I am as rookie as it gets with burning dvd’s and I recently installed a dvd burner that came with nero express 5.5 on my windows xp os. I don’t have any problem watching saved video files on my computer but when I try to burn one, nothing happens (message= program not responding or program is being used by another application)after the file is encoded, which took 1 hour and 32 minutes.

I have tried to research this topic and became more confussed at the numer of conflicting suggestions.

Is encoding necessary on all files?

I am pretty sure that I have all of the codec’s.

What is the best way for me to produce high quality dvd’s with this nero express 5.5?

Any ideas on what I did or didn’t do to cause the process to become incomplete?

My burner does not appear to be on the nero.com website list.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Jason

Hi Jason

encoding sometimes necessary becuase if u want to play video on CD-DVD-Player you must encoding the videos format from MPEG or AVI to DVD-AVI format and it is 720x576, so if u have video on 640x480 or 352x288 it must be encode to DVD format 720x576.(DVD is MPEG2)

the quality depend on your videos if it capture well , i mean its actully on 720x576 when u capture it, the quality will be totally perfect even better than DVB(digital-video-broadcasting).
so its all depend on video quality

if u try to burn dvd-disc make sure what type of disc u use , maybe your disk is DVD-R and burner only support DVD+R ver.2 so you must use DVD+R not DVD-R (you didn’t tell us what DVD-burner u use)[Sony DVD-burner support different formats of cds , also Iomega, and new one MSI burner)

to expalin this point well check www.aopen.com and check DRW4410 burner..is you saw what type of disc it can write’Data Transfer’you will see it use DVD+R disc but if u check the 'Supported Format'[what kind of cd it read] u will see it can read the DVD-R but it can’t write on it.

if i won’t appear for nero program try to update it maybe 5.7 support it

If you see that nero is not helpful for you , try to use 'Easy cd creator 6’or if u always want to make Dvd-video disc try to use 'Ulead DVD moviefactory’it can edit/capture/extract to dvd-disc.

last advice .... try to update ASPI drvier for your burner [i don’t know what burner u use???is it work by IDE cable or SCSI].

PS. It turns out that Nero 5.5 does not author video, so I’m on to looking for a program that does.

U.N.C.L.E.: Scan the original AVI for errors:

If it has errors this is probably the reason Ulead pops up these errors (I haven’t actually used Ulead DVD Moviefactory before though).

I just bought a DVD burner and tried to burn a movie I downloaded from KAZAA.

The movie and sound play well on my computer, but when I play the burned DVD in my DVD palyer attached to my TV, i get a stuttering audio track.

Any ideas?

Are you talking DVD-to-DVD? If so visit:

http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/darktips/story/0,24330,3605537,00.html

If you are trying to burn an MPEG to play on your DVD player, you have to use the DVD/MPEG2 format. For all things video burning (compression/decompression, burning, decoding, DVD player stats (make sure your DVD player can even play the format you are trying to burn, such as DVD+R or DVD-R), software, etc.), visit:

Hope that is of some help.
