"I have an MKV file that I wish to burn to a DVD, I haven't really had alot of success with it.. I tried to use DVD Flick, and it took some 24 hours to "encode" the video and the audio and everything, and yet my disk is still blank. So I have no idea what it did. It didn't sound like it was hard at work laser the data into the disc either, so. I can only assume. It was all for nothing. Anyway, how does one successfully place an MKV on a DVD? I tried converting it to something easier to use, an AVI, but that just butchered the nice video quality. Some free programs, guidance, all appreciated. Thanks. "
For burning videos to DVD, two points we need to be careful. Are you just directly burn videos to disc? Some video formats like MKVs are not compatible with DVD. You still can't play it with DVD player even burn them onto disc. Another concern is that if the target disc is DVD-R/W. If the disc not supports to write data, undoubtedly the burning processes will not success.
