Ok... I have a bunch of movies downloaded in mpeg/avi format... I wanted to know how I could encode them (which program) so that I could burn them and play them on a DVD player...
-
i used to use a program called tmpgenc
-
nero has an encoder which will automatically encode them. problem is an avi converted becomes a much bigger file and won't fit on one cd. You will have to cut the avi in half.

Wouldn't it fit on a DVD though?... I have a DVD burner..

It depends on how big the DVD is, and if it's a dual layer DVD..
If your DVD burner is dual layer compatible, you can burn all DVD's, but if it's a single layer burner, you will have to cut off some material to make it fit on a regular 4.7GB DVD, I think the 9GB DVD's are expensive though..
Programs you can use to make it fit on a 4.7GB DVD:

Oh wait, I misread the topic.. bedtime for me. ::)
Anyways, Nero is good for putting movies on a DVD, most mpeg's and Div-X movies will easily fit on a DVD, you just gotta adjust the quality vs. size option, which most programs have..

i use dvdsanta it takes avi/divx, mpeg files and just about every video file out there and converts it into a vob file which can be burned onto a blank dvd using the same program. it's also fairly easy to use. check it out. http://www.mp3towav.org/dvdSanta/
