Roxio Toast 16 worked beautifully on High Sierra, and it is the only app that allowed me to see many videos in a menu for youtube downloads. I typically burn about 15 4-minute videos, both PAL and NTSC. The advantage in Toast is that you can turn off automatic chapter creation so that the forward button skips to the next video. The disadvantage was that the app was limited to 32 bit. Toast 17 was updated to 64-bit and burns the same disks in only 20 minutes. However, in Mojave O.S., it crashes often, and corrupts Quicktime. I have had it. I logged into Roxio and could not find a new download after a tech instructed me to uninstall and reinstall Toast. I deleted all the preference files so that Quicktime works again, but now have to find an alternate app that I can like.
I have reinstalled Toast 17 numerous times in Mojave. The main Toast program is great, with more options than other apps except Wondershare DVD Creator.
--Plus: Can use vertical menus
---------Can change the background picture
---------It plays well in the DVD player.
CONS:
---It will crash for over 15 videos in the mix, no matter how much space they require.
---It will crash because of the ancient, unupdated Soundflower audio plugin that corrupts my other programs and changes sound output and input defaults....thereby causing other problems.
--It installs other programs I have trouble removing afterwards.
---Bloated.
Wondershare is the only other program that seems to have 64 bit support that gives the same options, but every time I encode it (even without Toast installed and a wipe-and-load), the audio is distorted. Until they fix it, I cannot recommend that program. Bummer. I like it more.

Toast is a bloated application, generates an extraordinary number of coasters, and has exhibited few compelling reasons to upgrade aside from plain old OS compatibility.
In desperation, I tried Burn and it worked flawlessly first time. I'm not saying Burn is a complete replacement for Toast. Burn does everything that any burning software MUST do, and a few things that are nice-to-haves. I'm sure that there's some stuff that Toast can do that Burn can't. But there is really no reason on Earth why you should not try Burn first before you fork out money for Toast. Because you may not ever need to. And that's a good thing.
I have Toast Titanium 10 with the Blu Ray plugin but I really have no idea how to work it. From what I see from fiddling with the program, you can't burn a disk using a protected DVD, you first have to decrypt them using programs similar to MacTheRipper to get the Video_TS folder. If you have any idea how to use this program to burn a Blu Ray or DVD using a Video_TS folder from a DVD, please comment. Although they should have a tutorial somewhere, they should atleast give you an idea of how to use it.
