I started off with a Avi. Vid and it was frustrating to burn the Avi file to a disc.
So i now use "WinAVi Video Converter" and this alows me to convert the Avi file to several formats but the most popular are:
DVD ( what i have been using)
VCD
MPEG2
Once the file was Dvd format i have been buring the file to a Dvd Disk using Dvd Shrink.
The conversion an buring proses take aprox.. 1:30-2howers
I just wounder if they is a better format to use and a better softwere to burn with?

To convert your .avi to DVD, you can use DVDFlick or AVStoDVD, both are free. For burning I wouldn't recommend anything but ImgBurn.

Depending on your system and if there are subtitles, it can take up to the length of the movie to convert. Burning at 8x with imgburn should take up to 10 minutes.

If you're asking which would be easier to burn, an iso image or a video_ts folder, it's up to you. It may take a few extra minutes to create an iso image, but that's the only difference I can see.

I've converted about 80% of my files with dvd flick, and the remainder with avi2dvd.....but that program is very picky about which files it will convert.

The only problem with my way is quality is lost

Stick with dvd flick. Avi2Dvd can take up to 5hrs....well, I use the HC Encoder and a double pass, and it takes close to 5hrs to do a 2 hour film....and that's IF I can get it to process the film.
I choose the "below normal" setting on the process priority, and the only quality loss I can notice is if the screen is completely black, then I can see a few lines and some pixelation, but other than that, not much, if any at all.

I'll just copy/paste my reply from a similar thread ~ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/763624/4626042
Originally posted by creaky: I have a few other programs but i personally swear by both DVD Flick and ConvertXtoDVD (version 2.x).
Silly as it sounds I haven't checked the runtime of DVD Flick for ages, version 1.3.0.6 seems to run quicker than previous versions. I only use Flick for joining 2part AVI's, haven't used it for single AVI conversions. No reason, other than i use ConvertXtoDVD for ALL single AVI conversions - i really like ConvertXtoDVD's batch mode, i queue up loads of conversions, hit Convert and leave it to it.
On my Quad Core machine ConvertXtoDVD takes between 30-45 mins to convert a 1.38GB AVI, i find the quality is more that good enough (the source AVI's i convert are of very good quality to start with)
Main PC ~ Intel C2Q Q6600 (G0 Stepping)/Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3/2GB Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500/Zalman CNPS9700/Antec 900/Corsair HX 620W

If you're looking for some feedback on the time,that's cool,I guess,
To view an AVI on my TV it takes me about 2 minutes.
Piss me off, and I Will ignore You!

The days I used to convert and burn to DVD are over. I play them directly on XBMC, no more time or money for discs spent. Now I convert from DVD to AVI to save space.
XBOX.
