i was about to burn an AVI file to dvd file in Nero 6..when i add the AVI file, it would not open but the size of the video would just show up..i tried to wait for it but then the video does not show up. i tried other files, it worked. but there are two files that would not show up..what to do?? i'm really desperate to finish these movies so that i can watch them on dvd..
i dont know wat version is it because wen i bought the dvd writer it was already free..yes, i can play the AVI file in my comp..i already put sub in it..but wen i try to burn it, it doesnt show up..
I'm not the Nero expert, far from it, but I seem to think the recommended (i.e., most bug-free) version of Nero 6 is 6.6.0.18. There might be a download link under the Software tab here.
BEFORE UNINSTALLING your current version, go back to Nero Smartstart, click on the "fire" button (where you got your version numbers) and click on the serial number tab and WRITE DOWN YOUR SERIAL NUMBER(s). More than likely you have an OEM version of Nero which doesn't have the serial number written on the disk/envelope/jacket. I'd do this anyway and put it in a safe place, "just in case".
If you do decide to upgrade, besure to use the Nero Clean tools after doing an uninstall and before installing the new version.
Beside that, I think there is a possibility that the 2 AVI files that won't open in Nero might be corrupted. They might play ok in Media Player or another player with only a "glitch" or "ghost" but this could be enough corruption to stop Nero. I had a problem with some mpegs that stopped Nero cold.
Do you have another source for the AVIs? If so, you might try new versions of them before doing the uninstall.
