• 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 wasn't sure of where to post this, if you know of a better place, please let me know.
I have an iBookG4 which I know is very outdated, but it usually does the job for me.
I am a teacher and I subscribe to an educational streaming video site. We are allowed to download videos as they even have an icon to do so. I download using QuickTime.
In order to show the videos to my students I thought I could burn a DVD, which I did. However, when I put the DVD into my computer DVD doesn't open, but QuickTime Player does which is probably because I downloaded the video in QuickTime.
I do not have a presentation system for my computer and I was hoping to be able to use the DVD in a regular DVD player with the TV at school.
Is this possible?
