burning dvd's?

[fayq]

Ok, I'm up at my mom's house for the holiday weekend, and she has a nifty DVD burner. I can't seem to get this damn thing figured out. There doesn't seem to be any program on the computer that's made to make dvd's as movies, tho you can save data to a dvd pretty easily. I assume I need to download a program specific to doing that kind of movie dubbing thing. (I want to copy a movie from a dvd to a dvd-r and/or to her hard drive)

Suggestions, thoughts? Keep it simple, for technology is not my area of expertise.
