Now then, I don't how VLC media player uses anything.

I know I like Closed Captions (CC:) in DVD's.
But I have Closed Captions (CC:) in DVD's. and maybe I will put them on backups later.

I am a very newbie with DVD's and I have some hearing-impairment and aphasia brain damage from a stroke several years ago.

Right now I want to Burn a file of Photos and Movie clips to DVD-R. CANAAN CAMPER CLUB.

ImgBurn burns them in a PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-109 and Player
is a Samsung DVD-V4600 DVD / VCR Combo player.

but the Philips DVD Player will not play a DVD by CANAAN CAMPER CLUB. Also, the CAMPER CLUB all use Audio DVD Players and they can't play also.

VLC cannot burn anything. And next time remove some unneeded information, it reduces the change of help because people usually don't want to read long posts which have some not needed information.

About VLC media player

VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.
It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network.
It doesn't need any external codec or program to work.

I use ImgBurn to Burn. I used it to burn a DVD. But everyone uses a DVD Player that is not compatible with what I have.

I have no idea what to use.

VLC can play DVD-Videos, not write/burn them as VLC_help said.

If you want to write a DVD-Video You might want to try e.g. DVD Flick to burn videos to DVD:
http://www.dvdflick.net/

If you want to write a data-DVD (i.e. just files on a DVD disc) try e.g. Infra Recorder:
http://infrarecorder.org/

If you can view JPEG images with your DVD player the latter is easiest for the pictures (and may play (some) video formats too).

Both can create ISO images which can then be burnt using ImgBurn.

Ok, My problem is I can see what I burned on a player hooked up to my TV. But, nobody else can see the same thing on their players.

That is probably because your play can view JPEG images/playback the video formats you put on the disc. You'd have to make a DVD-Video (with e.g DVD Flick) to ensure that all players could playback the disc. For JPEG images... you could make a slideshow video of them, and then put that on the DVD-Video as well.

That may be what I need. Can I put some movies on {DVD Flick) with also JPEG images?

I've moved this to Coffee Corner since this is not VLC related.

No you can't import JPEG image into DVD Flick, as far as I know.

I've not tried this however Picasa can reportedly make video files from a image slideshow:
http://picasa.google.com/

If you can make a video using that, then try e.g. adding that video file alongside the other video files to DVD Flick, then make a DVD-Video from there.

Ok, How do I make a image slideshow? I have IrfanView but I can't figure out how to put IrfanView.exe on a DVD.

Does VLC media player have a image slideshow? or Do I have to get another media player?

Use Picasa to make an video of an image slideshow. Then using e.g. DVD Flick add the video (of the slideshow) with the other videos and make a DVD-Video.
