Convert AVI, Xvid, DivX to DVD

The newest version of AVI2DVD has a menu creation funtion tab.

 

I just wanted to say thanks again for all the help you guys have given. I have had no problem until today I tried to play a dvd and said pal. I know what that means but I want to know if the is a way to make sure it NTSC when I convert it. I am not complaing. of all the one I have coneverted only 6 have been in PAL. Thank you and help will do.

 

Actually, if you're using AVI2DVD just check the box that forces it to output to NTSC even if the source material is PAL.

 

I was using VSO ConvertXtoDVD. I think I figuered it out. I had video standard on automatic before. I just switched it to NTSC as default. I hope this works. Anyone got any other sugestions? Thank you.

 

vso does a great job converting to dvd

 

I found an exiting new way to fit XVIDs onto DVD fast.
Well, not so exiting or new. If you use the s-video out (on alot of video cards) and the audio out from your sound card, you can plug in to a (cheap these days) DVD home recorder. You can have a basic DVD of a downloaded tv show in 40 MINUTES. You can fit up to 6 1 hr tv shows (40 minutes without commercials) onto a single DVD. Fast, no transcoding errors, stuttering video, out of sync audio. You can use VLC media player for free to play them to.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Just a thought.

 

Does anybody know of any freeware to convert avi to dvd?

Thanks a lot.

Uhm help me plz, i'm new to the forum and i've been reading. I download AVI2DVD and DVD Decrypter and everything is good until i load my AVI file. When i load it your suppose to get the files information and an audio stream, i'm not getting that at all. Can someone help me please!!!!! Just to let you know i don't have a DVD drive installed on my computer yet, is that the problem?

 

Do you get the warning about illegal characters in the file name? That is your problem, if so. It looks like a standard warning when it's actually telling you those characters are in your file name. Replace any illegal characters with spaces or something allowed and you should see the audio stream.

 

I think I have the latest version and there is a menu function, but I can't figure it out. And it doesn't let you encode two separate videos. I'm willing to combine separate videos by using the naming convention but would like to be able to easily (key word) create a menu to jump to the second video.

Thanks.

Not sure if this is the right place to be posting - didn't want to start a new thread with a similar title.

Have just tried using Divxtodvd to get some avi files onto DVD. It has produced 3 vob files which can be seen by nero, but when it comes to burning them off, nero says that the files have failed a compliance test.

When I use the burn DVD option in DivxtoDVD, it won't open the folder at all, yet I used the program to convert the files. Am very confused! I hate being a novice!

Does anyone have any advice? Am hoping to burn 3 avi files onto one dvd that will eventually play on a regular dvd player.

I have a version of DVD shrink too, but that cant find the files either, yet when I click on them, they play with my PC's dvd player.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated )

 

hi everyone. i'm just wondering if there is a program to convert from mpeg2 to avi without loosing quality or lagging or bouncing.
I tried many but i didn't like the quality when there is mouvement in the image

thank you

 

hi can anyone help me out there?
i have converted many avi files to dvd using dvd santa and had no problems till now.
I add the avi file then press convert and dvd santa closes down.
Is there a problem with the file or the program?Any help would much appreciated
thx

 

I have had the same problem lately. I have used avi2dvd and Imtoo in the past. Worthless programs as far as I am concerned anyway. They either don't convert or they do convert and take hours to do it. DvdSanta has worked very well and fairly quickly up until recently. I have downloaded some movies in AVI format. I can't play them on wmv player but they play fine on my divx player. However when I try to convert the movie into dvd format to burn onto a dvd,.dvdsanta says there was an error and unable to load movie file.
Any ideas ?

 

Hello folks.

I have successfully converted an XVID-encoded .AVI file to DVD (mpg).
The output file is of a completely manageable size... no errors, I am happy. HOWEVER - I don't like the way the converter has handled the motion within the piece - if you watch the two side by side you see that the converted file is slightly jerky (most people wouldn't notice it). The original is very smooth. Is there some kind of filtration going on? Is there an encoder that understands this issue and can compensate for it? Is this perhaps an artefact of the conversion to PAL?

Some technical information:

Input file: 29.970fps XVID MPG4 file @ 704*396 (16:9)
Output: PAL DVD 720*576 (16:9) 25fps Encoding @ CBR

I'm currently using MainConcept MPEG encoder.

Thanks
