Option machine to burn DVD movie is not available on Windows 8

Hello! I have a question! I installed 8 window and created something on Windows Movie Maker. Normally in Windows 7, I can just go ahead and burn the DVD out, but Windows 8 do not have this function... What can I do?

To clarify once again, for anyone who is confused.

You can simply burn a video file to a DVD using Windows disc. But this creates a data DVD. If your DVD player (or maybe the Blu - ray player) is able to understand the file in this format, he could play, but you would see if your player can do.

A video DVD (playable on a DVD player standard one) requires a specific structure and the video format. Specifically, you need a TS_VIDEO folder with your video encoded in MPEG-2 format in the .vob files. Then, there are several support files (.ifo and .bup files). It is the standard defined by the DVD standards Committee.

3 rd-party software that will even create a video DVD in the right format (sometimes with menus, menus of scenes, etc.), but you'll have to search around. For example, Freemake Video Converter is a program that I used to create a video DVD from base. As with any freeware 3 rd-party, always choose a custom installation, because they tend to try to install add-ons you want.

As to why Windows DVD Maker is not supported on Windows 8/8.1, I have to assume there are many reasons why Microsoft chose to drop support.

  1. The video DVD format is a legacy format that manages only the standard definition video (NTSC 480 p). It supports HD resolutions.
  2. It costs money to buy the MPEG-2 codec on each copy of Windows which must be paid by Microsoft or included in the cost of each consumer copy of license.
  3. There are better options for video sharing (online services like YouTube, Vimeo, OneDrive, etc.) compared to sending a physical disk.
  4. There are better ways of video archiving, on optical media, such as a DVD.
  5. There are video streaming solutions in a House for a computer acting as a media server rather than having to insert a physical disc on a DVD player. And these solutions support HD video, not just SD video legacy.
  6. Even their competitors (Apple, for example) is more understood iDVD with copies of their operating systems.

I don't know about you, since I am just a user companions of the Windows Movie Maker, but that's what I guess could be a reason.
