Hi all, I have spent some time looking through the forums to see if I can find an answer to my questions. So far I have made three coasters from DVD dics, and don't desire to waste any more. I have movies on my hard drive in avi and mpg format. I use Nero as my buring program.
What I've been doing is opening Nero to: "Make your Own DVD-video". From there I follow the steps of locating the video files I desire, and dragging them to the window that collates all of them. I have had no problems all the way through...I get the scene selection all done, I burn in NTSC format, usually at 8X speed.
The program works away, telling me it'll take 4 hours, but usually 2 hours into the process, the disc ejects and a failure window pops up. It then asks if I'd like to save a txt file of the problem.
Anyway, am I silly in thinking Nero would do what I desire that easily? All I want to do is take simple avi and mpg files, and make them play on my stand alone DVD for the TV. Thanks guys - sorry for this being so long. Here is part of what is listed in the txt file I saved - note the highlighted portion:
