hi, i dont have like any money so my plan for my best friends graduation is to a dvd of all the videos we have ever made and put them all into one or two discs, problem is, idk which program to use. Windows DVD maker takes three days to attempt to load a video, then says error, roxio burn doesnt work either. i was hoping someone could tell me of a FREE dvd burning program, thanks in advance :)
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. [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]

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. [ ThirdQED's advice column | Ask ThirdQED A Question ]
