Maybe MyDVD tries to decompress the Audio-Part to PCM.

Apart from Kika's remark there is a lot more reasons for mydvd to take so much time to burn the disk. Pls supply some information such as video, audio type, resolution etc.

Mydvd is accepting avi as well and is encoding them to mpeg2 on the fly.

the video is in avi format. i'm not sure about audio or resolution. these are videos i produced with vegas video. if mydvd is the problem, is there a way to fix it or should i get another brand of burning software?

AVIs have to be encodet to MPEG for burning on DVD (Video). This will take a wile...
