how to burn multiple avi files to a watchable dvd

hey-
i hear that winavi video converter 6.0 is really good, but i just cant afford to pay $30 to register it! i was wondering if anyone knew where to get a serial or keygen for it.

 

Thanks for the help . scum_1 Ok I'll try using that program to change avis to dvd . See if I can get that to work, How did you make a menu for the episodes? So that I can choose which episode to jump to. I have PLENTY of tv shows to burn . So this could be helpful .


Thanks again and for any future help.

 

you guys should be using mydvd 6 - amatures
or encore dvd -pro users.
encore lets you design your menu and navigation from
the ground up or you can use some of there templates

 

OK, I hate being so pesky, and so stupid. But one more ( and hopefully last ) question.

I have a .img DVD-R that I want to burn. Do I just burn it as an image( just like a bin/cue) or is there a different procedure for dvds?

 

Yes it is just an image file so you burn in the same way you would do .cue & .bin.

 

listen, i downloaded blade trinity (the movie) and its an avi format. I want to put it on a DVD disc to play on my DVD recorder. I also want to have the chapter selection screen on the dvd also. I have DVD+R disc and DVD-R blank recordable discs. If anybody has a free program that i can download on the internet and can describe to me how to burn my avi format movie into a DVD on that program then please write back. thanx

 

Why not follow the guide below

http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/convert_avi_to_dvd.cfm

and just replace IFO Edit with TMPGEnc Author.

TMPGEnc programs are not free but have a 30-day trial

 

I could not understand the link that maven1975 sent me but if anybody can explain to me in simpler form how to simply place an avi. file onto a dvd +/-R disc so that i can play the video on a DVD player then please write back

 

l0st1 nerovision lets you make the menu easily.Just try it

 

i have files that are avi that i want to put on a dvd, what kinda files should i convert the avi files into and then do i just burn those files onto a dvd?

 

What was confusing about the guide ?, i found it straight forward the first time i ever used it.

 

the guide wasnt confusing but when i got the the part in TMPCenc where i had to select the original avi file, it said this file is unsupported

 

Thanks scum1, I'll give it a shot.

Do all dvd players play dvd-rs? Or is it like svcd's only certain players play them.

Because I burned a dvd, and it worked fine on my dvd player, but my parents player said disc error.


But anyway, I'm sure I can figure that out. But I will give the menu making a shot Thanks for all your guys help.

What a great forum

 

Unfortunately not all DVD players can play DVD-R and some that do can be very fussy about what media is used.

All you can do is try differnet media or confirm with the manufacturer of the DVD player to see whether DVD-R is officially supported.

 

I have to agree with Maven...I burn my personal DVDs on Inteso or Optodisk DVD+R media and they play fine in my cheap $15 DVD player. For my mom's JVC DVD player, I have to burn to Maxell or Memorex DVD+Rs. Seems like, in general, the more high-end the DVD player is, the better media you have to use.

Also, you could try burning at 1x speed to see if that might make a difference. It sometimes seems like the slower the speed, the better it burns.

 

hi,

I've read the above threads but still not sure what to do about the problem I have.

I have recently converted 6 episodes of a sitcom (avi files) to VOB files that I want to burn to dvd to watch on a dvd stand alone player. I would also like to add a menu so that I can select the episode I want to watch.

What is the best freeware to use to achieve this? I've already had a 30 day free trial period with TMPGenc so I can't use that again and my version of Nero (nero 6 ultra version) doesn't seem to recognise VOB files.

Thanks for any and all advice,

Cheers

worked for my winavi converter

 

I have done the same with all the Lost episodes, I get 3 per DVD, nice menus, chapter selections and all

If you want to know how I did it, it wasn't too hard, but maybe you already have enough info

 

OK, I just got another dvd. AUdio_ts and video_ts, came in an .img file. So , I burned the IMG file but when I went to play it it was really screwed up, color was distorted and was out of focus, and only lasted like 50 seconds then turned off.

So, I don't know if I did something wrong or if the file is corrupted. Anything else I can do? This is the first time i've burned an audio_ts and video_ts


EDIT: Now I get an error when I try to burn a dvd . Tried 2 different movies, and it says that the .bup's don't match up to the .ifo's
