Hi all

Have just spent most of the day putting together a movie in Windows Movie Maker to commemorate our Christmas trip to New York.

The movie consists of jpeg photos taken with my digital camera, video shot with the same and a soundtrack of imported music files.

So far so good. However, I want to save it to a cd-rom or dvd so that it will play on a dvd player as opposed to just on my computer but I'm struggling to find a way to do this :rant:

Can anyone assist? :help:

Depends what your DVD player can play

If it can do VCD just use Nero.

Download NeroVision Express. It's a great all-in-one solution for capturing, editing and then burning to DVD.

Intervideo also do one - WinDVD creator.

I use both on a daily basis, they're both very good value.

Ditto Nero Vision Express

Brilliant program which should do what you want to do.

Can DVD players read Windows Movie Maker files? I seem to remember WMM is pretty useless, they don't even give it free with Windows anymore. And you can't export WMM files either...you'll have to start from scratch with something that exports your files as MPEG / VCD etc.

wmm exports video as wmv files, there are plenty of freeware utilities to convert these to mpeg2 or 4, google it.

then use nero or other preferred burning program to master it to dvd.

I've used wmm recently, it crashed all the time, took me ages to get my video finished.
