That's if one is actually working with a disc to begin with. What if it is one's favorite YouTube videos are to be played on a DVD?
Yeah... it is complicated. Even I thought it was impossible, but there are only three objects to completing this task.
- Obtain the video files
- Convert the video files
- Burn to DVD
Now there are many ways to obtain these objectives. My process has four steps.
- Obtain the video files
- Use DVD Flick to create the DVD files. DVD Flick automatically makes the menus for you. DVD Flick has converted every file I have thrown at it.
- With DVD Shrink, compress the DVD files so that they fit onto a standard 4.3GB DVD. This is fairly easy since all you do is point DVD Shrink to the folder containing the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders, *BAM!* it knows how to compress them fairly well. If one wants to play around for better (often unneeded quality compression), one can go to quality tab in the back up menu
- Burn the resulting ISO, MDS, or VIDEO_TS folder with ImgBurn---ImgBurn knows how to burn all those such that it plays right.
My steps two and three are the second objective. The third step can be avoided if one wants to front some cash and buy a 8GB DVD.
Regardless if it sounds difficult, I hope this helps anyone that needs it.
