DP,
It appears you have the video on your Mac.
You need iMovie and iDVD to do it, but iDVD will burn it in a playable format. Not every DVD player will play it, but that is because of the media you used. Some players will play Sony/Phillips/Verbatim, etc and others will play fewer brands. Verbatim seems to be the most compatible.
You may need to put it on a thumb drive and take it to one of your techy PC friends.
I could do it for you, but I'm in FL now until end of April.

I wouldn't know video if it bit me on my a$$. Today I saw BlackJack sitting on a table in the front window while a pretty good rainstorm with high wind was blowing thru. As I looked, I could see the power lines arcing and sparking behind my neighbor's house so I grabbed my phone and shot some video. I told them I shot it and they want a copy but the file is 289 MB's for 54 seconds!
I've opened VLC, iMovie, and QT but for the life of me I can't figure out how to compress it (or whatever) and/or to save it as a separate file to give them. It shot as an MP4 but I thought I had "saved" it in VLC but the file with the video name is a .m4v file (!) and it won't play in QT!
A little help? TIA.
