It's Freeware.
I tried DVD Flick, converting AVI files to DVD format. The AVI files are DVAVI (dvsd codec) files captured from a DV camcorder via a 1394 port. The AVI files have a video bit rate around 30 Mbps, even though the video is 720 x 480 and the content is fairly lame in that there are no fast actions, just people sitting and talking, moving arms sometimes. However, even converting at 5 mbps bitrate, the resulting DVD still has conspicuous artifacts around people's arms when the arms move. The motion of the arms is not like trying to hit a fly in the air, but just normal hand gesture.
So why the converted DVD has so low quality? I suppose the DVD format can carry fast moving action content like a motorcycle running wild, and even showing the perspective of the rider with the whole background moving backward.
By the way, could the performance of the computer I use has anything to do with the low quality DVD produced by DVD Flick? I am using a Pentium III 533 MHz with 512MB memory, running XP service pack 3. I ran just one application (DVD Flick) and the Windows Task Manager, to see that memory usage is on order of 400 MB.
