ok so i have a bunch of movies and they are all like 3/4 of a GB. What i want to do is put like 4 or 5 movies to a DVD so i can save space (otherwise i might as well burn them on a CD)
hows this work so that it will play in a normal DVD player (i dont just want to burn them as a data DVD)

i too have sonic Record Now for durning a data disc. my dvd burner also came with My DVD, that you can make a dvd with chapters and intro's.
but if you use record now and put 3-4 movies in it will make each movie a different section. but you NEED a dvd player that can read the format of the movies your burning. like my dvd player can read Divx, .mpg, .mpeg, .avi and so on. so you can do the data cd if ur player supports it.

No...Because it will only be one movie file, you could try downloading a program called "Power Producer." It is a very easy to use program for burning dvd's and each episode would be its own icon thing on the menu.

yes you can use a combination of DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink... for some reason i cant just import the DVD into shrink and make an .ISO.
i have to rip it with DVD Decrypter and then take the .ISO file it makes and import into Shrink and make it so it can fit on a 4.7GB DVD, then burn it with Decrypter. works like a charm

Maybe the files are an unsupported type for the program...that is the only thing I can think of, try converting them.
