I burned my first Divx-encoded .avi file to DVD-R using WinAVI today. Everything seemed go to smoothly...or so I thought. I had no problems at all burning the DVD-R; when I viewed the finished product on my standalone DVD player, the audio/video was in perfect sync and the audio/video quality was spot-on - except that the video was in black and white (with a slight orange tint). I had previously viewed the .avi file on my laptop using Windows Media Player and everything was fine (color picture). Any ideas on what may have gone wrong? Thanks in advance for any helpful hints!
Thanks for the alternate solution - I'll give DVD Flick a try. However, I'm not ready to throw WinAVI completely under the bus at this point...could a wonky disc cause the burn to end up in black and white?
Thanks for the feedback - I'm using Maxell DVD-Rs; I assume they're generally of decent quality. And after I burned the color movie to DVD, I burned an older black/white .avi file to DVD, which turned out fine - no tinting/discoloration. Of course, the fact that it's already in black and white makes it difficult to draw any solid conclusion. Once I use DVD Flick to re-burn the color .avi, I'll post my results. Again, thanks!
