Best AVI to DVD Program?

[Triumphdog]

I used to use Windvd Creator to take my avi or mpeg files and put them onto a DVD, but its been giving me problems lately. What other programs work well? It just seems that if I use a converter and then try to put that file onto a DVD using a burning program, it looses quiality. But just using the Windvd Creator, it seemed to keep pretty good quality. Any suggestions?

i have a soft spot for TMPGEnc myself. if used with shrink for the larger projects, quality is still remarkable, of course it isn't freeware.

So if I purchase just the DVD Author from TMPGEnc, will that do the trick of putting avi and mpegs to a dvd. Will this program burn them as well?

what kind of problem do you have? I have cucsolft but I may buy another program if I know it is better?

Thanks

No, you'll need the encoder - TMPGEnc. Plus.

See the READ THIS FIRST sticky in our Authoring & Editing forum for various guides.

Or get the free DivX2DVD... it works great.

blutach is right, you will need the encoder TMPGEnc plus. DVD author does have it's own burn engine.

@nighttran, they are basicly the same, just one has disabled mpeg-2 support.

what about batching LT, can I batch more the 5,10 15, 20 avi file to change to dvd file?

[drfsupercenter]

I never had a problem with DivX2DVD, that's odd. Did you try Nero?

[NightTran]

no I did not but I will

of course. final screen, tick "create other projects for batch encode". go to file>batch encode save .tbe file for safety purposes. you can even edit them in the list

[NightTran]

thanks, LT

[LT. Columbo]

no problem, you might want to do them in batches of 10 or 20 depending on the length. 50 files to load--you'll be there for a while!

one file is almost an hour, the cucusoft 5 files is two hours ? is it better quality on this one?
