Burning video made with Windows Movie Maker to DVD

I don't get that option. There is no drop-down list. It
automatically saves it as a Windows movie maker file.

Select "Save to my computer" and enter a file name; press Next:
In this screen "Movie Settings" see closely there is a blue underlined link
"Show More choices" under the only option "Best quality..."

Click on the link and make the DV avi choice from the drop down list.

hi,
I am trying to make a "DVD player' readable format. But 146MB size movie
(WMV format) when converted into DVI-AV (NTSC) format, size increases to
12GB. Is this normal. Is there any compressing technique or some solution so
my entire movie can go on to one DVD disk.

Thanks in advance,
Uday

You now need to use a dvd authoring app to convert the avi file into a dvd
mpeg file. 12gb is about 1 hour and this should fit on one disc when
converted to mpeg2.

I do this with Nero Vision Express 3 (3.1.0.25) and it has worked fine
for me.
I save the video from Movie Maker in "NTSC" quality, then just drop the file
into
Vision Express.
