The files play back beautifully but I cannot see how to watch them via my DVD , on the TV.
Firstly, WMM cannot create DVDs directly. This is what I do (warning: I'm a novice, but this worked for me): Create AVI files from WMM, then import the AVI files into your favourite DVD Authoring software. In my case, my DVD+-RW came with InterVideo DVD Creator, which does a satisfactor job. In slightly more detail: Using WMM, create your movie file(s) (in my case I created several movie files - each representing a separate chapter), then for each movie file: File > Save Movie File > My computer > Enter filename > Other settings: DV-AVI (PAL) [or DV-AVI (NTSC)] Within InterVideo DVD Creator, import the AVI files (one for each chapter). From here you can continue to author a DVD with fun menus, backgrounds, and other effects. You can get a reasonably professional looking result. All good fun. I've also experminted with taking the DVD file produced by InterVideo DVD Creator, and reading it into the 30-day trial version of DVDlab Pro. Many more special effects are possible, but that was just adding more icing to the cake. Matt.
