Although Windows Movie Maker DVD authoring was already supported in [[Windows XP Media Center Edition]] 2005, it required a third-party application to burn the DVD. Windows DVD Maker is designed primarily for this purpose, and therefore features a highly stripped-down UI. However, applications can pass an XML file to DVD Maker, thus using its [[MPEG-2]] video and [[Dolby Digital]] audio encoding abilities in their own applications. |

Windows DVD Maker will only work with Microsoft's own formats like WMV and AVI. Windows DVD Maker will crash and unload if other formats are used like XVID encoded files. Windows DVD Maker is very unstable and unreliable. |
