    I recently got these Sony miniDVD-RW, you know the ones used for camcorders. I thought of doing a small experiment of putting an .avi format movie onto it and have it run as a DVD movie. I was wondering how would I go about that? FYI: The miniDVD is 1.4GB (1433.6 MB). I've looked at AVI2DVD and ConvertXtoDVD, any thoughts on which one is better? Also, I actually tried my luck with AVI2DVD but unfortunately, when I get to the Output Settings, there is no option for a custom size DVD for "Choose Disk Size." Is there a way I can change that manually? Thanks in advance!

    Ahh thanks! Yes, this is a very simplified DVD authoring program as well. Oh by the way, is there a way to add audio to the Root menu in this program? I'd really like that.

    To add audio, Main Page:
    Edit Title > Audio Tracks > Add.

    Oh I see that but the Audio I add automatically runs at the Root menu? It doesn't say anywhere where this new audio I add will run..

    I'm not clear what you mean.
    You can change the order of the audio (tracks 1 or 2) in the settings, or from the DVD Menu (if you elect a menu) or from the remote during playback.

    You know on some DVD root menus, there is music playing in the background? That's what I want.

    Are there any other DVD authoring programs that DO have that option?
