title gives this one away.

basically what is the best bit of software for putting mpeg, avi, etc files onto a playable dvd disc. ive only ever used cyberlink power producer but the burning process on it can take hours of making folders before it even asks for a blank dvd.

any suggestions

Studio Comp: AMD Athlon XP 3200+ OC ~ 2.35GHz runs at 40 celcius idle and 48 under stress (aerocool GT1000 really works!), Asrock K7VT4A , 1024MB Dual Channel DDR 400, MSI Nvidia FX5200 128MB OC ~ 600MHz mem 350MHz core,80GB SATA + 200GB SATA + 120GB IDE, 7.1 Channel Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum EX sound and midi interface. 19" Sony SDM-HS95 TFT monitor - sweeet
Comp2: AMD Sempron 2400+ OC ~ 2.0GHz (Stable), Asrock K7S41GX, 512MB DDR 333, Onboard Graphics, 40GB Maxtor IDE


set of monitors on the way soon :P

I'd recommend checking out the threads linked in my sig for the authoring faq and related links to see what's available. Depending on what features you need on the DVD (ie movie only, simple menus, motion menus, multiple resolutions or aspect ratios) and your personal taste there may be different answers to your question. I personally prefer DVD-Lab Pro, but I recommend trying several programs to see what's right for your needs.

I like using intervideo win dvd creater. Easy to use, and it does not take 4 ever and a day unlike some other programs I have tried. It does still take time for the program to encode and process for a dvd player disc.

If you do not care for menus, try convert to dvd compliant format with VSO (free version), then burn with e.g. Nero:

Happy dvd burning!
