Create a DVD, Blu-ray disc, AVCHD disc, or disk image

You can burn your project to a standard-definition DVD or to a Blu-ray-compatible disc. There are
two ways to create a Blu-ray-compatible disc:

Use an external optical drive that supports Blu-ray disc burning to blue laser media.

Use a standard DVD burner and standard red laser media to create an AVCHD disc with HD
video content and menus. You can play AVCHD discs in Blu-ray players if they are compatible
with AVCHD discs.

You can also create a disk image (.img) file that you can copy to an external drive. You can take
the disk image to a disc replication facility or burn it to DVD or Blu-ray disc media at a later time
using Disk Utility.

Markers are added to the file on disc at 30-second intervals, making it it possible to use the DVD
or Blu-ray player’s remote to skip forward or backward 30 seconds each time the Next Chapter
or Previous Chapter buttons are pressed. Each disc format has a maximum allowable number of
disc markers:

Standard DVD: 99

Standard Blu-ray: 999

AVCHD: 50

Note: If Compressor is installed on your computer, you can use the Send to Compressor option
to open the project in Compressor, where you can add and name chapter markers using the
Preview window. For more information, see

Compressor Help
