How to make Music Video DVD/CD's?

[NautcaSprt6]

Well I wanted to know how I can make a CD or DVD of a bunch of Music Videos for my DVD player in my car.
If I download Music Videos, what format do they need to be, how can I make them play back to back, do I put it on a CD or DVD, etc.....

good question. im doing the nav2go deal this month so this info would be helpful for sure...

the easiest way to do it would be to get nero 7. its real easy it will convert all the files for you to make a dvd. iv done it and it works great

alot of guys i know have been buying these DVD mixtapes that DJs have been comming out with. made especially with being played in the car in mind you can find some pretty decent video mixes to play on your screens with good sound. im not sure how to burn your own onto DVDs, but check around online and im sure you can find some pretty good (rap/r&b/raggae) mix DVDs for a quick alternative.


i once say a guy who tivo'ed MTV and was playing that in his car...i almost lost it

Im gonna try tonight when I get home from work and see how it goes.
Now should I use a CD or DVD, I mean my DVD player in the car is a Multi player (I think)

and is it also possible to burn youtube.com videos onto a disc? or is there an encryption or something or that matter..youtube has some great stuff.

i was just thinkin about how to do this the other day. i will have to stay tuned. my headunit has a flashcard reader on it but i havent figured out how to use it yet (wont read the card) ..i know for that the files need to be in .AVI format

For the question about should you use a dvd or cd.. i would use dvd it holds a lot more movies/videos. if you use a regular cd the video quality wont be as good. Also you dont have to have nero 7 to make the dvd and stuff but iv been formatting movies and stuff for awhile now and have tried many methods of formatting and nero 7 is just so easy all you do is click the dvd tab on nero7 and just drag and drop the files. nero converts all the different types of file by itself while its burning the dvd. FYI converting movie files and such can take a bit to format depending on the size and quality of the movies.


oh yea almost forgot, about the youtube question if you can save the files from youtube to your computer then yea you can put them on a cd/dvd. i dont ever go to youtube so i dont know if you can actually download and save the whole file to your computer

Just a suggestion, maybe you are putting the files in the wrong folder.
You should format the card and then put the card in the radio so that the radio can make the necessary files and then add files to the card, but you have to put the files in the correct folder, or u may need a program that may have came with the radio to transfer the files to the card.
Similar to the Ipods, you cant transfer songs without iTunes.
