Use DVD Flick:

If necessary, use Windows Movie Maker to join images and stuff into a video file.

If you don't need to play the DVD in a DVD player, just use ImgBurn in "write files/folders to disk" mode to burn the video file to disk. Because the compression that "playable" DVDs must use is terrible, you will be able to fit a lot more data on the disk if you do it this way.

I recommend either ImgBurn or BurnAware.

ImgBurn is my all time favorite, but it might be a little bit complicated for first-time users. I usually burn ISO images for backing up purposes (every three month, I backup my important files onto DVDs, onto external drives every week, and onto online storage every three days), while almost never burn any audio or video. So I cannot guarantee how well it would work with something WindowsDVDMaker failed to work with. But definitely give it a try if and only if you know what format you wish to burn into.

BurnAware is more "your style," or so I would like to think. It is free (for home usage), simple, and clean. There's a button, you click, choose your source and destination, and you are done. Everyone can use it with ease.
