[MacDV] Re: external DVD burner

Am I understanding you correctly. This patch will allow an external 
Pioneer DVD 105 burner to use iDVD 3? I'm running a Powerbook Ti 667 
DVI (10.2.8) and use Toast as my DVD burning software. iDVD 3 would 
be a huge asset. I know of the issues of MPEG2 licensing and why 
Apple doesn't allow external iDVD authoring. This patch works around 
that?
Thanks in advance.
Rod
