ConvertXtoDVD: http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/
Nero Nerovision (free trial): http://www.nero.com
AVI2DVD (free): http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/avi_to_dvd_avi2dvd.cfm

ConvertX is the best imo.

The best solution though is to just acquire a DVD player that also plays divx files. That way you won't have convert to DVD compliant mpeg2 format and can get many more files on a DVD because of the smaller AVI file size.

Hello, I'm also looking for avi to dvd.

When burning with one of the programs you list here; will the dvd play the files continiously in the order they are burned on the dvd? (For example episode 1, epsiode 2..). Does it come with a menue, if not how does it start when you boot the dvd? (I'm quite new to this)

If you don't use a menu, files play in order.

ConvertX and Nerovision both allow for making menus. Nerovision often has audio video sync problems. Here's a link to a thread to help with that:

I prefer ConvertX myself.

Once again the best solution is to spend the $30-$40 for a DVD player that also plays AVI/divx files and you won't have to worry about converting plus you'll be able to store more files per disk.

Thank you for the help!

I did have a modded Xbox for all files, but it suddenly stopped working so I'm just doing this as a crisis solution for an old dvd-player I have. I'll get another Xbox (if I'll find one).
