I have not done one in years

http://www.dvdstyler.org/en/

Is probably the most used.

If you want an easy, click and go app, Digiarty has one:

(The Digiarty site is redirecting to Softonic. I prefer
FileHippo. Homepage link is on FileHippo)

Most modern televisions and set-top boxes can directly play media and
photo files of various formats (e.g. MP3, MPG, JPG, ...) . Do you have
to create a video DVD?

WinX DVD Author

DVD Flick

DVDStyler

http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/dvdstyler.html


The easiest to use is Winx DVD Author

Then of course you could also try the Windows built in DVD Maker or the
Windows Movie Maker, one or the other, should be on the version of
Windows you are using

Yes, it's what he said, probably (guessing) to archive family

You are correct about the ways to publish DVD. I was suggesting an
alternative.

Forgot to mention I'd be using win7 pro 64bit to make the dvd

If a TV has a HDMI port, you can stream video to it from your tablet or

Free until upon the 30th day, when it breaks. . .yes and no. I know
how low it is to scrapping at the bottom of that barrel, as I've also
done it to myself before, kept a few such programs and reinstalled
them when all else seemed to fail. It's like when you've finally
reached that elusive 365lb. deadlift, knowing deep down inside you'll
never fully recover from being sugar and sodium nitrate addict. And
to answer your next question -- yes, I've approached before and asked
to work in porn films.

What else did you think I could mean, but other than what you've said
-- that freeware unequivocally cannot be limited by what it is not.

If what I said, should anyone with a modicum for a lesser
understanding of authoring tools concur, among potential means and
standards -- that they conceivably be free from any capacity to know
advanced forms -- perish the thought, obviously and no less
censoriously for being limited gratis timely to assimilate an
enlightened perspective of commercial quality menu presentments.

I know that you insist that your sentence structuring is correct, but it
seems to me that most people in this group (of course, I can't speak for
everybody) don't understand what you're saying. Perhaps you're only
speaking in a semi-Dickensian style, I don't know. Although in the past
I read the collected works of Charles Dickens and understood it all,
possibly with the exception of "The Mystery of Edwin Drood", in general
I almost always have no comprehension of what you're trying to say in
your posts.

I'd be inclined to think that your manner of communication indicates
schizophasia except for the fact that I haven't seen it be repetitious.

Sorry dude, just telling it like it is.

People now-a-days do not read -- ad hoc but to defame an existing
structure of literary styles attendant to grammar and writing -- as is
not written but for an expected lucidity and criterion proffered by
means for a 10th-grade comprehension of sentence structure.

Charles Dickens is no more than a recognizable obscurity to a
revisionist hubris attributable for vague relics contained in written
cultural artifacts. What we have we rather watch from film media.
What we learn we do in educational institutions pertaining economic
means, per force, given a capitalist model so to continue to
capitalize. Less hopefully -- most certainly not that we should be
privileged to emancipated allusions Dickens dealt more directly with
-- but for an affected understanding of instructions we draw from such
as packaging printed in Chinglish backing on our daily goods and
services;- a further abridgement of sycophantic obsequiousness,
however so sweetly that surety rings out truly into those ding-a-ling
thingies placed upside your head..

I'm back on openSUSE 11 after a systemd nightmare on Fedora 24 server
street.

I didn't do nuttin, much. I just did the normal dnf update and all hell
broke loose. Like a trillion messages about systemd cannot start
everything because of certificate thingamabob errors. So I managed to
start stuff manually and got into the system but it was way foobarred. I
Googled but it was mentallismo. So I fixed it by ripping out the SSD I
stuck Fedora 24 server on and putting back my good old reliable
openSUSE. A quick "I'm sorry old gal for ever dumping ya. Will you ever
forgive me?" Two boxes of chocolates and a single red rose in the DVD
drive, and voila. Home sweet home.

I recall an alt.type.grammar for diction and English usage. Superb
examples of prose -- drily concise to the point of interminable
argumentativeness. A reciprocal level that reminds me of Henry Watson
Fowler's (1858–1933) engrossing style guide to British English usage;-
it's American counterpoint, Cornell University professor Strunk's
Elements of Style, White later extensively magnified, White, I
believe, should have been burned alive on a stake surrounded by 2011
Time magazine issues crediting him for the "the most influential books
written in English since 1923." Seems only worthy for a career in
American magazine journalism. Imagine D.H. Lawrence on a similar
tact, having given up on some really quite astounding journalism, not
then to write merely novels, but also to impart to others how to
stupefy English usage to a point of lackadaisical indolence
culminating at U.K. educational standings for Key Stage 4.

Should be George Orwell's early collected essays, some from journal
circulations.

You didn't listen to Bear Bottoms did you? Where's your backup image!!!

I dunno, nobody listens to Bears. The world is falling apart.

I only backup data. I leave the OS to take care of itself.
Unlike the Linux mob, who protect the OS and could not give a damn
about the browser/javascript/flash/javacrap datamining user info.

Of course they do. Everyone has a ChromeBrick, right ? Or
aren't we far enough "into the future" yet ?
