  1. Hello everyone! I have a series of american dad episdoes and I would like to watch them on my dvd player. I'm not a complete n00b when it comes to this stuff, but I've always just converted .avi to VIDEO_TS using VSO DivxToDVD then used ONES to burn that onto a DVD to watch. But in this case, I have a series of .avi's (11 files a total of 1.84 gigs) and I would like to convert this to VIDEO_TS or some type of format that I can burn and watch on my dvd player. It would be nice if I could pick which episode I wanted to watch, this may be more work but if there is a tutorial out there it would be nice. If not, i would be fine if it just ran right through the episodes like it was just 1 big .avi file. Any ideas ? THanks!!

    The way I would do it is encode the episodes to MPEG-2 with a encoder like TMPGEnc or similar, then put them into a authoring program like TMPGEnc DVD Author or similar as separate tracks. The authoring program will let you set up a simple menu, so you can select which episode you want to view.

    Here's a TDA tutorial that explains it fairly well.

    This will get you better quality than DivxToDVD, but you could also probably re-author the DivxToDVD output and get your menus that way.
