Is it possible to put a computer file (screensaver program) and MPEG2 movie file on a DVD? One disc for both computer and TV/DVD. Thanks for any thoughts.

Yes but I am not clear on what you are really after…
If you have a Player that can play mpeg2 files directly, you just make a Data DVD in Classic and add all the files you want to go on it.
If you are talking about a DVD Movie with extra data files, the answer is yes but it requires some trickery to get it done!
In this case you need to use MyDVD and burn to a Folder Set. This creates a VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders.
Then go to Classic and set the Properties to UDF, No Bridge.
Copy the AUDIO_TS folder (it will be empty, but some Players will not play unless it is present)
CREATE a New Folder in the Project Pane and rename it VIDEO_TS. Copy all the files from the VIDEO_TS folder that MyDVD made into that new folder. (Classic will not allow you add a VIDEO_TS folder directly to the project.
Now add all the computer files you want either to the Root or to another folder you create.
After you click Burn, be sure you set a check mark by Read Only.
I suggest you try this with DVD RW media at first to make sure is going to work as intended before using R media.
