    hi mrrod
    you can convert your mpegs 1's or mpeg 2's to vob files to burn with nero etc. on a dvdr.You need dvd authoring sofware ie.TMPGEnc dvd author(trial version available) http://www.dvd-guides.com/guides.php?category=dvdauthor&name=tmpegencdvdauthor

    you can also make them into a vcd just use the search for more info
    good luck and welcome to the club

    Hi MrRod,

    If you have Nero 6, you can give a try to NeroVision Express. It will convert your video files to MPEG-2/VOB and burn them to a DVD.

    hi mrrod
    nero does alot of things very well, and i use mine all the time. But ive been told nero's encoder is a piece of crap,by some of the more seasoned sage's in here,so i dont use it for that.
    Stick with TMPGEnc or mainconcepts,or the more higher end encoders(high dollars)and you'll be fine.(trial versions available for most)

    TMPGEnc:http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_encoders/tmpgenc.cfm

    mainconcept encoder download:http://www.mainconcept.com/mpeg_encoder.shtml

    good luck and blaze on clubbers
