How to make a DVD disk with iMovie

Can someone tell me how to create a DVD movie disk using iMovies?

Assuming you actually have the iDVD application - most recent Macs do not.
Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?

  • How to make a DVD video with iDVD without using themes

    How can I record my DVD without using iDVD themes. I do not care about the selections. I just want a simple slide show showing only photos.

    Hello puzzledbon,
    Than you for the question.  You can make a OneStep DVD from a movie to avoid adding a theme to you DVD.  Before you can do that, you will have to create your slideshow and export it in iPhoto.
    Use the steps in the section titled "Make a saved slideshow" in the following article to create a slideshow in iPhoto '11:
    iPhoto '11: Make a slideshow
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2333
    Next, you will have to export the slideshow as a movie using the steps in this article:
    iPhoto '11: Export a slideshow
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2428
    If you are using iPhoto '09, you can use the steps in this video to create and export your slideshow:
    iPhoto '09: Create and Share a Slideshow
    http://support.apple.com/kb/vi14
    Exporting the slideshow as a movie will give you a video file that you can use in conjunction with the steps in the following article to make a DVD without a theme:

  • How to make a DVD disk image to be burned from a PC?

    I need to make a DVD with DVD-SP, save a disc image, upload it have someone on a PC download it and burn it.
    Is this possible? Anybody been succesful at this?
    thanks

    If they have a burning program that recognizes VIDEO_TS files, no problem.
    You need to remove two files from VIDEO_TS first called .LAY and .LAYOUT. They are only required by DVD SP and not the final disc.
    To be safe make a top level folder called NAME_OF_FILM (max 32 characters) and put VIDEO_TS in there together with an empty folder named AUDIO_TS.
    Actually, DVD SP should generate this for you it will be where ever the Build folder is set to be saved in Preferences.
    Don't make a Mac disk image. PCs can't read them. A .zip file or ISO (Toast makes them) is probably better.

  • Using 8cm dvd disks with iMovie

    Several of the students in my school are using mini DVD camcorders of their own.
    Am I right in thinking that it's NOT possible to export and edit footage from these dvds? Surely not!
    At the moment I can't even figure out a way to insert the disks without going back to using one of our old tray loading G4s. Do I need an adaptor to insert them into slot loading G5? (Some camera manuals seem to warn against this!)
    Is there any point any way? How would I rip the DVD contents into a format that's importable into iMovie HD?
    Can't believe that a new camera format such as this seems to have this basic functionality all wrong!

    you have some options to import content from a DVD
    (as long, as your iMac's dvd drive supports dvd+)
    * DVDxD
    V (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
    * Apple
    mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
    Cinematize >60$
    * Mpeg2Works
    25$ + Apple plug-in
    * Toast6/7 allows converting to
    dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    * connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a
    DVD-player and disk to tape/use as converter
    Yes, the Imac does play DVD+ discs. Do you have a preference for any of the programs suggested? Many thanks for your help with this.

  • How to make a DVD video with bonus iPod ready vids included

    I'd like to make a standard video DVD for playing in a typical DVD player. But somewhere on the disc, I was also thinking of putting on a bunch of iPod ready videos that people could just copy directly onto their hard drives.
    I'm hoping someone might have some advice on how to get this extra content onto the DVD.
    Thanks for any help.

    Since the folder content is not going to be played on a set top player, you might as well simply add a menu with text to inform the user that the content is there. You might try using DVD@ccess links to get the content to play when in a computer, but to be honest, since you are providing video only I wouldn't think it worth the effort.
    You could also consider linking to a simple HTML page that itself references the footage so that the user sees a familiar web browser and has a page with 'download' links on it. You'll need to create your microsite as you would any other web site of this kind, and then put it all in a single folder. Point your @ccess link to the single folder and the 'index.htm' page will load into the default web browser.... as long as the user has got @ccess installed on their computer.
    Given the problematic nature of this piece of software, it is often not worth the effort. If you have access to a PC then you should look at Sonic eDVD as a far better alternative.

  • How to make a DVD compatible with USA televisions

    I sent a DVD to a friend in USA made with iDVD in Spain . He can not see on the tv , what can we do ?

    Hi
    One can do this in better or worse ways.
    Fastest and best (as I see it) is to use VLC on a Mac or PC. As previously said.
    Bad way is to make a PAL movie and drop this into a NTSC iDVD project.
    - YES iDVD will convert it into NTSC - BUT the resulting DVD will play very bad and jumpy !
    - I do my projects (most oftennin PAL) and then Export them as full quality QuickTime.mov
    - Then I use JES_Deinterlacer (free on Internet) to convert from 25fps to 29.97fps
    - This movie I drop into a NTSC iDVD project. AND the resulting DVDs plays very well in USA !
    I use Verbatim DVD-R
    I burn at slowest possibly speed - to get as few burn errors possibly - YES IT DO MATTERS !

  • Pictures don't play... How to make a slide show with iMovie ?

    Please help. I drop pictures into time line in iMovie 10 and they don't  apear in the window I can't play them. where as video can be played. but  when I move cursor over the pictures only green screen apears. Why ???? 

