.avi Burning

[xXGokuXx]

I want to burn a .avi to a DVD which I would be able to watch it on TV. Can someone tell me how to do that?

Unless you have an AVI settop player that will play DIVX or XVID format or you use a computer that outputs to a TV, you really can't.

To play a video on most DVD settop players, you have to convert to MPEG as in a DVD, or a VCD and sometimes a SVCD.

A DVD would require encoding the AVI to MPEG2 (Compliant to DVD standards), then authoring to DVD format.

A easy way would be a program like DIKO or TheFilmMachine, depending on what type of AVI you have.

For the best quality, you need a good MPEG encoder and an authoring program.
