I am absolutely ignorant of burning dvd's. I have downloads of MPG files. I have no avi's, mpeg-1's or mpeg-2's. I have NERO, Alcohol120% and I have Roxio DVD builder. I am using Memorex CD-RW 700mb/80min and my burner is a Sony CRX230A-U CD-R/CD-RW burner. I am trying to play them on a Sanyo DVW-7000 DVD/VHS player.
I have tried everything to get this to work. I don't even know that you can burn viewable DVD's without a "DVD burner". I have a close relative, who thinks he knows everything, trying to tell me what to do and to no avail. I really need an idiots breakdown of what all is required to even do this. I ve read a lot about this. I thought I was doing everything right, but obviously i'm not. When I do try to burn these files, the software proceeds normally.......encoding takes a couple of hours and the burning takes about 10 minutes. Then, NOTHING.......The disc shows on my computer as blank......completely empty and of course shows and error on my DVD player.
I apologize profusely for my ignorance. Please help if you can.
Thank You
