No.. you need a DVD-R and recordable DVD's... and even then, I'm not sure how videos have to be encoded for DVD.
Your videos will be playable on any computer though.

yeah... the DVD will also have to be able to play mpeg files. Some DVD;s do... some dont, it is an extra feature.

it's a dvd burner and that shit costs bling bling, son.

maybe if you hold off on buying curly fries at the cafeteria for lunch you'll be able to scrounge up the change for it by the time you hit puberty.

Actually Dan and eyezaer, ever heard of VCD's, other-wise known as Video-CD's. I tryed to burn (downloaded, don't sue me) movies onto a VCD then stuck it in my DVD Player but it didn't work, because my DVD Player doesn't play burned CD's (goddamn it). Anyways, it plays in my Comp DVD player like a regular DVD, and my friend has gotten it to work in his DVD Player.

On another note: A DVD -R costs 500

hmm... I thought that DVD players the supported Mpeg could play normal cdroms... but the problem is, a normal CDR can not hold much video.

Always nice to see you kids playing nice...

As far as DVD and VCD burning, if you have the money then a DVD burner and a few discs will run you about $1000. The burner should come with burning software that will encode the video to DVD format. However, I don't think you want to waste an 8 GB dvd with a few videos downloaded from the internet, so a VCD is a good bet.

However, they will only play on DVD players that are able to read CD-R and CD-RW formatted discs. It should say it on the feature list of the player. However, there are a few exceptions. A really good site for this stuff is www.vcdhelp.com. They should give you all need to know about encoding formats and some freeware utils to help you out.

And I pray for the day when DVD burners drop below $200.

so, just go to an insect website
i'm sure (i am, really, just don't feel like explaining) that you will find one that tells you something useful

get your dvd specs first, of course

I do wonder if people have been listening to anything that gets said around here:

quote:
ok i downloaded some tool videos, (mpeg's), and I got me a burner, if i burn them, will it be dvd playable...



Assuming that this is copyright material lets try a similar query:

"I downloaded Tool's latest album today and want to convert it to an audio CD"

If you really wish to discuss such matters do it in the abstract:

"How do I make an mpeg playable on a DVD"

For the following reasons:

1. It could quite easily be a query related to non-pirated material giving the Doc plausible deniability.

2. If I'm a lawyer (or whoever does these things) doing specific searches for e.g. the illegal downloading of Tool videos I'd possibly stumble across this. I'd search out some more posts by you and I'd be very interested to see the contents of your hard drive (and counterfeitbacon's). You might want to sit your mother down and explain exactly what you've been up to online and then ask her where does the buck (in this case large fines and potential imprisonment) stop? I doubt it would stop with a minor but it certainly could stop at the door of the person who bought the computer, is paying for the Internet access, has the computer under their roof and should, theoretically, be monitoring the Internet usage of a minor. Now I'm thinking back a long way but when I was your age I think I would have been pretty sick if my activities and indiscrete talk had got my parents into big trouble. So be discrete and talk in more abstract terms (no one needs to know if it is a Tool video or your uncle's wedding video) and possibly find a forum that is more conducive to this kind of discussion (as another thread has shown we do visit different forums to cover different aspects of what we are interested in - if you wish to discuss matters related to pirating copyright material then there are places to discuss this and they aren't here).

Here endeth the rant.

Oooh I love Tool and havent seen any of there videos .. anyway could we trade CDs or something .. but anyway.

I think Nero (ahead.de) can burn VCDs from MPGs, but I have a good Sony DVD player which says it can play VCDs(it even has a little light that says if its playing a DVD VCD or Music), but it wont play any (or music CDs) !! I tried some VCDs and they play in my friends house, but not mine !, so um, find out if yours can and there you go.

123studios.com (i think) sell a program that converts DVDs into DivX+VCDs it can also make VCDs, it comes with buring software, it has everything, or so Ive heard, I dont have it myself.

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Like Emps said "Don't you read what has already been said?"
Sheesh! This is like the 5th post in a few days that wants to talk about pirating software and shit! Don't you understand that they will close this place down if conversations like this maintain?

Damn! Do what you want but I like to use this board for constructive reasons LIKE LEARNING SOMETHING USEFUL! Not breaking the law! There are plenty of sites out there that discuss things like this. Go to one of those and lets talk about web stuff and graphics which is why this board exists.

I think your stay here would be much easier for every one if you would stay quiet and listen and observe and learn. It works great for me.
