    this, most likely, is an AVI file. Using Nero Express won't do it! Use Nero Vission, here's a guide for you:

    and next time show a Nero log so we can see what's going on, located here;

    Nero 6 history log location: Program Files>Ahead>Nero>NeroHistory.txt

    Nero 7 history log location: Program Files>Nero>Nero 7>Core>NeroHistory.tx
