Do a search of the net to find a free converter.  Once that file is converted to mpeg, you can use it in the Roxio suite.

Do a internet search for converters. These files mainly used for file-sharing and are only of "reasonable" quality to begin with. They are only used by RealMedia (RealPlayer etc) products.

Google for a converter.  If you convert the files to DVD compatable mpg2 format, (and set MyDVD for the same format), then the created mg2 files would not be rendered saving most of the quality.
