What is the best dvd format?

I always convert my favorite movies to DVD for collection, and the DVD of course can play on TV or on stand-alone DVD player. So I don't have such problem. By the way, I am using DVD Creator to burn movies to DVD, which is really easy to use and offers good service. You can give it a free try.

mpeg2 video, I always burn dvd with Total Video2Dvd, http://www.effectmatrix.com/total_video_to_DVD_Author/index.htm . Click "New Project", add video files, . Click "2. Menu", view dvd menu, . Click "3. Output", Click "Convert & Burn" output. 1. Support High-Definition video formats such as HD-DV, MKV, Blu-ray TS, TP, M2TS, AVCHD, WMV-HD to DVD. 2.

Wow, most dvd players only recognize standard video dvd which include VOB, IFO and BUP files, and I know the reason why you can't play the burnt dvd on your dvd player, but only on computer, because you jsut burnt a data dvd from the movie (directly burn the movie onto dvd disc without convert to the right standard video dvd format) , you should note most dvd players only play standard video dvd , can't play data dvd , but computer can support data dvd well, You can follow me to use RZ DVD Creator, it can convert any movie files to standard video dvd and burn to any dvd disc(DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-R DL, DVD+R DL, etc) and you can play the burnt dvd well on your dvd player , You can yahoo or google search and download RZ DVD Creator, hope it could help you !

Type in google :Avi wiki or MPG wiki, or FLV wiki, or MOV wiki.You should spend time reading because there is no quick answer. BUT. There is a quick solution. Western Digital Live TV. You put your .(dot) any type onto a flash drive without converting(yep..no convertion needed) and then plug into the usb port on the WD LIVE TV box and the box plays everything in 1080p to any HD or componant tv. It can even be connected to a home network. Very easy.
