One option is to export it as a QuickTime movie: https://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.1/index.html?localePath=en.lproj#/move6e0cb 2ad


Then, specify the USB flash drive as its destination.

However the DVD accepts QT movie, so I will finished DVD try to switch to USB flash drive.


It should work exactly that way. If you can export it to your Desktop and open it with QuickTime on your Mac, you should also be able to drag that same QuickTime movie to a USB flash drive or anything else, and open it from there.


You might need to format the USB flash drive. Use Disk Utility to do that. Choose a Mac OS Extended format, unless you want to give that flash drive to a Windows PC user.
