| 730919 | 2008-12-20 20:08:00 | It says Video Clip (.avi) in properties. 699MB. I wonder why I answered that ??? Unless it is straight forward I can't follow. The people who write these things have a mind set that is way off my mind set,and I am brilliant!:) So the movies can stay where they are. Thanks again lads. |

| 730920 | 2008-12-20 20:27:00 | Since it is AVI it should not be a problem to burn to DVD. Play it first as an AVI in likes or Windows Media Player or PowerDVD and make sure it is ok Audio and Video. To create a DVD with it just use Nero Vision or at worst Windows Movie Maker. So long as the AVI has not been created with some oddball codec you don't have on your PC then it should be fine. AVI is just a Raw Video Type but can vary depending on the codec used to create it. Windows DVD-AVI is a common one used for inputting DV from likes of a Video Camera. |

| 730924 | 2008-12-20 22:37:00 | The software you're using isnt the issue. If it was, it probably wouldnt have worked at all. The fact it stopped 1/3 the way through indicates its either an issue with corrupt output from the application (And it would have probably alerted you during the conversion process). This leaves a problem with the burn itself, which seems the most likely issue. Try burning it onto a different brand / type of media. Are you using +R or -R disks? Also, burn it at a slower speed. Remember that just because you select 2x or 4x speed, doesnt mean it specifically will, you need media that supports being burned at that speed also. What speed was it burned at? What media? What brand is your DVD writer? |

| 730925 | 2008-12-21 01:03:00 | Cicero did you try burning at a slow speed. I have come across things many times that will only give good results at slowest possible burn speed. 2x 4x max sometimes works fine. | Bantu (52) | ||
