Avi -> Dvd
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a proggy that will let me do, as the title suggests, send an avi to a dvd. I can only seem to find a program that will create mpegs and m2v files. Anyone know about this kind of thing? cheers!

To be viewable in a normal DVD player, you'd need a DVD authoring program, if I'm not mistaken, such as Roxio DVD creator or iDVD on Mac. m2v is MPEG-2 video, which is the format DVD's use.

You can convert to Mpeg 2 with free programs as well, such as TMPEG. But the dvd authoring you will need other tools to use. Check http://www.doom9.org/ because there are free ones available.

My Suggestion would be Super DVD ripper. This program is excellent., allowing all types of ripping - by passes copyright protection too, just in case you wish to backup those important DVD's that you have bought.
 See pic below:  Also I use "Powerdirector" by Cyberlink for video editing. Info Here

What programs does it use for each step? Not all enocders are the same, by far.

You choose the encoder that you desire. I use XVID - install a codec pack.

I use Nero vision xpress and it works very well, you can also create your own dvd menus and so, worth a try

for Copying DVD to DVD (oif thats what you mean) I recommend 321 Studios DVD X Copy Express 3.0
Why DVD X Copy Express: • Make High Quality Backup copies of all your DVD Movies • Fit your entire DVD Movie onto just 1 Disc • Highest Possible Video & Audio Quality • Restore Stratched or Defective DVD Movies • Supports both NTSC and PAL DVD Movies • Built in Anti-Piracy Protection
