Burning movies to discs

[Charlie]

How do I do this? Whenever I put a blank dvd into the computer to burn a movie onto it, it tells me it's a cd.

[Delatory]

What program are you using to burn the movie?
Have you made sure your putting the blank dvd into a DVD-RW and not a CD-RW?

[Charlie]

I don't have any programs because I don't know which I need and there is only one place to put the disc.

I'm a noob when it comes to this.

There's an easy to use program called DVDFlick.

You select the film you want from your computer then you can decide on the size, menus, when you want chapters and options to put subtitles on.

It's rly good for freeware

Are you sure you have a DVD writer? Sounds as if you don't...

I use ashampo or w.e

I use Nero Smartstart ultra edition, good stuff

and make sure the disc is rewritable

ConvertXtoDVD is the best program, download it via torrent.

It is a CD, DVDs are the same as CDs until you tell your computer to burn it as a DVD Disc. There's DVD Discs & Data Discs, CD is the latter... Meh doubt you wanted to know that, but it sounds like you haven't got a CD-ROM drive which burns data onto disc.

Oh and you don't need a particular program, I burn discs through Windows' own burn suite which comes packaged with Vista/XP and that works fine. I burn DVDs also, so it'll do the same job for you.
