Ok, so here's my problem. I downloaded a movie on to my computer. I would like to burn this movie on to a blank DVD. Whether it's the + or the -, I don't really care. I just want it on the blank DVD. Now, I've burned music I've downloaded on to many blank CD's and that is always very easy, but I've come to find out that DVD's are a whole different world. I just can't figure it out. Someone told me to download Nero and that it would walk me through it. So, I did, but it hasn't seemed to help me one bit. I've tried DVD-R's and DVD+R's, but for some reason every time I put the blank disc in my computer is buzzes for a little bit like it's reading it or something and then it tells me I need to put in a blank disc even though I just did. Then as if Nero couldn't get even more confusing I click on it to burn and it tells me that it's burning even though I don't even have a disc in there. I'm at the end of my rope and it's driving me crazy. If there is anyone out there that can let me know what to do I'd be very grateful. Thank you! P.S. Sorry about the post that turned into a book. : ) I'm just frustrated.
If you have d/l files then they are probably AVI format, heres a simple guide on how I burn my AVI and mpeg files to DVD, careful as some versions of Nero are "buggy". http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/356114/2104525
Yes you really need to tell us what format the movie file is that you downloaded. There are several different types that they come in. Several files need to be converted to DVD files so that you can burn onto a disc. Only video ts and image/cue files can be burned right away. Nero will convert avi files to video ts files, then you can burn.
Yes, I did, and it seems helpful, but there's a part of it where I click DVD and I did and then where it's supposed to say Make a DVD it only says make a CD. It doesn't give me the "Make A DVD" option. Some of the example pics have options that I don't. I only have the trial version of Nero. Is that why?
I was under the impression that all these cue/bin files had to be burned on a cd-r...I would prefer a dvd-r if poosible.
Yes, I have the Demo/Trial version of Nero. Is that why I don't have the "Make A DVD" option like the example picture?
Yes, that would be the reason. See if you can d/l this one http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe
Ok, I downloaded that, but it's asking me for a serial #. How do I get that? I put in the serial # from my demo/trial version, but it still won't let me click the instal button. What else do I have to do?
Once again, this is a Demo version, the only way to get the FULL version is to purchase a serial number from Nero. There are other programs you can use as a free trial, one being convertX, however the trial version leaves a watermark at the top of the screen. Heres the link for convertX http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_encoders/vso_divxtodvd.cfm
My movie is a dvdrip file. I have Nero, AVI2DVD,etc,etc. How can I burn to cd or dvd? Please lest steps this is my first attempt. Thanks.
You should start a thread of your own, but heres a link on how I do mine http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/356114/2104525
