Movie Maker saving to DVD

[Guest]

My system has 3gb of memory, 2.8 mhz processor, 320gb hard drive. I have
completed a project with 437 pictures, 8 songs, with transitions for a total
estimated size of 182 mb. This project saved OK to the hard drive as a
Windows
Media Audio/Video file and it plays back OK in Media Player. I can't burn
this saved file to a DVD in Movie Maker, Media Player or Nero, can you
please tell me how to burn it ?

John and Robert: I am having the same problem saving a similar problem in
that I can save to a DVD+R but then no TV-DVD player will play it. The DVD
players say they cannot read it. I am rushing to complete a father's day
gift so any help would be great.

Apparently you have the Media Center Edition
of XP? Burning a DVD from Movie Maker seems
to be problematic and your best bet may be
to use a DVD Authoring program. Some examples
are...Nero, Roxio, Ulead, ProShow Gold, WinDVD
Creator, etc...

Also...some DVD players will not play a home
made DVD.

And the type of DVD can have an effect. I'm not
saying you should buy the following type but I can
say they have worked well for me.

Verbatim DVD-R 16X
