Burning Problem

[in a mo]

Hi I am trying a new programme to burn some media from the internet ,the programme is" BurnAware Free" I have put a disc in which is a DVD+R the message says that this disc is not correct I require a CD-RW how can this be correct ? ,I thought that to record a disc for AVI files it should be recorded on a \DVD capable disc .Could you please help .

Maybe Burn aware doesn't support DVD writing?

The first thing the program does is asks you what kind of media you are trying to create.
Did you elect "Create DVD Video"?
You do need to actually run the BurnAware program - you can't just drag and drop files onto the DVD, If you do, the Windows burning routines will be invoked, and Windows can't write DVDs.

Not the case.

it doesn't matter if you burn an AVI file to a CD or a DVD, in this case the only difference is the physical capacity.

If your AVI is under 700MB then it can be burned to a CD with no problems
