Windows Movie Maker and Windows Media Player

[Shamrocks09]

I've been trying to burn my video I have created to a CD. I tried the CD-R
and DVD+R to burn it on. It won't work on the DVD+R. B/c it says that I have
to insert a blank CD, and it is blank. I've also tried CD-R. It will burn to
it but I cant play my video back onto a DVD player. Does anyone have a
solution for me? or am I just using the wrong type of a CD?

If you are using XP's burning, you can't burn a DVD.

You need 3rd-party software.

Google: DVD burner

Am still using XP here... so I don't know if Vista can burn DVDs (I'd
be surprised if it doesn't).

just google "DVD burner"
