Sorry but no. WMM can create the finished DV-AVI but you'll need another
program to convert this to the necessary MPEG-2 format files required for a
DVD. Take a look at DVD Lab from www.mediachance.com

No. See

Anyways, export the video to DV AVI file on the HD, then burn to DVD
with any program that'll convert the DV AVI file -- here, you've got
lots of choices, from Roxio Easy CD, Ahead Nero, Sonic MyDVD, NeoDVD,
Ulead DVD Workshop, etc. etc.

Usually, if you buy a DVD recorder, one of the above software will come
with it -- eg. Sonic MyDVD or Ahead Nero oftentimes, so you can simply
use that.
