk"

Exporting video/movies to burn to DVD

Trying to figure out how to export videos/movies to a compatable DVD. Currently the videos/movies play through Quicktime player that are in my iPhoto library. When I select the videos I want to export the iDVD option along with the Export option goes away. Tried to select burn disc and all it did was burn the first frame of every video and nothing more. Trying to preserve my childrens memories before I attempt to install leopard and risk losing a lot of cherished photos/videos

You're better off by creating a data DVD through the Finder or elsewhere than attempting to use iDVD or similar software to create a video DVD. Locate the video files in the Finder and burn them as you would any other file.

Can't Reliably Burn DL DVD-Rs

Having a huge problem trying to burn DL DVD-Rs on our Mid 2012 Mac Pro. We have tried a couple different types of media, but we get the "The attempt to burn the disc has failed and may be unreliable" warning about half the time. Wasting too many discs this way...
The burner is original to the Mac, simply called an HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GH80N, which I believe is an LG model. We have tried a couple different types of media, including Verbatim, but still see these errors. I have an old 2008 Mac Pro that has a discontinued Pioneer drive on it that is virtually 100% relaible.
Has anyone found a sweet spot on Macs with a drive/media that works reliably with the Finder? Is there one or both I should change? Or do I need to look at better disc burning software?
Thanks in advance!

Hey Kevlar, I have never had a coaster using Taiyo Yuden (JVC) DVD-DL I buy the 8X and burn at 4X, have never had a failure with the superdrive or my internal Pioneer BDR-208DBK BD burner either. I get all my disk from the SuperMediaStore (stay away from the cheaper "Value Line" disks). Whatever your disc read/write speed is burn at half the speed and run a laser cleaning disk through your burner ever so often. What editing software do you use?

Why can't I burn a DVD?

Help! I use PE7 and all is well until I try to burn a DVD. At that point, PE7 announces that a problem has occurred and the software closes. I have to reboot my computer to open PE7 again. I use a Dell Dimension 3400 with 2.99 GHz, 1.99 SB RAM. I have placed PE7 on an external drive with a terabyte of memory; hardly any of it used.

A likely cause of this error is that some program did not report memory usage correctly to the OS.
This ARTICLE will give tips on finding "clues" as to what was happening at that moment. Chances are good that that program, or Process is identified somewhere in the Event Viewer. Now, be prepared to do a bit of reading, but follow EVERY link in any of the error, or warning messages.
Good luck,
Hunt

Can I legally burn my DVD to iPad 2??

Hi I live in the uk and I am wondering if there is a ay to burn all my own DVDs to my computer with the intention of putting on my iPad. Is there anything I can buy from apple or otherwise as I'd love to take my films on the go. Thank you

The actual act of backing up the DVD isn't the problem but in order to do so one has to break copy protection, this is illegal. Again any further discussion, regardless, is against the terms of this forum. No one will be able to help with this here.

Purchased Movie to burn on DVD

I believe it should say that you will not be able to burn to a DVD on the website so it would not be misleading. I feel that I was mis-informed about the purchase of a movie. I thought paying $12.99 for a movie was pretty good but didn't know at the time I would only be able to play the movie on my computer. I would like to be reimbursed.

this is a user to user troubleshooting forum, so it would probably be better to take this up directly with Apple. for contact information, see:

No sound when movies are burned onto DVD

I have sound in my movies when I preview the project before I burn it but after it's burned the sound disappears from the movies... The theme music is there but no sound from the movies. Was I suppose to import sound or something? Please help.

Hi, am not an expert like the others are, but I too had the same problem and read somewhere in this forum that this happens (no sound) if you had chapter markers on your iMovie and you placed the chapter mark at a place that doesnt exactly align with where the music for that chapter starts. So what I did was to go back to my iMovie project, i deleted the previous chapter marker, made sure the music for that chapter started exactly where the chapter started, and then added a new chapter marker. then when you open iDVD, it will prompt you if you want to update your "assets", say yes. then go to Movies and drag that same project in.
I hope it works for you. It did for me (but unfortunately I found out there was no music in one of my chapters only after I had already burned 10 copies!!). Hope you are luckier.

How can my G5 burn a DVD that it can't play back

I'm using DVDSP4. Bit rate is 6.8 max and 5.0 min. This is a head scratcher. It plays fine in DVD players, but in the very burner that burned it, no dice!

Happens to me all the time...I still have the standard Hitachi superdrive in my dual 2gig G5 (fall 2004 model). It's not consistent, but on occasion I'll burn a batch of discs which play on settop players, in Windows laptops, and on my G4 (which I retrofitted with a Pioneer D-111 drive), but which won't play on the Hitachi. See my posts re: "Why is DVD Player SOOOOO BAD?" for more info about this.
My solution? I'm replacing the Hitachi drive with the new Pioneer dual-layer drive.
