Hey I'm not sure where to put this thread so feel free to correct me if its in the wrong place, i have just installed nero6 and I'm a little confused, could someone give me a few pointers on burning video to a dvd i have a video from holiday that i want to burn to a dvd for a family friend and i was wondering does the file have to be in a specific format at the moment it was .avi but nero6 converted it i think , its around 2 hours 40 Min's long , what dvd wr disk would be best of for doing this?

Well it depends if you want to rewrite it. I'd suggest, if you're sending it to a friend, DVD-R.

In nero, select DVD from the dropdown list at the top then select video disk. The rest is pretty self explanotory.

ok thanks
