avi to dvd conversion

[jimmie_large]

conversion of avi files that covert to my temp folder, but seem to be converted in windows media format, not in vob and ifo files so i can record and playback on dvd player. i have used many programs and they don't seem to work

Try Vso DivxToDvd. Fast and good results (free).

I used VirtualDubMod to convert.(their ogg files)It was kinda weird though.When opened it gave some error about the playback but I ignored it as I'm not trying to playback.I opened it up and saved it as an avi but the audio didnt work.So I fooled around with it for a while till I found a way.I had to open it with VirtualDubMod and save it as an avi and leave the program open with the file open.then immediatly delete the avi file from my harddrive and save it as an ogg and viola .Nero Ultra and burned a vcd =) It worked on a cd so I'm going to try and burn a "dvd-vcd" tonight.I'll post the results

One set of procedures (other posters may/probably will suggest alternative methods) would be:

1) Use "TMPGEnc" (or "TMPGEncPlus") to convert the .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise) to compliant MPEG2-for-DVD format - Use "TMPGEnc's" DVD wizard/template to accomplish this

2) Use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (a different program than "TMPGEnc") to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish)


**If the combined filesize of the DVD "package" written to your hard drive is greater than 4.37Gb, use DVD Shrink (or similar) to compress


If your O/S is either Win2000 or WinXP, TMPGEnc DVD Author can also burn your DVD. Otherwise, use NERO to burn in "DVD-Video" mode
(As an alternative to "TMPGEnc DVD Author", you could use "DVDLab")
