Avi, Divx, Xvid Etc To Dvd-r

[waynebinuk]

Can anyone recommend a good all-round piece of software that will burn movies in whatever format to DVD-r ?
I have been using Nero vision express which had worked fine on most files but, on some the sound has not been in sync with the movie.

Any ideas? Is there something I can do within Nero?

Someone has recommended pinnacle?

Thanks for any help you can give......

One set of procedures (other posters may/probably will suggest alternative methods) would be:

1) Use "TMPGEnc" to convert the .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise) to compliant MPEG2-for-DVD format - Use "TMPGEnc's" DVD wizard/template to accomplish this

2) Use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" v.1.5.11.37 (a different program than "TMPGEnc) to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish)


**If the combined filesize of the DVD "package" written to your hard drive is greater than 4.37Gb, use DVD Shrink (or similar) to compress


If your O/S is either Win2000 or WinXP, TMPGEnc DVD Author can also burn your DVD. Otherwise, use NERO to burn in "DVD-Video" mode
(As an alternative to "TMPGEnc DVD Author", you could use "DVDLab")
