How to burn Youtube video to DVD disc ?

As regular DVD burner software doesn’t support Youtube video format (FLV), you have to find a program that can burn common video such as WMV (Windows Media Player), MP4 (iTunes), FLV (Youtube), etc to DVD disc. DVD Creator is one of the few DVD burner software that can get the job done. And this app can also burn MKV, AVI and M2TS and other HD video to DVD with real DVD menus. Here are a few steps about how to use this software:

Step 1: Download this DVD Creator, install it and start operation;
Meanwhile, you can insert DVD +R (DVD-R, DVD+RW or DVD-RW)

Step2: Run DVD Creator, add video files or load files which you want to convert;

One Way: Click the “Load files” to add video files;

Another way: Choose “Load video” option under the “file” drop-down menu, and you can add files as you want, too.

Step 3: Display the loaded file and choose the video you want to convert

Details:

If you just want to burn video to DVD without adding any special effects, of course you just need to click the “Burn” button to begin the conversion process.

When you are clicking the” Burn” button, here are some options for you as follows:

Burn to: you can burn your DVD to DVD, DVD Folder, or ISO file as you will; and then you should choose where you want to save the burning DVD files; next choose the TV Standard “NTSC or PLA”
Explanation: “NTSC” is 30 fps, which is used in USA, Canada and Japan. “PAL “is 25 fps, which is used in Europe and Asia. At last, choose the aspect ratio: 4:3 or 16:9

After above steps, now click the “Start” button to begin conversion.

Tips: if your video and the subtitle are separated into two files, this software may allow you to plug-in the subtitles for MKV files. Ok, just follow the steps below;
1. Drag the loaded video to the storyboard.
2. Click the video, you may see the button “edit selected video file”.
3. Then click the button, a box that offers settings for the subtitle will appear. (you may also crop and trip your favorite parts off the video here.)

You want to migrate from the iPod to the Zune but the main reason you haven’t made that jump is because you have your iTunes library. I’m sure that’s a very common reason for not coming over to the Zune world. (Ok, maybe not, but I’ll maintain my delusion.) This is a serious issue though and if you do want to change platforms, then your only options are mostly time consuming and wasteful.

For instance, you can burn the protected M4P music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make an audio CD and then use some CD ripper software to convert the audio CD track back to Zune accepted MP3 or WMA. iTunes allows you to burn the protected music files to CD-R or CD-RW disc to make a standard audio CD:

1. Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-ROM drive.
2. Burn your playlist to make an audio CD. You cannot select the “MP3 CD” option since it requires the DRM protected iTunes music files be converted to unprotected MP3 or WMA files.
3. After the audio CD is successfully burned, insert the disc into your CD-ROM drive again. Then you can use iTunes to import the music tracks on the burned disc as MP3 or WMA files.

However, it would be a time consuming process if you have a big library of iTunes M4P music files ready to be converted to Zune MP3 or WMA. Moreover, the information about the M4P music files like title, artist and album will be lost after the burning and ripping process. So this method is not recommended if you have a big collection of iTunes M4P music files ready to be transferred to your Zune.

I’ve made a Google search for programs that can convert iTunes M4P music to Zune WMA or MP3, and TuneClone M4P Converter attracted my attention. The edge of TuneClone over other similar programs is that it applys the virtual CD burning technology to simulates the burning and ripping process.

You can use TuneClone M4P Converter to convert your library of M4P DRM protected music to the MP3 format that you can use on any player out there worth its salt. This is a useful tool for anyone looking to break their relationship with the iPod. This software does cost $34.95 to register but that price does give you what appears to be a full feature application. The best part is that it maintains all of the music file’s metadata. Wordpress has a tutorial showing how to use TuneClone M4P Converter to get iTunes 8 music converted to MP3 format.

I get a new Zune music player from my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day, and I really like it. However, I have a lot of songs in my iTunes library which I still want to listen to on my Zune. Here comes the problem. The music files I bought from iTunes are DRM protected, so I just can’t transfer them to Zune software or play them on my Zune player. It makes me rather headache.

So, I tried many times and found several different ways for removing DRM and transferring my music to new music player. Here are the methods listed below:

1. CD burning and ripping

First, insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc into your drive, and burn your playlist onto the CD. Then have the Zune Music Player or other media player import the songs off the CD and save them in MP3 format. When the music is imported off the CD, they are no longer DRM protected.

It is the most commonly known method. But it is costly (waste CDs) and time consuming, especially when you have a lot of music.

2. Using virtual CD drives

These CD burners are not actual drives, they are software programs that imitate the actions of CD drives and convert music files in exactly the same way as burning CDs. There are many different kinds of this programs available on internet, such as Noteburner.

It is faster and cheaper than CD burning as they do not require real CDs. However, the operating procedure may be a little complicated.

3. Using conversion software

You just need to download the software, add DRM protected music to it, and choose output format. After that, the only thing you need to operate is just click the start button, and the converting process is starting. After converting, the files are DRM-ripped. These software are especially useful for alleviating compatibility issues.

As far as I know, wondershare music converter was one kind of this. After giving a test for some free trials I found it is a good converter with high output quality, professional, and easy of use. Also, wondershare media converter is a cute thing too, it can convert both audio and media files with high speed.

After conversion finished, now we can import them to Zune music player. First, run Zune software, connect your Zune player to computer via USB cable, the Zune software will detect your Zune player. Add the converted mp3 music files to Zune software and click “Start to sync”, then your music will be transferred to Zune.

Ok, these are DRM removal methods and MP3 converters I found, hope it can give you some help when you come across similar problems, so you can enjoying your favorite music freely.

Firstly, I’d like to explain the definition of MKV - MKV stands for Matroska video. More exactly it is about a container (from where the name Matroska, in reference to the Russian headstocks) making it possible to contain video (DivX, Xvid, RV9, etc), sound (MP3, MP2, AC3, Ogg, AAC, SDR, PCM), as well as subtitles (SRT, ASS, SSA, USF, etc) in the same file.

If you wanna to convert your Matroska video with the file extension .MKV to other common video and audio formats (MP4, AVI, WMV, 3GP, MP3, WMA, etc), the following software has the ability to perform the conversion job easy and fast!

Here is the description for Aimersoft MKV Converter:

The program is a multi-functional video application for converting video for any portable device such as iPod, iPhone, Zune, PSP, blackbery, etc.
Convert Matroska MKV file to other video and audio, cut, merge, crop, rotate, adjust with professional filters and effects, even add watermarks. Extract audio and frames.

Input video formats: Matroska MKV

Extract audio from your favourite clips and video and save to MP3 audio format.
Customize the conversion speed, file size and quality by selecting your own H.264 and MPEG-4 format settings.

Merge multiple videos into a single longer movie file with one click of the Join button.

Batch conversion: Save time by adding multiple video files and convert them in a single step.

Done!
