    I have a few movies in CDs. They play with RealPlayer. I would like to back these up into DVDs so that they can be watched on DVD player. I have backed up some of my movies from DVD to DVD and am familiar with that process. I have an internal DVD burner which burns only DVD+Rs. I also have an external NEC DL DVD burner which can burn all types of media. Can someone give me a quick How-To on converting CDs into DVDs?

    If the files are .rm or .rmvb or you do anything where Real Player is involved, I'd get rid of it and download Real Alternative:

    Also it would be helpful to put the files through AviCodec or GSpot and post the info so people know what they're advising you about. :)

    I downloaded G-Spot and this is what it says
    #1 rmvb files.
    #2 .AVI
    #3 folders named CDI EXT MPEGAV SEGMENT VCD
    #4 a lot of RM files each one representing movie clips

    not used these but i think they are real media player files?

    #2 .AVI

    this you can use divxtodvd to get vob/ifo/bup for burning to dvdr

    #3 folders named CDI EXT ***MPEGAV*** SEGMENT VCD

    you need to extract the mpegs from the mpegav folder then load all 3 at once to divxtodvd to make 1 film

    #4 a lot of RM files each one representing movie clips

    again not sure prolly real medai again?

    ------------------------

    but over all look lesser quality files and to make to dvd will loose alot of quailty!
