Hello All,
First of all, I wanted to say that I really did try to find the answers to all these questions by searching this (and another) forum, but I had to go through hundreds of hits... so I thought I'd jst ask.
I have a Mac G4 dual 500 running Panther. I'm just getting started with DVD. I have a strong audio background, my wife has a strong digital video backround, and together we're gonna make some DVDs....
...if I can figure out which model, formats, and software. So, if any of you use a Mac to burn DVDs, and if you could be so kind to share you experiences with me, I would very much appreciate it.
These are my goals:
1. Burn DVD's to backup data.
2. Create simple DVDs via iDVD (or something similar).
3. Create more complex DVDs with DVDSP2.
My questions are:
1. Any advatage to the different formats when burning data CD's for file backup?
2. Apple's site states a SuperDrive is required for iDVD. So what is another simple DVD authoring program you gurus suggest for Mac? I've seen a few mentioned, anyone havea favorite?
3. What drives are compatible with DVDSP2? Anyone using DVDSP2 with their Mac and thrid-party drive?
4. Is anyone doing all three of these things with their burner, and does it not do one or more of these things well?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Dave
