  • How to burn DVD on any Mac, iMac, Macbook.
    I'll show you how to do a Data DVD which is great for archive and playing the DVD on another computer.
    Then I'll show you how to do a playable video DVD which will play on any DVD player.
    For that, you need this free software.
    You can find it by searching Google. It's called Burn by SoundForge.

    I was in a time crunch and haven't made a dvd in years. your tutorial was perfect. Still stymied as to why apple has made everything so proprietary over the years. earlier generations of iphoto etc were much easier to use and being an elderly person I have very little knowlege as to how this real works. Again kudos for your succinct relatable tutorial

    Thank you much! Even this somewhat low-tech senior citizen benefited from your tutorial. And the free version of Burn worked well me to burn and verify dvd video that plays on an older dvd player. Wishing best for your professional endeavors!

    thank you so much for this, I was having huge issues burning files to my DVD-R and then the playback would be stuttering and all over the place, and now I don't have to worry about that.

  • @allisonmetcalf9875
    @allisonmetcalf9875 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Can you please help me? I have tried everything I know and I still can't get my burned DVD to play in a normal DVD player. I followed your video here and it allowed it to play on our xbox but it still won't work on the dvd player. I'm using at DVD-R and I have tried burning it at 2x speed and changed it from PAL to NTSC. What else can I try? When we put the disc into the dvd player it says playback prohibited by area limitations.

  • @colindunn9932
    @colindunn9932 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's worth mentioning that when burning a video DVD Burn provides a basic but perfectly adequate menu system to navigate through multiple files on the completed DVD.

  • @lyrebird9749
    @lyrebird9749 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks, this was useful but it would be great to know if you can make a DVD with multiple videos and a menu. I can't seem to do this with the Burn software you mention.

    • @anthony_galati_art
      @anthony_galati_art 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's possible that the video was shot upside down on the ipad and some programs may automatically flip it but not change the file. There are video editors that could do this to actually change the file.

    Hello! Just listened to this now, 3/8/2023--Can I pay you for a consult...I need help for my questions on DVD-R....Here's one: Do you have detailed instructions on the burning of your DVD-Rs; my partner in scanning and burning has not burned DVD-Rs before, and we have been discussing putting media/data on these discs. We are confused, and need to ask about this important detail for our ability to organize and determine volumes/capacities for the disks (we bought 25 to start :)
    ..I will check back here frequently. Really need truth...and I cannot find anyone locally. Rebecca
