Well it depends on what you mean by avi. .avi just means it's a video file. .avi can be raw, DIVX, XVID, and a variety of other formats.

Here is where you go:

I use:

Main Concept MPEG Encoder

+

TMPG DVD Author

+

Nero

Perfect encodes everytime.

i know no avi converter program that doesnt do divx or xvid.. They all have to do it now, avi isnt just for the windows 95 user.

Almost anything is free if you know where to go!

best prog for avi to dvd is = WINAVI, its very very fast....takes me 20-60 minutes for 1 movie and its all converted and authored for you...no need for vision or ifoedit

NERO beats em' all, especially for XVID conversion.................

Do yourself a favor and use DVD SANTA. It can parse any AVI thrown at it, has decent menu options, and cruises through files that chokke NERO VISION and TMPGENC AUTHOR.

I used to use TMPGENC exclusively, but when it hiccupped on some files from those crazy Brits, DVD SANTA handled it no prob.

Do it now and thank me later......

Testing a bunch of video apps can be maddening. I do remember, however, being impressed with the speed of WinAVI converters.

Still, I'm with Shawners on NeroVision Express. The only thing I don't like is that you can't change the framerate output. That's rarely a problem though.

I would suggest trying DIKO to make a KDVD. Perfect quality from avi/xvid and you can fit a good 8 hours on a regular dvd
Only downside is the overnight conversion time required.

Ive been trying out this app after your post. It rocks! Very nice, thanks

[shawners]

you can change the framerate to PAL or NTSC. Add menu, add chapters, customize the size as well.. ANd byte rate.
