Anyone with ideas?

the software is not likely to work. it's been abandoned for 5 years.

OK, then.

What is the favored software for inexpensively building and burning a DVD that has a menu, background, selections for avi files?

[aedipuss]

convert to real dvd? most standalones wouldn't have played a divx disc anyway. convert all your avis to dvd spec mpeg-2 and use something like dvdauthor(gui) to create it.

If you're just looking for an all-in-one-type software that'll take whatever videos you input and create a DVD-Video disc, without much effort, there's programs like AVS2DVD (freeware). The author posts regularly to VideoHelp, and there's a dedicated support topic here on the forum. (Note that if you do try AVS2DVD, be sure to check the settings before you use it - it defaults to creating PAL-format DVDs, for example.)

Other choices include FAVC, DVD Flick (both freeware, though they haven't been updated in some time), and the commercial ConvertX2DVD.
