You might give ConvertXToDVD a try. It will convert most AVI type formats to DVD. If not, it can get a little more complicated......

It depends on the format and the programs you have available. PAL<>NTSC conversions can get even more complex. You should be able to re-encode the AVI type files to DVD compliant MPEG-2 and author and burn them to the DVD format.

We cannot tell what you are doing wrong as you have given us very little information. A few details would help.
