    Burning DVDs

    I am trying to burn a few mpegs.

    I used Nero express, and people are telling me I can also do that through simply copying and pasting the files into the DVD window (or drag the file into it).

    I tried the Nero way, and my television gave me this word, in red:

    AGING

    Obviously the drag and drop did not work either.

    And obviously I am doing something wrong.
    Can any1 help?

    Tobias

    VSO ConvertxtoDVD is all you need. It will convert / burn just about anything.

    Most dvd players should be able to play VCDs but DVD is superior.

    Nero Vision is what you're looking for if you want to burn a movie or series. It creates DVDs with menus and everything...Very easy!

    Thanks DSM
    Where can I download it?


    I dont want to get an error message again.
    Do you think my DVD will read VCDs or whatever is created out of my mpeg to cdrw? (Remember , I dont have a DVDRW disc, just a cDRW disc).

    As I speak I am downloading the one DSM suggested.
    Again, so you don't get lost in all the questions I rephrase:

    Nero vision was pretty easy for me and the quality was AMAZING (even when it said Good in the status bar cause I stuffed 3 1-hour episodes into 1 DVD).

    Yes, you should always BUY software...tell me my friend do you know what a torrent file is?

    More or less.
    Pirated software, with a keygen or some other sort of hacked software?
    Full version?

    Those are my guesses, and also my guess it is loaded with spyware and trojans

    I just tried with ConvertXtoDVD
    and at the very end (it took 9mins to complete the whole movie [mpeg]) it told me I had the wrong type of disc (CD RW, while I need a DVD RW)

    It seems I cannot do this ..Im gonna have to go to a store and get the DVD RW discs

    Well not if you know what you're doing, they're not . If they have trojans, people wouldn't seed them. You can also tell from the comments.

    Anyway, even with Nero Vision you need a DVD.

    Thanks guys.

    It does audio, video, etc. All sorts of other stuff I know crap about lol. I just use it to burn movies to dvds.

    But yeah, you need to go buy some dvd-r's for movies. and cd-r's for music.

    You shouldn't need a DVD RW. In fact i have never once used a DVDRW with VSO. I only use TDK DVD-R.

    Just remember, if you are going to be downloading torrents make sure you have a good anti-virus program. A lot of people post bad torrents.

    I normally go to
    http://www.mininova.org/

    The other members normally leave comments giving the quality of the movie and if its worth downloading or not.

    Also keep in mind, competitors will sometimes lie and post its a virus because they want you to download someone else version.
    Welcome to the club.

    What are seeds VS leechers, how do they work?
    Seeds put the torrents up....Do you become a source to be a seed?
    lol

    Not to advertise but if u use netflix im sure you get movies faster than downloading them and putting them on dvd disk and taking the chance that it may be damaged.
    How do you avoid damage in the middle of a humongous download?

    Even if its cut into ten downloads, how do I know download #x isn't faulty?

    seeds - are people sharing the file
    leechers - are not sharing

    When you search for a file you want to get as many seeders as you can as it will help with faster download speeds. You can become a seeder; when you are finished downloading a movie simply keep the bittorrent program open to help others download what you already have.

    Sharing is caring !
