There are many software packages to do this, including pan & scan,
such as ULead VideoStudio, Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, etc.
I can't recommend one over the other, but could ask my friend
which one he settled on. (IIRC he selected a sub-$100 package
over the more expensive ones.)
You can use a CD writer to create a VCD (Video CD) that plays
on most DVD players. It holds only 1/7 as much data as a DVD.
