AVI to DVD

Barbra.w · 01-24-2006, 02:51 PM

Hi, I have downloaded an episode of a tv show into AVI format with Lime Wire, but wish to convert into DVD to burn onto disc and watch on TV. I downloaded Flash CD & DVD Burner Pro (along with adware.. grrrrrrr) to do this, but am having problems - I don't know how to use the software etc. Can anyone assist a newbie please? Also would like to get rid of the adware, as it's a work laptop.. oops.

Thanks for your help!!

hi, welcome to the forum. First, dont talk about downloading tv episodes. Just saying that it has the avi extension is enough. Use winavi to convert to dvd. It will output a file to c:\ , then burn this to a disk, make sure that you select "DVD Video" on nero. Burn at 4x. That should do you.

Download these two pieces of software.

Winavi Video Converter
Nero (trial)

You can download them from here:

Winavi - http://www.winavi.com/en/download/download.htm
Nero Trial - http://www.nero.com/nero7/eng/nero7-demo.php

Hope that helps

Thanks for the info, will try that.

I tried to download adaware however, did not seem to work. Perhaps this is because of a Firewall on my computer. Any suggestions?

lavasoft adaware?

just go to lavasoft website. The firewall shouldn't effect this.
