ok, so i have a dvd writer on my computer but i havent used it to burn any dvds yet. i was told that i need to use a software to convert the files and blah blah blah.

when i download videos, i see a mixture of files. mpg, mp4, mov, asx, and avi. i've downloaded .avi files before and i can't watch the videos using the windows media player. why? also, i noticed that most of the complete videos run on the .avi format.

so how does that all work?

 

probably u don't have the codec installed. like div-x files they can come on avi, mpeg, ... format but u need to install a divx codec on your computer..

 

yea does anybody know where u can get the program to get past the dvd copyright and burn'em?
im having the same problem projectwrx

 

This thread should help

 

sweet! thanks, +1 to my dvd collection growing

 

if you already have the file, I think you just burn the .bin and .cue file. If they're just .avis you'll need a vid converter to get to SVCD and you need a dvd burning program.

 

if you have any technical questions, a good place to start out is:
www.dvdrhelp.com
they have alot of tutorials and FAQs
ywia

 

I also go to www.doom9.org

 

good info. thanks guys.

 

i use dvd strink to burn all my dvds.

 

can someone send me the program dvd shrink? That would be great

 

anyone use nero?

 

i found it off google. just type in "dvd shrink" and you'll get a bunch of site to download off.

Worked great for me.
