I need a great DVD burner...Can anybody put in there 2cents?

Question

I have plenty of movies on my laptop.
All in which are AVI, MPG, DivX and ect.

I need a program that will convert those to DVD FORMAT
then burn the DVD to my DVD burner.

I've tried NERO, it sucks, you cant use AVI, MPG you have to use ISO, so therefore I would need 2 seperate programs, a converter and a burner...Which is lame.

I've used ConvertXtoDVD and I've used it, the best so far, except I lost the crack I used for it and now I can't get one...Lost the serial for it. But its the best i've used yet.

I've used NTI Cd-DVD Maker...Sucks.

Currently trying dvdSANTA 4.0....works ok so far...Not as fast.
Shitty interface, and well...idk.

I've also used DVDshrink and a couple others....

Can anyone please tell me a great program that
converts the files fairly quickly, burns them so that
you will be able to forward by chapters and make a menu...
and also dont need ISO files, can just burn from the movie file as is.

That would be excellent!

Answer 1

First of all, I'm not sure why you think Nero is limited to the ISO format. That's simply not true. Nero 6 and later support DVD-Video, DVD-ISO, DVD-UDF, and others under Nero's Burning ROM utility.

Now when you are trying to make a DVD-Video disc but the files are not already in the right format, you want to use Nero's Nerovision Express utility. I think it only comes with the Ultra version of Nero (not the one that comes bundled with a DVD burner). You can throw an AVI or an MPG into the tool, and it will convert it to the right MPEG-2 format required for DVD-Video. I don't think it will convert DIVX and other formats, so you'll have to search for free utilities on the net to convert them to standard AVI or MPG separately.

http://www.bigdoggpinc.com/ on this site they have Dvd-cloner III and on http://www.slysoft.com/ get anydvd trial version and then watch how many dvd's will burn without no problem. This is the best set out there. Everyone that I told this to agrees with me. I hope you take this good advice.

Answer 3

The problem is not from the packages. To handle DVD format, you should use a latest high performance pc.
