Can't stress this enough. So often people use the wrong lingo and that is the only thing between you and a good set of Google results.
In all honesty, the most difficult process is getting the media files to be turned into DVD. I haven't any less complicated suggestions than find a media plugin for Firefox. Beyond that there are ways outside of what you are expecting.
After that, I really recommend you just use the program
DVD Flick (Windows). DVD Flick has to be one of the easiest programs for just making video files into DVD movies. It is especially great since it converts everything I have thrown at it (minus DVR-MS :'-( ). It creates very simple menu interfaces as well.
Some more notes on making this process fast. DVD Flick usually makes output larger than a standard single layer 4.3GB DVD-R disc. Nowadays, new computers usually have burners that support burning to dual layer 8GB DVDR media, but so often people don't buy that because the price is more. So use
DVD Shrink to process your DVD file output to make a 4.3GB ISO. This ISO can then be burnt with a great program called
ImgBurn. Not only does it do a great job of burning, it can also verify your new disc, comparing it to that of the data lying on your hard drive before it tells you "all clear".
