    Burning my first DVD

    Hi.I'm attempting to burn my very first DVD.And i'll get right to my question and hopefully i did'nt overlook the answer in the forum already.I used a samsung digimax camera to make a video and i downloaded it to my computer and now i would like to make a DVD.I used the dvd flick software plus img burn in an attempt to make the DVD .I got audio and no video from realplayer to see how it came out for one.And i attempted to use windows media to watch it and got nothing.Am i close or am i way off track?If you need anymore questions answered i'll do my best.

    Not an expert, so until one comes around...

    After you imported the video to your pc, what was the file format that the video came out as? Mp3, AVI? While Flick can convert most file formats into a standard dvd format, I'm not sure that it could take a raw video file-as I said above, no expert am I...
    My best response is that you may need to use another dvd authoring software program, perhaps the one that came preinstalled on the pc, to create your dvd using the video from your camera.

        WAV is typically audio only file. Most file extensions appear in the file's title. Whether you titled the file or not, Hover the mouse pointer over the title, and you should see AVI, WMP, etc at the end.

                      after using flick to convert the mpeg4/avi/mov, I check the output by playing the files before burning
