    You can't, the Apple TV is very much a device to replace DVD's.

  • How do i make a dvd from an imovie

    I made a new project in iMovie, and I want to burn it onto a DVD, but my iLife package did not come with iDVD, so how do I burn a DVD from iMovie without iDVD?

    you have a very legitimate point. To my knowledge, there is no more secure way for archival storage than a DVD stored in a dark, cool, plastic enclosed jacket (to protect from scratches). after experiencing hard drive SATA storage discs (time capsule failures in particular) fail, want to go back to DVD storage, but now everyone wants to sell you a new program and 2 TB backups.
    So what to do? Dumb down my Lion OS  back to Leopard and go back to the good old days when I could get something done?
    Having "switched " from MS to Mac almost 4 years ago, ready to go back. I had fewer hassles with my computers, got more done, and had lower blood pressure ten years ago than I do now, although Windows is always a "Johnny come lately" when it comes to any new innovation, having merely perfected the art of monopoly. lately though, have become very disenchanted with Apple, and will not be replacing /repairing my MacBook pro, macMini,  iIMac when they finally break.
    Is there any you tube site that someone could show me how to simply plug my Sony 8mm camcorder with the old Motorola style plugs (also has an S -video option) to the Mac Mini and burn the DVDs one by one? No editing. no fancy stuff. Just a straight out burn for archival storage? I want to get that done first before I mess with the hard drive back ups.
    Thanks

    Use iDVD.
    Apple no longer sells it. Buy any version of iLife 11, 09, or 08 from your favourite software vendor and install just the iDVD app.

  • How do I create a DVD from an iMovie '08 Project?

    How do I create a DVD from an iMovie '08 Project? I followed the directions in the help section but when I open iDVD, my project is "grayed out" and I cannot open it in iDVD.
    Rich Rector

    In general, in imovie Share to Media Browser or Share to iTunes.
    Then open iDVD. Open the Media Browser in iDVD (at bottom right of window). Navigate to your movies and you should see the movie you made. Drag it in to the iDVD project.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If your Mac meets the specifications for airplay mirroring, then you can play your DVDs but you will have to use a program such as VLC.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).

    I have the new retina MacBook Pro.  I made an iMovie but there's no idvd.  How do I make a dvd from my iMovie?

    Apple no longer sells iDvd.  You will have to purchase an older version of iLife that has iDvd on it or use a third party application such as Toast from Roxio.

  • How can i stream media wirelessly from macbook pro ? video...

    how can i stream media wirelessly from macbook pro mountain lion to dynex bluray player or insignia mhl tv? i also have a time capsule...

    most reliable method found is get an AppleTV hooked to TV, and get program called BEAMER (free trial or $15 purchase application).     Lots of programs CAN stream to TV via wifi, but many of them get audio syncing wrong/bad.   Best addition upgrade to any Apple PC or laptop isnt internal, but the AppleTV     BEAMER app is the best Apple/Mac app out there to me, ...  Ive got 7 Terabytes of Videos, ...the Beamer app takes in any video format, its just incredible.

  • How do you burn a dvd from imovie if computer does not have idvd anymore?

    How can I burn a dvd from imovie if this computer does not have idvd? is there anything in mountain lion that will allow this simple task to be completed.'
    When i try to finish a project in iphoto it wont even do that...can anyone help?

    Buy iDVD.
    Yes, there are other programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others.  None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.

    With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.
    IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.  (works with all Mac OS 10.5 and newer.)
