How To Burn a Dvd and Play on a Dvd Player

Let's admit it. We would rather watch a high potential Hd movie on Dvd rather than on the laptop or on the computer. Problem is there are some movies that are not ready in Dvd format for purchase and are found only online. This is especially true for foreign movies or dramas. If you want to keep a range of these movies, you have to manually download them, turn them into Dvd form and enjoy watching them over your freedom hours. Sounds easy? Well, apparently not! This is because there are a number of things you have to reconsider when you burn an online flash video into a format standard by your Dvd player. Here is a brief guideline on how to burn Dvd Pal/Ntsc

1). What Are Flash Files?

Flash files are light weighted formats of online videos. You can watch these files online or download them and watch it on your system. However, there is media software required to play these files, because the usual Windows Media Player is not always able to play flash video files. You will need all rounder software like the Vlc media player if you want to play a flash file without changing its format. These files if burnt on a Dvd without conversion cannot be played on any disc reader. It is vital to turn the format of a flash file to either a.mpeg,.wmv,.mp3, or.avi for it to play on a disc drive of a laptop or computer system.

2). What is Pal and Ntsc?

Pal is an abbreviation for Phase Alternating Line and is a video format that is used in practically all countries for television transmission. Ntsc stands for National Television Systems Committee. There is not much of a discrepancy in the two formats, except for minor alterations in the aspect ratios. However, a Pal Dvd provides more optimal viewing potential that the Ntsc. You have to figure out what format you want for your movie and if your Dvd player supports the Ntsc format or not, as some players don't. Even while burning the Dvd through software, you have to specify the format for the Dvd to be burned.

3). Determining Dvd Size and Type

There are two major types of Dvds. Re-writable and non-rewritable. It is recommend that for the first time you burn a Dvd movie, you opt for the re-writable disc, so that if it doesn't turn out successful, you would not have to waste an whole Dvd set. Also check what is the burning speed of your writer and the storage capacity of the Dvd. There are 2X, 4X, 8X and 16X Dvds but some earlier versions of Dvd burners are not able to burn Dvds with strength more than 4X. These sizes decide the capacity of the Dvd. If your movie or drama is extensive, then you should opt for a 8X or 16X Dvd so that you can save space on shelf storage.

4). Using A Burner

There is a number of free online software that you could use for burning a Dvd Pal. However, if you prefer robust and authentically pro software, then you should buy Nero, which is a unblemished set of burning Dvds and Cds with a number of pro options. The software is pretty easy to use and it will turn and burn the Dvd without you having to use an extra converter. The Windows Media Player can also burn Dvds but it is not recommended due to certain limitations.

5). Check!

Finally check if the Dvd burnt plays well on your computer theory as well as your Dvd player. Sometimes there are compatibility issues, therefore always do all your experiments on one Dvd Rw rather than buying a whole Dvd set and then not being able to use it.
