It looks like the Reflections theme got borked somehow. If I move it out of the way, and select a different theme, the project works OK. Too bad there isn’t a “Safe Open” mode that forces a project into a default theme…

No luck in avoiding the strange iDVD crash on launch. I’ll keep poking around, though…

@Michael J.: I’ll try another account, but will have to futz about with permissions etc… so the other account can see the files. I’ll give’er a shot tonight, though.

The solution was not in iDVD but in iMovie! One of the movies I was trying to add to the project had a stray sound file in it after what I thought was the ‘end’ of the movie. I redid the movie to tidy up the stray, and iDVD started working again… (and perfectly, at that).

Try working out which iMovie project it is that’s borking the whole thing and then see if you can identify the problem. Feel free to drop me a line if you want more info on this.

Good luck!
