How to put a .mov file on a dvd using lion and have a commercial DVD player play my movie? iDVD is gone. I never had it.

I have found a lot of frustration around this topic but no answers.
I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X Version 10.7.4.
I have a video I made with iMovie. I want to burn it to a DVD for commercial DVD playback. It's as simple as that.
Things I've tried.
1. Using iMovie, I saved an HD version of the project to my desktop as a .MOV file. I know I can just burn that to a DVD. It won't play. I need a utility/program to put the necessary files on the DVD so a commercial namebrand DVD player will have what it needs.
2. I heard iDVD used to do this but it's not on my MacBook Pro (Lion OS). I've researched things like "What replaced iDVD" but found nothing but a but of complaining. (and I can see why).
3. I have looked for freeware. It all looks fishy.
Other options I'm looking into.
Use my Mac and connect a cable to the big TV screen. Play the movie using this screen as a secondary monitor. Problem - I have a dozen cables but none for this combo.
Move the .MOV file to a PC and play it using QuickTime. The cables I have will work for a PC to TV. Sad option.

Have you tried...     Burn 2.5.1 (FREE)

How do I save a file to a server using flex and coldfusion?

How do I save a file to a server using flex and coldfusion?
On the CF side I might need to use this:
<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="Filedata"
destination="#expandpath('..\somepath)#"
nameconflict="overwrite">
And on the flex side I might need to use something like this:
var sendVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
sendVars.action = "upload";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
request.data = sendVars;
request.url = _strUploadScript;
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
_refUploadFile = new FileReference();
_refUploadFile = _arrUploadFiles[_numCurrentUpload].data;
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
onUploadProgress);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onUploadComplete);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
onUploadIoError);
_refUploadFile.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR,
onUploadSecurityError);
_refUploadFile.upload(request, "file", false);
I just don't know how to put it all together in Coldfusion.

try this...

How to put a tab space in a center aligned paragraph and have it remained centered?

I am trying to put a tab spacing within a paragraph that is center aligned but when I press the tab button it pushes the paragraph to the left. How do I solve the problem? I have several lines I need to do this for so adjusting it one but one is a bit tedious.

I don't use Captchas because they are not web friendly. Humans have a hard time reading them which often leads to form submission failures and frustration. I much prefer the Honeypot (hidden input field) method. It traps spam bots who cannot resist filling in fields because they don't use CSS or JavaScript. If the hidden field contains any characters, your form processing script can be set-up to flag that as spam and abort the submission. Humans never see the hidden field, so it works seamlessly behind the scenes. There's no limit on how many hidden form fields you can have on a page.

I'm trying to put a swf file on a dvd that will autostart using OS X

I'm trying to put a swf file on a dvd that will autostart using OS X and Director MX. I imported one swf file that has nested movie clips.
Some of them play and some don't.
Any suggestions?

The swf file runs fine on a computer. But now they want me to export it as a .mov and put it on a dvd that customers without computers can put in a tv/dvd player. They want it to auto start. When I export it as .mov, QuickTime only plays the first 20 seconds and not all of the nested movie clips play. They don't want it to play in a QuickTime player. Do I need to upgrade to QuickTime Pro? Any suggestions?Thanks

There is no autostart or autorun in OS X. Can you give more detail on the problem with the flash swf files?

How to load a client file in a clob using sqlcl

How to load a client file in a clob using sqlcl

You don't "load" jars. If it's on the classpath, you can obtain individual resources from it using various methods on either Class or ClassLoader. Do you mean "how to add a jar to the classpath at runtime"? Can't be done without using a classloader, typically URLClassLoader or a subclass thereof. Why you want to not use the proven method is beyond me. Presumably because you don't understand classloading. In which case, forget it.

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly Thanks anyway!

The Java option works well.

Putting 2 vob files onto 1 DVD -Please help

I borrowed a handicam that burns to mini DVD, as mine broke. Usually I import files as DV on the mac from my camera and cut them together there.
With this camera, I have two halves of a recital that I want to put onto 1 DVD. I saved the DOB files from each mini disc ont my Mac and I figured I would just put them both into iDVD or edit with iMovie and burn onto 1 DVD, but I cannot import or use DOB files with them. I also have Final Cut Express, but again - no DOB files. iMovie won't take them.
I tried converting the files with VLC or MPEG Stream on a PC but the audio and video don't sync.
All I want to do is put both VOB files on a DVD that will play in a DVD player.
Please help me! I am extremely frustrated and under a deadline...

Make your sequences, export out as DV AVI files, bring them into Encore and author as usual.
