    Heya all ;),

    A recent, similar sounding thread raises an interesting question. Once Shrink or another software has your DVD project ready to burn, can one simply use windows own built in burning program for the burn via drag and drop or 'send to'/ drive? I realize there are better options available..I'm just wondering if this would work or not. Has anyone ever tried it? I did some searches but came up empty.
    Thanks, Doohickey ;)
    Happy Easter Everyone!!!

    I don't think it will work. That was designed for CD burning and not DVD burning. Give it a try but I don't think Windows supports DVD burning. I found this link in which Microsoft talks about DVD writing support to be included with their next operating system, Longhorn.

    Check it out:

    Hey movie_777,
    Thanks for the come-back and the link. I guess that answers that question. ;)
