Dvd-r or DVD+r are the most common types of dvds you can use to burn your own videos onto, you can also use a dvdrw which is a rewritable DVD, a dvdr usually says it can hold 4.7gbs of data, but in reallity it only holds just about 4.5gbs after formatting, most ripping software will also rip a dual layer DVD to a compressed rate of about 4.36gbs, so as to accommodate for the finished files to be able to fit on a dvdr, the best dvdr for me is a DVD-r, minus r dvds burn and work better in standalone DVD players as well as in computers, and most DVD burners these days are fully compatible with them, so your best bet is to get yourself some DVD-r's and start the burning, have fun.

Do you need a DVD rewriter drive in order to copy a movie into a DVD or can you use a CD rewriter drive. as long as u have a DVD rrewriter software helllllpppppp?

Hi! I have to ask that what's the format of your movie? If the format is AVI, MPG, MPEG, RM, WMV and any other similar format, you couldn't "copy" it in to a DVD, you need to "burn" it to DVD using a DVD burner. What's more, a CD or DVD rewriter drive could not burn movie to DVD. Following is a link about free downloading DVD burner and how to burn movie to DVD. Wish it helps!

What hardware do you need to open and watch videos on your computer?

Generally, when you buy a computer, it should come with the hardware inside to watch videos. What you are missing if your having any problems is probably the software. To watch any videos online your going to have to have adobe flash player, which you can download online for free, just Google it. If it is a video that is not online, but from other type of source, you are going to need windows media player. However, windows media player does not play all video file types. I would suggest downloading realplayer off of the internet. It has played all video files that I have ever used, plus it seems to work better anyway. If you are trying to watch videos off a CD or DVD, then yes you do need some hardware. A DVD-ROM drive is what you need, and if you have a laptop or netbook without a built in DVD-ROM drive then you will have to buy an external DVD-ROM.

No, actually if your DVD burner could support the format of the video which you want to burn to DVD, then you don't need to convert it first.
