How do I make a Movie DVD like a DVD with vids from my folder

[Guest]

Hi guys

I want to know how to burn a DVD that will play movies that are in my Videos
folder. I tried Sonic Record Now but it only copies DVD's. I have got tons of
DVD discs and Movies to put on them. I need help, and you guys are the best
for it...

How about posting to a newsgroups specific to video issues. This one is
for the XP OS.

Have you looked at Windows Movie Maker? It is part of Windows XP, and was
installed when you installed SP2.

Why would look at that, since WMM has absolutely nothing to do with
DVDs?

That will play in a DVD player? And without another program to burn
with?

From WMM help:

Saving and sending movies
The Save Movie Wizard lets you quickly save your project as a final
movie. The timing, layout, and contents of the project are saved as one
complete movie. You can save and store the movie on your computer or on
a recordable CD, or you can send it as an attachment in an e-mail
message or to a video hosting provider on the Web. In addition to these
choices, you can choose to record your movie to a tape in a DV camera.

This page of the Save Movie Wizard lets you select which movie saving
option you want to use, depending on what you want to do with the final
movie. The following options appear on this page.

My computer

Specifies that you want to save your movie to your local computer or to
a shared network location.

Recordable CD

Specifies that you want to save your movie to a recordable or
rewriteable CD (CD-R or CD-RW). Choose this option if you have a
rewriteable or recordable CD drive attached to your computer and you
want to save your final movie to a recordable or rewriteable CD.

E-mail

Specifies that you want to save your movie as an attachment to send in
an e-mail message. Choose the option to share smaller movies with others
by sending them in e-mail by using your default e-mail program.

The Web

Specifies that you want to save your movie and then send it to a video
hosting provider on the Web. A video hosting provider is a third-party
provider on the Web that provides a Web server location and hosts the
movies you save in Windows Movie Maker. Choose this option if you want
to save your movie so family and friends can watch your movie on the
Web.

DV camera

Specifies that you want to send your movie to a tape in your DV camera.
This option is available when you have a DV camera connected to an IEEE
1394 port. Choose this option if you want to save your movie to a tape
so you and others can watch it on the DV camera or on a TV (when you
connect the camera to a TV).

No mention about DVDs!

Nero Vision works just fine for me, it is part of the Nero package, it will
cost some $$$. I've never used a shareware/freeware one.

I like Nero too.

A minor point, but Nero *is* shareware. See, for example,
