"You may say. "
Lemme 'splain.
I'm going to go to a friend's house - who does NOT have Vegas or DVD Architect - who has a CRT SD TV, albeit a large one (42") and he only has the Windows Media Player that comes with Win7 Pro 64-bit. He has a collection of mostly SD 640x480 .WMV video files that he would like to view on his CRT TV instead of his rather small 19" 4:3 LCD computer screen. The recliner is also more comfortable than the dinner table chair he has as a computer seat...
So that's what I'll be working with to burn the DVD to play on his TV. When I return here later, hopefully I'll have more info on his stand-alone DVD player plugged into his TV (to see what files it can and cannot play). I've never used WMP for burning a movie, but it's not that difficult. But here is what I'd like to do:
-- Autoplay (which I know can be selected in WMP's process).
-- Some menu or some interface whereby he can choose what clip to watch (may be asking too much of WMP, dunno at this point.)
Now, he may have Nero installed and/or I can bring my disk down and install it IF using Nero would be more intuitive and easy to pull this off. And obviously we're not dealing with high tech and HD expectations due to that the TV is 640x480. But he's fine with that.
If you have any suggestions or tips going either route, they are welcome.
