    I have burned many .avi's to a DVD disc using Data Burn on Nero. Usually 4-5 films per disc. About 70% play fine on my Sony NS52P player. I know that I can encode the 30% who don't play to DVD, using Nero Vision, but this is very time consiming and blows the file up from about 700 megs to 2 gigs or more.. Is their any other program(s) that will encode this to some other format that might play on my Sony?


    Thanks

    AutoGK, AVIRecomp, etc. plenty of apps for re-encoding avi's for SAP compatibility.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I tried AutoGK and it took nearly 4 hours to convert a 700 meg .avi to an _agk.avi file which will hopefully play on my DVD player. I will try AVIrecomp tomorrow, but I would appreciate a list of other ( hopefully faster) encoders. I have an Athlon 3000 plus 1.5 gigs of ram .

    Thanks again for you help

    Given that all encoders are still using the same codecs, the only way to increase speed is to lower the quality.

    How do I lower the quality? I have tried AVEReComp and it took 2 hours to do a 700 meg file, but I only asked it to compress to 1400 megs.

    Thanks again

    I have burned 1 film encoded with AutoGK and 2 films encoded with AVEReComp and all 3 show up as a Data Error (DivX). Any other programs that you think might work?

    i also have had the same probs with avis on my divx dvd player/recorder and the best thing i found was to convert it to dvd,(vob)from the avi disk onto comp, i use winavi, nero works there are lots of other good ones too, then convert it again back to avi with super dvd ripper.
    you could go avi to avi with winavi but i have found that to cause sound sync issues, easy to fix when watching on pc but not on stand alone dvd player.
    also winavi is the fastest i have used and ussaly takes me less then an hour to go avi to vob on my semp3400 with 1gig ram. but the thing to remmember is your comp is only as fast as as the cables inside. i bought some new ide cables and it took 90 seconds off the time it takes to burn a full dvd at x8.
    gotten off track there that works for me but your player might like dif codecs find out which it does play and convert to that. good luck

    Both (if setup correctly) should output Home Theatre profile and therefor should work 100% fine on your player since it is HT certified.
