Default DVD writing program

Hi guys, bit of a request if anyone can help. Recently downloaded some episodes of "Girls of the Playboy Mansion" for the Mrs. She's into stuff like that. Anywho, most of them aren't available on DVD, so decided to look through the torrent sites for the TV episodes.

But I don't have a program on the PC to write downloaded AVI/Mpeg etc etc files to a dvd disc. The DVD player upstairs is unlocked so will play pretty much any DVD disc, but I need a program first.

Anyone any links to a free one please? Haven't loads of cash to go down Curries et al and buy something, but looking for some advice on here please.

Ta

If the DVD player will play avi divx files then just burn them as a data disc using vso copyto dvd.

If they need to be DVD format then use VSO convertxtodvd.

Try DVD Flick, it's free and also allows you to add more than 1 film/episode, it also adds a DVD menu to them so you can choose what to watch first. Its really simple to use and doesn't take too long to convert either.

No fella, I'm not really into Xbox's and gamsestations as a whole. Not had one for years.

I've got something up and running thanks to a helpful pm, just trying to figure it out at the minute.

I have a program that will convert your files to dvd if you want it ??? I think its too big to email so I could post iton a cd to you??? its only 40mb I think.

In fact down load this and I will sort you out via pm. Don't install it though
