Thank you, hollywood! Sometimes my ages surprises me, too! Not only did we, obviously, not have a computer in our home when I was a girl, but also, my family couldn't afford a radio until I was about 10 or 11 and that was a used one. Big learining-curve from a tube radio to computers. I don't know a whole lot about computers, but I'm getting along pretty well...with a little help, of course. I'm following your advice. I wanted to wait to write until I had a good burn, but DVDFlick has been encoding the AVI for the last 5+ hours. I didn't realize it would take quite so long. Thanks, again! GG

Hello, all you young Smarties! I've downloaded a Tai Chi video that I'd like to use on my DVD player...the one connected to the TV in the living room. It's in avi format and I don't how to or if I can make it work so I can watch it in my living room and do the exercises. I tried once and, I think, I made a data disc...not exactly sure what that means. Anyway, when I tried to play it I got an error message that said it was unplayable on the player. I then thought that maybe it hadn't been finalized like an audio CD? But, I couldn't find anything in ImageBurn that would perform a similar function. I then went to the help files and now to the forums and don't understand what went wrong. I don't understand single layer and double layer (or if that's even an issue) and I didn't find an explanation here...only the explanations of how to burn one or the other but not what they mean. So, can I "burn" a disc that's playable on a DVD player (it's a Sony) from avi files that's connected to my TV? The discs I'm using Verbatim DVD+R's. I'm old, very old, but I'm not stupid. I was born in 1924. I did look through the help information but I didn't find anything that made sense to me. I'd appreciate your help and I thank you for your help!
