As of the latest version of iMovie, you can find the time by setting the selection point in the middle of a transition and noting the time. In general, I set chapters to the center of each transition in my movie. While the file is exporting I find my chapter times. I set the resolution to the highest possible for the source clips, the quality to “High” and compress to “Better Quality.” When I’m done editing, I export to a file.
I prefer the Simple theme, but that’s personal preference. I edit in iMovie, usually on my Mac, but it also works great on my iPhone or iPad if that’s where the video is coming from. I use Toast 11 Titanium with the Blu-Ray plugin to burn ( You can get Toast 14 Pro to do the same) on an OWC Mecury Pro Blu-Ray burner and a tool called mChapters from the App Store to set the chapter markers. This is not a free workflow, it’s probably possible to do it, but I’m going for easy, and if that means spending a few bucks I’m willing to do it. I present this simple Mac-based workflow to build a no-nonsense Blu-Ray or DVD with chapters.
Streaming is nice, but I don’t have the disk space for dozens of multi-gig videos to just sit around until I’m feeling nostalgic, and I often need or want to share a video with multiple people who aren’t technically savvy enough to stream it to their TV.

Since Apple killed iDVD with the on-board optical drive I’ve been looking for a way to archive HD video onto a optical disc for archival purposes.
