I downloaded a video and burned it onto a cd. I figured this would work because other videos I burned to cd also worked in my dvd player. I'm running windows XP. I'm not really sure what format it is in because when I check the file properties for my D drive in windows explorer it says avi and when I check file properties when I open DivX player 6.2 it says XVID Video. I actually burned 2 disks, one using the standard windows explorer interface and the other using the DivX players built in burner. It plays on my computer. I have a 1 year old cheapo dvd player. Thanks for any help you can give me.

As has already been asked, does your DVD player support DivX files? I own a JVC player that does. There have been instances where a DVD that was given to me with Xvid files on it would not play on my DVD player, however. In the end it came down to the audio. I can view Xvid files on my DivX certified player but if it's an Xvid file with AC3 audio then it will not play correctly and essentially be unviewable.

If you told us what DVD player you have, and load the trouble AVI in GSpot and post a screen shot of it here, maybe someone can be of more assistance than merely guessing...

These are video formats for storing movies on CDs. However, your DVD player must support the formats for it to work. Not all older players support one or both. Check your manual. -
Sorry for that last post, I missed your reply. Thanks for helping me out. I think I'll just get a DVD burner. By the way this is a great site, very helpful. 8)
