Yes, a DVD drive which has burning function, a blank DVD disc and a DVD burner software is needed to burn movie or video to DVD. But I don't think you can burn movie or video to DVD ROM. DVD ROM stands for read only memory. So you may burn your DVD on a DVD-r, DVD+r, DVd-rw or DVD+rw.

What rom is needed to burn DVD?

If you already have a DVD burner, then the ROM you select is decided by your DVD burner. Take an example, my DVD burner supports DVD-r, DVD+r, DVD+rw, DVD-rw, so I can select any of then to burn my movies to. However, generally speaking, a DVD-rw is more compatible.


Why won't DVD-rom will not play DVD's?

Most likely because the "driver," or software, for the DVD-ROM player needs to be updated; it is free, and not too hard. Just Google any of these phrases to get started.
