          Total disaster,it said the burn was successful and it took 20mins to burn but at the end nothing had been burnt on the disc, so am still struggling.

            some thing will have been burnt on the disc but in what fomat, the file format has to be readable in the cd,dvd drive you are using you cannot take a raw video file and burn it to disc and expect your optical drive to read it.
            put your stick back into your pc go to my computer and select it then right click and select properties then post the file format that shows it will be for instance mpg,mepg etc.
