Burning software

[FRAGMAYO]

What is the best Burning software available, paid or free I don't mind

I have tried using Nero but it didn't like the MKV file I was trying to burn.


I want software that ticks the following boxed

Burns DVD without compromising file quality
Will support a great amount of file formats
will be able to resize films to burn to DVD without greatly compromising quality
Works in windows 8
has a simple GUI

any feedback will be appreciated
Thanks
Daniel

To generate a DVD stream from a video file such as MKV?

For quality I would use software that contains the HCenc encoder (for quality) such as AVStoDVD or FAVC.

Just switched to Nero from Roxio at work, latest version is really good and does every thing you could want. Largish install, but doesn't load rubbish on start-up which is nice.

Another vote for Ashampoo burning studio. Excellent bit of software without the bloat that Nero has become.

Nero Burning ROM was epic back in the day.

Agreed. Very good piece of software. Been using it for a while now and it always seems to work well.

Why are you burning 'movies' to dvds, just use a media centre type pc instead to play them, far far better!

dvdflick is a good freeware tool for doing it though

yeah because replacing all dvd players with a HTPC is practical and cost effective. :/

90% of DVD and Blu-Ray players out there will play DIVX and XVID files straight from a Disc!
