With a smart phone, camera or camcorder, we can record lots of happy and precious moments such as family gathering, birthday party, etc. The fact is that more and more people are enchanted at making home videos. Here comes a common question: how to keep the recorded videos for a long time? Obviously, you can't just leave them in the memory card of the devices. What about saving them on the computer disk? Well, it is kind of workable, but there are some unexpected things, you know, the virus, systems crash, etc. Whatsoever, for the time being, the best way might be convert the recorded video to DVD disks. In that way, we can not only conserve the video better, but can play them on a standard DVD player or large TV screen freely. Isn't it great to get two things at one stroke?
