How can I make an image file of a video?

I now have a ten-minute video with opening and closing titles plus a menu - all created with MEP. I want to make a lot of copies of this video month after month with Nero Burning ROM. To use the Nero program, though, I have to click on an image file of my video. Can someone give me the steps to creating an image file and putting in on my hard drive?

Hi

Go through the normal burn routine as if you are producing a DVD or BD  (select which you need) - in the drop down box at the top of the Burn dialog you will see your DVD/BD drive, click on the dropdown arrow and you will see an option for Image recorder, select this and you can then burn an ISO image of the movie into a folder of your choice to use with Nero.

After I clicked on Burn I got a dialog box in which I selected DVD. I burned one DVD successfully. I just tried to burn another while looking for the dropdown arrow for Image recorder. Perhaps the function for creating an ISO image is not in MEP 16.

Under "Should the existing file be used" there are five options. I clicked "Encode all" but I obviously don't know what I'm doing. In the next attempt I clicked "Use All."

Hi

I think you have missed a step - the option for the image recorder is here in the burn dialog

 

For use of the five options Encode All etc, see this post

I see the same screen as you provided in your screenshot except that the heading is "Burn disc for DVD player" instead of "DVD Burning."

When I click on the down arrow of 1. Burner: I see F: TSST corp and E: hp CDDVDDW, my two DVD writer drives. There is no image recorder: Maybe I need to upgrade from MEP 16.

The copies of the 18-minute movie play in my computer and new TV but on an older TV and DVD player I get this message - Not NTSC. My camcorder is NTSC. What could cause this?
