Burning Multiple Video Files To DVD

[Hanni]

I need to burn a bunch of video files, mostly mp4, some avi etc. to dvd to play on a conventional DVD player. It's been a lot of years since I've needed to do this and Google just produces a lot of freeware programs that I'd rather not try one by one. Anyone have any experience with a free software that works well for this, preferably without having to convert them all to another format?

I'd suggest this:

Just drag the videos in and it does all the work for you converting them. Claims to have a week free trial, but look into the limitations as they might have an annoying watermark or something on the trial software.

I've used Handbreak to go the other way and rip dvds but I don't think it burns dvds.

I use DVD Flick to burn DVDs for my kids to use when we travel. The quality isnt great when you cram 6 or 8 full length movies onto a single disc, but in the van on that small screen they never complained.

This is exactly what my purpose is as well so good to know that quality isn't super important.

I think the sweet spot was 4-5 full length movies depending on how long they were. Lots of those Disney movies are barely over an hour so it isn't an exact science.
