"demonKill" are there any other free avi to dvd programs

i have "avi to dvd beta" program and it has only worked once, so i was wondering if there are any other free ones that work any better.

 

Try this one

Old Freeware Version Of Divxtodvd
http://freedownload.softonic.de/windows/vsoDivxToDVD_setup_0.52.99.exe
if you like it you can buy the new updated version from VSO

 

I tried that one and it put the converted file into 3 parts , and then i didnt know what to do to put them on to dvd. please help.

 

My favourite program is the filmmachine, in conjunction with hcenc. get it here: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_tools/the_filmmachine.cfm
There is a guide here: http://members.home.nl/thefilmmachine/help/filmmachine_help.htm

 

What were the three parts ?

 

just parts of the film (avi/divx file), put in to 3 sections and i dont kno how to put them together or burn them to dvd. just compleatly stuck. cheers get back

 

also to "demon kill" how do you open the film machine once you have downloaded it, sorry, im a bit of an amauter, but all your help is needed, so thankyou.

 

is the movie you trying to convert in 3 parts which you need to join or just one file that you need to convert ?

 

Sorry for the delayed reply, having trouble with the e-mail at the moment. You'll need a program called winrar to open that file (get it here: http://6URL.com/0K14) Feel free to pm me if your still having trouble.

 

hi "demonkill" cheers for that, youve been a great help! now i was wondering if you can convert a couple of avi files and then put them to one dvd and then having there own start button at the start menu of the dvd. look at the next message to see what i mean

 

For example: I have most of lost season 2 on my computer and i could easily fit 3 episodes on 1 dvd, but i dont want them to run through the whole thing from start to finish, i want to be able to select each episode seperatly from the begining. if this is possible please help me again. CHEERS

 

I think maybe you can use WinAVI video converter to have a try.It can convet many avi files to one dvd folder.

You can put them into chapters but im not sure how you would go about adding menus.I'll look it up.
EDIT: Right, I dont think its free but TMPG DVD Authors probably the way to go. First, create your dvd files with the filmmachine (make sure you create files not an iso) and then So now we use TMPG DVD Author and "import from a DVD", this will add all the files you added to the filmmachine and partition out all the chapters for you. You can fiddle around with the chapters to get them in the right place, but make sure you don't remove the first or last one, as the final DVD will skip around strangely. Once their all in the right place, skip to the next step, and have a look at your menus. I would suggest creating a custom set of menus for each DVD you make, as it then allows you to change the look of the menus a lot more(And its easy too). Note that TMPG does not let you create your own menu graphics, but this is hardly an issue for tv episode discs. Get your layout correct, and get the software to write the files to the disk, which will take approx. 15 minutes on most computers. Now simply make a new DVD movie disk in nero, and burn all the files in the Video directory of the new disk. Alternatively, if your feeling adventurous, you can simply use the burn DVD option in TMPG DVD Author to put it straight on a disk. The program can be found here: http://6URL.com/0KQ8

hope that helped!
