Step 1: Convert W4V to a MP4 Video Format

 

You can use VLC media player to convert the W4V file to a video format like MP4, which supports both video and audio. Here's how:

1. Open VLC: Launch VLC media player on your computer.
2. Add the W4V file: Go to "Media" > "Convert/Save". Select the W4V file you want to convert.
3. Choose the output format: Select MP4 as the output format.
4. Set the destination: Choose the folder where you want to save the converted MP4 file

4. Start the conversion: Click "Convert" to begin the process. 

  

Step 2: Convert to ISO image as follows:

Using the shell script (video2dvdiso.sh) you will find here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Convert_any_Movie_to_DVD_Video

 video2dvdiso.sh file_from_step_one_above [optional additional MP4 files as desired or not]

Note: This always generates a file called dvd.iso. It will warn you if you are going to overwrite an existing file and you can elect to overwrite or not as you desire. It has three dependencies that you must have installed or it won't work.

Note: Also note that there are many additional tips on making a more elaborate UI for your resulting cd/dvd if you so desire.

Step 3: Burn your CD/DVD as you please with kb3 or whatever else you like.
