thats the shit im talkin bout lol

u can burn any movie on a cdr aslong as the movie is 700mb or less, i suggest u get 700mb 80 mins cdr's cuz thats the average size for a movie, and yes u can copy them onto ur hd any time u want after they are on cd hope this helps

where do you download movies from?

[phez]

if you want your movies to play on tv ->

you must burn them in vcd/svcd format. get the movie in that format, or you have to convert if first. theres lot of sites online on how to do this, just hit up google.

you need to make sure the movie follows the vcd/svcd format otherwise it wont play.

if youre burning just to backup or something, just burn them straight to the cd (a data cd).

[brown pride]

u should get a dvd burner and burn onto that- better quality than svcd and vcd. or get a bigger hard drive, they dont really cost that much.
