MPG/AVI to DVD

[ttwistedd]

ok well i feel like im talking to myself but ill go on anyway in the hope that someone can help me

ive managed to convert the files to .m2v, as i understand that is dvd format?

when i use the ulead program to burn it to dvd, it still converts, which i think it shouldnt do as it is in .m2v format and it takes forever (burning a full dvd, took 8 hours to do 40%, and that was just converting, not burning)

there must be an easier way someone help me plz !!
