I currently have a dvd burning disc drive, and i have dvd+r discs, i want to know how i will be able to get my WMA files to the disc and be able to play it in a dvd player.

Programs or anything would be nice.

I wasted 2 discs already trying but for some reason the dvd wasnt loaded in my dvd player.

you would probably have to convert them to MP3 files, I don't know of many stand alone dvd players that will play WMA sad.gif

i dont have a dvd player that plays mp3's...i have just a dvd player..Want a program to get it so they can convert it to proper format and be able to play on just a basic dvd player

in that case you can use most burning software and burn your WMA files as audio. MediaPlayer should be able to do that for you just click the burn button at the top (WMP11) or nero can do it for you too. I don't think you can burn a full DVD this way though sad.gif

if i make it an audio wouldnt that just make it sound only? and i dont need a full move transfered, just like a 15 min clip for school.

Also would this play on jsut any old dvd player?

if its just 15minutes, then the best bet is just to use a standard blank CD, if its video also, then that would be a WMV, not a WMA. In that instance you would would need to use something like convertxtodvd or similar (dvdflick) they are both very easy to use, but convertxtodvd cost money (unless you want a watermark in the presentation) and dvdflick is free.

Hope that helps further?

One last question, as my dvd player can ONLY play dvd formats )not even cd's) this program will still be able to make my WMV work?
BeLGaRaTh
yes convertxtodvd and dvdflick will convert the WMV to DVD format for you. Be prepared to wait a little while though as it will need to convert before burning to DVD
