Windows Movie Maker/DVD maker question?

I have Windows Vista and have used movie maker and the DVd maker to make family DVDs before. Ive been trying to make one for the last 2 days and Movie Maker works fine but once it transfers it to the DVD maker it starts to encode then stops at around 50% and says error. Or it just freezes. Any advice? (The video length is 90 min, and just to check I tried burning one that was 60 min and it didnt work either so that's not it) Thank you.

    Any video longer than 10 minutes is a lot of work for computers that aren't specifically set up to make videos. Most computers have 4 Gb of RAM, 500 Gb HD and a cheap, slow processor. They work great for most of the things we do with computers but over time the HD has less free space and more things are running in the background using up more of the RAM. Also, short videos are big files and long videos are humongous files.

    Try breaking your video into 3 or 4 parts and publishing them separately. After the parts have each been published, import all of them into Movie Maker and see if you can publish the whole movie.

    Sorry, I misread your question;-( If it's only DVD Maker that's bogging down, you probably don't have enough computer resources to burn the video to the disk or the disk can't hold 90 minutes of video. How big is the video file you're trying to burn?

    I think the best DVD creator is convertXtoDVDs, it is able to burn any video and movie in all media type to DVD-5 and DVD-9, make the DVD playable on DVD player.

    You also can create DVD Menu and add subtitles(SRT, .SUB/IDX, .SSA) to DVD Videos with VSO ConvertXtoDVD. It can create NTSC DVD and PAL DVD with high quality.
