.Avi to DVD player...

I have an .AVI file on my HD. I converted it to a dvd vidio on a Doublelayer disk. It will play perfectly on my imac and aswell on my older original Xbox, but will only play the audio portion, not the vidio portion on my 1 year old Panasonic DVD player. Can anybody offer any help with this.

Thanks in advance, Carl

PS. I converted using Mpeg Streamclip and then used BURN

 

Mpeg StreamClip does not author the DVD(from what I read), it just converts to the proper video format.Did it create a Video_TS folder with a bunch of VOB/BUP/IFO files? If not,
You need a DVD authoring software to be able to play the DVD on most standalone players. I guess on a MAC you can try iDVD, on a PC you have dozens of free choices...

 

Yes it created audio TS and vidio TS folders on the disk

 

...and you have sound, but not video on your player?
Did you try other disc in the player(just giving it a shot, maybe the video cable came loose...)

Did you convert to PAL or NTSC? Where do you live?

 

I used Pal.

 

And that's what your hardware requires, right, live in a PAL region?

 

Yes "I believe". I am in Western Canada. I am very new to this and obviously have lots to learn. I felt like I must have been close, becase it would play on the Xbox. Possibly a checkbox that wasn't checked... Audio codec was MP2 option was AP3 ??? ect.ect.

 

I think in Canada you use NTSC. Try converting again, make sure you check the NTSC box.

 

Will try that. Thanks for the help. (**)
