I tried to do it as a Save as Disk Image and the Video_TS Folder and either would play.
I have copied several DVD's and the work perfectly so there is no issue with the project.
Thanks

I realize I posted this on New Year's Day holiday and perhaps it got moved down the list and hopefully this will bring it back to have someone comment on it.
Hope this does not offend anyone.

Explain what you're trying to accomplish.
If you're trying to create a disk image of your project the save it as a disk image to the Desktop do the following:
1 - first save the disk image to the Desktop.
2 - drag the disk image to the Flash drive.
To play that disk image from the Flash drive you must double click on it to open it and use iDVD Player to view it.

I tried it again and it worked this time, however:
The Project when I install in onto the desktop only shows a 336k instead of the 229mb that the project actually is.
It does that for both the "Save as disk image" and the "save As" in the file section.
My question would now be since the file size is smaller then the actually project, does the pictures I have stored on my computer that are in the slide show of the DVD need to stay?
In other words if I remove the pictures will the DVD still play?
The reason for the size difference is that iDVD encodes the media into the video DVD format which is a compressed format, thus smaller than the original files. iDVD only is concerned with the playing time of the project, not file size as it compresses the project to fit the DVD disk size.
