Adding movies created in other applications
Any movie saved in QuickTime format can be added to an iDVD project, but for best results,
export the movie as a self-contained DV (digital video) file.
Steps
Add movies to your iDVD menu
1. From the lower left corner of iDVD, click the Add button and select Add Movie. This will insert a
movie placeholder button on your menu.
2. Click the Media button to open the iLife Media Browser.
3. Click the Movies button.
4. Drag a movie to the movie placeholder button. This will assign your movie to that button and
change the default text to match the name of your movie.
5. Click the name to select it and enter the name you want to appear in your DVD menu.
6. Double-click the title to see a preview of the movie in the window. After viewing your movie, click
Exit in the movie controller to return to editing your menu.
7. Save your iDVD project.
Burning Your DVD Disc
Once your DVD project is ready, it’s time to transfer it to a DVD. This is a two-step process:
encoding your menus, movies and photo slideshows, then burning the encoded files to your DVD.
The time required to burn a disc depends on the number and the size of the movies and photos
used, as well as on the speed of your computer.
Once your DVD has been created you can insert the DVD into a DVD player connected to a
television, and watch your DVD on the big screen (or of course, insert into your Mac and watch it
using the included DVD Player, or most any PC computer with DVD playback software).
Tips
Watching your new DVD on your Mac or TV
After you’ve created your DVD, you’ll want to watch it. Try it out on your Mac using the DVD
Player program. DVD Player opens automatically when you insert a viewable DVD. Or use most
any PC computer with DVD playback software. If the final viewing will be on a TV, also test your
DVD on a DVD player connected to your TV. TVs can display slightly less of the overall image
than computer monitors due to a process called overscanning. You should preview your DVD on
a TV just to be safe, before considering it final.
If you plan to create multiple discs
When iDVD finishes burning a disc, it ejects the disc and prompts you to insert another blank
DVD if you want to burn another copy. iDVD burns subsequent discs more quickly than the first
one because the video has already been converted to the proper format for copying.
Using third party DVD burners
In addition to Apple SuperDrives, iDVD 6 allows you to use compatible third party burners.
Consider rewritable media when creating your DVDs
When testing your DVDs, consider using rewritable media (DVD-RW, DVD+RW) if your Apple
SuperDrive or third party burner supports it. If you find an error after burning your DVD, such as a
typo in a menu, or the wrong slides for a slideshow, you can fix the iDVD project and reburn it to
the same disc. After you’ve previewed your DVD on your TV and consider it finished, you may
wish to burn it to read-only media (DVD-R, DVD+R) to share copies with others.
Making sure you have enough free space on your hard disk
Before burning your DVD, be sure you have at least twice as much space available on your hard
disk as your project’s total size, to allow for encoding and burning. Check the size of your project
by selecting Project Info from the Project menu. The DVD capacity meter will show the size of
your DVD. For example, if your project takes up 4 GB of hard disk space, you’ll need at least 8
GB of free space on your hard disk to burn the DVD.
