You find out by opening the Program and seeing if there is any bit that says, "Burn to DVD"

Incidentally "Windows Movie Maker" which is free will burn to CD and may Burn to DVD for all I know.

DVD Flick works pretty well for most things. I've used it for making compilations of Youtube stuff.

Free to download and use.

DVD Flick

You could have bought the latest Harry Potter in Tescos on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday this week for just £7.00 in their introductory offer. It came with a second disc of Exras.

Previous film is also available for just £5.00
