I have a movie in an mp4 file. How would i go about converting it to be able to burn it onto a dvd? Thanks.
you could try using the guide, by alkohol, which is in my sig. Now follow it carefully and see how you go
gwen, sup. ive tried this with nero before, didnt have any luck. it converts to mpeg4 easily but i couldnt get it to convert from mpeg4 to mpeg2. the only way i could get it to mpeg2 was to use dr.divx to convert to divx(used best quality settings), then use nero to convert to mpeg2. i thought maybe someone had a better way, thats why i didnt post. nve3 wouldnt do it for me.
I think more than anything I just wanted to get some action on this thread, I know his last one was a disaster but I hope someone can help.
@Bestmiller Give my little guide a try and you'll be surprised how easy it is to convert/transcode AVI, DivX, MP4, ect. to DVD. And YES... Nero Vision does support MP4, here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/272946 Enjoy it!! @gamename MP4 and MPEG 4 (sorta like DivX) are two totally different format or file. I haven't done any MPEG 4 into DVD yet simply due to the fact that I've never had any movies in MPEG 4, but I'm sure there's a way around Nero (there is a possibility, say maybe Nero Digital?).
actually the mpeg4 video i had was already burned to a dvd buy a friend. he said he used nero to do it. i put dvd in and opened nve3 and it wouldnt open the file(import disc), i cant remember the error, it was a while back. so actually i dont know for sure it was a mpeg4 file, that what he told me. dr. divx opened it fine,and processed it. then nero did the rest. by the way it looks like ur running nero 7.0. do u like it better than 6.0?
@alkohol, hi again, happy to report Nero7 is up and purring like a kitten, once again many, many thanks. I have been using DVD Shrink and Any DVD now using Nero Recode. Great job.
@gamename Yes, I'm running Nero 7 Premium (7.0.1.4B) and loving it. I switched to Nero 7 Premium as of late October 2005 and I've never had any problems/issues whatsoever. So far Nero 7 has never let me down, it's been burning flawlessly. As much as I love Nero 6 Ultra (6.6.0.18) and hate to upgrade, but I must say... Nero 7 has improved alot, from my perspective point of view -- it's encoding/transcoding engine are much faster, yet still produced great quality pictures in results.
@gwendolin You're welcome, you're welcome. Glad I could help, and I'm glad that everything went smoothly for you. Enjoy it!!
ill have to check into it. im still using nero6. do u know if i can get a trial of nero7, if i already had 6.0 installed?
I would recommend the Upgrade. I did mine just prior to Christmas after running trial for a while.results..very happy!! @gear 79, welcome. Good to see the OLD CREW helping out our favourite JM.
@gamename You can try here http://www.nero.com/nero7/enu/nero7-demo.php Out of curiosity, how long did you had Nero 6 Ultra? Yep, like gwendolin said, I'm more than happy and satisfied with my Nero 7 at the moment. So far, I haven't seen any bugs or issues yet. I guess I'm a Nero-holic, I primarily used Nero for all of my dvd burnings (even backing up PS2 games). The only programs that I used besides Nero are DVD Decrypter, DVDFAB Decrypter, VobBlanker and PgcEdit. Nero ShowTime <> to watch all of my movies (AVI, DivX, Original DVDs and backup DVDs) Nero Recode 2 <> to encode/transcode DVD9 to DVD5 (DVD-R and DVD+R) Nero Digital combo Nero Recode 2 <> to transcode/import movies into IPOD Nero Burning Rom <> to burn DVD movies and PS2 games Nero Express <> to burn music CDs, DVD movies and PS2 games Nero Vision 4 <> to convert/transcode AVI, DivX, MP4 into DVD
i tried to update mine from 6 to 7 but would not allow me, and i've had nero for about a year. i'm in no hurry for 7... but if alkohol says its good, then his word is as good as gold.
I tried Nero7, did not like the way it defaulted my video to showtime, inspite of my unchecking the boxes! I hate a prog telling me what to do, so I went back to Nero6. I do not like the interface on showtime, you have to use a Goddammm microscope to see the buttons. I much prefer Windvd4 or 5. Not impressed with Nero7.
