3.5 Won't let me burn

Avi battle part II!!!!!!!!!

Ok. So I've converted the avis to the proper mpegII format. Now when I get to the final screen where you begin the burning process, first a pop up comes up saying "uDVDburnmger isn't registered" then when I get to the screen, it doesn't show the DVDs properties and when you click on anything it freezes. Any clue whatsoever about this?

I swear I'm never trying to make a DVD again.

Do you have any other burning software on your computer? Some "drag and drop" burning software will take-over your burner.

If that's the problem, there are two possible solutions.

1- Disable the conflicting software.

Or,

2- "Burn" DVD folders to your hard drive, and then copy them to an actual DVD with your other burning software: When you get to the "burn" step, check the box that says Create DVD folders and un-check Create Disc. If that works, you'll get the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders on your hard drive, instead of on a DVD. And if that works, you have a problem during the actual burning step.

It'll be easier the 2nd time. Actualy, I understand the feeling... This digital video stuff is not easy! With all of the different file formats, different hardware, different 3rd-party software, and different types/styles of projects, everybody has to figure-out their own procdure that works for their particular situation.

Of course once you get it all figured-out, someone will hand you a different file format or a different type of camera, and you can start all over again!
