    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

All i want to do is burn an awesome, perfect quality file to dvd. It doesnt work in quick time, but works in VLC. I'd love to know which codec i need to make it work in quick time, then burn it. or learn how to burn it with sound some other way. New user, could use some help. As frustrating as learning this crap is, i'll never go back to PC. Genius mac users- help!

What might help users here help you is what is the extension on that Video file? What type of Video file is it? What was it made on?

hey grhys1304

Basically your problem is that the file is muxed...you have to use a video converter program like videora in order to change your avi file to mp4 and then it'll work fine. Their website is www.videora.com
good luck.
