right, i want to put a series of short video clips  on a dvd....
my laptop has a dvd writer, but i dont get on with the software, can i use media player to burn the clips on for me? then will it all work on a normal dvd player?
i think they are all mpeg files, no 3gp or any of that tat

no mate, you will have to convert them to be able to watch them on a normal dvd player...
you can use nero to do it.
The files need to be converted to dvd format 1st
In nero you can just input the files and it will convert them and burn them...quite a lengthy process though

does your DVD player play copies?
Also did you try playing it on your PC at least to check?
