burning CD's

i'm a sort of a....computer junkie. and i like to download all sorts of things. movies, tv shows, music video's

i have a friend who uses regular CD's and burns them so that they can be used in a DVD player

i have software thats suspossed to let me do this too; i burn the CD as a video CD....even a Super video CD and it still wont work in any DVD player i put my CD's in

so i was wondering. does anyone else do this? what software do you use? can you help me in anyway?

i'm so sick of sitting at my computer watching movies, i wanna make it to the couch damn it!

You have to check if you DVD player will play CDRs and CDRWs. It sounds like it is an older one that cannot.

You can score one that can at Radio Shack for $50.

I got one thinking I could watch my Japan Region DVDs but it didn't like me. So they are all stuck on my computer's 21incher. I have to get video out.

I love this stuff.

Go for a Dazzle video capture unit. You will be able to do both. Video in and out. That way you can watch your cdrs, mpgs, avis and divx on your tv.

It looks strange when in the windows gui but the videos look fantastic.

go to www.vcdhelp.com and see the compatibility of your dvd player with the various formats of cd types. the best one to get is the old school apex that plays everything and regionless dvd coding. hope that helps.
