what do I replace my iDVD with

You can still purchase older versions of iLife with iDVD still on them. Look online for iLife '09 or '11

Amazon.com will have these

Or Try

Burn

or

Roxio Toast

I've had good results using miDVD.

You're title says 'my' iDVD. Do you have a copy from a previous version of iLife?

If so, unless it is so old as to be a PPC app, the copy of iDVD you have should continue to work.

iDVD is the best by far.

Yes, there are other programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.

With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.

IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.

IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40. (works with all Mac OS 10.5 and newer.)

If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.

Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:

This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:

You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

OT

This is good to know.

Interesting - does that app have customizable themes?
