Converting .mov to .cdr for viewing

Hello all,

I have a bunch of .mov files of training videos, but I can't play them on my computer screen and use the program at the same time, so I want to play them on my standard DVD player on a TV.

What is the process through which I can get my .mov files to a .cdr DVD Master format?

iMac 24" 2GB RAM, Early 2008 Model, Mac OS X (10.5.4)

You do not want to convert them to .cdr, you want to convert them to DVD movie format, something quite different.

You can search on the net for mov to dvd converting software for Leopard.
Versiontracker is another good starting place

I use Toast Platinum but there are others available. How good they are I don't know.
You can also do it by connecting the video/audio output of your Mac to a standalone DVD recorder if you have one.
