Need some help here, PAL .avi's to NTSC DVD.

[Dead Reckoning]

I am trying to convert, oh, about 24 .avi files to mpegs, so I can load them into DVDLab PRO and make some dvd's of them, with menus etc.

So, I used DIKO Gold first. Took about 26 hours. 26 hours later, load them into DVDLAB pro. REALLY CHOPPY. almost slow motion.

I am going to give you the specs on these videos, using AVIcodec.

23 of them are as follows.

File size : various. Around 100 megs each, except the first file, which is 279 megs.

Anyway, on to the important stuff.

Video : between 560-590 kbps, depending on the video.
25.0 FPS (all of them, except the last, which I will go to later)
432*320 (some 324) (4:3)
All of them DIV3 = DivX v3 MPEG-4 (Low-Motion)

Audio: 14.34 MB (various, but around there for each video)
96 Kbps and up to 111kbps
48000 Hz OR 44100
2 channels
0x55 MPEG Layer-3, Supported

Now, the final video is different. it is as follows.

Video: 84 MB, 605 Kbps, 29.970 fps, 352*238 (4:3), DIV3 = DivX v3 MPEG-4 (Low-Motion), Supported

Audio: 13.39 MB, 95 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 0x55 = MPEG Layer-3, Supported

Now. I am losing hope. I want to be able to turn these into dvds (I know it will take a couple) WITHOUT losing jerkiness, or quality, or sound mixups (like slower sound than video, etc)

I have a NTSC TV and DVD player.

I am a COMPLETE noob on all of this. I usually just make backups with DVDShrink. I made one video using DIKO, and that turned out great. Of course, it was NTSC.

So, can anyone help me here. Point me towards a guide that will cover everything I need. I am sorry for the trouble, but I really want to make a dvds of these videos.
