Run 'Nero Vision' > 'Make DVD' > 'DVD Video' and either browse to or drag the file onto the window and proceed to burn.

Well that answer depends if you want to simply burn the DivX file onto a disc (to play on PC or DivX DVD player) or create a disc that can be played on regular DVD players?

That's fair comment, except that if you simply wanted to burn it to the disk as data, then the post heading would be redundant.

attar, I'm not going to argue over this but how would that title be redundant?
Nero burns data discs!
It's all good. I hope your advice was what he was after. :-D

Do you have a DivX DVD player? If you do just rename the extension to avi and burn it as a data disc. If you don't have a DivX player, then your only option is to recode as attar suggested.

Definitely leave it as DivX with the extension changed to avi. Anytime you re-encode something, some quality will be lost.
Just one question... You said it was quite big. Just how big do you mean? Is it more than 4.35gb?
attar, I don't mean to cause any tension here but I think my point has been proven.

Turn into something = modify= alter=convert.
From the way the title was worded, it looks like the OP was asking about how to convert the Divx into something else,to watch it on his DVD player, and that something else would only be a DVD compilation. It is a no brainer, if you have a Divx player and a Divx video, then no "transformation into something" is needed.
If you have a certified Divx player, and want to play a movie in a divx container,shouldn't have to change the extension to Avi.

You may want to research a bit deeper before you try to prove my posts inaccurate.
a DivX file with the DivX extension can only play on DivX Ultra certified devices. Regular DivX certification only plays DivX from an avi container. Luckily enough the DivX container is backwards compatible, meaning you can simply change the extension to avi and it will play on a player with standard DivX certification.
Also, we all know that people sometimes don't word things as clearly as we would like. I had enough insight to read between the lines, which in the end I was proven right. So, cyprusrom what exactly are you trying to say?

Okay, I guess I have to congratulate you for your insight?!Good job:~)
Like you said, without meaning to cause any tension:~), I would say that you were not correct in your last statement,and I was only half right in my previous statement.
A divx container does not play only in a Divx Ultra Certified device,like you stated.It will also play in some regular Divx Certified players, just not be able to use the extra features of the divx container. There is backwards compatibility of .divx format, but that does not mean just simply tricking the player by renaming to avi. The player doesn't just read the "extension". There might be some players that will not play the .divx extension but play okay if simply changed to avi(generally older players). However, that is not a "general" fix.Some old players will not play the divx container at all,even if you rename it to avi. It will not play unless you "re-wrap" it into an AVI container(which could be done in a couple of minutes with Avimux Gui, for example.
There is "partial backwards compatibility with AVI, so that players that do not support the new features available to the .divx container format(the Ultra features) (like interactive menus, chapter points and XSUB subtitles) can at least play that primary video stream (usually the main movie if the .divx contain multiple video streams like special features like bonus materials)."
Piss me off, and I Will ignore You!

cyprusrom, first of all... I have no idea why you came here on behalf of attar looking to prove me wrong.
In regards to the DivX Ultra backwards compatability, I was passing on information that I gained from the DivX website itself. Of course I knew that it would only play the primary video/audio stream as that is what an avi container is capable of. The DivX container is what supports the advanced interactive features as you mentioned.
I saw a post in which I felt maybe, just maybe the information given may not be exactly what the OP was after. Which turned out that my instincts were right. Is this what I get for trying to help someone?

@Ryu77
First, my appologies if somehow you felt that my initial message was meant "against" you. I wasn't writing in behalf of attar or anyone else but myself. My message was actually meant for the original poster, cac(member). It seems that, even though he is been hanging around AD for a while, still has problems asking a proper question, which leads to a waste of time and space, since is given an improper answer.
This was just a poorly worded post, but I have seen too many idiotic posts were people can't put two english words in the proper sequence, to make a simple question.
@cac
We're not fighting, we're debating!
You are actually fortunate that Ryu77 read your message from a different angle, otherwise you could've spent a few hours going through an unnecessary process of converting to DVD. Must write better.

