    I guess you are also using Nero to convert the files.

    Assuming that the original AVI is playing ok, convert to a standard DVD output folder with this.

    http://dl.afterdawn.com/vsoDivxToDVD_setup_v0.5.2b.exe
    Import the file(s) (AVI, WMV,MPEG, VOB)
    Output (standard DVD file format) to a folder on the HDD.
    Set 'Aspect' to 4:3 (if you have a regular tv)
    Set 'Standard' to NTSC (if you live in North America)


    Open the output folder with your media player and verify that the sound is ok.
    If everything is ok, either burn the folder to DVD with Nero and test the disk or use ImgBurn to burn the output folder to disk.

    'ImgBurn'
    http://www.imgburn.com/

    Run ImgBurn
    Mode > 'Build'
    Output > 'Device'
    File > 'Browse for Folder', highlight on the 'VIDEO_TS' folder, > 'OK'
    Set burning speed to 4x and click the green write button.

    Use only media that says 'made in Japan' or 'Verbatim'.

    I am frustrated. Once I was able to convert files from AVI (Xvid) and burn DVDs using Nero. Recently doing this gives me good video but muffled sound (echo chamberish) on two different DVD players. The disks work fine on my computer.

    I've tried ConvertXtoDVD and also VSO DivXtoDVD followed by ImgBurn with the same result. I've tried PAL and NTSC settings.

    The only thing I can think of is that my computer and my AVI files use a codec that isn't part of the DivX standard used by the conversion software I've tried.

    The files I've used lately are movies (by AXXO) which I thought were among the better ones obtained using BitTorrent.

    Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

    Do you have an AVI that was previously converted that you can reconvert and see if the problem is now apparent on the standalone player?
    If you find a problem with the previously good file, then something has changed on the PC.
    If everything is good, then the new files are the problem.
    You can drag AVI files onto GSpot and look at the Audi codec to see if old and new files differ (it is the audio, right?)
