    I have some family videos that I'd like to convert to be able to play on my DVD player. My camera takes .mov video, and I'd like to know what kind of .avi can be played on a Divx DVD player. I don't mind buying paid software. Thanks in advance!

    A standalone wants a maximum resolution of 720x576, MP3 or AC3 audio is ok.
    Use the XviD codec.
    Try AviDemux (free) for the conversion.
    Load/drag the video in and set the left hand as shown.
    Use the Video > Filters button and Resize if required.
    (my example is resized from 1920x1080 to 640x)
    When you save the file, give it a name that includes the extension, e.g. myvideo.avi
