Burning a video to a DVD disc?

Question

I used my camcorder to take videos and then i put them on Windows Movie Maker and made them look nice. I can't seem to get the video to copy to a DVD disc though. Please help if you know any free software programs or whatever, and be specific. Thanks!

Answer 1

You need to save the movie to your hard drive as a WMV file from Windows Movie Maker and then use DVD authoring software to make the DVD. I personally use MyDVD for most projects, which is available in serveral versions. Here's a tutorial on how to do it:

Answer 3

If your computer has a 1394 (firewire) interface for the camera, very often, the computer also came with some cheap video editing application.

Or, if you have an add-in card, that card usually comes with a CD, with a simple video editor, that can encode a DVD.

Sorry, I don't know any free authoring tools (that will legally encode a DVD), but if you look on eBay, you can find very inexpensive stuff like

Pinnacle Express

WinDVD Creator

Ulead VideoStudio SE

for less than $10.
