Continuing the conversation 3 years later! :-) Looks like you're right Todd, FlipShare does not support DVD authoring nor DVD burning according to their knowledge base articles: http://www6.nohold.net/CiscoFlip/ukp.aspx?pid=2&app=vw&vw=1&login=1&docid=ce5bc5965ec74f31b9c07db2c92dc655_KB20616_EN_v1.xml http://www6.nohold.net/CiscoFlip/ukp.aspx?pid=2&app=vw&vw=1&login=1&docid=95cf110d0f9b42fead37d7e09286a900_Getting_to_Know_FlipShare_Upgrades.xml That seems to be a huge negative! I'll update the review with that in the negatives list. Due to this, you'd have to find a program that can author MP4 files into DVD video format. Most of these authoring programs have DVD burning built in. If you're using Windows XP, you can try Windows Movie Maker. Windows Vista or Windows 7, try Windows Live Movie Maker. For Mac, try iMovie. If those don't work, you'll have to find a 3rd party app like the Nero suite that can author DVD's from MP4 files. Wow! Continuing the conversation 3 years later! :-)

In order to make a DVD that is compliant with most standalone DVD players you have to have a program that converts the video into a DVD Video compliant format (.VOB files). The included FlipShare program can create DVD's, but I haven't tested it thus far. In the FlipShare program, click on the "Create" Drop Down menu and then choose DVD.

Does it require HD DVD's or can any old blank DVD work? I have the Flip HD and I’m having a hard time burning to a DVD. Does it require HD DVD’s or can any old blank DVD work?
