    There are guides at afterdawn to help you

    you can also use tmpgenc...
    since they are episodes i would recommend using the second link dvd3svcd and download a bit calculater http://www.videohelp.com/calc.htm so you don't end up converting one ep. too large and can't fit many on a disc...i would say 4 eps a disc (900 to 1000mb per each) use custom on the bit calc. and type in the size...then you can use dvdlab,or tmpgenc auther to author, i'm sure there's a guide for that here also

    Hi there,

    Give VSO ConvertXtoDVD a try.

    Load a few episodes in there, Convert and voila !

    cougar_ii is right and is probably alittle easier, but only problem is you have to pay for that software

    Hey,

    Yes, it's not free, but as I always said:

    After converting your 1st movie, it's payed for !!!

    Yes I Agree ConvertXtoDVD is a great program... That's what I use and well worth the very very small investment... You can read more about it and even get a [bold]Free Trial[/bold] here:

    http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/

    and besides... I have the TMPGEnc Software Suite and It Costs a heck of alot more that VSO's ConvertXtoDVD does... Give it a Try... Very User Friendly Program and a great support forum at "cdr-zone.com"...

    [bold]Good Luck and Happy Ripping[/bold]
