I finally think I got everything ready to burn some DVD's, but I can't create
chapters in the movie in order to skip forward or backward when playing on a
DVD player. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

================================
Maybe the freeware DVD Flick
would be worth a try:

DVD Flick

Be sure to read the Guide:
http://www.dvdflick.net/guide.php

If you have problems downloading DVD Flick...
try the following direct link:

http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/dvdflick/dvdflick_setup_1.3.0.6.exe

Save the file to a folder on your hard drive and
install from there.

Burn Any PC Video Format into DVD

To create a basic Video DVD that should play in a free
standing DVD player...try the following...

Good luck.

First...read the DVD Flick Guide to familiarize yourself
with the program.

Open DVD Flick and insert a blank DVD in your burner.

If your computer's Autoplay window opens....just close it.

Click the Project Settings button and go to...Video /
Target format...residents of USA...choose...NTSC /
Accept.

Left click the Add title button and browse to your
Movie Clips and select the ones you want on the DVD.

You can arrange them by selecting one and then use
the Move Up and Move Down buttons.

Left click the Create DVD button / OK / Yes / Yes.

Wait while the DVD is created.

When the text "Finished Successfully" appears you
may close DVD Flick. Now you can eject your DVD
and play it in your DVD player.

At some point you may wish to purchase more
advanced software like Cyberlink, Nero, Roxio,
Ulead, etc...but at least this is a start.

John, thank you for the advice, you are one of the great ones here. I do have
Nero Essentials, and that's where I burn my DVD's, the problem is that I
can't find a way (if there is one) to create chapters so I can skip from one
clip to another. The burn makes one non-stop movie, you can FF and rewind
(to the beginning) but not skip to the next or previous clip.

====================================
Ok...does Nero Essentials include NeroVision?
And if it does...which version is NeroVision and
is that the app you are using to create your DVD?

Yes, it does have Nero Vision Essentials 4, the Nero version is 4.7.0.23. I
guess the application is "Make DVD" ? I thought the application would be Nero?

The application is Nero Vision 4 Essentials, sorry.
=========================
Ok...NeroVision is the Nero app
you need for creating DVDs.

Here's a tutorial...
