Making a DVD

[Zaa]

HI

I am kinda new to the world of dvd burning ,only got my writer last week as a matter of fact.I have backed-up a few ps2 games so far ,but now i want to do something with dvd video.

I have some anime on my pc in the .avi format .I want to know how i can burn this onto a cd so that i can watch it on my ps2 or dvd player .And since it is more then 1 episodes ,how do i split them or does the player read them like tracks (in the case of music cd's).

Thanks

you're gonna need a dvd authoring program and it should be pretty self-explanitory. I use Ulead dvd movie factory 2.0 and I've had nothing but success.

There are way too many solutions to your question.

Ulead is a good option, but other prefer using 3 or 4 different applications to get the job done. My advice would be to visit http://www.dvdrhelp.com and checkout their tutorials, software and forums. You will find many answers there.

i've got a dvd authoring program and i am ready to start burning.jus a quick question tho ,when converting the avi to dvd type format ,how long should it take supposing the avi was 25 mins long and will the dvd type file be bigger then the normal avi ?
using ulead dvdmovie factory 2 and tmpgenc for encoding .

Encoding takes a long time. If I had to guess on a 25 min encoding, I would say it would take about 2 hours. Thats mainly depending on your processor and if you are multitasking.
