    Trying to Burn a Video Download to a Blank Disc to play in DVD player..?

    Okay take it easy on me because I really have no knowledge on burning anything other than burning photos to a blank disc.
    But heres the deal...
    There are a series of videos i want to get from off my computer, onto a disc, in DVD form so i can watch them in my DVD player.
    I already downloaded the videos from off of their official website, so theyre on my computer.
    I took a blank disc i have that has this printed on it "Memorex, DVD+R, 16x, 4.7 GB, 120 mins."
    And i put this disc in my laptop, and 2 options came up, I had to choose to use the disc as either a USB, which means i could edit delete or add anything i wanted, anytime i put it in the computer, or i could use it as a DVD, and the content cant be deleted onces burned. So, i chose DVD.
    then I put the video download onto the disc, no problem.
    But when i put it in the DVD player to see if itd work, it said it couldnt read it, or incorrect disc or something like that.
    I have included the link to the video on the official website, in which I chose the download version named "Vodcast" to download. (NOTE: When you go to the link, you might notice that the video displayed says "audio only" across it, but when I download the one that says "Vodcast", it always downloads in video form, no problem... So thats the version I have on my computer that Im trying to burn.)

    So, what am I doing wrong?
    Is it the wrong Disc?
    Wrong download version?
    Help me get this right please.

    ALSO, WHEN SOMEONE ANSWERS
    I dont really know what the techincal terms are, like "xvid" and "avi" and stuff, lol unfortunately.
    could you break it down in the simplest form?
    Also, How would I use this Windows dvd program to format the download?
    Or, is there a correct format on that link i posted, that i could download that WOULD work?
    Is Vodcast the wrong one from the list provided?

    you are putting the video file on the disk in mp4 format. most dvd players only support dvd video or xvid encoded avi files. you will need to use a dvd creator utility. windows dvd creator may work, dvd santa, or similar. i havent needed to do it much so i dont know of any great free ones.
