Well, you can't burn a vcd onto a dvd disc because Nero (and I think all burning programs) only allows CD-r/rw's to be burnt for VCD's.

You can burn the .mpg's onto the dvd disc as data and if your DVD player has a slide-show option (or a way to view the files on the disc) then it'll work.

Other than that, you have to follow that guide unless someone has an easier way to do it.

Use a DVD creator instead of nero as it does not really support dvds. It concentrates more on CDs
