Roxio Toast is what I use. Have used it for several years without any problems. You can try it for free. Will cost you after free trial, but worth it. Others here on boards will surely offer suggestions, some for free. Check them all out and see what will work best for you in the end.
What do you want to burn that the built-in burning function can't handle? This will help point you to the software that might be best for you.
Yeah, I bought my first ever Mac 3 months ago and it doesn't have iDVD. I'm really enjoying it but I am looking for DVD burning software. I have various file types (avi, mkv, mp4) that I want to be able to drop into some nice burning software without the hassle of having to convert each individual file. I used Burn previously with mixed results. I did have to do a bit of converting and 1 of the videos didn't play properly on the DVD.
Any recommendations would be helpful. Cheers.
I have been using Burn instead of iDVD for years. It's simple, easy, open-source and free

+1 Toast. Have used Toast for 10 years. Haven't had the need to try other burning software on Mac.
