Purchased Movie to burn on DVD

I believe it should say that you will not be able to burn to a DVD on the website so it would not be misleading. I feel that I was mis-informed about the purchase of a movie. I thought paying $12.99 for a movie was pretty good but didn't know at the time I would only be able to play the movie on my computer. I would like to be reimbursed.

this is a user to user troubleshooting forum, so it would probably be better to take this up directly with Apple. for contact information, see:

Can Movies be burned to DVD?

Can movies be burned to DVD in new iTunes 7 ? Thanks

You see, this is why I was excited about iTunes 7. Until the player comes out, there's no point in buying movies unless you have the space on your ipod (and money) to have multiple copies of the same movie in different formats.
Same reason why I don't understand UMD on the PSP. A portable DVD player would be just as useful.
I can burn protected audio files to CD and use elsewhere, why not TV shows and movies?
I apologize for simply ranting, though I do appreciate that somebody had the answer to this as being no (currently).
Apple is all about freedom, this seems to be a step in the wrong direction.
Everything else about iTunes 7 appears amazing. Just highly disappointing, I suppose. I was done buying DVDs at the store if this had been a yes...

Can iTunes downloaded movies be burned to DVD

When you purchase a movie from iTunes store, can that movie be burned to a DVD for viewing on a regular TV via a connected DVD player.
Or is the movie limited to view only in iTunes and iPod....???
Because I just purchased and downloaded my first movie from iTunes and can't figure it out.
If we can make music CD's why not movie DVD's...?

No.
Or is the movie limited to view only in iTunes and iPod....?
Those and iPhones.
If we can make music CD's why not movie DVD's...?
Because the same music can be purchased from a retail store in an unprotected form. Movies purchased through iTunes and from retail stores contain two different DRM models; DVDs burned on a computer don't contain copy protection.

Exporting video/movies to burn to DVD

Trying to figure out how to export videos/movies to a compatable DVD. Currently the videos/movies play through Quicktime player that are in my iPhoto library. When I select the videos I want to export the iDVD option along with the Export option goes away. Tried to select burn disc and all it did was burn the first frame of every video and nothing more. Trying to preserve my childrens memories before I attempt to install leopard and risk losing a lot of cherished photos/videos

Trying to preserve my childrens memories before I attempt to install leopard
You're better off by creating a data DVD through the Finder or elsewhere than attempting to use iDVD or similar software to create a video DVD. Locate the video files in the Finder and burn them as you would any other file.

Can I transfer my purchased Movie/TV shows to DVD to view on my Television

I am trying to transfer my Purchased TV episodes to DVD for viewing on my blue ray player/TV. Do you need special software to do this?

If you have a TV that will accept it you can connect your iPad directly to the TV and play the movies from there. Use the Apple Composite AV cable.

No sound when movies are burned onto DVD

I have sound in my movies when I preview the project before I burn it but after it's burned the sound disappears from the movies... The theme music is there but no sound from the movies. Was I suppose to import sound or something? Please help.

Hi, am not an expert like the others are, but I too had the same problem and read somewhere in this forum that this happens (no sound) if you had chapter markers on your iMovie and you placed the chapter mark at a place that doesnt exactly align with where the music for that chapter starts. So what I did was to go back to my iMovie project, i deleted the previous chapter marker, made sure the music for that chapter started exactly where the chapter started, and then added a new chapter marker. then when you open iDVD, it will prompt you if you want to update your "assets", say yes. then go to Movies and drag that same project in.
I hope it works for you. It did for me (but unfortunately I found out there was no music in one of my chapters only after I had already burned 10 copies!!). Hope you are luckier.

How do I create a wide screen movie in Premiere Elements 7 and burn to DVD or Blue Ray?

I have created a movie using project settings of 16:9 and also filmed in this format. The movie I burned to DVD is not in wide screen. I have requested assistance and given instructions to go through share and select Sony PSP. However this creates a file which is saved to my computer in mpeg-4 format which will not burn to my DVD. I am using a Blue Ray burner which looks as if it will only take MP3. Any suggestions?

I haven't actually done a BluRay yet - waiting to get everything right and,
hopefully, will be able to put more than 1 movie when all is finished!
That's my next challenge. I initially used Share/Disc to burn the DVD with,
I thought, all the settings for widescreen. It has always worked OK in
Pinnacle. When I lodged the problem with tech support they sent me
instructions using the Sony PSP. Interestingly I use a Sony camera, have a
Sony disc burner plus Sony TV and Playstation so you'd think they'd all talk
to each other!!!

Are your creating and burning your DVD (or is it a BluRay disc?) from
Premiere Elements by choosing Share/Disc?
If so, it should produce a widescreen disc.
Sometimes DVD players don't automatically read home-burned DVDs as
widescreen and you have to manually switch it. But at the very least the
video should be either letterboxed or stretched.

How do you retrieve deleted purchased movies and backing up purchased movies in iTunes 10.5.3?

I'm hoping that someone would be able to assist me. I've naively deleted some purchased movies from my macbook air believing that I could re-download them from the icloud, as you can do with TV shows, music, apps and books, at a future date, but it seems like I'm wrong. I was wondering if someone can point me to a solution to this issue.
Secondly, now that I've discovered that am unable to restore these movies, I was wondering if someone can point me in the direction of how to backup my purchased movies to a Data DVD, as used to available in iTunes 10.3, but is no longer available in iTunes 10.5.3. According to Apple's technical support (knowledge base), I need to purchase a Time Capsule.
Any help would be much appreciated. Kind regards,
James.

Burn Purchased Movies To DVD from Itunes

How do I create a DVD from movies that I purchase from Itunes? It allows me to burn a DVD that another computer can play but not a DVD Player.

Does that mean the only way to watch my purchased movie on TV would be to hook the computer to the TV??
You can use a computer or an AppleTV or an iPod/iPad/iPhone connected to the TV.

So what is meant here is spend more money - wrong answer.
For that reason most people prefer to buy movies on DVD. They are easily shared, foolproof, and super easy to use. I love Apple TV and iTunes for music and TV shows, but I would never purchase a movie that was not on an optical disc.
When I head out-of-town I can grab a couple of DVDs to watch on my new MacBook Pro during the flight. Easy and uncomplicated.
DVDs offer another advantage. You can watch your movie without depending upon a complicated and delicate infrastructure. Also, movies are frequently censored for political correctness (Star Wars is a recent example). Despite public pressure for a release, the Disney movie “Song of the South” remains banned. Even cartoons like Johnny Quest are now censored. Only people who purchased physical copies years ago have them as they were originally produced.
When you possess a physical copy of the movie the PC patrol can't mess with it.

Just trying iMovie, I am trying to burn a dvd it's pointing me to iDVD is that a program that I need to purchase?

i took video of a friends wedding and uploaded it to my imac 27. I want to burn a dvd of the video that i captured. iMovie is pointing me to an application iDVD is this a program that I need to purchase? I am running Lion on this iMac27.

Unfortunately, Apple discontinued iDVD; but, you can either try the other poster's suggestion or buy a retail iLife 11 disk at many online resellers. iDVD is the best software available with its customizable menus and themes to take your project from amateur to pzazz! Most Apple stores no longer have the retail iLife 11.
And, when you want to export your movie from iMovie, use the following settings - they produce the best quality especially if you shoot your footage in HD: use the Share > Export using Quicktime. In the resulting window, use these settings (by clicking on Options):
