Anyone want to help me burn AVI to DVDs?

[Meteo Xavier]

The world's neediest man returns for another question regarding a complication for a service he did not think was going to be as complex as it is.

I got AVIs. I want to watch them on my DVD player. Nero 6 only burns .nob, .ifo and .bup. I got VirtualDubMod 1.5.10 etc. and the required DIVX version, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do from there. I've looked through software and I can't say I can find anything fully trustworthy. I run XP.

So here I go, begging the internet to help me again. How do I do this? Thanks.

What DVD player do you have?

A Divx player is dirt cheap now..

Pick up something like this, dump straight Divx's to a DVD, and you've got like 5-6 movies on a single disk.

Also there's this bit of software:

It converts pretty much anything to anything.. I'm pretty sure you can get it to dump .VOBs for you.

But really do yourself a favor and buy a nice divx player.

Does Nero 6 include Nero Vision? If so, you can use that to convert your DivX files to a DVD-video compliant format.
Otherwise, try avi2dvd (http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_tools/avi2dvd.cfm). It's a pretty straightforward program, and seems to work well.
Here's a guide if you need it (http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/avi_to_dvd_avi2dvd.cfm).

edit: but yeah, get a DivX-compatible player and save yourself from the headache of converting your videos.

This would be one of the reasons I got my PS3, none of the pesky conversions between formats whey playing movies/tv. Oh and the games, but alot of it was the movies and such.
