so yeah, i'm downloading movies from stage6 and saving the on my computer. its taking up too much space, so i want to put them on dvd's. i have burned them from the stage6 player window onto dvd's but it is saved or whatever on some file format that wont play in most dvd players....does anyone know how i should be saving them and burning them to dvds? i have a HP laptop with windows xp...thanks.

either convert them to MPEG files and then burn them, or get a program that will do the convert while it burns, see Joet's post on the IMTOO software, theres something in there that will convert/burn I believe. His post can be found HERE look for the IMTO DivX to DVD burner

this is nero 7 ultra enhanced
heres how it works. Yes this is the trial version but you will make it the full version by doing one simple thing. When you go to install this it will show you a serial number. Delete this serial number its the trial version serial.
You will then enter one of these serials in its place. It will then be the full version.

this might help you mate, all credit goes to APEX not me

Nice

AND if all else fails you can also try DVDflick at DVDflick.com.
That what I use.
just drag and drop the vid, click on project setting,
uncheck creat ISO and Check burn image (or onto DVD)
and thats it.

All of these suggestions work great by the way

thank you all very much for the help. I wasnt trying to be a dick and not say thanks, just didnt have internet for a few days. So yeah, thanks a lot! I havent tried any of the above options, but I'm sure that one of them is bound to work out.

i never bother downloading the movies because of my download limit, but i just thought mayb i should download the movie, copy it disk, sell it too my friends then use the money to increase my download capacity, haha
or is that pushing the copyright limits a bit too far???

I would say that no matter how benign it may seem, selling copyrighted material is a no in my book...
