I haven't tried the others yet, but just discovered the problem is with
DVD's - the CD's burn fine. But I want to burn DVD's, as I want to mail them
away, and there are hundreds of pictures ,as well as movie clips I have
taken. These would load up a number of CD's.
Is it possible to put pictures on DVD's?
Yes. The fact that they are pictures or movie clips is irrelevant. A
picture or movie clip is just a file of a particular type and you can
put on a DVD any file of any type that fits on it.
However, note these three points:
1. Is your drive a DVD drive or just a CD drive? If it's a DVD drive,
is it a DVD writer, or just a reader? They all look the same, but not
all drives can burn DVDs.
2. DVDs come in two types: -R and +R. Unless your drive handles both
types, you need the correct kind of blank DVDs for your drive.
3. Windows XP has no native ability to write to DVDs at all. You need
third-party software (such as Nero) to do this.
