Problem creating DVD

I made a DVD using create DVD windows 7.  However, in the DVD images are stretched and elongated - i.e. distorted.  I used a DVD - RW disc. The DVD does not work in my tv DVD player.  What I am doing wrong?

Hi Kaaawakid,

Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums!

I understand that the images on the DVD are stretched and distorted after burning DVD Windows was created. Also, you cannot run from DVD tv player.

I would be grateful if you help me with more information.

1. this problem occurs with perticular DVD or the DVD?

2. What is the format of the image file?

3. have you tried it on another computer using this DVD?

4. you have any third-party DVD burning software?

I recommend you follow these steps.

  • Problem creating DVD Windows 7

    Hello

    I've recently updated 7 of Windows Movie Maker.  My HP computer was purchased new in spring 2011. It says in my properties that my new version of Movie Maker is 2012. However, he is not seen an update for DVD Maker. I work on a pretty long video in Movie Maker for months and wanted to burn it to a DVD just to see what it looks like on my LCD TV and see if I can see things I want to change. But DVD Maker says that it does not support the file. I noticed that the file is no longer ".wmv" but is now ".wmvlp" or something like that. IM at work so not sure. My question is that it seems obvious that the update for Movie Maker is not compatible with the old DVD Maker but I can't find an upgrade for DVD Maker. I like the creation of Windows 7 DVd and don't really want to install a different source for burning a DVd is there something I can do or install so that my DVd Maker burn my videos? Move Maker was seen some questions and that's why I updated and it works fine now. But now it seems to not be supported by the creation of DVDs. can help you and I would like to know if there is anything I can do to fix this? I would really appreciate it. I pray that he is simply a patch or a download that I need to try.

    ============================================
    You mention that you are working on a long video and I feel that I
    should warn you that the large, complex projects tend to cause
    a problem or is damaged. It is usually best if you create
    several small projects and combine them into a final video
    after they are saved in the. WMV format.
    ============================================

    In any case...

    Seems that you are working with one. WLMP Movie Maker Project
    file instead of a. WMV video file.

    Another type of project file is the file MSDVD of DVD Maker.

    .msdvd file extension
    http://www.Cryer.co.UK/file-types/m/msdvd.htm

    (If the DVD Maker will not import the.) A WLMP file... maybe, it will be important
    Jeh WMV video file)

    The following steps should help you to save your project as a. WMV:

    Originally posted by Leonard_Su

    1. Open Movie Maker and open the project file, you (.wlmp)

    2. in the window of the program, press these keys on your selection of keyboard ALT + F
    Save Movie and choose recommended for this project.

    3. once choose your preferred destination where you want to save the
    film.

    4. change the name of the movie file and the file format of the film. (You can
    choose. WMV or MPEG-4 If you are using the latest version of Movie Maker
    2012 if you choose. (WMV)

    5. click on the button Save.

  • Problems creating DVD Windows

    I have two problems with my Windows DVD Maker:

    My first problem is Windows DVD Maker, acknowledging the amount of minutes on my dvd drive.  I use the disc DVD + R DL (8x/8.5GB/240min) & every little minute capacity disc is different.  Sometimes the minute ability said 146, 273 min or 1070 minute.  At first, I thought it was my drive but I bought two boxes separated from the disc that adds to be very expensive & time consuming.  Why is it not recognize the correct minutes? I have burned several front disc with him saying capacity 1070 minute then why is it does not work now?

    Secondly, I have problems with Windows DVD Maker finish burn my dvd (it's only when the program decides to actually read the ability correct minute of the disc--> my first problem).  The burning process will be 99% and then an error message appears. I've taken a few steps to try to correct the problem as the uninstall & reinstall Windows Live several times, and all have failed.  I had this problem for months & there should be something I can do.  I have the right kind of dvd to burn & I even lowered the burning speed.  What is the problem? Help?

    Thank you.

    Hi Kat_005,

    ·    Do you have any third-party DVD burning software installed on the computer?

    I would say to temporarily uninstall the codec pack to see if that is causing the problem, later to reinstall the codec pack after checking with Windows DVD maker.

    Everything by reinstalling the codec pack again only install the codec that you want to use for your DIVX videos.

    Hope this helps and let us know the result.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • Need advice on creating DVDs - Qosmio G20

    Hi all forum members

    In recent weeks, I am a happy owner of Qosmio G20. The camera is awesome and I have a lot of fun with it. Now I have the ability to create DVD movies because I Dona ¢ A? Â? t want to plug my cam on television every time if I want to watch the material recorded from my last vacation.

    I can connect my cam on the case without problems and can be recognized correctly. The video material is copied on the HARD drive, but when the DVD is created the image quality is very bad (LCD TV). I tried with a few different applications (WinDVD creator, Adobe premiere and Nero Vision Express), but always with the same result.

    I'll be very grateful if any of you have experience with the creations of DVD and try to explain to me what can do to make it better.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Could have different reasons:

    -Kompression
    try to set the MPEG compression at a higher quality (means: larger file size-> better.)

    -Cables used:

    Try to use RGB (SCART, YUV) or cable (aka Hosiden) SVHS instead of Chinch-video (aka FBAS).
    Also try to use good quality cables (not only those in the category - 5) here.

    -Monitor the device (used TV)
    Try to see the videos on a common TUBE TV (CRT) (not LCD or Plasma, not even on the tube cathode-pc screens)
    On the LCD or PLASMA TV screen you will be self a greater amount of compression artifacts.

    Please tell me if this solves the problem.

    Hello

    It is not easy to say what the problem is here, but in my opinion, you should try to use a third party burning application, try to create DVDs.

    I can recommend Nero Express. I tested it on Qosmio G20 and it works perfectly. I also have very good results with Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5. It works perfectly.

    Thank you for your response back!

    How long have you not been able to access Windows DVD maker?  I suggest you visit the link below and following the steps to see if this solves the problem.  Have you ever been able to use Windows DVD Maker without any problems in the past?  Have you tried to do a system restore if it already worked?

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306331

    The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
