I am a new owner of a memorex DVD burner, so pardon me if at times I am not so sure what I am talking about...
My question is...can I burn my .avi files to a DVD+R without having to wait 20 or so hours for these converters I have been downloading? Possible solutions that I have found but am not sure would work include
burning a Data DVD disk with the .avi file on it. If I do so, can that be played by any DVD player outside of the computer?
Thanks for any help you can give,
Matt

Matt, hows it going.
You need to give us more info.
What are your pc stats?
we know the type of media you use ,but what of the brand?
THere are a few encoders which are recommended like vso DivX to dvd, or mainconcept mpeg encoder, but with out your stats its hard to give you a definitive answer as to which one i would recommend to you.
Also your avi's need to be converted to mpeg2 before you can burn them to disc and then play them in a standalone dvd player.

Personally i use Nero Vision Express 3. you can get a trial from Nero's Homepage.
its really simple to use. just load up the AVI. set it to not have a menu created using NVE. and convert. takes about LengthOfMovie+TimeToBurn(depends on speed you burn at)
For example:
I use a Lite-On DVD burner with FujiFilm media and burn at 4x
so it takes me around 2 to 2 1/2 hours to convert and burn. and so far each conversion has been flawless.
Win XP Home, AMD Sempron 3100+, 512Mb Ram.

Hi there,
VSO DivxToDVD v1.99 Pre-Release will:
- Convert all your internet movies (.AVI / .MPG etc..) to DVD Format
- Add subtitles (using .srt files / More formats to come in future releases)
- Add chapters to each files
- Create a menu (Menu entry for each file, based on the filename, for now)
- Burn your DVD creation to media, with it's own built in burn engine
If you do want to wait for all those software converters, run to the store and go purchase a new DVD Player that support Divx/Xvid files.
Then you will just need to burn those .AVI as DATA and play them on your new DVD Player !

you can burn avi's straight to disk,but it depends whether your dvd player reads them
converting AVI 2 dvd will take hr's if you have a low spec pc,mine take an average of 1 hr,but for a low spec pc,i.e 1.2 ghz with low ram...up to 24 hrs!!!!
the fastest thing to use is dvd santa,but the quality sucks...
it all depends on what your looking for

Generally, it should take you the length of the movie to transcode from .AVI to dvd
