Burn some MP4 files to a playable DVD?

[Grateful11]

Anyway to do this with something free because it's probably going to be a one time thing for a relative that doesn't do CD's or DVD's, owns a tablet only but they have a DVD player.

Got Toast or iDVD? https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250721288

I got MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake.

Edit will be doing this on a 2010 iMac running Sierra 10.12.

I just downloaded it and tried to get it to burn it as DVD burn still burned it as a MP4. I'll have to check my settings again.

I've already tossed one DVD-R. I've got some DVD-RW that haven't the light day in about 10 years. Gonna try one of those this time.

Some DVD players will play data files, including MP3 and MP4 as well.

I would ask if their TV or DVD player has a USB. port. If son, it probably will play MP4 files thru that.
Some low end tablets will play media thru the USB port.

IF they have a tablet they probably have net access, so maybe put the files as private on YouTube and send a link?

How many mp3s? Most dvd players will play cds. iTunes (whatever it is now) still burns them. If under an hour, you can burn aiff (standard cd)

I got Burn to work just fine, at least it works in my old Blu-Ray/DVD player. I had the settings wrong the first time. Now put the blank DVD's and burner away for a few more years. miley-laughing001:

I thought about dropping them somewhere but that would be asking a lot of them, not very computer literate at all.
