Did you make sure to set the size at 480 or 540 when sharing to file?

iDVD can't use HD video.

Yes have exported both large and standard with no success.

I have a similar problem. I went to an apple store and discussed with a "genius". I was told Apple is no longer supporting their iDVD program. They feel that burning movies to DVD is a bit old fashioned. I was stunned. While sharing movies online is popular, there is still a large population that use DVD's. I make home movies of my kids and share them w/ my parents and in-laws. Many seniors don't use computers or get online much and I believe this is a grave error on Apple's part to exclude this demographic. Apple should reconsider supporting iDVD for the forseeable future.

All modern Apple computers don't even ship with a DVD drive.

Those that still have a burner can still use iDVD.

Exactly the same as me. I send DVDs to my folks in England. For now I have gone back to using I movie 10. Works fine.

Just a waste of 15$
