what do i want it as? to play on on my nans dvd player?

Question

right this is a long one, i have made my nan a cd of pictures with music using windows movie maker, unfortunatley not many burners support the file type but i found this on movie maker forums

"You save your movie (File > Save Movie File) to your computer. You can click on 'show more options' then 'Other' and save in numerous WMV resolutions or in DV-AVI.

Once you have your movie file (not the project file), if you are burning to a DVD, your DVD authoring software will do the conversion for you to MPEG-2 automatically when you choose a video DVD. Otherwise you will have to find other software to convert the WMV/AVI into MPEG.

-=Blaine=-" so i have now done this and saved it as dv-avi.

i have 2 discs in front of me a DVD-R and a CD-R, so do i now need to convert that dv-avi file to something else using a converter and if so what?? and also which cd/dvd do i need to use so that my nan can play the whole thing on her new dvd player my mum has just got her for xmas?
THANKS.X

ive got nero but when it comes up to add media to burn it says supported files and my new file isnt there so i need to convert it to something else but what? :/

Answer 1

buy nero7 [www.nero.com], or divx mpeg2 codec [www.divx.com]

Answer 2

a cd or dvd, it doesn't matter. they both play on a dvd player. what you need is to make a slide show. it flicks throught the pictures with the music in the background. use should be able to use your current software to make a slideshow. i use nero

Answer 3

Try both !!!
