How do I convert and burn a video to a DVD so that I can play it in DVD players?

Yahoo User

I would want to burn movies I have in my computer (mostly AVI files) in an empty DVD so that I can watch it in my car's DVD player. What do I have to do so that any DVD player can play the video I burned to the DVD? Do I have to convert the AVI video to some other format first? How do I burn it to the empty DVD afterwards? If possible, I would want a program which can convert/burn without leaving a watermark. Thanks for the help. Sorry if my question is kind of long, I'm not very good with technology.

Broken portable dvd player?

stratusphe

I have a couple of broken portable dvd players screens work but player does not.....Any ideas of what i could do with the screens? Can i take them out and use them?

Answer
It depends on the player, but some can have the screen separated and used. If its a dual screen system, the secondary screen is usually rather easy to use on its own.

I have a dual screen portable DVD player I got as-is for fopr the screens, and use the second screen as a poor man's PIP screen with my TV. I managed to get the DVD player working though.

Portable DVD Player?

lil pumpki

So I'm taking a very long car ride with kids and was considering the dual screen dvd player for the car. Then I was thinking I should get a single portable to take with me other places. Any ideas on it? Which would be a better investment. Most singles I've seen are almost as much as the dual screen.

Answer
Opt for what best suites your needs, most cheaper dual screens are somewhat unreliable, I found Panasonic and Samsung models are quite good.
If you go for a laptop, make sure you go for a functional one, ultraslims are out. The best option would be a Toshiba Quosimo or Dell XPS but the prices are hardly justified. A last gen Toshiba Satellite media laptop would be acceptable if the price fits.
