Ok so I just downloaded some Entourage episodes and I want to burn them onto a DVD-R. I have no idea how and I don't think I have a program to do it.

If somebody could give me a program and a link and tell me EXACTLY how to do it I will ove you forever and rep you forever.

Ok so I did all that and I made the folder but now it won't let me burn it. The burn button is unpressable and I d/l another folder and it wouldn't let me burn anything either.

I have never had a problem burning cds before so I don't know what the problem is. It seems like it is not even reading the blank disc.

I just put in a Crue CD and it read it no problem but not a blank DVD disc.

HELP

I have ITunes and I Downloaded Sopranos from Limewire. I just put in a cd and hit the "burn cd" button on Itunes and it worked.

My guide is correct then.

How many videos are you trying to put on a DVD?

Actually Spilly if your DVD plays avi's then you should be able to burn the files as is straight to DVD using nero, or what ever burning pgm you use.

Check the specs bro

What I mean is - does your DVD player play avi files, most new ones do. It will probably have a sticker or something on it saying it is either avi or Divx compatable.

If you are just burning the avi files then you are just using the DVD for storage, so you will fit more than one or two on the DVD. At 300mb per episode you will get 14 episodes on a DVD as avi, ifyou convert them to DVD format (VOB files) then you will only get maybe 4 episodes per DVD.

So the eaisest way, as long as your DVD player will read it, is to just straight out burn the avi files to DVD. Just open Nero and choose (DVD-ROM ISO) and drap, drop the files and hit burn - make sure you choose no multi session as sometimes the DVD player won't recognise a disc that hasn't been closed.
