As I do not know what type of video files you use I cannot give you very specific advise.\n\nHowever, goto:\n\nhttp://www.download.com/DVD-Tools/3150-7970_4-0.html?tag=dir\n\nIt is download.com's DVD tools section. Have a look for a program that burns your type of video file (ie. avi,mpeg etc.) to a DVD. All the programs on this site are either free or free to try. The free to try one sometimes have some limitations on use so be sure to check for details on the download page.\n\nJust to let you know DVDs usually take a long time to burn I usually just watch them on the computer.\n\nHope this Helps!

I have use alot but it all depends on the type of dvd player you have, some dvd don't connect with the type of file you have.  Try (cucusoft.avi to vcd dvd mpeg converter lite). Alot of dvd players will not play avi files and that is where I was getting stuck at. this will convert a file into a dvd format and then you can use a burner to burn it to a dvd disk that will work on you player, you can use nero after you converted it to burn it. Good Luck

DVD videos are in the file format .VOB.\n\nYou can save a disk image the same as a CD, though - .iso, .daa, .bin all work - you can then burn that image to a new DVD or mount it as a virtual drive with something like daemontools and access the content.

I use AVS Video Converter.  It can covert most formats of video files to a DVD player compatable one.  I don't know how much it costs (I didn't get mine one of the most legal ways)\n\n\n*cough*try downloading it off Ares or LimeWire.  Make sure you get a serial number with it*cough*

You mean "DVD burner"?  A recorder is a stand alone unit used with your TV.\n\nAnyhow...\n\nWhat I use is Windows Movie Maker, which is part of Windows XP to record from my camcorder to my computer.  I can then edit the movie to my liking and save out the finished video to my drive.\n\nAt that point, I use Nero to burn the video files to my computer.

I have actually done exactly what you want.  Here's the short answer:\n1.  Buy a video capture card.\n2.  After installing it, use the software that comes with it to record video.\n3.  Play the video you want to record (like a VHS tape).\n4.  After the tape is finished, you'll have to stop the software.\n5.  Repeat for each video tape.\n\nLonger answer:\nI bought a PCI video capture card.  As long as it can do 640 by 480 or 720 by 480 you're good.  Cheap ones are less than fifty bucks.  More expensive ones just come with better software.  You can get the software seperately.  A cheap one will just record to MPEG-1 or something weak like that.  The better ones give you more options of file type.  when I did it I didn't have a DVD burner, just a CD burner so I chose options that ended up with ugly quality.  I plan to go back and do it again sometime now that I have a DVD burner so I can use the highest quality settings.  By the way, as long as you're doing this for your own use only, I think it's perfectly legal.

Download FlaskMpeg\nor\nAutoGK\n\nit will turn your dvd files into AVI files\nthen import that AVI file into Windows Movie Maker. Create your movie and choose WMV as your format.

If your nero will burn DVD's, it just won't burn AVIs, then the cheapest thing to do would be to go to...\n\nhttp://www.tmpgenc.net/\n\nYou can download a free convertor there that will convert your AVI to an MPG. Your Nero should be able to handle those just fine.\n\nDVD's use a modified high throughput MPG format.

first you need to rip the dvd with dvd decrypter ... then convert it to max quality avi with autogk ... then u can convert it to vcd with winavi, canopus procoder, or tmpgenc ... this method produces the best quality vcd in my experience and is simple .. takes alittle time though.

what do you mean by DVD Decoder? do you want to rip your DVDs to videos? if yes then you can try DVDx. Be warned though that ripping a DVD is illegal unless you own them (could be illegal even if you do own them, I am not a legal expert).

I personaly use Allok AVI to DVD... I use it all the time and it works very well as a AVI to DVD converter. It keeps some good quality as well\n\nYou can download the trial version here\nhttp://www.alloksoft.com/avi2dvd.htm\n\nI ended up getting a hacked version off of limewire

Use a DVD burner like NERO to encode the downloaded files and burn them on to a CD. Make sure that you burn it as a Video DVD And not as a data DVD. For downloading or buying NERO go to www.nero.com
