How can iMovie 10.1.1 I burn a movie to a disc

How can I burn a movie to a disc. I have iMovie 10.1.1. Would appreciate some advice thanks.

Hi Kenneth,

I understand you want to burn a movie you made in iMovie on a disk. It's something I can help you with.

The options for sharing of iMovie will be Email, iTunes, QuickTime, image and sharing in line with the first three options allowing you to share at the theatre of iMovie.

To get it on a disc, you will need to export to a QuickTime file and use the Finder or a third party app to burn it to a disk.

To save the video in QuickTime, follow the steps below.

Create a QuickTime file

  1. Select a movie, trailer or clip in the browser.

  2. Click share in the toolbar and then click file.

  3. In the dialog box that appears, do one of the following:

    • Set the title of the movie shared: Click on the name above, and then type a new name.

    • Set the description of the shared film: Click in the Description field and type the new text.

    • Define the output format of the movie shared: Click the Format pop-up menu, and then choose an option.

      You can choose to export just audio and video or audio.

    • Define tags for the movie shared: Click the Tags field, and then type the names of tags separated by commas.

    • The resolution of the movie shared: Click the resolution drop down menu and choose an option.

      Not available resolutions are grayed out.

      Note: You can export a clip of 4 K or a movie in its native resolution.

    • Define the quality of the output of the shared film: Click the quality drop and select an option.

      To manually set the output of the shared film quality, click the pop-up menu quality, choose custom and made the slider to set the bit rate target.

      When you drag the slider, the estimated file size that appears below the thumbnail preview is updated.

    • Choose a compression setting: Click on the drop of the compress, and then choose an option.

    • Add your film for the cinema: Select the Add CheckBox Theater.

  4. Click Next.

  5. In the dialog box that appears, type a name in the field save slot, or keep the default name, which is the name of the movie, trailer or clip.

  6. Navigate to the location where you want to save the file, and then click Save.

    A progress indicator will appear on the right side of the toolbar. Click on the progress indicator to see the details. The indicator will disappear when the operation is complete.

    Once the action is complete, the movie opens in QuickTime Player. A "successful Action" notificationalso appears.

To burn with the Finder, what you need to do is insert a flammable blank disc. If you need to make multiple copies, I would recommend doing a folder to burn. Take a look at the following article for specific details on how to burn using the Finder.

You don't have other options when it comes to burning a movie on a disc. The next three links are a few third-party applications that I found in the Mac App Store by using the keyword "burn dvd" you might like more customization, if that's what you need.
