Yes. However, I have not encoded using Toast. After reading this I 
must give it a go.

Direct quote from Toast help:

"Adding an iMovie Project to Toast

Toast adds the movie to the Video content area.

1.  Save your iMovie project.
2.  Open the folder containing your iMovie project.
3.  Drag and drop the iMovie reference file into Toast.

Toast adds the movie to the Video content area.

Heard bad things after my experience with Formac. Personally, glad to 
be rid of them. The good news for you is that the burner is a Pioneer 
and it is a quality unit.

Hope this helps. Good luck!
