3) Search and find a video you would like to keep.

NOTE: If the file you download does not have the extension .flv, then rename the file and end the name with .flv

7) Start up MediaCoder.
8 ) Drag and Drop the .flv file(s) into the large white area.
9) Click the ‘Video’ tab in the lower left-hand section on the window and select ‘XviD’ in the ‘Format’ drop-down menu.
10) Click the large ‘Start’ button (third from the right at the top of the window) to begin transcoding the video(s).
11) Once a window pops up saying that the transcoding has completed, then you are done!

Now that you have the videos in .AVI format, you can use Nero, dvdSanta, or some other DVD video burning program to burn these videos onto a DVD so you can watch them on any standard DVD player!
