Bernie, I use Adobe Encoder but it doesn't fall in the realm of inexpensive.
But 2 really good inexpensive programs are Roxio Easy Media Creator 8 and DVDIt
!. I use the Creator for back up discs and small projects. My first dvd burning
was with DVDIt ! and its good also.

Good luck.

Have a great day
