Nero burning problem

[renbrad11207]

I recently burned our class project to a dvd using the latest nero burning software. The file was a mpeg video file. When I put the DVD in my DVD player, the audio was ahead of the video and the video was choppy. I thought that it was just a bad burn, so I burnt it again on a new DVD and it still had that problem. I eventried burning a different mpeg file and it still had that problem. It has that problem when I want to burn it as a video DVD. If I burn the mpeg file as a data DVD if works great, but my DVD player can't play it. I would really like to be able to make video DVDs, if there anything that can fix it. Does the DVD just have a pause in the beginning that the DVD player can't read and the computer can? please help me, thank you.

you have to give more info on how you got to that mpg file. In general you need to use a software and create a dvd type of files then burn it to dvd. If it is like you explained the resolution must be low eg from a webcam or something. I suggest use a program like Ulead and make your dvd. If you want to use Nero use express or recode or go to cd burning and create vcd or svcd then nero will code it for you and if your dvd player supports vcd you could watch it. But find out specs on your source.
good luck

I got the mpeg file from windows movie maker, then I used nero, and that in turn encoded it into a DVD video format, which took several hours. The resolution I used was the highest possible in movie maker, but I don't know how that compares.

Problems like this usually have their source in the encoding process. Video and audio will usually be out of sync in the cases where the video was encoded along with the audio. Demux the audio and work on them seperately and them join them together using an authoring tool like Tmpgenc DVD Author.

Windows Movie Maker only outputs WMV or AVI, doesn't it ?
