I have some videos that are in AVI format and wish to transfer them onto blank DVD's

I have been told to convert them to MPEG first and than transfer them to DVD and then burn the VOB files onto DVD's

I have done this but the resulting DVD is unreadable in all my dvd players

I have used WINAVI, Magic Video Converter (using NERO for last leg from VOB to dvd),

Every program writes to the DVD and looks like it should run but doesnt work in any dvd (Thought maybe it wa a dvd player problem)

Any suggestions would be helpful

and looking in afterdawn for instructions they call for a convaluted mesh of instructions that doesnt look very helpful

you would think all the programs that advertise to transfer AVI to dvd would do it easily, but they dont

What am I doing wrong?

After you burn the DVD, try to play it from your burner.Do they play in your computer? What kind of discs are you using DVD+/-R(W)? What kind of burner do you have?

Try DVD Flick, it's free and easy and will do everything from the conversion to the burning all in one program.

As cyprusrom pointed out though, have a look at your blank media as you may be seeing a compatability issue.

I love DVD Flick! The only free avi converter that does great with removable subtitles(to my knowledge). If you're a kungfuholic, most movies are in some asian language. Loved your guide!

That is what I was going for. If you DVD+Rs and the burner supports it, booktyping to ROM might fix the playback issue.

from what you say and apps used i guess the dvd you made is ok but me thinks the discs used may be the prob...

like mentioned if +R format did you booktype?

use an app to tell us the dye media code info, like imgburn / dvdinfo pro / dvd identifier etc...
