  burn a quicktime file only to a dvd

  Posted by Robert Hughes on March 4, 2009 at 9:45 pm

  Thanks for reading this and for any input.

  I would like to burn files to disks for later editing. Can I do this with quicktime files?

  I just used my mac to try and do that. I loaded a disk, dragged the 3.7 GB file over to the disk, clicked on the burn icon; and forty five minutes later, after it had claimed to burn the info to the disk; I have a disk that is rejected by my computer when I put it in. Not sure why, the disk just gets ejected with no error message or explanation.

  What are the proper steps to burn a quicktime file to a disk?

  Is there a better file type for this procedure?

  Any input greatly appreciated!

  I’d get Toast or Burn for this- it’s confusing in the finder.

  Thanks Noah; however, I would like to be able to avoid buying stuff. Can you, or someone, please tell me how to preserve quicktime files to a disk for future editing?

  Thanks!
