I’m pretty sure that almost all of you guys ue torrent and isn’t it annoying when you want to burn those “downloaded” movies in a DVD and then it won’t play in your DVD players? LifeHacker says that this is a common problem (and here I thought I was the only one having this problem) and they have shown us simple (and free) ways to burning virtually any video to a DVD you can pop into your DVD player.
1. DVD Flick
DVD Flick is a free, open-source application that supports over 45 different file formats, includes subtitle support, and makes creating a DVD from most common (and even uncommon) video files a breeze. Adam of LifeHacker made a detailed how to burn almost any video file to a playable DVD with DVD Flick a few years ago and since then DVD has added a support for creating custom menu screens and has pushed out a load of bug fixes.
2. DVD Creator
DVD Creator is not open source like DVD Flick, but it’s still free, and it offers most of the same features as DVD Flick. Also like DVD Flick, the Free DVD Creator wizard is dead simple to use. First select the movies you want to burn and arrange them in the order you’d like them to playback and appear on the DVD menu. On the next screen, you can completely customize your DVD menu screen. Once you’ve made it that far, just start burning. Free DVD Creator (like DVD Flick) will handle all of the file conversions necessary, then write the DVD-ready video to a DVD complete with your custom menu.
note: If you have trouble with the one step convert-and-burn (when I tested it, Free DVD Creator created the DVD but didn’t immediately burn), just re-open Free DVD Creator and this time select Video DVD Burner instead of Create Video DVD. Then just point the Burner at the VIDEO_TS folder that Free DVD Creator made the first time around (by default it’s located at C:\DVDTemp\ and hit Burn.
Looks like I found a fix for some of my problems when burning DVD’s. Thanks to LifeHacker. Now back to “downloading”
