You can use iMovie on the Mac to burn that vid to DVD using an external DVD optical disc player/burner. There are many brand options available and compatible with Mac if you google it.
Another software option is Toast by Roxio.
Here's a little guidance from an earlier Community thread on the subject:
Can you burn a dvd from iMovie with an ex… - Apple Community
As Keith Barkley said you'll need an app that will create a video DVD that will play on a DVD player. There are several at the App Store, some are free. Just search for "dvd creator". I use DVD Maker Lite - DVD Creator also from the App Store.
You'll need a blank video DVD disc and burn it at the slowest speed available to get the best burn.
It's easy, just install a DVD burning program.

I hope this helps.
Do you want to make a DVD that plays on a DVD player?
Then you will have to use something like Toast. iMovie can only copy video files to the DVD, not make a DVD playable on a player.
It used to be easier when iDVD was around. Sigh.
Create DVD from video and then burn video
