DVD Burning

Kim · 12-12-2008, 03:31 PM

So, I'm trying to put some stuff on my computer onto DVD, but some of the files are in MKV format, which Windows DVD Maker and Nero don't seem too fond of. I tried using Any Video Converter to convert the file to AVI the picture was too big when I viewed it on my TV. I'd guess this is because MKV is like the HD version of the file or something. Is there anything I can do to burn this or convert it for burning so I won't have these problems?

Well... if you want to burn a TV DVD, then you could do what I do and use CyberLink PowerDirector instead. It will take your MKV's (for the most part) and burn them normally.

I was trying to burn DMC and Huzzah's encodes wouldn't fly, but Triad's did so I dunno what happened there.

---Just tried it out with three different groups' encodes. Worked on all three.

huh really? that's strange. works for me and i use AnyDVD Converter...

What I also found that helped (could be because of this) I burned them onto a DivX-DVD since I have a DivX-compatible upconverting HD-DVD player.

Did you checked "VSO ConvertXtoDVD" ? There is a freeware version and as far as i know it converts EVERYTHING to TV DVD already with Chapters and a menu.

It's quite customizable too... and the only trye bonus i know of the payed version is more Menu Types.
