does anyone know of any free software for burning dvds? I video record my children and parties alot and want to be able to put them on dvds but the software i have is horrible. sound ends up misplaced and the picture never fits the screen and theres no option to change that.

anything will be appriciated ^.^
 
Two free versions of burning softwares used for a variety of different types of burns to disk even the iso image for the free Linux drive tool GParted as well as video files and data dvds are BurnOn and a newer StarBurn program by the same software company apparently.

The free version of BurnOn sees an IE popup after each burn for buying the full version if you can get past that annoyance. http://www.burnworld.com/burnoncddvd/

StarBurn is simply a free burning program found at http://www.rocketdivision.com/download_starburn.html

Hopefully one of these or even a third known as Deep Burner will work out with their DeepDVD Movie download seen at http://www.deepburner.com/?r=download
 
nero, i use because nero essentails came with my DVD burner :D

What software did your Burner come with?
 
Nero is retail just like NeoDVD would be. Personally I'm waiting to get the latest for NeoDVD since that allows you to change the level into to see a longer video file like over 3hrs. burned to disk with the Best, Better, and Good setting not seen with other softwares. Most only burn at one level where anything over 2hrs. has to go onto a second dvd due to the amount of disk used.

The quality level adjustment allows for those all afternoon gatherings or birthday parties that run a bit longer then a 2hr. period. But the freebies are mainly good for burning mpeg II and avi files onto disk while a retail program prepares them for players. DeepDVD Movie looked the best suited for creating playable dvds out of dvd-rs to look over there as far as a free one. The others work better for data disks and seeing iso images burned to make bootable cds or dvds.
 
Nero is whip asss......about as flexible as it gets!
It will mostly burn anything. if ya want universal
then get Nero. the only bloat which i never use is
i don't install the pluggins. Nero Ultra.
 
There are a large number of retail softwares that will work. But what would seem to work best for fallinfrom0feet would be more like NeoDVD as far as retail since you can increase the length of video that can fit onto a 4.2gb dvd-r while lowering the quality a little in order to see by way of optional setting seen with that program.

Most others will record only at one level with a time limit set. While Neodvd came as part of the software package included with video capture cards it is available as a separate retail product that seems to be more suitable for lengthy camcorder footage for seeing it all go onto disk while still being able to clip the beginning and ends off when selecting a particular video file and seeing how much at which level will fit. That also allow for one then one file if more then one tape is used in a camcorder.
 
Nero has a good rep and is quite popular. That will work well if you want a retail product along with the fixed level set. For home videos that run into more then two hours by chance then a program like NeoDVD comes in since that allows for seeing a longer video burned onto a single disk. Even that however is still going to be a retail product.

CDBurnerXP is more or less intended for audio not video as you will see when looking over the informaion there. That won't work for seeing video captures and edited video clips burned even for video cds unfortunately.
 
Win a free license? The download seen there is more of a shareware not a freeware. You can add any background with a number of retail programs. But that will likely be the direction to go anyways to see a full featured program that will work.
