I'm trying to make my first DVD movie from files captured from my camcorder. I tried a 20 minute test and when I told Nero to burn the DVD it went into a 4-hour trans-coding phase! Is this normal? I want to get to a 92 minute movie eventually, but that'll take almost a full day. Any way around this? It's NeroVision 6 and a 1g AMD processor.
My advice would be to use WinAVI video converter to change the avi file into a DVD then just burn the DVD. This will take about half an hour (depending on the speed of you DVD writer). The processor speed will make a slight difference but nothing really significant. RAM won't make much difference in this case.
burning video like that it a pretty cpu intesive task. i don't knwo all the details, but i would say the amd 1ghz has something to do with it...amd is excelent, i've only used it. but we are far beyond 1ghz cpus.
