i wanta friend to see the movies i want to burn to dvd. he will use his tv's dvd movie player

[online3days]

hey!

i read a website that told me what dvd movie formats the newer and older tv dvd players can read and play. so i copied this part "mpeg-2, AC-3 or PCM.". the website also sayd that the formats the dvd player can play will usually be on the box and on the dvd player.

i wanted to make some discs for an way older friend. can you please try and tell me what formats i can use that will show THIS on the dvd player on my friends tv --->

1) the menu of the list of episodes he can choose from.

2) the abiliy to navigate through the disc on the dvd player's remote through what i asked for in #1 above.

and i think thats it of the options i need.

and are the formats above that i pasted the correct formats to burn the dvd disc to? if not what are your choices?

If you are not sure what formats he can play why not burn them as regular DVDs. There are lots of programs to do this. I use ConvertX to DVD.

well i see here the videos would be mpeg-4. what will they be burned as in the software as "regular dvd"? i havent did this in a long time.

A regular DVD will be a DVD ISO which plays the same as a commercially purchased DVD. ConvertX to DVD will burn it for you if it is set to do this automatically.

^ what he said , its not free software but it's 100% worth the money.
You can squeeze about 6 hours worth on a single later DVD still at very very watchable quality

Menus are very easy to add (pretty much automatic)
