i think you need to capture it via a video capture hardware or transfer it via ilink/firewire cable but you need a converter to convert it for dvd format. dunno with nero.

I thought you need to telecine it...

Malcolm is correct. If you have a super8 projector, a cheap and cheerful solution is to project the film onto a white wall, and use a video cam to record the image. It doesn't take long to set it up so there is good exposure and minimal geometric distortion. if you don't have a projector, you would need to look for someone to provide the service.

Thanks guys for viewing and suggestion.
The mentioned method may record some 'flickering' resulted from the projector.
The films are now being process into DVDs in the US.

Cheers
