Hi all, First time poster here (though have spent hours viewing!) - have been driven to it by hair tearing issues with creating a DVD from some wedding footage taken a couple of months ago. Summary of the problem is below, any help would really be greatly appreciated.
- I have a Macbook with iMovie 6 and iDVD6.
- I imported Mpeg4 files and converted them to AVI files. Uploaded them to Imovie and created a video with a simple title screen and some fades to link the clips.
- Saved the dv file to desktop (approx 16GB) and also saved another, shorter dv file (approx 100MB) to desktop for practicing the output quickly before saving the main video.
- Dragged the dv file into iDVD, didn't add any themes or menu's and burnt the video to DVD.
- The DVD won't play in either DVD player or in home DVD.
I have attempted too many other methods to mention here and visited too many forums trying to find the answer. In any attempts that have played on the DVD machine the quality has been rubbish.
My question is this. How do I simply use the iMovie I have created (which looks great in the previewer) onto a DVD without loss of quality so I can send it to an ever more agitated Bride!
Many Thanks in advance.
