Video Conversion Problem

[Avenger2.0]

I have a problem with video conversion and would appreciate some help. My problem is as follows.

I have some.avi files that I want to put on a dvd so I can watch them on a dvd player. I have converted the files to .vob with Xilisoft video converter. But when I burn the files on to a dvd and attempt to play it the dvd player it doesn't work. I think the problem is that there are no .ifo or .bup files created from Xilisoft video converter. So I tried copying some off an actually dvd, but this didn't work either.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Yes, use ConvertXtoDVD:

I've got no idea how software can create VOBs without creating IFOs and BUPs - that raises all sorts of compliance issues - but if it has only created VTS_01_1.VOB -> VTS_01_5.VOB, IFOEdit and http://members.dodo.net.au/~jimmalenko/test.htm#ifoedit should fix the situation for you. However I would suggest you try a better converter such as convertxtodvd. Both Xilisoft and WinAVI users seem to have so many problems if the number of posts here is anything to go by.
