    i didnt want to start a new thread and its pretty much related to someone's advice from this thread. For DivX to DVD, i converted my avi to divx format and put it thru DivX to DVD, and i get a DVD video_TS structure. My standalone dvd player that is attached to my tv DOES NOT player divx or supports divx. So would it play the converted video?

    Why not just burn to DVD in AVI format using NVE.

    ... or WinAVI Video Converter. You'll find different apps that can convert and record from AVI to DVD. DivX is one of the more common codecs packaged in the AVI folder. You can think of AVI as a container and DivX is just one of the things that can be carried in it. You "opened" the AVI container, removed the DivX and then converted to DVD. At this stage you can burn it to disc with Nero Express or any decent burner and play on your standalone player. Hopefully there are no structural flaws in the VIDEO_TS to prevent playing, happens on occasion from a bad source. As mentioned it's easier to use an app that takes the AVI and opens it and processes the contents without further user input.

    NVE is Nero Vision Express, in Nero 7 you have the Nero Vision 4. MPEG2 is the DVD-Video you want to use. Ultra is the full package of Nero apps. Depends on whether you want the whole package or not. Check the Nero site for contents of each suite. If you already have the file you're working with in MPEG2 in VIDEO_TS folder, go ahead and burn it with Nero Express or whatever. You're done. Next time use an app that goes direct from AVI to DVD, it takes a lot of the guess work out.

    If you did the conversion right it will. If your player supports RW, you may want to use one until you have the process down pat. Does the converted video play on the DVD player software on your PC. If not get PowerDVD, or if you have Nero, use the player in it.

    On the Nero, yes.

    NVE will handle both your mpeg or AVI files, see guide by alkohol in my sig for further help.

    Let me retract that. I'm wondering if they aren't the same. The only product on the Nero site is the Ultra and when I looked up Preimium at one of the info sites, it had the same contents. Maybe someone else can enlighten both of us. I have the Ultra.

    The WinAVI Video Converter is an easy tool. It doesn't really need instructions. You just choose what you want and it does it. Nero Vision is good as well. With the 7, people need to get used to the name change, Nero Vision 4. Nero has instruction manuals for many of the apps in the suite that the user can download for reference. Just look in downloads on the Nero site.
