I don't know if it will work for DVD's, but I have burned a cd or 2 by doing this:

1. Put the blank cd into the drive
2. Click on the section that says "burn"
3. Creat a playlist of the amv or amv's you wish to burn, and select it by clicking on the arrow next to the bar that says "Burn list"
4. Select the drive that your burner is in (cd drive or dvd drive) on the left hand side of the screen where it has a small picture of a cd in the bar
5. Click on start burn, and let it burn.
6. Watch the amv on your dvd player and then kindly thank Efan for his help Anime smile.

It should providing that you have a dvd burner or you cd burner can burn dvds like mine can. Things may work differently for you, but I'm lucky in turms of burners, i have a cd/dvd burner on both drives and both drives can play the same type of cds that i know of. It's wierd why they didn't just make it one drive but I'm kind of thankful they didn't because my cd drive broke when a cd shadderd inside it.

What format are the AMV's you have downloaded?

Based on format, you might have to do a conversion first, here is the place to start: VideoHelp.com - Author

Anime smile thanks for your imput, I greatly appresiate it.

But no really, it depends on what version of media player you have. And sorry if I don't major in giving instructions, It's not something I do every day.

It has nothing to do with media player. I don't even know what the heck you're saying half of the time. If you want to find out what kind of file that is, look at the end file name.

musicvideo.avi or musicvideo.wmv
If you don't see the extention tag at the end, than go to folder option and uncheck the "hide extention tag". After that, follow one of the proper guide on videohelp.com depending on the file type of the amv.

As for converting the files so they are dvd-compliant, that's an easy process and anyone with half a brain can do some research and get it done easily.
