Making a DVD...

[Lucid]

I just downloaded the latest Heroes episodes and want to put them on a DVD...

Anybody know of any free software that can do this?

I'm asking this mainly because my dad's into the show too and wants to watch the latest episodes with me.

This isn't the same version I use but it should work for your needs.

I've actually already tried Nero, but it requires a specific format that I've never seen in order to make a DVD.

Thanks though.

im sorry. i have to comment on the level of stupid in this thread. we have here someone that is openly admitting to illegal downloads, and is even asking for help with them. this website doesnt seem to me like the type of site that would be happy to support illegal downloads, especially as the game it supports is itself a victim of illegal downloads.

you SRIOUSLY cant work out how to use nero to make a DVD? NERO? its pretty much MADE for the most common idiot to allow them to burn every common type of disk/format possible, and even has a perfectly fine (if not a little amateur) DVD creation "studio", complete with animated menus, subtitles if you want them, etc - the whole works. just how stupid are you people (pirates)?

Shut up, Shasta.

Really? Nero works fine xlucid. Though that's the Nero that came with my PC, so I dunno.

Also, Stewie, Shasta, whoever the **** you are, shut up.

First of all, you can watch the new episodes on the homepage for Heroes, but they take way too long to load... so I downloaded torrents for them.
Second of all, my copy of Nero can't use avi's or or anything for whatever reason.

Go f*ck yourself, stupid troll.

well THAT makes it ok then....

#cough#

if they wanted it on a torrent site, they would have put it on 1.

you REALLY think that nero cant use avi files - the most common of mainstream media files? u never thought that mayby it was u or your pc that was the problem?

*sigh*

It's not your name. It's your attitude. The attitude of a relentless bastard who always, always has the moral high ground, even when he's completely wrong (and even moreso when he's in the technical right).

Only Shasta was possibly more polite than you are. And he could spell.

/EDIT Oh, I remember now... I burnt the video files using Nero as data files and watched on a DVD player that supports avi/mpeg file playing. Does yours, Xlucid?

 

[Lucid]

Dude, it only uses .ifo, .vbo, and .bup files.
There's no other options under the Photo & Video tab, there's just "Make DVD-Video" and "Recode DVD-Video".

And for Christ's sake, I'm not hurting anyone by downloading episodes of a show that I missed so that I can catch up with it when a new episode comes on Monday.

edit : And yeah it does, Jintor.

And guys, it's okay... I found a program called "DVD Flick" that did the trick.
I don't want fancy menus or anything, I just wanted the shows watchable on a dvd player and this program accomplished that.
I'm throwing out the disks afterwards anyways, they're just for me and my dad to catch up on the show over the weekend.

That's to encode as DVD. If you encode as data you can dump any old crap on there and as long as you have a DVD player that plays data discs it should be OK.

Oooh.
I'll keep that in mind next time I want to put any videos on a DVD.

Thanks man.

 

[Jintor]

I should probably reiterate that you do need to check if your DVD player plays data discs. Only like 2 of mine do, so it's confusing. :/

 

[-Psy-]

Are you REALLY such a dick in real-life or do you just LOVE trolling?

 

[Jintor]

He's talking to Stewie, not to me! D:
