If you are asking about converting downloaded copyrighted movies, that would be in violation of our rules and will get you a warning card.

If they are not copyrighted and are converted properly and burn properly, try different DVD media. That's the most common problem with DVDs not playing correctly. If that fails, try a different converter and burning program. ConvertXToDVD works well.

Get a DivX/XviD capable player. Can be had for about the same money as most commercial AVI to DVD offerings. No need for any conversions any more.

I should have mentioned, I dont like watching movies on a computer...the orginal avi files play fine on the comp, its only when I convert them to dvd files i have the problems of missing footage and there is more than enough space on the disc.

Again:

By "player" I mean a "standalone DVD player".
That an AVI plays fine on your computer is no indication of if it's error free, and suitable for conversion, as players can gloss over many problem spots, while an encoder expects each and every source frame to be decodable.
