can anybody help me by any chance?
I have a movie of a comedian on my mates hard drive that he has gave to me to ask me to put it onto a DVD. i plug the hard drive into my computer (through the usb port) and it comes up perfect, but i use Widows Media Player to try and burn the movie to the DVD, but it doesn't work in my DVD player.

Is there any sort of program or any other things that I can use to make this work?

thanks

Try downloading nero burner, thats the one i use..

Nero's great. That's the one I'd recommend too.

So if I burn it from Nero to the DVD, do you reckon it will work in any DVD player?

In almost every dvd player...

It all depends on the process you use.
When using Nero, make sure you finalize the process at the end, or you wont be able to watch it on basic DVD players

nero is a great choice in software, but i use ulead movie factory, works a treat for me

It will also ask you "save log file" this bascially means you make the same copy again but doenst have to go thru all the ripping process etc, can go straight to burn, handy if your making more than one copy...

i use nero 7 and also use convertx2dvd wich i think is better its easy to use and also tells you how good the conversion will be etc u can edit ur menus and do alot more i downloaded convertx2dvd off the internet check it out
