  getting yellow triangle when trying to add movie to iDVD project

  Posted by Leonard Frankford on November 17, 2016 at 10:51 pm

  This just started happening with iDVD: I go to the Project menu and select Add Movie. It adds the icon with a yellow warning triangle. I am unable to type over it or add a movie when I drag a file to the icon. Anyone ever seen this or know what’s going on? It doesn’t do this with Add Slideshow, Add Text, etc. Only Add Movie.

  Not used iDVD, but what format is the movie that you are importing? This may be incompatible, contain errors, or even be too long in run time.

  I am using .mp4, but that’s not the problem. The error message occurs as soon as I drag the Add Movie icon to the layout, before I have even dragged the file to the icon. Like I said, the icon won’t even let me change the text to “Play movie” or something like that, which it always lets me do.
