"Burning DVD's"

Post by Howard Warehand »

I'm trying to capture online guitar hints and tips videos (You Tube etc) and burn them onto a DVD to play back on my domestic DVD player (PAL because I'm in the UK)to assist learning. So far Ive captured the online videos to WMV format OK and have then been using a program called CDburnXP which converts and burns any file into PAL.
When playing the "burnt" DVD+R on the DVD Player the system says "No Disc". If I record the same onto a CD-R with the conversion set to dual mode Pal/NTSC I get a very good video picture but a "choppy" sound.
You will probably guess that I'm not too familiar with "burning" dvd's so any clues or advice would be most acceptable.
Many thanks and Have a great Christmas.

Howard, try this:
Instead of using CDBurnerXP, download a DVD authoring tool called DVD Flick http://www.dvdflick.net/

DVD's need to be authored in order to play on any DVD player.

Teddy, Looks like the ultimate in simplicity. Unless you buy the $49 version, you get the watermark on every video, it looks like.
