    I have a sizeable quantity of short video cuts from old TV shows I found in YouTube that I have saved in my Favorites folders. Is there any way to burn these to a CDR. I have tried saving to a My Documents folder but that seems to work only on a hit and miss basis and there is no "Send To" link to a CD burner.

    Any advice will be appreciated.

    Nero can do that for you I burn whole TV shows on to DVD using Nero Vision.
    Depends a bit as well what file format your clips are in, some might need converting if you want to play them on the TV.
    You can find lots of hints here:

    Thank you for the response, hawk22

    I don't have a DVD burner, just a CD burner. I'm not so concerned with the video content of these clips as I am with the audio.

    Insofar as the format is concerned, I haven't a clue, just that they are all found on YouTube. Below is one of them, perhaps you can discern the format and give me further guidance.

    Great stuff Ricki, glad one of them worked for you, did you convert to mp3 this is the most versatile audio format, it plays just about anywhere.
    Nero does a good job of burning it to CD, that will play in your Stero or your DVD player.
    When I get a bit more time I will post you some more options.
    Also after converting the audio files to mp3 you can store them in your playlist in Windows Media Player 10.
    cheers

    Thanks hawk22. I did convert to MP3 player and they automatically seem to play on Windows Media Player 11. I have only done 17 so far and had nearly 100 to do if I dont find more things I want to save.

    The video does not convert nor do I care on most. It is the music of my younger years that I want to save. I will be 79 in two weeks. (April 22, 1929).

    I plan on trying to burn them all to CR-R when all get converted. My CD burner is HIMAT, that came with the PC. I think I have a Nero install CD in my pack of stuff. If I do it will be 4-5 years old at least. I want the CD-R so I can use in my car.

    Thanks again.

    Hi Ricky, glad that you are making progress, but now that you mention playing the CD's in the Car I have to mention to you that not all Car Radios CD Tuners play MP3 the newer ones do, so that is something that you have to check out.
    I play my recorded music mp3 in the car with a mp3 player connected to a FM Transmitter and that way it will play through the radio FM station.
    But it is good to have them saved to CD anyway as you can later copy them to other items.
    cheers for now
    you are doing great
