Now that I've converted project to .mov file, how do I burn to dvd?

I've successfully converted my imovie file to a .mov file.
Now I can't figure out how to burn it to a dvd for playback on dvd player, not as data file.
Thanks
mrjazz

Hi mrjazz - not sure why you needed to create a new .mov file from your movie, but anyway what you now do is to open a new iDVD project, and import your file into it. This can actually be done by dragging and dropping the file into the iDVD window, or going File>Import.
If you have not used iDVD before then it would be well worth your while to skim through the Help menu first.

Now that iDVD is discontinued what can I use alongside iMovie to burn a dvd

I have managed to transfer all my old home videos onto my computer but the instructions are to transfer them from iMovie directly into iDVD to burn them to disc. I dont have iDVD installed and have tried various other methods but cannot make a copy. I have installed miDVD and have managed to burn a dvd using this but there is no sound. Please help but keep it simple as I am not very good with computer jargon. Thanks.

I don't know your iMac model number, you didn't supply it. But if it shipped with an OS X version prior to Lion, you should have 2 grey DVDs. The 2nd grey DVD may have included iLife applications.
Otherwise, the only source would be a retail iLife 011 DVD. You may be able to find one on eBay.

I have the new version of iMovie, and when i try to start the program, i can't because it says that it is looking for some movie files from the Iphoto, so all the program is locked up... how can i do to restart the program??

Hi
Did You ever use - iPhoto ?
Did You may be direct iPhoto to a different Photo Library
As iMovie tries to find the appropriate photo library - it can get lost if iPhoto direct it into a Library on a not connected external hard disk or to a strange location - And iMovie HANGS.
Do - When no other program is running that might interfere
• Start iPhoto - BUT NOW KEEP alt-key (option key) DOWN during the full Start-Up process
• Now iPhoto let's You select Photo Library
• Select the one in Your Account / Home folder / Pictures ! !
• Then iPhoto should start up OK
• Now Quit iPhoto
• START iMovie
Does it still hangs - then I would suspect - iMovie Pref. file
If it Run's OK - Then HURRAY !

How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

How can I burn a dvd now that I can't download premiere pro cs6 with Encore?

Here's what you do to get Premiere CS6 + Encore:
Just click here (it's the same link as the more information link in CC.)
or
Go to your Creative Cloud application (on the menu bar) and go to Adobe Premiere CC and click more information
There is a dropdown menu that says "Adobe Premiere Pro CC" near the top.
Click it and the other option is "Adobe Premiere Pro CS6." Select that.
Now on the top right corner of the page it has a download button that says "Download Adobe Premiere Pro CS6."
It is included in your CC subscription.
However, a word of warning, you cannot use Adobe Dynamic Link to link to a Premiere CC sequence directly in Encore. A CS6 sequence still works fine, but if you have a CC project, you will need to encode your sequence into a DVD friendly format (MPEG2 file). I'm really hoping that Adobe changes this in their upcoming release, and just adds the ability to import CC sequences into Encore, then I would be fine with them not including it in the normal CC package, or updating it. But I haven't seen anything about it in the release notes.
A lot of people still want their DVDs and it's a lot easier to just dynamically link the sequence.

I recently purchased QuickTime 7 Pro to convert avi files to mov files for editing on Imovie. However, QuickTime won't play the files. How can I get them to play and how can I convert them to mov files?

