Actually, here is what I want. A month ago I bought a Panasonic Digital Camera (NVGS 11). I made a couple of short home movies (each between 10-20minutes). Now I want to put them all on DVD (I was told that only DVD+R supports multisession burning). I don't know is it true or not. One DVD is 4.38GB and mine movies are 0.23GB, 0.58GB, 1.12GB, 0.43GB. They all fit on ONE DVD.
Thanks in advance

You should be able to author all of those into one DVD. The VideoHelp site should have all you need to get that done. If you have all of the movies available at once, you shouldn't need to multi-session.

Multi-session would only be needed if you wanted to burn one movie today, then another one at a different time (like next month). I don't believe you can multi-session an actual video DVD (as opposed to a DVD_ROM data disc), but I've never tried, so I don't really know for sure.

Nero vision express2 will let you add video clips as you like in Mpeg1 or 2 and recode as necessary. To see what your recorder(and media) will support,check the 'Nero toolkit'>Nero info tool.

If you've tried and failed with DVD+R's,you may try to upgrade your burners firmware to accept the 'book type' and any other needed functions to transition DVD+R's so they can be read with older stand-alone DVD players and burning compatibilities.

Multisession may not be available,but if you have all you want now,NVExpress will let you add them from a folder very simply...

As NoBob said, multisession "DVD-Video" isn't valid. You'll need to use one of the tools suggested (or another) to turn them in to a single compilation, perhaps using different Titles or Chapters to navigate each of them.

And further to what Ridge said regard booktype bittsetting... 1) Changing the booktype of a DVD+R (or R/W) can increase readability in some older standalone dvd players. But that's all changing the booktype does, and 2) Not all drives (their firmware) allow the booktype of dvd+r and/or DVD+R/W to be changed.
