Burning a DVD

[KYR]

I got the impression that your MAIN issue was a lack of capacity on your hard drive.

If that's the case, why worry about "converting" your movie files to DVD format?

If it's purely a "storage" thing just make data DVD's - depending on the size of the files you've downloaded you'll probably fit 5-6 movies onto each DVD.

Personally, I'd just buy a cheap external hard drive to solve the problem.

What he said. If it's just space you're worried about and you just watch the videos on your computer, there is no reason to go through the trouble and time to convert them to regular DVDs.

Do you have DVD burning software like Nero?

If so, just burn a "Data DVD" and put whatever files you want on the discs. Each DVD is 4.6 GB. And it'll burn 6-7 movies onto one disc in like 10 mins instead of waiting an hour or more per movie.
