Trying to make a DVD, need some help with subs and info

I have a movie, it came with subs. I want to embed the subs into the AVi and convert it to DVD so I can burn it and play it on a dvd player.

My question is....

1)How do I embed the subs to the file (or is there an easier way)?

2)What program is the best to converting the AVI to DVD?

 

This is one way:

if you need to convert subtitles to srt format use Subtitle Workshop and save as SubRip
