I have a JVC Everio Video Camera, but i can not get the video files to burn to a dvd disc. i have downloaded them onto my computer- and created a dvd, but the files just will not burn onto a disc!! what am i doing wrong?? I think the file they transfer onto the computer as - are incorrect - what should i be saving the files as??

The problem's not what they are saved as, it's your burning software needs to transcopr them into mpeg-2 format so that they burn properly.
There are several dvd burning software programs out there...some very pricy and some are free.
For pricy type I would go with nero 10
For free, I reccomend Free DVD Creater
Whatever program you go with, it must be one that will change the format from whatever it is, to mpeg-2.

I hope this helps.
