    Firstly, what format did you download them in.

    Secondly, if your stand-alone dvd player plays VCDs encode the file to mpeg-1 VideoCD (PAL or NTSC) with TMPGEnc which can be downloaded from the software section of this site. Then burn it to Video CD with Nero.

    Hope this helps you.

    Ok, well to play on a DVD player the movie has to be an mpg mode 1 or 2. If your file is AVI then you'll have to convert it to mpg using TMPGenc.

    Once you have your mpg's use Nero to create a VCD, and that's it.

    If nero asks you to re-encode a file, that means it's not the right format. But don't use NERO to re-emcode cause it's shite. Use TMPGenc.

    peace
