How do I burn a movie DVD on MacOS Catalina without additional software?

dvd-burning

I can burn a data DVD on MacOS Catalina but getting a movie DVD burned is escaping me. Is this possible without additional software?

A VIDEO_TS folder is what I am looking to burn... VLC plays this perfectly including displaying the DVD menu. How can I burn this?


No. Sadly, since Apple discontinued iDVD, there is no built-in way to burn a movie DVD.

Burn is an excellent free utility for creating audio, video and file storage on optical media.


iMovie used to have "Burn to DVD". iDVD let you do this and create a menu system. But sadly those features are all gone. Most computers no longer have a DVD/Blu-Ray burner/reader anymore.

Roxio Toast (commercial software ... so this ruins the "without additional software" part of your question) still seems to support this. If you bomb out on no-cost options... this might be a (non-free) solution.
