I download some movies but when I tried to burn them RealPlayer said it couldn't. I know that on the forum many people have asked this question. I read a lot of them I was getting confused. I just want to burn a couple of movies to watch on my computer. My question is what do I need and how to do it? Please explein as simple as possible please?

I find myself wondering....

wondering why you want to burn them if you are watching them on your computer....

now, if you wanted to watch them on your DVD player, I could relate...Nero 7 is a very worthy program for converting .avi files to DVD format...just keep an eye at your local (or online) store for a sale, and then go get it...it really is the cat's meow..

I don't want it to eat up space on my computer that is why I want to burn it.

if that's the case, then all you need to do is to burn data discs of your .avi files...your player should be able to play them back via your disc drive...this is not always the case, but a fairly modern box should easily pull it off (older ones may cough and sputter)...

i.e. there is no need for any special burning process (conversion and such), just the creation of a simple data disc...
