hi i have got some avi files and i want to know how to burn convert them and burn them onto a dvd so that my playstation and other dvd players will play them. how can i do this?
The AVIs must be converted to DVD compliant files unless you have a player that recognizes and plays AVIs. Most players don't. Several programs will do this. Among them are: NeroVision (part of the Nero suite): http://nero.com (free trial) VTO ConvertXtoDVD: http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/
i am happy.i have a software,is imtoo avi to dvd converter.it burn/convert avi,mpeg(playable on DVD player) you can try to use it. http://www.imtoo.com/avi-to-dvd-converter.html
ok so if i change it to mpeg it will work on dvd players. If so do i change it to mpeg-1 or mpeg-2 or doesn't it matter.
It is more than just the type of video file encoding. DVD compliancy also involves how files are structured and the manner in which the DVD is structured. That's why you must use a DVD authoring program of some type. Another easy to use program to do the conversion I didn't mention above is Intervideo's DVD Copy 4 which is a commercial program with a free trial period. http://www.intervideo.com/jsp/InterVideoDVDCopy_Profile.jsp In NeroVision: Select Make a DVD video Add the AVI files Make a menu if desired Burn NeroVision Basics guide: http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/NVE Basics.pdf
I have found that a program called DVDsanta works, it will convert any type of file to dvd format very easially but it takes the length of the movie. it is a pay program but i just got the torrent and cracked it!
fyi: Every DVD you burn MUST have its files in a folder called VIDEO_TS. This is part of the DVD structure & your files won't work w/out it. Some DVDs also have an AUDIO_TS folder, which may have files in it OR may be empty Commons files in the VIDEO_TS folder include: VIDEO_TS.BUP VIDEO_TS.IFO VIDEO_TS.VOB other files might be named as VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_0.VOB, etc. This depends on the disc, its not universal (i think) Remember: Burn @2X or 4X if possible, use good media (Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim are the best), and close all non-ESSENTIAL programs. Good luck on your project LOL@ [bold]pirate420[/bold] username
ConvertXtoDVD is the best software to use! All you need to do (to get rid of that pesky watermark) is buy it. Done deal. The best thing about it, it gives you a year full of free updates!
http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd Good price for 35euros. I see they update the sw frequently too.
