So, I've built my 'media machine', got all the programs (TV prog came with the video tuner card, video editing program for @Stupidos [that'd be me], Freeview prog that came with my Freeview USB stick, er, etc.). I can record TV on it. I can even edit out the adverts fairly easily! Plus I know I can burn DVDs.
BUT NOW...............................
What format should I make these tv programs (oh alright, it's Corrie. Ok?) to put on a DVD so that it can play in a 'normal' DVD player? Ieg, not on a computer!
Oh, and whilst you ponder that, what's best to get? DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-/+Whatever?

Once again, my learned Peeps, many regards, and I await your ideas in anticipation (so I can get on and do the bloody thing!! {:o)

459767 2006-06-01 23:44:00 Shouldnt matter what u burn to .

Most players SHOULD be able to play DVD+ or - .

And if the burner is Dual Layer, and supports most formats, it shouldn't be a prob .

Don't use DVDRW tho, if u want to play the DVD's in a standalone DVD player .

Some players may not be able to play DVDRW .

Well you should burn in DVD format, if whatever program you're using supports burning to DVD .

I use Nerovision for burning most things to DVD . BUT, you may have to purchase a "plugin" serial to get the DVD option .

(This serial is different from the Nero / Nerovision serial) .

I havent got any other DVD burning programs installed, so cant tell u what they're like / or what they do .

When i record from the tuner here, it saves them as MPEG2, (altho u can burn directly to DVD if u want to)

And all I have to do, is use Nerovision, use the DVD option, and burn them to DVD . And there's your DVD .
