Copying .flv video files to DVD

[SurreyGuy]

I have access to some on-line video clips that are in Adobe FLV format.

When I save them to my computer, they show as being on my hard drive, but they don't play. When I try to play them, I get a "Real Player" window open as if the video clip is about to play, but it doesn't play.

I have Nero 7 "burning" software on my computer, so can anyone please tell me how I can burn the clips (which total 355KB in size) to DVD in a "playable" format?

You will need to get a flv to avi/mpeg converter. Your DVD player will be unavle to play them otherwise.

You could try using FVD suite:

Adobe Flash is very different to .flv video format.
As stated, you will need to convert.

I would say 355Kb is likely corrupted .. too small.

To view FLV files, use a (free) decent media player, such as VLC

or GOM

To burn the files to a DVD, first convert them to a format which Nero recognises, such as AVI, using something like this:
