Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I am a bit lost since Apple has decided to stop DVD Studio Pro.
What is the solution offered today to export projects from FCPX and create DVDs with menus, ...
iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017), macOS Sierra (10.12.6), -
High Sierra has made a lot of Apps redundant.
iDVD is another victim.
My method is to have an older Mac setup with compatible Operating Systems if you have that luxury for DVD burning etc..
Or boot from another drive with a compatible OS on your current Mac.
There is no need to have just your inbuilt system as the boot drive.

It is a shame that Apple has stopped developing DVD editing software. DVD and Blu-Ray are still commonly used...
I still have a Mac with El Capitan on which DVD Studio Pro and iDVD are still running.
Which one should I use ? My DVD will be duplicated either as DVD or Blu-Ray, shall contain sub-titles, and two languages for the soundtrack.
Thanks.
DVD Studio Pro, I don't think iDVD will do multiple language sub-titles like you want. But then again, DVD Studio Pro won't author Blu-Ray disks. So, there you go, a major quandary for folks who still use DVDs...
I googled "DVD authoring Mac" and got a lot of results. Check that out.
I've used Toast over the years and it always had limited DVD authoring. Maybe it has more options now. It's always been a solid app for me.
FCP X has always been very flakey for me in regards to burning a DVD direct from the app, so I use Compressor to render out the mpeg2 video and dolby digital audio. You should be able to bring those directly into whatever authoring app you end up using without having to encode again.
Good luck
