If you have Nero then it should be able to perform the
conversion process prior to burning the CD. Try
www.dvdrhelp.com for all the software and step by step
guides if Nero won't sort it. I can highly recommend
TMPGEnc for all your re-coding needs - there's a link to
a free download on the aforementioned site. Although
it's not that user-friendly, if you use it in conjunction
with one of the step-by-step guides it's a doddle and
once you've used it once or twice it's fairly straight
forward.

Hope this helps,

PS: I'm trying to do the same thing at the moment but
I'm having awful trouble svaing the movie file in Movie
Maker. It's not particularly large (around 20MB) but I
keep getting a "Save Failed" error message quoting that
either I don't have enough hard disk space (I have 10GB
free!), the source files are no longer available (they
are!!) or that the destination no longer exists (it
does!!). If I try and save at lower quality it will work
but sometimes the % save indicator freezes at around 3%
saved whilst the minutes left indicator just keeps rising
and rising forcing me to abort the save!! Any ideas? Do
you think it could be my RAM - I only have 128MB? Would
a larger RAM sort it?
