Thanks Pieter,

The thing is, I want to make a CD (not a DVD) with the video. 

(Actually I don't have a dvd-burner, only cd and [because dvd's are not 
important to me] I'll wait with buying a new device until it's more clear 
what will be the new dvd-standard and prices come down...)

So I need a way to bring that video into a format that can be burned on CD and 
read on almost every PC (and, but only if possible, on home-dvd-drives on 
TV).

I know, there are "video-CD's" but I don't know how to make it and what codecs 
I have to use. Anyway, I don't care what format as long as people can easily 
look at it...

Any hints?

Daniel
