Can I burn videos . . .?

Question

My computer says it has a CD-Writer / DVD-ROM. Does this mean I can burn videos.

Answer 1

Yes It Does. As long it says CD WRITER you can make video's

Answer 2

You can't burn videos with that drive.

In order to burn videos your drive need to say DVD+/R or DVD +/-R / RW

You basically just have a CD writer with a DVD player there. You can get a good dvd burner for around $45-$60 US dollars

Answer 3

With a CD writer (which just means a CD burner,not a DVD burner) you can burn CD's but not DVD's. But you can still burn movies and videos. You just have to burn them in the form of MPG or MPEG files or for videos it's called VCD's or SVCD's. Go here: http://www.videohelp.com/
