So I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for a program that will let me take some videos, and build a dvd iso that I can burn to a dvd, that will let me play it in a dvd player like it was a normal dvd. I'm looking for a good one that'll also let me put a decent menu on the front, and maybe even do chapters in the videos.

i just use nero, but theres probably better proggies out there.

That IS a normal DVD :P

If you can't find the option in Nero to make Video DVDs out of images, I think it's actually turned off by default and you have to switch to some advanced mode or change something in a config or some s***.


What you want to make the ISO in the first place is "Sony DVD Architect 2". It does a s*** job at burning to disc, so you pretty much have to go via ISO anyway.

And burning ISOs with nero let you churn out multiple copies of a DVD easily without filling the RAM first for half an hour during the transcoding of the video.

yeah I just use nero vision from nero 8 to make dvd's. What is your video source? my dvcam came with software to make dvd's and so did a bunch of computer hardware bits, it seems like dvd creation software is being thrown out left and right these days :)

There is a dvd program that comes in vista, not that great but it works. I use IDVD its pretty good.

the best i have is 'Convert X to Dvd'
really easy to use and it does menus and everything as well

dvdSanta is an option too, its getting abit old
and i dont think its as good though.

Convert X to Dvd is bloody fantastic.

+1 ConvertX to DVD

If you had a Mac this sort of thing is just included! (I think? Or does it come with iLife?)
