then I am using Windows DVD Maker. I am putting the blank DVD+R in my F drive, when I do, my windows dvd maker window pops up and gives me the option to choose “burn”. It takes forever, it was stuck on “Encoding….0.8%” for 20 minutes. I started another one, it is stuck on 0.8% again, do I need to wait longer??? I am using Memorex DVD+R 16X 4.7GB 120 min. ahhhhhhhhhh

If your trying to copy a dvd, then download a program called DVDshrink. It’s completely free, burns nearly every movie (except some of the most recent ones) and you can choose the compression settings or delete the menu, ect. And, it’s quick!

i think thats not on your dvd+r.
how much is your ram?
if your using vista or seven. you need to have at least 1gig of ram
try to upgrade your ram, or uninstall unused program, some are using ram.
note: dvd maker use more ram, specially when it rendering.
well ,I think Windows DVD maker can’t support all the video format ,and have error on my computer when i am using it for burning some videos,so what i did is just change another burning software, now i am using the RZ DVD Creator ,works well ,maybe you can have a try, it fast ,safe and convenient , it can directly convert any videos to video dvd and burn to any dvd disc ( DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-R DL, DVD+R DL, etc) such as avi to dvd ,and your burned dvd can play well on regular dvd player,you can yahoo or google search and download the RZ DVD Creator ,good quality ,easy to use ,hope it could help you !
