If you want your avi file on cdr,first convert it to vcd or svcd not dvd as you are doing in winavi...beware most 700mb avi files will need 2xcdr discs

I had problems for months trying to convert burn etc etc, i used like 25 DVDs with no luck.

Finally though, i’m sorted now. Just get a decent program and convert AVI to DVD format and burn, and that’s you, should work on your DVD players etc.


Can someone tell me some programs that i cna use to make a menu at the start of my dvds???

Thanks!

OK, I have read almost every post on this site and I am still having trouble burning a CD to play on my DVD Player.

I have a DVD player that supports DivX along with SVCD, VCD, etc. I have .avi files that I have been trying just to burn onto a 700Mb CD, since it would seem that the player should be able to read them, but when I go to play them the player always says “DivX Error," so I am stuck.

I read once that the filename has to be a certain number of letters in order to be read correctly, but now I can’t find the post that said how many it had to be. Could this be the issue?

I also read that I might need to do something to the files to convert them to be read on my player, with WinAVI. I have WinAVI and I have tried to convert them to SVCD and VOB but both times unsucessfully, because then when I go to burn them using Ashampoo, it says they are “not formatted correctly for SVCD / VCD." I don’t know if it is a bitrate issue, or a format issue, or what.

In WinAVI, in order to convert the avi files I have to one that my player supports, what do I have to set?

If anyone can tell me how to get my avi files onto CD so I can play them with my DivX compatible DVD player, it would be greatly appreciated.

rite 4 a start forget trying 2 burn as vcd or svcd the quality is crap and most times on dvd players they wont work so here goes an avi file will need 2 be converted so 1st convert them with winavi take no notice of wot winavi says if it plays on any meadia player u have installed then it should convert succesfully then d/l a program called dvd shrink its a freeware prog so just google it and u should find it rite when u have converted the avi file through winavi open up dvd shrink and open a new file then navagate 2 where winavi converted the movie 2 then add the files then just click backup and the process will start if u have nero preinstalled when winavi is finished it will automatically burn the movie onto disc and then the movie will be able 2 be played on almost any dvd player hope this helps because the process is very straight forward really
