i use a program called DVDvideosoft you download youtube videos, but is there a FREE program where i can burn a youtube video to a normal CD? i used to be able to use Nero to burn videos to a disc but that was only a "trial" thing. is there anything other free program i can download to do this???
 
If you have the files already downloaded and you just want to burn them to a cd (and you do mean cd right? Not a dvd?) you can use imgburn to burn the files to a cd.

https://www.imgburn.com/

It is freeware and a great flexible little program.


and you can play the videos, once burned on a CD, in a DVD player right? cuz i seem to have a problem with burners, they dont play in my DVD.
 
If your DVD player is VCD compatible maybe?..i have no clue.
 
:lecture Usually DVD players do not read CD's, I've burned movies to CD's before and tried them with my DVD player, it does absolutely nothing. Like putting a cardboard circle in the player would have the same effect.

For it to work in a DVD player, you need to actually use DVD's.

I don't know if putting videos on a DVD will work anyway without a navigational menu created in such programs as Adobe Premiere, I guess it might just autoplay...

I think you may need a special format of video when you burn them to DVD's for a DVD player to play them correctly. This is pretty complicated stuff.

You might better buying the necessary cables and hooking up your TV to your computer so you can eliminate the need for getting DVD's... you could essentially use your TV as a monitor with the right cables...
 
Whether a cd will play in a dvd player really depends on the brand of player; however, there can be no doubt that burning files to an actual dvd will get you better results.

I know my Philips dvd player will play all kinds of media and files and you can watch straight .avi files on a dvd (or even off a hard drive) without converting them to dvd format, but that is not the usual case. Most dvd players only like to play actual dvds.

If your player is like that you can use a freeware program like DVD Flick to author the dvds. It is very easy. Whether the youtube videos are mp4 format or flv format, DVD Flick will automatically convert them and author the dvd and then you can set it up to automatically make an image file and burn the dvd as well. It's a great program and I'm actually using it right now to author a dvd that a program that costs money to use refuses to do correctly.

If you don't have a dvd burner, then you are out of luck and I suggest you get at least an external dvd burner for your computer because they are cheap and will make your life better!
 
I use Convert x to dvd. It works perfectly. But you have to conver them first. Are you converting them from their formats off youtube? Or trying to burn straight from saving them? Cause I am not sure if that can work.

What I normally do is save the youtube video file (mp4) and then open it in Sony Vegas and Render it as mp3 for audio, or whatever video settings I want, ie AVI. Then I save and use convert x to dvd to burn.
