Hi,

I'm looking to buy an external DVD burner for my new iBook G4. I've seen the following web site provides a hack to allow burners to work with iDVD:

Is there anyone here who's actually got an external FireWire / USB 2 DVD burner and uses it with iDVD??

If so, which external burner did you get? One i've found is:

Thanks guys... 🙂
 
Hi, I also have a G4 ibook, i purchased the external firewire lacie porsche model. It is excellent and highly recomendable.

It works perfectly with idvd and all the other iapps. No problems with toast or finder either. All in all an excellent little machine.

Hope this helps.
