LOL mine is purple because I changed the skin.

Contact Nero it sounds like a problem with their program. Make sure you have their "Info Tool" downloaded as well. They will want that report.

I wish I could help you more, but it is very difficult to remotely diagnose someone else's computer.

 

now that's super embarassing.... arrrgh!! i tried updating it but no luck.. i dunno what is it i did wrong.. you know on ur first step?on the application section on the left, it shows nerovision express? for some funny reason, the application section on the left doesn't show nerovision express on mine..

I know you won't believe this because I am SUCH an idiot on a computer -- but I can use NERO and make DVDs!! OH MY!!! I haven't done it in a while but my computer-geeky b/f taught me so he wouldn't have to do them for me anymore!!! Its a great program!!!

You are going to have to contact Nero then. I bought Nero Ultra 6 and it came with Vision Express 2. I then updated it to Vision Express 3 on their site.

Yes, it is VERY easy to use and the results are great.

I do these tutorials hoping that people will try it. Once they try and see how easy it is hopefully, some of the "mystery" and fear around computers will fade.

 

Oh hey mtlandis!! I FINALLY DID IT!! i managed to get nero vision express to work.. i reinstalled the latest from Nero.. and uninstalled my Ultra 6, and got premium 7 instead.. so i managed to get my first DVD going!! HURRAH.. again all thanx to you.. i wouldnt have done it without your help..

One little problem now, u mentioned u could put in 3-4 eppies.. I only managed two.. And the odd thing is, despite the fact that they are all 700mb, the second dvd i tried making, wouldnt even let me put in 2 eppies.. so i was wondering how would i be able to overcome the problem? i kinda expected to be able to put in 3-4 eppies as well.. or the very least 2 eppies.. what's wrong?

I was going to give you karma for finally getting it - but you have your karma disabled. Anyway - Congrats!!!!!!

Now about putting more episodes on the DVD. Try this, go ahead and add the 3rd episode. You should get a dialog box that pops up and says something like do you want to use SUper Long Play. You want to click Yes. That will then enable you to continue adding episodes.

I am not at home right now so I can't do any screenshots for you. However, if you look on Nero's site they do have some very nice guides to help you with all this.

 

Pop quiz: Do you know why it's called Nero ?

I don't know Jamie - Why is it called Nero?

 

Its full title is "Nero - burning Rom" - a pun on "Nero - burning Rome", which all you cultured people would have noticed

From the blurb:

"The program's name is intended to be a play on words. Recording CDs and DVDs is often known as "burning", and the infamous Roman Emperor Nero is said to have played his fiddle as Rome burned. This pun is more obvious in the original German as the German name for Rome is Rom (a literal English translation would be Nero Burning Rome)."

Ah I get it - not that I care - but I get it.

Karma for that useless bit of info.
