Saving Multiple Projects to DVD

[Guest]

I've made several slide shows in the Windows Movie Maker. I am trying to
save them all to a single DVD, but I can't figure out how to. I've tried
using Nero to burn a DVD, but the slide shows aren't a file type that Nero
recognizes. I can make a DVD through Windows Movie Maker, but I can only put
one slide show on the DVD, when I want to put seven total on it. Any help
would be appreciated!!!!

I think you need to update your nero into nero 7 premium, download this new
nero at www.nero.com

And the DVD plug-in that's included with a MCE2005 system is a 'one movie -
one disc' feature. You need the higher level DVD software to have multiple
movies.

I have found that Sonic My DVD also works very well for this purpose. It
even allows you to create menus. I was fortunate in that it came bundled
with my PC - I think this is still done in some instances if your PC came
with a DVD Read/Writer. You may want to see if your system came with
something similar.

I have an older version of MyDVD which doesnt allow for menu creation.
However, I make smaller movies and import them separately. Basically what
Craig needs to do. Import the separate saved movies , into a DVD authoring
program.

Craig, make sure you save your movies not just your project!!

All good suggestions. Let me add my own.
If Nero isn't recognizing the WMV file then I am assuming that you either
have the free trial download of the program or a crippled version that comes
bundled with DVD Recorders etc... In either case the program need to
actually create and burn a DVD (Nero Vision Express) is not likely to be
included.
The majority of the "better" DVD Authoring programs out there offer free
trial's to download and they will work to create and burn your DVD. Check my
website in the "DVD Programs" section for a list as well as links for
downloading the trial versions.

OK everyone...thanks for all of the suggestions! Originally, what I did was
had about a 45 minute slide show of all of our pictures we took from our trip
to Walt Disney World this year. Well, after I finished the project and tried
to save it, the project was too big to save. So, I figured I would divide it
up into several smaller projects, and save them seperately. But like I
pointed out in my last post, I couldn't get it to work. So, here it was I
did, and if anyone can tell me why it worked, I would love to know! I opened
the first project, and then imported each project after that, in the order I
wanted them to show on the DVD. I didn't do any less special effects when I
did smaller projects. It was basically the same big project, only I combined
the smaller ones into one big one in the end. Go figure......But I think I
will try some of your suggestions on future projects though. Thanks to all
for the help!!!
