    It looks like your file is an AVI or mpeg.
    You have plenty of choices to convert that to DVD:

    and of course, Nero Vision:

    Like Gwendolin says, depends on what software you have, and also how impatient( some software are faster, some give better quality)

    i use nero to create all of my dvds. I had to download a plugin to use the dvd converter. once i got that, you can just use nero vision express. just choose dvd and follow the steps. you can make menus and chapters and its really simple. i did a 700mb file in about an hour. Btw, my 700mb file turned into a bit over 4 gb

    you should be able to do that now. i did anohter movie today on sony dvd-r 8x dvds. if it doesn't work the first time, make sure its not bad media. look in some of the stickies about media about which ones are best. they all say taiyo yuden and i agree.

    @codyvonau
    First, toss those memorex discs:~)!
    Second, are you trying to convert the avi to DVD using Nero? What Nero version do you have? if you have nero 6, you have to use Nero Vision Express, if you have nero 7 you use Uero Vision 4. Are you getting errors, or what is it that doesn't work?
    Do not post your email address, is against forum rules.

    it really doesn't bother me personally if you post your email or not. It was just a friendly advice, as is against forum rules( you can get tons of spam). You can request an email by sending a Private Message.
    Gottcha about the OEM suite. Still don't know what codyvonau has, what version. Also, ConvertxtoDVD, it has a free trial and I hear is much faster than Nero and great quality(never used it, will give a try soon). Recommended by many experienced members.
