I don’t blame you at all for wanting to avoid the headaches of new software.

Peter, according to Apple’s specs Motion 2 requires 10.3.9 so I wouldn’t suggest going back to 10.3.8.

Richard is correct – DATA RATE – and what he means by that is the CD/DVD drive cannot handle playing back full frame uncompressed video in real time. The data rate is too high. I assumed that you just wanted to burn a data disc in order to transfer the quicktime file to another computer, and for that it should work fine. However, to play back that file you will have to play it from your hard drive or suffer through stuttering playback from the disc. If you want to burn a playable DVD-video disc use iDVD instead. Hope this helps.

BTW Tim, when juggling cats do they always land feet first, and if so do you wear thick leather gloves?

If you just want to create a data disc with the quicktime movie on it do the following:
1. Insert a blank CD or DVD disc into the optical drive of your computer.
2. Type a name for the disc in the dialog that appears (if CDs & DVDs preferences are set to “Ask what to do”), or under the CD icon if no dialog appears.
3. If you see the dialog, you can choose an action from the pop-up menu and select “Make this action the default” if you want the same thing to happen every time you insert a blank disc. Then click OK.
4. Drag files and folders to the open disc window and arrange the files exactly as you want them. The names of files, folders, and the disc can’t be changed after the CD is burned.
5. Choose File > Burn Disc.
6. Select the burn speed and click Burn.This is straight from Mac “Help” under “burning CDs and DVDs from the Finder” – there’s lots of good info in Help so I suggest getting familiar with it. Good luck with your new computer.

If you’re able to get a good selection with the magnetic lasso of the figure you’d like colored just “inverse” the selection (you’ll then have the rest of the picture selected) and then desaturate.
