BAD: When attempting to load in a 3gp file, it tells me 'extra decoders are required to import these video files' but does not suggest where to get them.
GOOD: works simply and easily when converting video files that the program has decoders for.

Aimersoft Video to DVD Converter is a very easy to use app for very basically putting video on a DVD for stand-a-lone [set top] players. It'd be cool for sharing something like web videos with family [grandparents?] without on-line access, *IF* you didn't want to bother with more than one app, &/or learning anything etc. This *Is Not* what you'd use for projects you really cared about, & it's not designed for copying or backing up DVDs. Menus are about as bare as you can get, with user input limited to Thumbnails, List, or None. Chapters are non-existent.

The program itself, Aimersoft Video to DVD Converter, takes up ~42MB in 142 files, 16 folders. It's made up of a combination of free & pay ware code, tied together with/by Aimersoft's app. It's light on Windows registry [doesn't add hundreds of keys or anything], doesn't put anything new in Windows' system folders, & seems to have very, very low odds of interfering with any other video-related apps you've installed, so very little if any risk involved in giving today's GOTD a try.

Alternatives...
Hard part here is there are so many, though in fairness Aimersoft might have this extremely simple DVD creation niche to itself -- most everything else makes better menus, but you have to learn how. DVDs use mpg2 video, usually with audio as AC3 [you can use other formats, but with free AC3 encoders, why?]. Once you get your files in order [convert as necessary to DVD spec mpg2 & AC3], if you don't want/need a menu, the free version of MuxMan painlessly creates a top notch DVD for you to burn. The free DVDStyler [also avail. in a portable version at portableapps.com] goes a step further, with basic menus you can customize. The bundled software for making video DVDs included with disc burning suites [Nero, Roxio etc], like loads of cheaper apps let you design your menus, within limits... you can change &/or customize most of the menus, but can't create them from scratch. Next rung up the quality ladder are apps like Sony's home versions of Vegas/DVD Architect, that allow you to do pro level work, as long as you're not getting too fancy [on sale you can find this sort of software for ~ $30 - $50, sometimes after MIR, & it also might be bundled with gear]. Often these relatively inexpensive apps will let you create both DVD & Blu-Ray discs. The free DVD Author, often combined with one of a few ft ends/GUIs, lets you do serious work at the price of a somewhat high learning curve. [For reference -- or amusement -- think twice before looking at the software Hollywood uses... maybe your cash could be better spent on a nice vacation or maybe a spare car? Unless you're thinking Blu-Ray, & then you might consider a beach condo.]
