Answer 1

Open Nero Vision, import it into the prog and add it to the timeline at the bottom. Edit it if you want then press next. select make dvd go throught he screens if you want to add a menu. when you get to the last screen, try burning it to a dvd, if this doenst work then burn it to a folder.



If you burn it to a folder then after its done open Nero burning Rom and select dvd then video go to the left have side of the screen and find the video files select them all and add them to the second panel from the left then burn it If it fail at that then check your dvd writer and the lense is clean.

Answer 2

Sorry, Nero is too hard for me!



DVD players won't play anything but dvd files, they're fussy buggers.



I use DVD Flick. It's much easier than the wonderful but complicated NERO. It does just one thing - it makes DVD's out of avi's, mpeg's, etc.... and it does it so simply.



DVD Flick also supports the MPEG2 codec, so I'd download and use dvdflick to make the DVD files, and Image Burn to burn the dvd (the two work together, both are free)



It will be quicker to do that than to learn how to use NERO!



In DVD Flick it's as easy as drag the file onto the window, double click it to set options like "chapters every 10 minutes" etc... , then press the "make DVD" button, and wait 4 hours while it does it. (I have an old computer!)



Who needs NERO?



SHAD.

Answer 3

use the new nero [NOT 9, ITS SUCKS] use nero essential, install it with full opion if u donno what the advanced features are supposed to do, in that there is a option called MAKE A VIDEO DVD it can select a huge range of formats n convert it into .vob format which can be played n any DVD player only headache is the awful time it takes to convert the movie into .vob format [the movie is literally played from start to end, u can see it in a mini screen while conversion in taking place] so be ready to wait for around 3-4hrs on average before one cd is burnt (depending on the size n duration of the movie)
