    Default Another question for you techie heads

    If I've downloaded something (legal ) and it's a .avi

    Does anyone know the easiest way to burn this to DVD so it's playable like a normal DVD movie?

    I burnt a data disk originally thinking the xbox360 would play it, but it says "bad disk" or something.

    Thanks

    p.s. I've got Nero8

    Looking good. Conversion in progress. Just trying it with the free version at the min - it's creating a watermark'd movie. But will prob purchase if all good otherwise.

    Log-in to xbox live and when you go to play the data disk it gives you the option to download the divx to play the disk.

    It well worth it, usually get 4 films on the one disk

    burning takes 15 minutes at the most

    The AVI - VCD trial worked a treat, such a doddle to use even for people with no patience like me. So I've bought the full version and burning a good disc now.

    Thanks



    I've nominated this post as a Great contribution.
    Well done and thank you.