    Alternatively, you can export a H264 mp4 from the slideshow module, dump it on a memory stick (or plain DVD) and stick it in the TV or your BluRay player
    Not all Blu-ray palyers can play MP4 container video files. So this may, or may not work depending on your Blu-ray player's capabilities. ALL Blu-ray players will play H.264 AVC HD video with .MTS file format, but Lightroom 3  does not offer this as a slideshow export option.
    See the 'Overview' section here for more information on the file system and folder organization:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVCHD
    The folder structure when using USB and SD media is different than DVD media! More information here:

  • 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?

    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 burn a boot-up disk with  updated OSX 10.6.4?

    Mac Book Pro was purchased with OSX 10.6 . The manufacturer’s disk that comes with Mac has OSX 10.6 too.
    Later I did install some updates from Apple. Now it is version OSX 10.6.4.
    The question :
    How burn a boot-up disk with this updated OSX 10.6.4. which can be used for boot-ups instead of the manufacturer’s disk with the older 10.6 OSX.?

    Thanks guys -I begin to get the picture...
    Being a newbie I just need to ask you for some more info:
    _Re “They kindly sent me an OEM 10.5.6 DVD (White DVD with Apple logo on it”_
    My question: What is OEM dvd and can I make request for such a dvd over the internet?
    Re “If you have a 16 GB flash drive you can install an emergency copy of OS X, _upgrade to your current version_, install some repair utilities, etc. and use it for an emergency boot disk.”
    My question: I already have such an emergency copy on 16 Gb flash drive, so, how I upgrade it to my current version? Can it be done by getting on on internet and run software update as I did with OS installed on my Hard Drive?
    Thanks in advance for your replies!

  • Can I make a slides show with imovie(8,0,6)

    Can I make a slides show with imovie (8,0,6). If so, how?

    Hi
    Yes and No
    No - if Quality is important AND You want a DVD as result - no iMovie'08 to 11 can handle or export - Interlaced SD-Video to any DVD authoring program - When going from Event's to Project every second line in the Picture is lost and this will be a noticeable quality loss in the final DVD
    YES - If You don't want a DVD -
    • Just start a new Project
    • Import Photos from Media button / Photos
    • Insert transition of choice
    • Insert Audio at Your liking - I convert all to .aiff and not use any .mp3 or from iTunes directly (converted they work OK)
    If DVD - Then use
    • iMovie HD6 - or -
    • FinalCut any version
    • FotoMagico™
    • iDVD - BUT this is limited in several ways
    - max 99 photos per show
    - one transition possibly
    - audio - one audio tract (but this can be created outside iDVD to contain more than one tune
    Good Luck

  • How I make a boot disk

    Hello.
    I'm an absolut Linux beginner and I tried to install archlinux on an external HDD, because my internal windows drives are dynamic logical Volumes and this doesn't work with Linux.
    After the installation from the CD I noticed that I cannopt boot from USB HDD because of the BIOS.
    How I make a boot disk (floppy) now ? The wiki guide doesn't help because if I boot from the installation CD I don't have the command fdformat and the command pacman - S grub works neither.
    Can you help?
    Best Regards
    BX-8017
    Excuse by bad language please, I'm not english!

    Ok,
    I found a grub boot disk on the net, it was a super grub boot disk. I deleted nearly all files and just copied my files from /boot/grub in the grub directory of the floppy disk. I used the windows tool "explore2fs" to get acces to my boot partition with the grub directory.
    Her is my menu.lst:
    # (0) Arch Linux
    title  Arch Linux
    root   (hd2,0)
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdc1 ro vga=773
    initrd /kernel26.img
    # (1) Arch Linux
    title  Arch Linux Fallback
    root   (hd2,0)
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdc1 ro vga=773
    initrd /kernel26-fallback.img
    # (1) Windows
    title Windows XP
    rootnoverify (hd0,0)
    makeactive
    chainloader +1
    It doesn't work, because the hd 2,0 is not found from grub. (Selected disk does not exist)
    It seams that grub is not recognizing my usb hdd at start up ?!?! but this cannot be, because during the installation process it is.
    Many Thanks
    BX-8017
    PS The possibility to boot Arch with the Windows Bootmanager is interesting. Maybe we can discuss this later.....

  • Can I make a DVD from the iMovie I just created?

    Hello! Hey, nothing like last minute but I created a movie using still photos and music in iMovie. Not one problem, went without a hitch. However, I want to put this in a DVD to watch on my TV tomorrow morning....it's a Christmas gift for my husband and daughter. Is there any way to do this? Do I have to do it in iDVD?
    I realize this probably won't get answered tonight considering this is Christmas Eve. But, thought I'd try.
    Thanks!
    Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas to you also.
    Choose share and media browser, once this is complete open iDVD and you will see your movie in the media browser, you can then use it with iDVD to make your DVD.
    Next time try iMovie 06.
    I use both iMovie 08 and iMovie 06, if I want to make a DVD I prefer iMovie 06. iMovie 08 is not as DVD friendly as iMovie 06.
    iMovie 08 has replaced "Share to iDVD" with "Share to media browser". Also iMovie 08 cannot set chapter markers, this has to be done with another program.
    When using iMovie 06, one mouse click will set a chapter marker EXACTLY where you specify. In just a few seconds set all your chapter markers. When you are done editing just "share to iDVD 08" and all of your chapter markers will be there!
    iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is a terrific combination.
    Apple includes iMovie 06 as a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imovieHD6.html
    The Web site below has a good comparison of iMovie 08 and iMovie 06.
