windows 7 will do it . but dvd files are much bigger than avi.
may be an idea to get a dvd player that can read avi files, then you can burn them as a data disc, thus getting more onto a disc.


cos i'm that kinda guy...

Nero Burning rom is good, I use the option on the interface as it walks you through the process.

Has your DVD player got a USB connection as I just load mine onto a memory stick & watch it.

Lots of options, but at the heart of it, converting from AVI video to a DVD is easy. It'll even make the VOB for easy burning, if that's your thing.
