===========================
To play a movie on a DVD player...you
need software that can create a VCD...
(this assumes you do not have a DVD
burner...then you could create a DVD)

First you would save your project to a
folder on your hard drive as a movie...
File / Save Movie File...or type...Ctrl+P.

Next...you need to import the completed
..wmv or .avi movie file into a software
program that will create a VCD. Most
DVD players will play a VCD...check
the manual for your DVD player for
compatibility. A VCD is a Video Disk
created on a CD instead of a DVD.

I've had success with a program called
'InterVideo WinDVD Creator'...there are
many others...'NeroVision Express'...is
another example. The main thing is the
program must be able to create a VCD
from a .wmv or .avi video file.

Maybe these links will get you started:

If viewing it on a t.v. is your goal - not necessarily creating a dvd - you
could get a video card with outputs that will allow you to connect to your tv
via analog and/or composit cables.
 
Thank you to you both for your ideas. I am going to invest in the Intervideo
WinDVD Creator and try that. I am tring to make a Memories Movie for a friend
that lost her sister in a car accident and the video card would not help her.
I let you all know how this works and thanks again
