I have tried using DVD+RW and my computer wont let me!
I just want to burn clips i have recorded on my digital camera onto a disk that i can play in my dvd player.
Is it the disk or program thats important? i am currently using Roxio easy cd and dvd burning… but its not so easy!
Hmm…. lots of questions here… The disk, AND, the program both make a difference. I haven't used Roxio in years but when I did, it was very buggy. I don't know what version you are using, but you might go to to their site and search for updates:
www.roxio.com/enu/support/software_updates/default.html
The dvd media (the disks) matter too. I never buy the cheap brands. Verbatim, Imation, TDK, and Fuji are all good brands. Basically stay away from anything cheap.
Also, buy the DVD-R discs. The difference between DVD-R and the DVD+R is that the -r is built on older technology. It supposedly takes longer to burn, but the benefit is that it plays on a wider variety of DVD players. You are using a -rw disc which means it is re-writable. I don't recommend that. Discs are pretty cheap these days.
Now, the software problem…. have you successfully burned a DVD before using Roxio? It seems like you haven't used this program a lot, so let me explain that there is a difference between burning a 'movie', and burning a 'data disc'. I hope I'm not insulting your intelligence here but you can't simply burn a 'data dvd' and expect it to play in a dvd player.
When you burn a 'movie dvd' you should be getting options of creating menus, and creating buttons that link to the specific video files/clips you have added to the project. If you haven't experienced this then perhaps you are choosing the wrong options in Roxio. ?
Anyway, check for Roxio updates, get a good DVD-R disc, and follow the step by step instructions for creating a movie dvd. If you still have problems post your results.
Good Luck!

You can try the software which is easy to use and very fast. It can burn DVD from any video formats and has great video edit function to meet all your needs. You can download this software from here:
