    okay, i have a movie on my computer that's an AVI. I converted it using AVI2DVD and then burnt it on dvd using DVD Decrypter (i used a guide from this site). when it finished, i put it in my dvd player, and all that came up on the screen was "TV does not match". What does that mean? And how can i watch my movie? any help yould be greatly appreciated.

    Well A "TV" is that Big Box that Displays Pictures...Groups of Humans have a Habbit of Gathering arround them for Entertainment Purposes....

    NTSC is the Video Standard used in North America and Japan and Pal is the Video Standard used in Europe, South America and Asia , You can Not Display Pal Video on a NTSC TV set and you can Not Display NTSC Video on a Pal TV set....

    So you have to Convert the AVI file to DVD useing the Video Standard used were you Live so if you Live in Europe you have to encode the AVI file to Pal DVD and if you Live in North America you have to encode the AVI to NTSC DVD...There should be Settings and Options to do this in AVI2DVD.....

    Cheers
