itunes, burning DVD

[judybird]

I bought several showtime shows and downloaded in Itunes..
Can I not burn these shows on a DVD disc?

When I make a new playlist, put an episode or 2 in it, then 'burn playlist to disc' it says, 'checking media' for awhile, then nothing happens, the apple symbol comes up where it said checking media??

Have you considered using a different program to burn them to a dvd ....

installed it..
now, (sorry for being so much trouble) how do I change to that program to download when I'm in Itunes?

Ok heres a theory i don't use i-tunes because i hate it with a vengeance ,so what you can do is some how get the files you want to your desktop .... right click .... open with ...... open the dvd-videos with the new burning software i just gave you ..... burn at a slow speed to prevent out of sync audio  .... and it should burn ok


Tony

See im not to sure if the files your using are designed for i-tunes if they are your gonna have to convert the files to to either AVI or mpeg  and burn to dvd ...... but try that what i just said 1st

Tony


As for your i-tunes burning issue itself im not to sure on how to suggest burning them on i-tunes itself .... you could also try and install i-tunes again ....