Yes I agree with you cyprusrom. I have seen this happen many times. I even find myself often repeating an answer on the same thread that I had already given to someone else. It is because of this I have learnt to read between the lines.
I believe people come here for help because they aren't as knowledgeable as you or I. I always keep this in mind when I answer posts and I like to be as clear as possible giving as many alternatives as possible that may apply to the given situation. :-D

well that is great way to make a post. Everyone else pretty much understood my post. And some how you are the only one with the problem. Yes i have been here for a while,but, am i a genius with divx files probably not thats why i came here to ask a question not get mocked.
Also no ryu read it like it was supposed to be read. You know cyprusrom you didnt have to respond if you do not got nothing to say good and just put people down then don't respond.
Agaimn ty ryu for being a genius reader and somehow figuring the code i wrote LOL

You are right, I should have not posted, since this is not an English grammar/syntax teaching forum.
Sorry for "mocking" you, that wasn't my intention, and have no worries, I will not bother you with my presence in your posts.I will take my a$$hole attitude and go post elsewhere.
I guess I deserve to be spanked!

thast very mature.I think my 8 year old would say somthing like that. The thing is you dont like to be said anything. Your the type that can pick on someone else but when you picked on or a honest answer back you cry. I thought we were all adults here sorry your not.

Well, maybe you should have your 8 yrs. old write the messages for you, from the way you describe her/him, seems to be a pretty sharp child!!
Fist of all, I never claimed to be mature. Never claimed to be an adult. If somehow you were led to believe that, it is your mistake!! And you were right about not liking to be picked on! That's because I am perfect!!
I am always right, even when I am wrong. Even though I am not a Woman, God still made me perfect!!
What do you mean by being "foreign"? Since the company Afterdawn is based in Finland,I am assuming that by "foreign" you mean any nationality but Finnish?( don't feel obliged to answer, the questions are just rhetorical:~)!) That's the only one that makes sense, so I guess no, I am not forign, but I am a foreigner, with a perfect English( even when I use the wrong tense, or the wrong person!)! As you can see, it is all about "I", "I"!! because the world does revolve around me, what can I say!
Well, I had enough fun:~), and as an imature teenager that I am, I will break off and ruin the game. Want to chat some more , PM (private message)me!
Cheers, and good luck to you!!

Let's do this - knock it off and post about the subject at hand ONLY.
Not who's right, wrong whatever and the petty disagreements.

Thank you Binkie, my thoughts exactly!
Now to get back to that...
How did you go cac? Did the method I suggested work for you?
As far as I know a DVD player with standard DivX certification (ie: not Ultra certified) can only play DivX from an avi container. I have 4 (3 officially certified) DivX DVD players at home and none of them play from the DivX container. The one that isn't officially certified can also play from a mp4 container (which is awesome!) but not the DivX container.
I will be honest in saying that I have never tried the method I suggested to you but I clearly remember reading on the DivX website that their container (DivX) is an extension of the avi container. This means that the DivX container is a wrapper (for avi) which contains extra information to enable advanced interactive features such as menus and subtitles. The backwards compatibility via renaming the extension to avi means that you will not have access to the advanced features included in the DivX wrapper. Kind of like mp3 pro, which means if you don't have mp3 pro installed on your PC then it will still read the mp3 core by any standard mp3 decoder.
If I am wrong on the above information, then I can only apologise on behalf of the DivX website as that is where I gained this information. It is tucked away in my memory from a few years back though so things might have changed since then... ?
By the way since it is only 600mb, you can use a CD-R instead of a DVD-R. If the method I suggested doesn't work for you then you will need to repack it into an avi container as cyprusrom mentioned. Don't worry no quality will be lost, you are just moving the video and audio streams into a different container.
I hope this post was informative enough to cover everything for you. Good luck... :-D

Amazing! cac can find time to come back and do some forum Kickboxing but couldn't even offer the courtesy of letting me know how he went. If anyone else does read this thread, please do me a favour. If someone does go out of their way to help you here at Afterdawn, please at least show respect enough to answer their questions too.

Knock it off - that post was totally uncalled for.
Personally if I was cac there is no way in h*ll I would post back my results in this thread after all the VERY petty agruements.
