Re: I have a stupid question Quote: Originally posted by carnage929 I am brand new to Limewire/ and file sharing for that matter. I want to download movies, Dumb question number one is? I need DVD-R/DVDRW blank CD's to do this right?? I'm sorry but I really have no idea. I can't download a movie to a digital audio CD used for like MP3 downloads can I, because I've tried that and it doesn't work. | You mean you tried to burn them on a disk? You can also burn them on a normal disk but you canīt view them on a DVD player. For example you can save a .avi to your disk but you can only view it on your computer. Quote:
Also, what should the file end with in a Movie format so that I can download it and put it in my DVD player that is hooked up to my TV?? .Avi,, files???
| It depends on your DVD player. Look in your description which file formats are supported (for example SVCD), as far as I know .avi arenīt supported by none DVD player. The only solution to look such file on TV is to buy a TV card and connect your computer to your TV. Quote:
I also have a selection in my buring software through Iomega, to burn it either as a MP3/ or WMA file. What is a WMA file? and is this the one that I choose. I don't have anything in my Burning software that says DVD burn or something as easy as that. But the software does say that I can burn as DVD on it, but I don't know how to do it.
| MP3 and WMA are file formats for songs not for films. WMA means Windows Media Audio.
I believe you need special DVD burning software (I have no DVD burner). Btw do you have a DVD burner without it its impossible to burn a DVD. A normal burner is not enough.
