Hi, I just bought a DVDrw drive with accompanying software... I can burn IMAGE files fine, but I'm wondering how I can burn AVI and MPG etc files so they will play on a DVD player. Do I need to do something special here, or will creating a 'DATA' disc suffice... I doubt it will, personally. Any help gratefully accepted. |

You need to mess around with it before you can authorise it as a dvd. I can't remember what program you need to do that on a pc. give me a minute... |

You need some authoring software. Most DVDRW drives come with something. Try DVD Architect (was SonicFoundry now Sony I guess). You'll need to "legalise" it cos it's expensive. There may be some free-er one. |

depends on your dvd player, some will play mpeg/avis even xvid as a simple data disc. if yours doesnt , then youll have to convert . |

you can probably burn and play video-cd's - if it's a file under 700Mb Nero (for example) can burn a video-cd which plays on most dvd players. it'll not look or sound great, ofcourse. |

This is also true. My DVD player will play VCDs, SVCDs, mp3s, divx, xvid and possibly DVD too. All those except proper DVD can be played from DVD R data discs, or even just CDRs |

Made my first DVD and it looks fine -- I hadn't realised that, like converting mp3s to CDAudio, there is decompression involved -- I had thought I could get the 1st two seasons of The Simpsons onto a DVD! Now I realise I can only do that as a DATA DVD and now a Watchable DVD. |

Google for "winavi", dodgy use of english but it works amazing. |

It actually did come with software (two different programs that's why I didn't realise at first)... InterVideo WinDVD Creator 2. |
