Well, if you just want to copy and paste your videos to the blank discs, and wanting it to be able to play back on DVD player, that’s not going to work. Reasons have two. The first one is that MOV is not supported by a DVD player. The second one is that you still have to have the burning processor and then you can have your videos successfully on the DVD disc.

As a result, how can you burn your MOV to DVD and make them playable with a DVD player? To do the burning work, you can just make use of iDVD.
