WebsiteWindows Vista: Features Explained: DVD Maker

Windows DVD Maker is an application included in premium editions of Windows Vista that is designed to enable the creation of DVD movies in Windows. It serves as a companion program to Windows Movie Maker.

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.
