Hello Leo, When you are using iMovie there is an export that you must do. File>Export Movie and choose something like Video-CD or something like that. It will create a quicktime file. When you do this, you'll then drag the Quicktime file to the toast icon. Then burn your CD. This is the only way I know how to make a video CD. I don't know any other way besides using iMovie.
