Default Help with converting a video file to dvd

Could someone convert a avi file I have and put it on a dvd? I'll send you a lil cash for the disk and your time. I just don't have DVD burner on my ancient pc.

lol you have a 100ghz PC or somrthing?

encoding a AVI (divx) to a Good quality DVD takes a few hours on my 3.0ghz

download Nero 7, use the key buk posted a few weeks ago. Load up Nero Vision and have at it. That program does really nice quality. takes about 1.5hrs to convert 2x350meg tv shows into VOB files for DVD burning.

after its converted (make sure it's set to Write to Folder) open nero burning rom and have at it.

oh, go buy a dvd burner, theyre like 40 bux if you shop around. (not bestbuy etc.)

here you go, best dvd burner currently available in retail channels.

thats about the same on my 2.4ghz
but if you are just doing avi file use avi2dvd. its pretty simple and you can get it for free.
go here http://www.afterdawn.com/software/vi...ls/avi2dvd.cfm
do a little reading on that site too. its the ---- for just about anything A/V related.
