    How do I make it so I can watch .AVI files on a DVD on my DVD Player?

    Some of my .AVIs are in XviD and DivX so how do I get to be re-encoded without it?

    And how do I configure FFDShow? It's going to be the compressor and I have no idea how to use it.

    just thought id add my twopenny worth i hope you have winavi 6.3
    because ive heard later upgrades have a few problems i dont have any with 6.3
    but u must have the right codecs installed and you need {real alternative} and {quicktime} installed hope this helps its a lot faster than nero and the quality is as good in my opinion

    I don't know about "real alternative" or "quicktime", all I have installed is the comprehansive K-Lite codec pack. With it, never had a codec problem using Winavi to convert avi/divx files.

    These are the only codecs i use and never had any problems
    if you use nero to burn dvds you need their codecs ie svcd to dvd

    I can't install ffdshow. I'm on a completely, entirely fresh install of windows xp pro for the third time today, and every time I try to run the latest installer for ffdshow it fails out and says that it can't register the file "ffdshow.ax." anyone know what's up with that? it's driving me INSANE that it's not working on this computer. it works fine on other machines, I just can't get it to work on this one. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!
