Convert the AVI files to dvd files, if bigger than 4.37Gb you may have to compress with Shrink. Convert with DivxtoDVD http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_encoders/v...

I suspect you're doing things out of order:

1) FIRST, You need to convert your AVI files to DVD-VOB files with DivxToDvd.

2) If you have more than 4.37 Gb (of DVD-VOB files outputted from DivxToDVD), then compress with DVD Shrink.

3) Finally, burn DVD-VOB files to a blank DVD-R with Nero.

Yes you can burn if the files are 4.37Gb or less. If the files are more than 4.37Gb then you must compress them with DVD Shrink
