want to make DVD with my old silent home movies

[Ninip]

Hi all
I hope someone can help me, please.
I want to make these for gifts for my children.

I have taken a silent home movie of ours and copied it onto a DVD from video
tape using my stand alone VCR and DVD Recorder/Player.

So now I have a DVD that I can play and watch on our tv. so far so good.

But now what?????

I want to make a finished DVD for everyone but would like to have music
playing in the background ( kinda boring watching old family movie without
sound)

I have WINXP Home computer large hard drive, lots of memory etc. Computer
is about a year old. I have 2 CD/DVD trays (1 is a burner)

Please can someone tell me step by step what I need to do now...........

Thanks in advance will await your replies eagerly.

What do you have on your computer for DVD burning software? Most 3rd party
software will let you add a audio track when you make a DVD. I use Nero 7
myself and have added audio several times to home DVD's. It's best to copy
the DVD to your hard drive and work with it from there.

You would need and external program like Ulead VideoStudio, Pinnacle Studio
or Adobe Premier.. as far as I know there are no programs built in to
Windows which would allow authoring of your own DVD.

Windows MovieMaker is free from

Your burning software should be capable of making a DVD from the
finished movie. Nero is good. I've just had a bad experience installing
Roxio CD Creator on a new laptop - it renamed my drives and I don't know
what else!
