What I want to do is join the mp4's and make a dvd.
Problem is, I've tried everything.....evvvvvvvvvrything.
I've tried using Pinnacle Studio, Corel VideoStudio 12, Windows Movie Maker and a host of mp4 editors.
Nothing I do works. Either the software crashes, or it doesn't respond.
Does anybody have anymore ideas before I waste any more money on software it looks like I'll never use?
Thank you
I doubt you've tried everything, and apps like Pinnacle Studio, Corel VideoStudio 12, Windows Movie Maker aren't designed to convert mp4.

Smokejump specifically told you what to try:

womble mpeg video wizard dvd. I use this on youtube mp4 videos to make my own compilations and it works great. It will let you edit/cut/join/crop/add a second audio track. I use it on my xp pro computer and it never crashes. Never tried it on vista.
Just make sure you have all the codecs installed. I use the klite full codecpack. Womble has all the codecs for mpeg files. But might need the other codecs to decode/encode other formats.

Excellent, this was the answer I'm looking for. I will try this. I use Klite's "Mega" codec pack myself so I should be ok on that front.
And for future reference.....
Avidemux works wonderfully at converting the mp4 to avi without quality loss. I use x264compression and mp3 audio on the conversion.
