How to Write a DVD From a Video Disc
A video disc is often in the format VCD. If you want to take a movie from a VCD and make it into a DVD so you can play it on an external DVD player, you'll need to first "rip" the movie from the disc to your computer. You can then use the native program Windows DVD Maker to write the video to a DVD.
