ok i know yall get alot of these ?'s. But im a newbie, so here it goes. Ive downloaded from WinMx. I saved my movies on a standard cdrw/cdr disc. I bought Mysonic dvd and put it in. now i need to convert it to play in my home dvd player i dont know nothing about ripping or encoding so could someone pleeese help me and tell me step by step what i need to do
Im betting the files you downloaded were avis. If thats the case, then your options are to either buy a dvd player that supports mpeg-4(avi) playback, or re-enocde the file to a format your dvd player can play. Youll probably choose the latter, so here are a couple of guides you could take a look at: http://www.dvdrhelp.com/tmpgenc.htm http://www.afterdawn.com/articles/- VCD and SVCD section And take a look at this guide if you experience any problems during your re-encoding. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/40101 Good Luck.
thanks for the info, now im still trying to do it the right way, its my first time so wish me luck, because ive been tryingeverything. so your saying i just have to put the cd in and re-encode using tmpeg?

You could do it that way, but itll take a longer time. Its better if you copy the avi to your computer and then re-encode with TMGEnc.
