I'm trying to burn some music videos from Kazaa onto a DVD. They are in an MPEG format at the mo, but need to be converted into DIR (or something similar) that the DVD burner can use.

I've searched on Google, but I still haven't a clue.

Does anyone know of any programs that will do this?

Any help appreciated

What software are you using to burn them? Try Nero. The MPEG is MP3. Nero will convert them to CD-Audio for you

DVD players will not play MPEG. You will need to goto ww.vcdhelp.com and convert it into a VCD.

DVD is a specialist MPEG format. A full DVD film in DVD format is about 2- 4 GB.

You can have normal MPEG movies, that a normal film is about 1.2GB but worse quality and loss of 5.1 sound.

surely you burn the mpegs as VCD within nero, most dvd players will support this, and you can have CDR's instead of DVDR. Blind guess though, I'm not a fan of nero and not using dvdr yet.

VCD is MPEG format. Just burn it as a data CD and any VCD compatible DVD Player will play it.
