Multiple movies--what's the best way to put them all on one disc?

Hi there, as an Xmas present for the grandparents, we are compiling a bunch of movies of our daughter in various stages of her 3 years thus far, and we are hoping to put them on a DVD so that they can watch it on their DVD player / television. We were thinking of just burning them as data files to a CD so that they could see them on their computer, but were hoping that we could find a way to burn them onto a DVD so that they could watch it on their television instead!
Will iDVD do the trick? We have an iMac 21.5" and the movies are all from our Panasonic point and shoot digital camera...
Thanks!!!

iMovie => iDvd should work fine in this scenario, yes. (As will iPhoto > iM > iDvd).

  • What is the best way to put various songs into one album?

    I have been adding album information and album artwork within iTunes to take advantage of cover flow, but i have a lot of songs in my music library that are "stand alone" songs - it is the only song from that artist. I want to put all of these songs together in one album, so all of my miscellaneous rock songs will be put into a Rock Music album or file. I want to do this to eliminate all of the grey boxes within cover flow for all of these songs. When i give the files all the same album name (Rock Music) and album artist (Various Artists) it still does not put them all together within iTunes. It will do it for some, but not all.
    What is the best way to put all of these miscellaneous songs into the same album?

    Try marking all the tracks as part of a compilation. Click on the first track in your list, hold down the shift key and click on the last. Right click anywhere in the selection and choose Get Info, when you are asked if you want to edit multiple items say yes. Change compilation at the bottom of the window to Yes.

    Hi DVX100Shooter,
    Congratulations on getting your son a new iPad, I am sure he will enjoy it. 
    Family Sharing is one way of managing both purchases and content between members of a related group of people. Each member must have their own Apple ID. You can choose what music you wish to share with the family from your own account. See this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Share purchases with your family
    In particular the section titled Hide a purchase from other family members
    The music library on your son's iPad is separate from yours, but under Family Sharing you agree to pay for all purchases made through the iTunes store. If you wish to control what is purchased you can set up the Ask to Buy option for any family member under adult age in your location. See this article for details -
    Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy - Apple Support
    Gift cards may not be used for billing of purchases under family sharing, with the exception that a family member may use gift cards to purchase their own content. See this article for information about Family Sharing billing policies -
    Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
    The shared family photo album is available to all family members.

    You can share songs, but if there is DRM protection on the song, it will not play on the other device unless you also transfer the rights to the other device. You are getting into the problem of music piracy.

  • I need to organize medical photos.  They are pre-op and post-op photos.  What is the best way to organize them.  should I use iphoto or is that too much trouble.

    I need to organize medical photos.  They are pre-op and post-op photos.  What is the best way to organize them?  should I use iphoto or is that too much trouble? Since they occur on different days, organizing by event does not seem appropriate.  Also, organizing by face is not always possible as some are close up photos of an individual eye.  Surely, this has been done before, and I don't want to spin my wheels reinventing this.

    Who can tell with that amount of information to work with?
    iPhoto is not limited to Events or Faces as organizational tools - Albums, Keywords, various forms of metadata can be leveraged for use as well, and these are often more flexible. Really it's up to you to look at the tools available and see if they suit your usage scenario.

  • What is the best way to put a movie on a DVD?

    I want to put my movie on a DVD and show it on the TV. What is the best way to do this?

    Yes, you can put more than one movie on a DVD, as long as the total length of both together is not over 2hrs for single-layer DVDs.
    I know what you mean about it taking so long for the burning....my DVDs are usually just close to 2hrs, so taking 12-14hrs to burn is not unusual for me. I just do it overnight, and it is finished in the morning. I 'save to disc image' first, and then do the burning from Disk Utility.
    Trust me, I've tried everything I can think of to be able to.
    I am surprised that you cannot get your movies exported back to DV tapes with your camcorder. I looked up its specs, and it shows it has Firewire port, so you should be able to export. I would pursue this further....
    Have you tried saving your movies as QuickTime Full-Quality and then importing that into a new iMovie and exporting that? You will need to have more free space to copy the movie, but once you have made the QT movie, you can delete the original one, and you can delete the QT one after the export. Also, it may take a LOOOONNNGGG time for the compression/process necessary to create the QT movie, and somewhat long for the import into iMovie, but I have found that iMovies that would not export to my camcorder in their original form exported easily after I made the QT one.

  • What is the best way to put links in an image?

    I have created an image with multiple layers and many of the
    layers are the text I would like to use as links. When I sliced up
    the image using layer based slices, the end result was a degraded
    image.
    The page I am working on with the slice marks affecting it

    Where did you get this page? It is a melange of ImageReady,
    GoLive, and who
    knows what else, loaded with invalid usages, and other
    oddities....
    Anyhow, the first link shows me no slice marks - what am I
    looking for
    there?
    Normally, one would use an image map (use DW's F1 help to
    look for
    "hotspot") to do something like this.

  • What is the best way to back up iPhoto and create disc space

    what is the best way to back up iPhoto and then remove the iphoto folder from the mac book and onto the external apple time capsule

    Two different questions
    the best qway to backup is to use TimeMachine or other automatic backjup program
    However this does not allow you to reduce space since a backup need to be a copy of your existing library and as soond as you changge the library you no longer have a backup and sooner or later the photos will be gone form the bakcujp too
    You need to run the iPhoto library on an external drive or had a complete library on and external drive and a smaller library on yoru internal drive using iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to move photos between the two libraries
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • I have a large kodak easyshare library, what is the best way to transfer them into iPhoto ?

    I have about 5k pictures in the kodak easyshare software system on a dell laptop - what is the best way to transfer or import them into iPhoto on my iMac ? any help will be greatly appreciated...

    Simply, export the data from this esy share system to standard formats like jpeg, making sure to preserve all metadata on the way. How to do that? YOu'll need to post on a Kodak forum I'm afraid.
    Then copy the files to the Mac and import them.
    Regards

  • I am scanning all of our old photographs.  What is the best way to save them

    I am unsure if I should store on DVDs, thumb drives, or an external hard drive

    I'm assuming that your old photographs are valuable to you and you don't want to lose them. If this is the case I would plan on some kind of redundant backup scheme. Har drives fail. Recordable DVDs become unreadable. Any method could fail. If you plan to access them frequently I would definitely have them on a hard drive. In addition I might put them on some other media. Three separate copies stored in three different locations and not in the same residence is the best way to make sure the photo files are preserved should something happen in one of the locations.

  • What's the best way to put a programmat​ically sizeable transparen​t image onto a VI front panel

    The problem is twofold: 1) how can programmatically read a transparent image (i.e. image with transparent background) and 2) how can I programmatically position and size that image onto a VI front panel. The best luck I had with item 2 was with a boolean custom control with an imported image. However, this control does not have a programmatic method for importing an image, so the image had to be manually cut&pasted into the custom control.

    Hi,
    If the image is static, it's possible. You can drop a metafile on the front
    panel, and use Panel>Decorations> to get a reference to the image. Resize it
    as desired.
    Changing the image (e.g. from file) is not possible this way, but you can
    put multiple images on the screen and change the visibility...
    If you want to make a picture viewer, I'd consider an activex control (this
    way you can load several picture formats without any programming).
    Regards,
    Wiebe.
