    Software

    The computer will not be able to burn movies onto a DVD if the DVD burner software is not installed.

    Speed

    The computer will not be able to burn movies onto a DVD if the writeable speed is not correctly chosen to burn the information onto the DVD.

    Considerations

    There are DVD drives made only to play movies, so make sure the DVD drive is capable of writing to a DVD disk. If you are using an external DVD drive, check to make sure all cables are connected.
