Has anyone tried burning dvds with DVDFlicks software?

I just did and it turned out like shit. Bad picture quality, shitty framerate, and the sound was delayed by about a minute, and even then it was jumpy. Wtf. It didn't give me any error messages. I had a feeling it was going to be iffy when it opened up IMGBurn to burn an image file and go through 50 fucking different processes even when I told it not to. All I wanted was a movie burned. Dammit there has to be something out there that can do this in a simple process. I also tried Blaze Media Pro, even paid for the full version but apparently it can only burn dvds in MPEG 2 format. Wtf. I've heard Nero is good but I'm not paying for any other dvd burner when so far nothing else has worked. This is ridiculous.

I use DVD Decrypter and then burn it with DVD Shrink. Downloaded both programs free and have burned 300+ DVD that came out perfect.

I also noticed that my dvds are labeled "recordable" and not "rw" if that makes a difference....

I use DVD+R

I've used DVD-R in the past and didn't notice a difference. Before some DVD players would only play one or the other, but newer DVD players should play just about anything.

Is there a difference between + and - or was that a typo.

Those are for burning/copying actual dvd movies, correct? What I'm looking for is something that will burn .avi/.mpeg/.wmv/etc. video files right to a dvd so you can just pop them into your player and watch them. So far it seems like nothing is able to do that without an insurmountable catch.

Little differences, but yes there are DVD+R and DVD-R.

No idea, I've only tried burning complete movies with it. It may do those things it may not, I haven't burned a DVD in months now so I'm not sure what all its capable of.
