How to Burn an MP4 File Using Nero Vision

Burn MP4 files to a data disc using Nero Vision.

MP4 is a file format commonly used by both the Apple iPod and the Sony PSP to play videos. You can also play these videos on your computer using iTunes or any other type of video playback software. The DVD-authoring program Nero Vision will allow you to burn MP4s and many other types of files to a DVD. To burn an MP4 file to a disc you must set up Nero to burn a data disc instead of a video disc. An MP4 file will not play back in a standard DVD player, so you will also need a DVD player or drive that is capable of playing back data discs.

Things You'll Need

• Computer with DVD-Rom drive
• MP4 file
• Blank DVD

Instructions

1. Open the Nero Vision DVD-authoring program on your computer. You can do this by either clicking on the icon on your desktop or clicking on the Start Menu and choosing Nero Vision from your list of programs.

2. Insert a blank DVD into your computer's DVD-Rom drive.

3. Start a new project by clicking "Data" in the Nero Vision window. Choose "Data Disc" from the list of available DVD-burning options.

4. Click the "Add" button and select the MP4 file you wish to burn to the DVD. After you have selected your file and it shows up in the window on the right side of the screen, click the "Next" button at the bottom of the screen.

5. Click the "Burn" button. The DVD will take several minutes to burn. A window will pop up at the end indicating that your disc has finished burning. Click the "OK" button.
