I have a number of television shows which are all in AVI format. This plays
well on my computer, and with amazing quality (depending on the original
source, of course).
I have recently been trying to prepare DVD disks which will play on stand-alone
DVD players. I have Nero which contains a utility that will burn disks that
will play on the players. They use a different format than we use on the
computer.
I was able to take four episodes from a television series, create a great
background, with the little picture icons that you click to start the episode
playing, and with titles and the whole bit. Looked fantastic! It then took an
hour of processing to convert into the player format for these four episodes.
These four were 4.37 Gb and should fit on a DVD disk.
But when it came to the step to burn, it failed. No other message other than
failed. So I am not sure where the fault is. I've tried this about three
times, with the same result. I have not tried with only two episodes to see if
that makes a difference, but it shows that these four will fit on a disk. I
never did get these episodes on these special player disks -- I am able to burn
them to disk in the regular .AVI format for storage. I really would like to
get them in a useable form that can be played on stand-alone DVD players and
viewed on a TV set.
Any ideas?
