Question Software to create DVD to play on DVD player

hey,

does anyone know any good programs I can use to copy avi files from my hdd to a dvd so that I can play them on my DVD player???
I've used various programs like DVD FLick(free) and a paying one(Xilisoft DVD Creator). ATM i have had better experience with the second program.
if anyone knows any good programs that are free please let me know
thanx in advance!!!!!

ConvertXToDVD is a good program. It takes a little while though, but it's pretty good quality. I normally start it, walk away, come back an hour or 2 later and it's done. It doesn't really bother me unless I need the DVD right away, but if I make it in advance it's not a problem.

There's a trial version but it does include a watermark. Nothing that can't be handled though.............

I use ulead videostudio 10 plus. It's kind of expensive, but has a lot of features, and can burn blue-ray. I think there's a new version out now.

Agreed!! Convertxtodvd is without a doubt the best dvd burning software. You could also use Nero but, convertxtodvd is way faster than Nero. I use convertxtodvd alot and have had no problems at all.
