Could somebody please help

I'm trying (without success)to find a software program where i can "burn" movies taken on my digital camera to play on my DVD player at home. The files which i'm trying to "burn" are in .avi & .mov format.

Any help and/or advice will be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if it suits you, but both TMPGEnc Plus (v2.5) and TMPGEnc Xpress (v3.0 or above, now v4.0) can convert both AVI and MOV files into DVD MPEG-2
(see http://www.pegasys-inc.com/en/index.html).

More, TMPGEnc isn't very expensive and has useful 'project wizards' for encoding/convrting and so on.

Test it. There exist even other freware applications, but TMPGEnc gives outputs of great quality.

[Personally, I don't create DVD MPG files, but:
- DVD Video (M2V)
- DVD audio (MP2 or AC3 resampled 48 kHz)

and only LATER I author the products:

- M2V + audio --> (via authoring) VOB set + IFO + BUP

but only because I prefer to do so because I have a better contro on each phase (1 - encoding; 2 - authoring; 3 - burning) ].

Just to remind you, to open MOV files you need a 'plugin', that is, some little files you have to place in TMPGenc's directory ( http://www.afterdawn.com/software/plug-i...for_tmpgenc.cfm ).

For TMPGEnc Xpress I don't know.
Surely it can, I don't know if it needs someting or it can directly.

Sorry, but since you need administrator rights (on Windows XP) to run it and, since, I use my job's computer (powerful, but with some little limitations) I never tested it. I use TMPGEnc Plus v2.5, instead.

There's a guide in http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/ , but it's a little too complicated.
Try searching 'WinAVI guide' or something similar..

Did you try AoA DVD Creator ( http://www.aoamedia.com/dvdcreator.htm )? It's very easy to use. All you need to do is add the video files and then click "Start" to burn.
