Burning avi files to dvd

When i try to burn avi files to dvd using Nero it will say 'no compatible file found', similarly Ulead dvd movie factory says 'file not accesible'. What program should i use? Or is there a file converter to make the avi readily useable for these programs. They play fine using my media players

You will need to get a converter, try looking at http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/convert_avi_to_dvd.cfm

That site is full of information about video files and such.

Yhea man try the program AVI DVD Burner 2007.Find it somewhere on google <content edited out>.It takes about an hour to convert.And then just burn the file to a CD and TADA.You can play it on your regular dvd player even if you want to.Don't need the divx players.

interesting.......... try winavi convertor it takes an avi and makes a dvd

nero should work ,what version you running
you could need a codec
can you play the avi file on machine

I have Nero DVD plugin which is a download to ver 6+ burns AVI's just fine.

VSO ConvertXToDVD is simply the best.

get riva avi decoder change them to mpegs, eazy its freeware also,

Agree with samstoned, Nero should work. (in fact i'm doing it right now)

Download a codec pack, like K-light codec pack etc. It could be that your .AVI is in Divx/Xvid format etc.
