Hi All new to this forum. Stumbled on it searching info on a ceiling fan. My problem is I cannot burn video I have stored on my desktop to a disc and play it on any of the three other DVD players I have in my house,so I cannot either send it to anyone on a disc or burn and keep a copy. I have a 2005 desktop running Windows XP. I can use Movie Maker for some of my stored videos but some I cannot because I do not know the CODEC?? I am just learning about this CODEC thing. Any info please explain in laymans terms. THX for any help

You may take a look at this step by step guide, it's regarding how to convert and burn movie to DVD. I followed it and successfully burned DVD to play on my home DVD player, it's easy to understand, I think it deserves a try.

THX Jeff I will give it a try.

The program mentioned in the above link is a good one, but I would suggest to slow down the burn speed to 8x or less. It seems burning to fast may cause the dvd not to play on some dvd players.

THX for that info. I will see if my burner will let me do that.
