ConvertXtoDVD or DVD FLick and make a DVD-VIdeo and burn on DVD.

But PLEASE change the topic subject, it should describe the topic and not just plz can you help.

[Clato]

THANK YOU,Baldrick, MAY try one of thse links since, have no idea what to click on in Port Tv, 9as pict shows what options & also change subjct to ????? converting a cd file or ??

[Clato]

Baldrick, well I "'TRIED"" the DVD FLICK, that wasn't any good,kept telling me not enough room on a DVD (clean 4.7 GB disk)

MAYBE someone else can help me, figure out what to use & how to burn using Port Tv options. onto either a cd or dvd to play in standalone cd/dvd player or how to cover the above to play

[Clato]

looking for some help, plz

[powerpc123]

If the file details are as you mentioned, DVDFlick should handle the conversion quite easily.
Are your project settings > general tab set to a target size 4.3GB?
When exactly does it tell you "not enough room on a DVD"? Can you please post a screenshot?

[Clato]

hello power pc, this is what i did & the results

[powerpc123]

Hmmm, that's interesting. If you could open that dvdflick.log file and post or pm me the text I can have a closer look at what happened.

In the meantime, if you have an immediate need to create your DVD, I would encourage you to try, as the previous poster suggested, ConvertXtoDVD.

Link to the last Free version (a bit dated but may still work fine with your file)

POWERPC AM redoing all again & WILL SEND YOU,THE TEXT, SO FAR nothing has worked as far as trying to put cd song/music & pict video onto either cd or dvd and have it play in stand alone cd/dvd player.

Isn't this thing already DVD compliant? The only thing I haven't seen is the framerate. If it's 29.97fps, he should be good to go for making a DVD without further encoding.

First demux. I would use DGIndex. Open the MPG and File->Save Project and Demux Video. Open Muxman. Add in the M2V that DGindex gave you and the AC3 audio it gave you. If there's a delay it will be noted in the name of the AC3 file and should be taken into account in Muxman. Give it a destination folder and "Start".

Or, if you have TDA, you can probably author the MPG directly (again, if it's DVD compliant). Don't ask me how as I don't use it.

But unless your DVD player can play DVDs burned to CD-R, you'd best put it on a DVDR.

[powerpc123]

Looks like DVDflick has done its work OK. I think the folder called "dvd" that DVDflick created is ready to burn using Imgburn. Can you open that folder and the VIDEO_TS folder inside that and see if you have five or so files totalling 140MB or so.

Also, you may want to change your DVDFlick settings from PAL to NTSC, put a check in the boxes called "Keep intermediate encoded audio and video files", "Create ISO image" and "Burn project to disc".

Your Sony cd-rw crx320ee is not going to burn a DVD. We are operating on the basic premise you have a DVD burner. You do have a DVD burner --- right?

[Clato]

iPOWER PC please ck your email SIR, tried in 2 different burner drives,
SONY burner was installed at time of computer purchased, (drive F) and i also installed another cd/dvd burner drive E,is TSST CORP CD/DVDW DRIVE,,,

BOTH burned & played ok in the computer, but not the standalone,

even tried the nero burner program among many other programs, nothing seems to work.
