HHHHeellpp - Burning MPEGS (or not in my case!)

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

Hi guys
Can anyone help me please. When I try to copy a home made
video MPEG to DVD using NERO 5, it wont accept it and
says it can only accept unknown file formats (bups, etc,
which do not seem to be compatible with WMP, RealOne,
etc). Am I doing something wrong or does anyone out there
know a solution or another DVD burn facility that will
allow me to easily burn MPEG to DVD?? (I can copy to CD
using the XP facility, but there's not enough disc space
on CD.)
It's driving me bananas and anyone who can help me will
be a superhero!

Yes it is version 6. But you also have to use DVD compliant mpg, not just
any mpg will do without re encoding.
