Hello everyone! I am attempting to burn a DVD using videos (unprotected) that I have as files on my computer.

Roxio acts like it's burning and then the end product is a blank disk. No errors. Nothing. I have ensured the driver is up to date. My DVD writer functions fine outside of Roxio. I am starting to regret buying this software. First it wouldn't open the suite and now it won't burn.

I've also ensured DMA is set. I've tried using the Easy and Advanced Burning options with the same results.

You will have to supply a lot more information before anybody can even try to gues what your problem is.

What program from the suite are you using to burn your video? What media make are you using?
What are your system specs?

I have tried My Express DVD and My DVD. The videos are in MPEG4 format. I have a DVD RW, on a computer that is running Microsoft XP. My system is more than capable to handle this program.

" My system is more than capable to handle this program." means nothing. There have been lots of posters who claimed this and then discovered their video was unable to handle the video.

You could try adding the mpeg4 file in Videowave and output to DVD mpeg2 quality. That should tell you if there is a problem with the video or the burning process.
You could also try to burn to a Video_TS folder or iso image file and then burn those to a DVD.
