Hello everyone, I am a newbie when it comes to dvd burning. I just got my laptop last night and it came with a CD and DVD burner. I figured out how to burn CD's and now I need to learn how to burn DVD's. The movies I have downloaded are in .AVI format. I bought some blank DVD-R disks at Walmart tonight. Can you tell me what programs I need to download to start burning DVD's? Are there any free DVD burning programs out there? Thanks for the help! Smile
for dvd you can try dvdfabdecrypter(freeware), dvddecrypter(freeware), dvdshrink(freeware), anydvd w/ the other programs, or anydvd(trail version 21 days) with clonedvd(trail version 21 days). i backed my dvd with anydvd + dvdfab decrypter + dvd shrink
oh and for avi to dvd you can go here http://www.afterdawn.com/articles/archive/convert_avi_to_dvd.cfm
hello, if you can afford it,try using convertXtodvd very easy to use,and it has a burn engine built into it all you do is load a disk in the drive/drop the avi(s) in,and click convert, the video ts folder will be burnt straight onto the disk after its been encoded,with great results! cheers!!
I am currently converting one of my movies using ConvertXToDVD.. You said this also burns it as well? Do I need to decrypt it somehow or does it do that too? How will I know if it needs decrypting?
hello erm,not sure what you mean? you have downloaded avi files,and are using convertXtodvd to convert the avi files so they can be burnt onto a dvd disk,which is all you want to do. btw,set the target size to 4300mb,else the avi file might be over that,thus it wont fit on a dvd disk and you will have to shrink it afterwards,before you can burn it you dont need to decrypt anything cheers!!
