AVI - DVD

June 19th, 2004, 3:08 am

I have a movie file as an AVI format...
I am fed up of burning them to VCD, so i want to burn them to dvd, but the sortware (Nero) Only allows these file types
.bup
.vob
.ifo

how can i convert an AVI file so it will play on my dvd player?

from what i can tell i have 2 options.
1) Convert the AVI movie into one of the above formats. (How?)
2) Get better DVD Burning sortware.

any help please?

A program made by Cucusoft will do it very nicely. It is not free though but it is relatively cheap. 20 USD for the standard version.

sweet ...I'm actually looking for a AVI codec...I got a friend in berlin who sent me a movie and I can't read it...it's an avi file...
I found this site: (thanks to conorific's link)

...I guess now my question is ..how do I know there isn't any spyware in it? how do I know it's safe? there's no rating on the product so far...

if anyone of you guys know where I can get sa safe avi codec for free...I'd be the happiest guy on earth...

Use something like cucusoft to copy your avi into mpeg & mpa then run infoedit(freeware) to create the vob etc files then just drag and drop to nero folder VIDEO_TS
