Export to iDVD 5
So you’ve double and triple-checked your edits, previewed your movie, and added your iDVD chapter markers.
Now you’ll pass off your project to iDVD 5 where you’ll design eye-catching motion menus and burn DVDs to share with your friends.
Make absolutely sure that you’ve completed your iMovie project. Once you send your iMovie project to iDVD, you can’t make any more changes!
Export to iDVD:
- Save your iMovie Project!
- Select the iDVD tab.
- Click > “Create iDVD Project”
- iMovie may ask if you’d like to render certain effects. Click > Render and Proceed.
- IDVD 5 will open and the encoding process will begin.
That’s as far as we go here in iMovie HD. For a detailed walk through iDVD, please see our companion tutorial, iDVD 5 by Brazos Price.
