I try or tried various programs to burn MP4 to DVD...Basically I get to the stage of Burn DVD.

I have NEW Memorex DCD-R...

The programs indicate the fact that it cant be burned and the trays on the drive open up..

Might you know what I am missing or what is wrong?

I further wonder if its an issue with my pc or not and how would I determine that? I would think this should be an easy process..The last Software I tried was Aimersoft DVD Creator

Thank you.
