hey guys, im downloading .avi files and want to burn them to dvd. Do i need to convert these files so they can be viewed on a dvd player? If so, can you tell me where to get the software to do this please?

Much appreciated,
Colin

i've been getting the message "missing codec" when trying to convet from .avi to mpeg and i have downloaded codecs etc but i still cannit burn my dvds ... is there an easier way to download movies and burn them to dvd?

cheers guys

I wonder why you would be have such a difficult time burning an .avi to a DVD. Most .avi's need the DivX codec. I just burnt an .avi to DVD last night and it worked fine. What kind of burning program do you use?

NTI CD and DVD CREATOR GOLD . . . what do you use?

When I burn DVD's I use Nero and for CD's I use Sonic RecordNow! Try downloading the DivX codec from this site: www.divx.com You'll want the one with the blue background. Once you get that then try burning your DVD again.

wot u need is power producer... download it off limewire or just add my hotmail and ill send it 2 u... please make sure dat u have DVD r/w drive an sum blank DVD - R (DVD + R's r ok but less compatible then -R when it cums to playing them on DVD players)
