Hi, I hope this is the right spot. If there is a more appropriate forum for my questions, please me know. Okay, off we go... I just downloaded a video conference that is in 10 parts in the .dvx format, which I am not used to dealing with. I want to be able to burn these 10 files onto a DVD but I am not sure how to do it with .dvx. I am used to just dealing with avi format and burning using Nero. Could I possibly convert these files into avi format and then burn as usual? If so, what conversion application would you recommend? It doesn't have to be a free one, just the best one, and maybe fastest, you can think of. Also, if I convert to avi, will I lose picture quality? Perhaps, another format, other than avi, would be best to maintain the best quality, because the files are already degraded a bit, so I don't want to make the picture even worse. If I use another format, then what program would I use? Could I still use Nero? If you have other suggestions on how to deal with getting these files onto a DVD for viewing I am all ears. Thanks in advance for your help!! Sky
@ MysticE Your suggestion to switch from dvx to avi worked fine. I was able to play the newly coded files in VLC media player. However, I was NOT able to burn the avi file using Nero. Nero Vision said it was unable insert the file I am confused as to why it is doing that. Now that I renamed the file format to avi, isn't it just like a regular avi file? Or is it somehow different? How do you suggest I proceed with burning these files to a disk, or is it not possible? Thanks. Sky
No. I thought maybe it would work so as you could use Nero. Rename them back to divx and get DVD Flick (free).
I did as you said and renamed the files back to the dvx format. Then I download the DVD Flick and after two attempts I was final able to burn the dvx file to a DVD disc and then play it on my regular DVD player. Yeah! I am not sure if DVD Flick will take over for Nero in my life, but it certainly did the trick now. Mission accomplished!Thanks again for your help!!
