Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

My favorite, by far, is ImgBurn.

Something with a more "friendly" interface is CDBurnerXP Pro.

Is there any decent free/open-source DVD-burning software for XP?

I used to have Nero 6 that came with my DVD burner. Nero worked OK,
but after a while, started bothering me with "Incredible offer!"
tooltips - which was disconcerting, since I already owned a copy of
their software.

Anyway, I can't locate their CD now, so I looked at the alternatives.

InfraRecorder is open-source and kind of works (it's a graphical
interface to cdtools), but it fails for files larger than 2GB.

Another problem it has is that it saves the huge temporary *.iso to
disk before burning it (this can be bad on small laptop hard drives)

I think the built-in Microsoft DVD burning software suffers from the
same problem (Nero did NOT create large temporaries, btw).

Any recommendations? I'd be willing to run stuff form the command
line, if necessary.
