• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I don't have iDVD. What other ways are there to get my iMovie to a DVD? I have a DVD burner with Dragon Burn software but I'm looking for a program , preferably shareware(try it out before buying), to get my iMovie to the DVD.

ps. I'm new to the forum, but have been reading several posts. Looks like a great place. :cool:

welcome to the forums.
I think you can export your imovie project as a quicktime movie, or mpg. all you need is to get it into mpg format. if you export and get a .mov, use another app to convert to mpg, then use toast and burn it in the video tab.

You need to make sure you have a mpg-2 file and also a correspoding separate audio file, normally .aiff. You can use DVD Studio Pro to mux (combine) the two together and create a Video_TS folder which you then burn using Toast's UDF format option. To get your mpg-2 and .aiff files I suggest Compressor or Cleaner.
