WHOOPS! I just realized that you're probably converting on a PC (not a Mac). If so, sorry but I don't think the apps below are available for PC.
pSyChO mOnkee,
I highly recommend downloading and using
VisualHUB, which has a variety of uses, including converting most video formats into DVD-compatible formats. I've used it multiple times and it works great.
When I use it, I follow the following steps...
- Install VisualHUB and register it.
- Launch VisualHUB and select the DVD tab.
- Drag your .avi file into the VisualHUB conversion window.
- Select the Start button.
VisualHUB will convert the file into a .iso disk image. From here, I just...
- Open the disk image.
- Copy the VIDEO_TS folder to your hard drive.
- Launch Toast Titanium.
- Select the Video section in Toast.
- Select the VIDEO_TS folders section in Toast.
- Drag your VIDEO_TS folder into the Toast conversion window.
- Select the big red (burn) button.
Good luck!
