Mm okay.
So I have a wmv file that I need to be able to play on a dvd player by tomorrow.

I've only found things saying about DVD-Rs but, my mom threw all those discs away.

And I know my brother used to burn DVD's on to CD-Rs all the time, but hes not picking up the phone.
Umm help anybody?

How big is the file, if it is in GBs you may need to compress it.

It's 36.3MB (38,146,048 bytes)
Its just a 7 minute video.

Try experimenting with a CD-RW first, if you mess up you can format the disk and try something else. Can your DVD player play Video disks "VCD"? If so try converting the video to VCD format and burn it to a CD-RW.

Seems like wasted space.
Plus you know nobody on Teenspot is going to dig through the forums for something months later.

But if it will keep your dick in your pants.
Advanced X Video Converter > Nero > CD-R > DVD

Do you have to pay to use it, if not then it is freeware.
