Burn a Movie Without a DVD Burner:

If you aren't quite ready to shell out the money for a rewritable DVD drive, the CD-RW drive that you probably already have can tide you over.
Almost every CD-burning package includes an option to burn

Video CDs that will play in most DVD players.
Check the section on supported formats in your

DVD player's manual to confirm that VCD will work on yours.

If you see listings for CD-R and VCD or Super VCD (SVCD) formats,

you're good to go.

 'Make a photo or video CD' section.

To compile a disc, drag video files into the CD project.

Most software will convert video files to the correct format for you.

Finish your project, pop in a blank CD, and test it out.

Just don't expect VCDs to look as good as DVDs.

VCD stores video at about half the resolution of a DVD

to help make up for the difference in capacity.
It also uses MPEG-1 encoding, an earlier version of the

MPEG-2 compression used on DVDs, and it maxes out at

74 minutes of VHS-quality video per disc.
SVCD disc uses a better encoding scheme to

record video at closer to DVD quality.
Either Video CD format looks good enough for general purposes

such as archiving shows recorded on a TV-tuner card.

Note: If you plan to burn SVCDs, you may have to resize your video

beforehand so that it will display correctly;
