It depends on what type of file youre burning. such as WMA, MP4, AVI, MPEG, etc.

Burning movie to DVD that will play on Video DVD players involves serious conversion / re-encoding. It's NOT a drag-and-drop operation. You need additional software than what Vista provides natively. Something like Nero Suite or Easy Media Suite for neophytes.

Getting a new burner isn't the way to burn movies to DVD's. You have to get a program that can read the movie on your computer and then convert it to a file that will play on your DVD Burner. That process is call video compression. The program that does this is called video codec. A very popular and easy to use video codec is called, Divix. Download that free and it will be easier to burn a lot of different types of videos from your computer to your DVD Disc.

to play movies on dvd player you need to have them in vob extension not avi,unless u have a divx support in your dvd player.
use a program like winavi to converte the movie to dvd format and burn it with nero.
Enjoy :)
