Hey guys!

So I have some videos that I wanted to burn on a dvd and play them in my dvd player. What file do they have to be in? Also what program can I use to burn the files to the dvd?

Thanks in advanced!

But, will they be able to play on a dvd player and does it matter what file it is?

What sort of videos are you burning? What format are they in?

If the conversion goes well, then yes, the DVDs you burn in iDVD should work just fine on most DVD players

Well I have some AVI and Mpeg4, so what should those be in?

All files are fine as long as they are recognised by iDVD. Just drag them over into the iDVD project and if they work from there (press the preview button) they should work anywhere.
