ok so i just recently downloaded 2 seasons of a tv show and i tried to burn them onto a dvd-r but i couldnt even fit one season onto the disk is there an easier way to fit them all onto one disk or fit a good amount of them because if i were to burn them this way it would take like 4 or 5 disks to do it.

Yes i think its possible to to that i think you can import them into imovie and then export them in a smaller resolution/quality and then burn it. But just so you know when you buy a season of a tv show its usualy on like 5 disks

yeahhh you can do that its quite simple. insert a blank dvd and it i alert might come up saying you have inserted a blank disk then on your desktop open it up and drag the files into it and then look for the burn disk icon in that window hope it helps and remember i like good rep
