Hey,
I just bought a DVD burner, and I was wondering how I can burn the movies so that they will work on my DVD player downstairs?

Thanks

are these copyrighted videos from the internet?

DONT ANSWER THAT!

we're not allowed to discuss illegal activities so just say its a home video

actually it isnt illegal, its a munch of pranks me and my friends did on film

cool! OK, is the film already in an .avi or mpeg format? (if not transcode it) Do you have Nero? open it and use the onscreen instructions (switch to easy mode if need be) and create a closed session disk. Use the help file for more info. Dont have Nero? use Roxio. dont have it? you're in trouble

jk

how is the video encoded?

is it in divx?

**timhooper@rogers** · October 9th, 2004, 09:58 PM

its an mpeg

and I don't have any of those programs...I have NTI DVDMAKER...but I could have Nero in about 40 minuits

Is it possible that my DVD player is too ghetto to play the DVD's that I burn? its not a very good one?

It's always possible. One of the DVD players I had wouldn't play purple DVD-R so I had to ask the store assistants what color the disks were.

Anyway, use videohelp.com to find if your player will play these formats.
