I have some films which are vlc files and play on a vlc player but I'm wanting to burn them to dvd, so I can play them on dvd players etc. How do you do it

there is no such thing as a vlc file .. try again this time using that lump of grey stuff between your ears..

what format are the files?

DVD Flick can handle a range of video formats.
It will optionally create a simple menu and burn the disk if required.

But it's a media player (and has a hotlink provided by the site admins.. hence WHY it highlights.. no other reason) which handles around 50 different media formats from bog standard Xvid to exotic reversed streams .asf (M2S4-modified)

dvd flick can only deal with SOME of the 70 or so media types.. and from my experience struggles with a lot of the very exotic types found.. not sure if it even does vorbis.... just because vlc can play something does not mean a dvd authoring/transcoding program can handle the media type as input.....

ya boo .. see ..I do know what I'm talking about .. there is NO SUCH THING AS A "VLC" FILE .. apart from vlc_setup.exe, vlc.exe once installed and the vlc.ico which is the pretty little traffic cone on the desktop.. and those have nothing to do with video/media formats ;)

what "ol' grey matter" needs to do is use mediainfo to ascertain the type of file (or look at the stream info contained in the advanced info part of vlc) and then see if we can make suggestions..

I do appologies for my ignorance, how were you to know, I know very little about computers or players or files, I appologies to he who knows all wisdom and things computery.
All I wanted to know is how to get files which only play in a vlc player onto a dvd so I can play it on a errrrrrrm a DVD player.
So I will try to find some grey matter and let you know!!
Again please please forgive me for being stupid, (but how were you to know)

Use ConvertXtoDVD to burn them as a video
