[DM-MUG] Help, quick, plz? IDVD, need burn

[John Robertson]

Burning a CD for video is not a good idea for many reasons (quality,  
compatibility, etc) so I'd like to give you a couple other options.  
If you have iDVD 5 or higher, you can purchase an external DVD burner  
that is Mac compatible. Alternatively, you can export your movie to a  
quicktime file and save it to a flash drive (check the size of the  
file it creates and get a large enough one). This can be copied to  
any PC or Mac laptop with a video out and played using quicktime.  
Connect the video out to a projector or TV and your good. Whatever  
method you use, test your setup asap to make sure it works well.
