How can I make dvd from imovie..

Hi I recently wrote this question in another topic but
it seems that it is better to re-question in a new thread..
I am using imovie for some years but to make dvd, I use Toast 6 not i dvd, because mine doesn't burn dvd.
So far I needed to make a DVD of only a short movie (15 minutes) so what I did was:
import the finished movie to quicktime (as high quality DV movie format) and then
burn DVD in Toast.
And with that format, 15-minute-short movie ended up 4 GB.
Now I need to make a dvd of a longer film (50 minutes) and if I want to
make DVD with this way, in order to make a quicktime mpeg4 format it takes 270 minutes..
I have always had difficulties to understand the right format for DVD; I know that I have to make mpeg2 (right?) for DVD, but in i movie, if I cann't use idvd, what should I do??
I hope that anyone can help me with this, maybe silly, question..
wishing all a good day,
minobu

ciao minobu,

In Toast (as in iDVD) you have two options: burning a dvd or produce an image of a dvd...
a) ... is simple: finally you get your disk (physical)
b) ... the whole computing process of making a movie into the file system of a video-dvd happens, BUT it end not in using the burner, but storing the "image" (=files and data structure) of the dvd.
your Mac is able to "mount" such an image; after that you see a disc symbol on your desktop! (as you would have inset a real dvd....). you can "open" that virtaul sic with Apple's dvdplayer to check, wether it looks like you wished. and you can have look about its size finally, you can force Toast to "transfer" that image onto a real dvd-r
as said, that could be done with iDVD5/part of iLife05 too........
probably it is not on your iBook, because the installers checks, wether a burner is installed/your iBookG3 doesn't fullfill the minimum specs... even with Toast producing a DVDs on a iBook G3 is a very long time consuming process...

Thnx ever so much
awaitng ur reply

I don't want to sound too harsh, but you really need to read the manual and do the tutorials.
You shoot, capture and edit in FCP. You export that to MPEG2 using compressor and you import the resulting video and audio files into DVDSP. You add a menu and set up buttons to get to the footage, and you set up navigation so that your client can get back to the menu at any time. You build and format that (i.e. burn the disc).
That's the process, but it is very much more detailed than any of us could write here.... it's all in the manual and tutorials

How do i burn dvd from iMovie

How do I burn dvd from iMovie. iMac has yesomite installed.

Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?

To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see.

How can i make still from 16:9 film tot bitmap without distortion?

how can I make stills from my 16:9 movie to bitmap without having distortion?
! work with Adobe Premiere Elements 10

Bernard Bussemaker
If you really have a 720 x 576 Standard Widescreen Video 16:9 (PAR = 1.4587) and you want a jpg still capture from it using Premiere Elements 10, then I suggest the following:
Premiere Elements 10
Project Preset = PAL DV Widescreen
Place the Timeline Indicator to the frame that you want as a jpg image.
Go to
Share
Computer
Image
and there set Presets = DV PAL SD (it is long story, but you do not have much choice at that level), so
you could experiment with JPEG - HD 1920 x 1080 but no sure how that is going to look going from 720 x 576 to 1920 x 1080, so
Under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset, set
Frame Width 1024 or 1050 pixels
Frame Width 576 pixels
Aspect = Square (1.0)
("or" relates to....if you just want a 16:9 jpg still, then 1024 will do fine. If you want a 16:9 jpg still that will present in a Premiere Elements project to fill the Edit Mode monitor, then 1050.
1024 x 576 is the square pixel version of the non square pixel version 720 x 576 widescreen which is stretched for display after encoding.
Image can resize downward if necessary. More details on that later.)
If the details of what I have suggested are too much, then just try the suggestion step by step and then let us know if it works for you. If any questions or you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask.
If you are really dealing with a 720 x 576 4:3 standard video, we can go through that next.
But the answers are in the details.
Thanks.

How to make DVD from iMovie

HT1338 What has happened to IDvd, a friend of mine purchased a Mac Pro, he asked me how to burn a dvd from IMovie, his pro mac does not have IDVD to download to, only a dvd player setting, how do you burn a IMovie project now, before you went through IDVD

An alternative to iDVD - miDVD which I believe you can get from the App Store for free!

What software do I need so i can burn a DVD from iMovies?

I simply want to burn a DVD from my iMovies and send to another party to be able to play on their computer or DVD.

Apple don't want you to do that.
The current Apple thinking is that the entire world has access to fast broadband and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. That worked for some, but is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between using iCloud and burning DVDs:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
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.
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.

How can I transfer video from iMovie 2.0 on iOS7 to my PC without using the share tool?

I'm trying to get a large video (~7.5GB) from iMovie to transfer to my PC for editing. Being that I am using a 16GB iPhone 5s, this seems to be impossible with the share tool (the square with an up arrow coming out of it) because iMovie wants to duplicate the video to either the camera roll or some other medium which won't fit on my device. Is there any way (hack or otherwise) that I can get my video safely to the computer?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Kurt,
The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck.
I think it's best that take this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
Thank you for your time and interest in helping.

How can i make changes from the user in TabBar with more button persistent? I´m using the Storyboard.

I have build an App with more than 5 Tabs, the user can change the order of the items, but this is not persitent.
How can i fix this on iOS 7 and i´m using the Storyboard.

Can I do it afterwards ?
Yes. In addition to what Bee Jay said, here are some other tips.
First record a pattern that's a few bars long, and don't tweak any knobs while you're doing this. Set a Cycle Range, because we want to play this pattern over and over again. Press A to make Automation visible (although there isn't any yet).
Find the channel strip for this track, either in the Inspector or in the Mixer window. Just above the meter, look for the button that says "Off." Hold down this button and a menu will appear. Select "Touch." Press Play. As the pattern plays the first time, pick a knob in the ABL2 window, and mess with that knob. At the end of the pattern, let go of the knob, and then watch what the knob does as the pattern plays again. Then as the pattern plays some more, mess with another knob. You'll notice that curves are being drawn in the Arrange window as you mess with the knobs.
This should help get you started.

How to create a dvd from iMovie '11

I have created a video in iMovie and am trying to transfer it to a DVD. However, there is no Export function. When I share the movie to a file it uses a .mp4 format which is then not able to be be burned to a disc. In the past, the extension was .mov and I was able to create a DVD without any problems.

You need iDVD.
