Need HELP-- .WMV file--> burn to DVD???

MaxReferrals · 10-31-2008, 08:33 AM

Everyone, I have a .WMV file I created using MS Photostory for a quick
presentation.

The place I'm showing the DVD doesn't have PC.
They have a DVD player.

Trying and trying to burn this .WMV onto DVD to play on a
DVD player... but my Roxio 3.0 (2006) isn't cooperating I think.

The weird thing is it says it burns it, but when I put into DVD player... "Unknown Disc"
When I put in my PC, it loads Windows Media Player and plays.

What am I doing wrong?
How can I get this .WMV onto a DVD to shove into a player?
Is Roxio 3.0 outdated and can't create a DVD from a .WMV??

Help!

Check the setting in Roxio to create a DVD that is possible to play in a DVD Player. I think that you have created a "data" disk only instead of a DVD that plays on a DVD Player. Check also Roxios Support site for your version of the program Roxio Support Home

Yeah, You may have created a data disk. Although i am pretty certain Window Media Video (.WMV) cannot be burnt to DVD. Try using a converter to convert the file to .AVI (its much more accepted) then burn it, and try using NERO burning sortware it is by far one of the better softwares.

If you're on Windoze XP or greater, you could try using
Windows Movie Maker - It comes free with the OS.
