I have a program called Creator Classic under Roxio Creator Enterprise Editor Gold running on XP SP3.
I was filming my daughter at a volleyball tournament and my Sony camcorder ran out of battery. A friend with a newer Sony camera agreed to share her videos with me so I could burn a DVD for the coach. She transferred the videos off her camcorder and into Windows Movie Maker on a Windows 7 PC. She saved them on an external hard drive and I copied them to my hard drive. My Sony Picture Motion Browser could not detect the files. I upgraded the software to the PlayMemories Home offering from Sony and still no dice.
I was able to view the MPG files using the CinePlayer that is bundled with my Roxio Creater Enterprise Edition so I set about trying to write them to DVD.
I opened the Creator Classic and selected make a Multimedia Disc, selected a few MPG files, loaded a new DVD+R disc and selected Burn. The Burn operation seemed to run fine but when I took the disc out and put it in my Sony DVD player, I got a message on the DVD player that it could not process the media.
Do I need to do a conversion from the Windows 7 MPG format to AVI or something else in order to get these files to burn onto DVD media???
Do I need to move the files to a Windows 7 system and open them in MovieMaker and output them to another format? \
