Windows media file to DVD?

***CaliGuy*** · 04-29-2007, 02:48 AM

This is probably a lame question. Please humor me anyway

Is it possible to burn a Windows Media file to a DVD and have it work in the DVD player? I am using a 2 year old DVD player (if it matters).

Thanks for the help

no, needs to be converted.

Converted to what and how?

i use winavi to convert to avi format. Then use avi2dvd to make files for burning. long process but works for me.

Certain programs will have a built-in converter. I use NeroVision and it will automatically convert wmv or avi files before burning it onto a DVD.

Nero's a really powerful program and I highly recommend it.

i have to reccomend convertx2dvd. its very good. if you can find a site that lets you download the original version (called divx to dvd) its free.

you should use a lossless codec such as Huffyuv. it will be faster and you wont loose quality twice. another option is DV-AVI out of WMM but you need lotsa HDD space.

ConvertXtodvd has worked very well for me in the past. I also recommend this avenue.
