New dvd burner

[darkserpant]

I just bought a new dvd burner and installed with no problem. But I'm trying to burn a movie which I downloaded and is in a mpg file format. I am using nero 6 ultra edition. I am having no luck. Do I have to change the file format mpg for the movie to be placed on a nlank dvd for my home dvd player can read it? And yes my home dvd player does play dvd-r and rw's. Could somebody give me a detaiiled step by step instructions on how to do this. Thank you very much.

im pretty sure you need to use a *.img file in order for you dvd player to read it

Yes you have to make a .img file, what is exactly your problem? Are you burning it and the dvd player doesnt read it or does the burner just not burn?

Yes I got it to burn but my dvd player can't read it. It does play dvd-r and rw. I need a program to convert the mpeg file so that my dvd player can read it. I tried a few I found on the net but some worked but with no volume. I wish I could have somebody help me through this problem from start to finish. Here is my e-mail address darkserpant@comcast.net
Thank you
