Help!Using Windows Media Player for Video recording and playback

[Ammu Francis]

Hi,
I need your help to know the capabilities of Windows media player for
video recording to a DVD burner drive. I have seen the "Burn" option in
Windows media Player 10. Does it support writing in DVD format also once the
MPEG2 codec is installed in Windows XP? I am using Windows XP embedded. I
also wanted to know if any API's are available that can fetch the video data
alone i.e excluding the skin and Player Buttons ,during Playback from the DVD
drive. I need the video data alone to be displayed in Monitor. Please give me
some options to do this if Windows media player do not have the above
functionalities.

=====================================
WMP10 will burn an audio CD...not a video DVD.

You need DVD Authoring software...some examples
are...Nero, Roxio, ULead, WinDVD, ProShow Gold, etc...
