Okay well i have downloaded several south park episodes lately, and am going to be putting them on 700MB/80Min CD-R Discs once i get some. I have already asked andy this, but what video formats do the average DVD player support? Right now i have all the videos in .mpg but i have imToo MPEG Encoder so i can change it into whatever I want. Unless dvd players play .mpg? Can someone please help me out before I waste discs, Thanks

if your just burning them to a disk by just dragging the avi into the disk it may not work. You should just import the video file into Windows Movie Maker, then use that program to burn it to a disk.

Yeah, im using nero 5 to burn it and nero said it'll change it into a CD Video or something for me. So i can keep them as .mpg
