Believe it or not, there are still reasons people need DVDs.

[@hugotome3665]

Man, I've been struggling to find this solution for hours now. It's 6 AM here, haven't slept yet because I had to find it no matter what, I'm organising an electro event tomorrow and in the club where it occurs there's old TVs attached to the roof all connected to the same DVD player, perfect to put an ambiance if you know how to make some visuals on a video editor :)) DVDs were slowly disappearing when I got in the age of getting into computers so this was such a delight to come across an eleven years old video that shares free softwares to burn DVDs. Every modern tutorials I came across directed to paying apps or shady stuff. Thank you PC-Addict, you're the real deal. Keeping that old internet vibe where everyone was benevolent and caring with each other, before fakes and social media and shitty youtube conten, and clickbait and all the stuff I got to be born in that makes the internet stray from it's main purpose, sharing knowledge. I wish you a very nice year, and I hope everything's is going along for you in this mess we call life. With love A young guy that never writes comments

[@PC-Addicts]

Thank you!

[@ghostie6199]

Incredible, I come back here everytime I burn a DVD to make sure I do it all right.

[@shedracknnamchi]

Same lol!!

[@davesvideoblog]

Hands down the single most helpful video I’ve seen, and to think it’s a decade old. Well done! Thank you!

[@PC-Addicts]

Thank ya! I am happy it's still helping people!

[@MasterLink221]

You absolute Madlad. For already 2 weeks now I've been trying to find a way to put Videos on to a DVD-R and have it actually play on a Player and UNTIL NOW that wasn't going to happen. I thank you, so so so Much. You saved me a huge ton. Thank you for this Video!

[@girlygirl1890]

@MasterLink221 I am completely NEW to all of this and have no clue how to do any of this stuff, but would like to do what is in this video. Can you tell me...."when I go to the store to get the BLANK videos that I want to copy videos on, WHICK ONES AM I SUPPOSED TO BUY? I see things like "DVD R, and DVD other stuff, but I have no clue which one's to buy to even get started with this. Please help.😫😫

[@MasterLink221]

@@girlygirl1890I was able to buy mine off of Amazon, It was a Maxell brand. Specifically, Maxell Platinum DVD+R 5 Pack. When you get the DVD it's already empty and you can add anything to it, but there's a Specific format that DVD's have in order to play on a DVD player. If you want, you can put any file type on the DVD and burn it using a Computer with a disk drive. But if you want something that can be played on a DVD player follow this Video's steps. Rewatch it, Pay attention, and it'll be understandable to complete.

This video solved my struggles with burning dvds, thank you!

[@PC-Addicts]

Awesome glad I was able to help!

[@211sweetypie]

🎉Hallelujah! 🎊 💥Thank you! After wasting several blank DVDs, I was finally able to accomplish this project. This is the only thing that worked. I already had imgburn installed and after installing Dvd flick they worked perfectly together and I was able to finally burn my DVDs and get playback after following your video. I was able to select the “ burn to disc” option and the imgburn software automatically kicked in after DVD Flick finished encoding the video image. I used Wonderfox dvd ripper first to rip and compress the dvd to an avi format image. I discovered that after you select your title, and your Image is on your desktop, you can drag and drop it in the title window. You made my day. 😊

[@PC-Addicts]

Awesome glad I was able to help!

[@ZainaJuliette]

Thank You! I appreciate those who share their knowledge for others. We should all be thankful for your kindness. Many take kindness for granted.

Took your instructions and now I have a full collection of movies. Works great thanks man! Works like a charm. Thanks Again!

[@Maanik_baadshah]

Hello there, i have movies in mkv format (h.264 video, AC3 audio). I want to either burn it to dvd or copy to usb to play in my f&d 2100, which has 5.1 ch output. Which would be the best format for video and audio and container format to make it work? I want surround audio. Which would be the best software?

[@DarkVoid11]

Bro, you need to convert that file into MP4 or AVI. and change the audio to ACC. Then you should burn it using the software tge guys showed in the video. I would use this cloudconvert.com/ I know how you can put the usb into your TV to play the movie but almost all TVs cant support mkv. files thats why you got to convert them

[@mcnowski]

15 years ago it was beyond simple to rip and burn any movie to DVD. Now in 2024 its next to impossible, you get wrong formats every time.

[@southwaco23]

[@PC-Addicts]

Oh gosh, yeah, I wouldn't want to try these days!

Thank you, this was really helpful I spent forever trying to figure this out last night and a lot of the other tutorials I watched were really confusing but this was to the point and easy to understand. ( :

Yar Har! This video was highly informative and his assisted me in my exploits on the seven seas! Thank ye kindly, stranger!

[@PC-Addicts]

Your welcome.

[@culwin]

Actually, a better option is Windows DVD Maker which comes on Vista & Windows 7 (not sure about other OS's, but guessing it probably does). It's very simple and works fine, so I don't know why you would mess around downloading other stuff.

[@AJ.L2468]

it no longer exist on windows 10.

[@morgankingsley8711]

This was the first one that actually made the DVDs successfully burn and play on my JVC VHS and DVD player, so now I can burn my video game playthrough stuff onto VHS for no reason besides the comedy of it whenever I want now

[@snapposnap4363]

Worked perfectly. Thanks. Good tutorial. I love it. Fast and straight to the point.

[@NJGUY46]

Hi great video... Can you tell me what kind of writable DVDs you used? were they -R or + R... I understand that -R's are more common and more suitable for most homes DVD players...thanks for your input

[@jesuselizondo108]

PC-Addicts don't speeding up the process to above normal mess with the quality or audio delay?... i click on burn to cd idk what iso image is. can you compare. and last question. how can i make copies of the dvd i burn? instead of burning 1 by 1 which takes from 4hrs to 18hrs each movie idk why

[@therealjtw]

This very much helped and i will watch this video again in the future 10/10

[@peetersdrummingmusic6781]

Alright, so uhh my dvd player plays like half of the videos on the dvd, the rest just freeze the player and then stops the dvd. What is the problem?

[@PC-Addicts]

Still trying to get this done? Sorry for the delay.

[@peetersdrummingmusic6781]

@@PC-Addicts Hi. I figured out the problem. It was simply me putting too much media on the dvd (over 4 hours worth), to the point where it couldn't play most of it.

@88KRUZE No, it doesn't have to be AVI (thats just the file I had as an example). If it were me, I would just try whatever format you have.

After playing your video five times, I gave up. You speak like a bullet train. You know what you are doing but we don't. Next time, speak S - L - O - W - E - R please.

[@inkandescent3382]

helend222 I am not even a native English speaker and yet I can follow the instructions. What you have to do is stop the video after each phrase that is mentioned ... and if necessary rewind it. This has to be repeated as many times as necessary.
