OK...call me stupid, but when I try to burn a movie to disk I get a box that tells me "invalid format". What am I doing wrong? Does it have something to do with AVI...WMV...MPG? I am useing Nero Express.



Thanx!!

Well....it does the same thing when I try to burn an audio disk....what gives?? Do I need to download another type of player??

Maybe your codecs aren't up to date.
Try this link http://www.free-codecs.com/

It depends upon what your cd burner will accept. Read the manual of your cd burner. 2ndly, the video/audio format could be in a format that your system doesn't recognise b/c of codecs, etc (basically the same principle for your cd burner.) See http://www.videohelp.com/ & also have a close look at mp3 apps like: QCD (a free audio player that'll play anythun') & also Audacity (a free audio editor that'll recognise all you need-but don't forget the xtras on the same dwnld page.) Now you can convert your audio file to a format your cd burner will recognise (even edit/equalise it beforehand.) Best burner apps for burning video are (1) Roxio's Easy CD/DVD Creator & (2) Nero (most recent version only!)

Should I add, Roxio (previously Adaptec) are no.1's as far as cd burn tech goes. They've been around since before the 1st dvd & long before Nero. I think it's only a distribution advantage that means most people have Nero. Nero certainly can't treat a cd like a floppy disk & Adaptec were 'the' dvd burner app of all long before dvd burning became available to the consumer market. I've used all 3! (OR should I say 5?!)!?!