Both the AVI and the MOV file extensions refer to the file container and not the compressed data the file contains. Both are generic file containers in that each may contain any valid combination of audio and/or video data that is compatible with the codec component configuration of the system on which the file was created. On the other hand, whether a file is playback compatible, conversion compatible, and/or edit compatible depends on the data actually contained in the file container. So, you are basically dealing with two separate issues here—the container and what is inside it.
Basically, if you want to make your files ediit compatible with iMovie, you must change your file container to one that is acceptable to iMovie and convert the data to edit compatible audio and/or video compression formats as may be necessary. The best approach is to determine what codecs were actually used to create the original AVI files and add them to your system if possible. In most cases a codec package like Perian can be added to your system's codec component configuration to may the AVI file playable. Once they are playable, in the QT 7 app then they can be chnged or converted to file types and compression formats that can be edited in iMovie. (While Perian handles most codecs commonly used to create AVI files, it does not handle all possibilities and, while the Perian codec package still works under cureent Mac OS versions, its development group has decided to drop further development/support of the package.)
Background: AVI is a file container originally developed by Microsoft back in 1992 but for which official support was discontinued about 11 years. Despite its limitations, Windows users still tend to use this file based on its open source ease of use and generic nature, thus, making its use so popular that most users are unwilling to switch to more modern but less generic file types. Since some AVI legacy compression formats have never been transcoded for the Mac or use beyond OS 9 or OS X PPC platforms, it is often important to know what specific compression formats are contained in the AVI file to know which codecs to add to your system and which not to add in order to avoid possible codec conflicts.
You can use many different converters to convert AVI files to iMovie edit compatible files. Most third-party apps contain their own buit-in codecs which do not relay on the Mac codec component configuration. Free ones, like HandBrake, usually have limited conversion capabilities while those that have more varied outputs are usually commercial in nature and will cost you additional cash. QT 7 Pro or the free MPEG Streamclip app allow you to access you own system's component configuration and use any available codec component like DV, AIC, MPEG-4, H.264, Photo JPEG, etc.—all of which are iMovie compatible for editing purposes—but only after making the AVI file QT 7 player compatible.
In order to determine what compression formats wewre used in your AVI files you can
1) Try checking the Finder "Info" window,
2) Use the "Inspector", "Media Info", or "Properties" window of any player app that will open the file, or
3) Use a general media utility app like "MediaInfo" to read the file characteristics.

Converting Aperture created .MOV files to play on DVD

When exporting digital video clips from Aperture, they're exported in .MOV format which, if burned to a DVD, will not play. Is there a way to export video files from Aperture so that they will play on a DVD player, or is there a way to convert those .MOV files to a format that can play on a DVD?
I'm using a 21.5" iMac running OS10.6.8 and Aperture 3.2.4.

How do you burn your DVD? The Finder's "Burn" will create a data DVD, not a video DVD. You need a burn program like iDVD or Burn to burn your video onto a video DVD.

How to export a project in.mov file

Hi,
In I movie, it is possible to finalize a project in .mov file for instance; What about doing so in FCPX in order to get my file from within a DVD burn soft ?

Ok Tom, thanks for helping, will this do for TV screen watching ?

Is it better to export an iMovie project as QT and use Toast to burn a DVD for general use or to export to iDVD and burn VD from there? Why?

Is it better to export an iMovie project as QT and use Toast to burn a DVD for general use - or to export iMovie project to iDVD and burn DVD from there? Why?

Toast probably maintains better quality if you are just doing simple conversion direct from your camera straight into Toast and then to DVD. There's a lot less transcoding steps and loss of quality in that direct to DVD disk creation in Toast. However, having said that,...There's good arguments probably for both.
What I've seen promoted most often (as most people don't have Toast or aren't motivated to buy it) is to Share to Media Browser (choose the Large size option) and then from inside iDVD click the Media Button and the Movies button to find the project under the iMovie star icon in the Media Browser window. Drag that project into your iDVD project and burn the disk.

You might need to tell us a bit more about your problem. Do you mean you can't import a video file into Premiere, or your computer is having trouble playing Quicktime files?

Is there a way that you can convert an edited movie to quicktime if you shot on a T2i in 60 FPS?

I realized that I shot a project in 60fps on a T2i without my knowledge and I converted it back to 24 fps in streamclip. Then when I went to reconnect the media, there were no clickable clips...I first ran into this issue when the movie converted to quicktime with qlitches in it. Any solutions?

Wait wait wait. You edited the footage...you have a sequence that links to 60fps stuff. Then you went to the finder, changed the frame rate of the source footage, and then are trying to relink the project media to that footage? Dude...there's a frame mismatch. It won't work right. Not at all. OF COURSE you'll have problems. This is not how you do things.
You need to convert the footage. Import that NEW footage into FCP. Edit the sequence again with that new footage, in a PROPER sequence setting (meaning one that is 23.98).
Reconnecting 24fps media that FCP has set as 59.94 (the clips data will insist the media is 60fps, as that is what it was when you imported it)...is very problematic.
You need to bring in the newly converted footage all over again, and re-edit. You cannot edit, go "Oh, my frame rate is wrong," and just convert the clips rate and reconnect. Things don't work that way.

Now that I've converted project to .mov file, how do I burn to dvd?
