I'm trying to make my first DVD movie from files captured from my camcorder. I tried a 20 minute test and when I told Nero to burn the DVD it went into a 4-hour trans-coding phase! Is this normal? I want to get to a 92 minute movie eventually, but that'll take almost a full day. Any way around this? It's NeroVision 6 and a 1g AMD processor.

Thanks,

Jack

What type of files are they? It shouldn't have to transcode 20 minutes.

I've never worked with AVIs, can't help with that.

The processor speed and RAM might have something to do with it...

My advice would be to use WinAVI video converter to change the avi file into a DVD then just burn the DVD. This will take about half an hour (depending on the speed of you DVD writer). The processor speed will make a slight difference but nothing really significant. RAM won’t make much difference in this case.
