Here is a brief word of warning before we get started:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download<\/a>s from unofficial or third-party sources are much more likely to be infected with potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) or malware than direct downloads from the software developers. The programs in this tutorial are no exception. As of August 2022, the official downloads for the software in this tutorial are malware and PUP free, so make sure you download everything from the official source.<\/p>\n<p>To burn your own\u00a0videos to a DVD, you\u2019ll need a few things to get started:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A DVD burner drive:<\/strong>\u00a0Most computers that come with any kind of optical drive anymore can probably burn DVDs, but if you don\u2019t already have one, you\u2019ll need to buy\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/deeplink?id=2QzUaswX1as&amp;mid=44583&amp;u1=htg\/3061&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newegg.com%2FProduct%2FProductList.aspx%3FSubmit%3DENE%26amp%3BDEPA%3D0%26amp%3BOrder%3DBESTMATCH%26amp%3BDescription%3Ddvd%2Bburner%26amp%3BN%3D-1%26amp%3BisNodeId%3D1\">a DVD burner<\/a>. Internal DVD burner drives can cost as little as $20, and external burners are usually only $5-10 more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A blank DVD:<\/strong>\u00a0Blank DVDs are\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Verbatim-Branded-Recordable-50-Disc-95101\/dp\/B00081A2KY\/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1496956353&amp;sr=8-4&amp;keywords=blank+dvd&amp;tag=hotoge-20\">pretty cheap<\/a>,\u00a0and\u00a0are even cheaper\u00a0per disc in spindles.\u00a0You\u2019ll see two types of blank discs: DVD+R and DVD-R.\u00a0These two formats are\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifewire.com\/different-types-of-dvd-recorders-2482957\">almost identical<\/a>\u00a0and almost every drive sold today supports both, so\u00a0it probably won\u2019t matter which one you get. However, if you have an older DVD burner, check to see whether it supports DVD+R or DVD-R. If it only supports one, but not the other, buy the DVDs that are compatible with your drive. Additionally, you can buy what\u2019s known as\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?ie=UTF8&amp;field-keywords=dual%20layer%20dvd&amp;index=blended&amp;link_code=qs&amp;tag=hotoge-20\">dual layer discs<\/a>\u00a0if your movies are really big. Single layer discs can store 4.7GB, and dual-layer discs can store 8.5GB. If you can get away with single layer, we recommend it as dual layer discs\u00a0can occasionally create problems during the burning process, but both should work. Once again, make sure your DVD drive supports dual layer burning before buying\u00a0those\u00a0discs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A video to burn:<\/strong>\u00a0Whether it\u2019s your own home movies, or\u00a0a movie you ripped from your own collection, you\u2019ll need a video file (or multiple videos) to burn to your disc.\u00a0The total size of all the videos you put on\u00a0the disc must be no higher than 4.7GB (for single layer discs) or 8.5GB (for dual layer discs).<\/li>\n<li><strong>DVD Flick\u00a0and\u00a0ImgBurn (Windows):<\/strong>\u00a0You\u2019ll\u00a0need two tools to burn your discs on Windows, but fortunately, they\u2019re both free. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdflick.net\/\">DVD Flick<\/a> converts your videos to the proper format and creates playable menus, then passes the converted video to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imgburn.com\/index.php?act=download\">ImgBurn<\/a>\u00a0(<strong>Warning<\/strong>: Before you download ImgBurn, read the next few paragraphs for instructions) to burn it to disc.
