i have been working on my own home videos, and i use Ulead Video Studio 7, which is pretty cool...but I cant seem to get the files to work on anything else..i mean i get the movie all set up, follow their directions, and it doesnt work....i have tried putting the videos on CD-R(works only on computers), CD-RW, DVD-RW, and im wondering if i need to use DVD-Rs? what do u guys use in terms of discs, in order to get them to work in a DVD player??? thanks guys...and, what type of file do the videos need to be? mpg, mpeg2, ????

I've never done anything like that, but I thought the format for DVDs is Mpeg2 on a DVD-R. I'm not 100% on that though.

Dome dvd players wont recognize. Try dvd-r and try a friends dvd player. I have done many and found this to be the case. Visit vcdhelp.com for compatability with player and media.

make sure your dvd player is able to play vcd's
