how can i transfer downloaded movies from lime wire onto a disk?

Answer 1

Limewire is a peer-to-peer file transfer program, and therefore it is possible to download files of an illegal nature. This answer assumes you are downloading something you have permission to download, copy and use.

Once downloaded, find the file as normal on your computer. You have two options to get it onto a disc. You can either burn it onto a CD/DVD as a file, but not playable in home entertainment equipment (ie, DVD player) or you can transcode it to VCD, SVCD or DVD first which is playable in most home entertainment systems.

If you are copying the file as is, you can either drag and drop into the CD-ROM drive and then use Windows XP to burn it on to a recordable disc (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW or DVD-RAM), or you can use your favourite CD/DVD burner (Nero, Easy CD Creator, NTI CD and DVD Creator, etc).

If you want to produce an actual playable disc, you can use either Windows Movie Maker (supplied with Windows XP), Nero Vision, or CyberLink PowerProducer to create a VCD (video disc, 60mins), SVCD (video disc, 30mins) or DVD (the good one).

Please note, Windows Movie Maker saves only HighMAT(tm) CDs, not DVDs. These are discs only readable by Windows.

Answer 2

you could use nero to burn the file to disk, if you want to burn it as a dvd moveie, you need something like nero vision, its all wizard based and will take the movie you downloaded and burn it to a dvd so you can play it on a dvd player
