i converted my .avi movies to vob.. is it possible to burn the movie to a cd-r and play in the dvd player?

No, this type of media is not backwards compatible.  Just pick up some dvd-r's from www.tigerdirect.com.  Otherwise just burn a vcd or svcd on your cd-r.  Most newer dvd players support this.

You're gonna have a heck of a time trying to get a full movie fit onto a CD. And, I'm not sure video files will burn to CD format.\n\nI use DVD 1 Click Copy to do what you are describing. Works great and is easy to use.

first you need to rip the dvd with dvd decrypter ... then convert it to max quality avi with autogk ... then u can convert it to vcd with winavi, canopus procoder, or tmpgenc ... this method produces the best quality vcd in my experience and is simple .. takes alittle time though.

you are wanting to make a vcd?  Put a movie onto a cd instead of a dvd?  If that is the case, you will in most cases need to use a software application to compress the video for you.  Search for VCD or DVD to divx.  There are tons of programs that will let you do this.\n Good luck.

if you have a decent cd burner program, they have an inbuild video encoder program.  I use Nero and it does that for me and i can fit an entire movie on a vcd

Copying .vob straight into your computer render them unplayable. All you get is gibberish pics and audio. The built-in CSS encryption prevent a straight copy to HDD.\n\nThe only way is to back them up with ShrinkDVD or other decryption software. Only then can u play on your PC.\n\nShrinkDVD as its name implies - shrink a 8gb movie down to 4.7gb. while bypassing the encryption.

Simple answer......do a search.  Type in "convert AVI to DVD."  Possibly add freeware to the mix.  You kids make me laugh.  I'm not going to give you a straight up answer here......work for it punk.  This whole answers thing is ruining the concept of search engines.

I have a cd-r in my dvd player with a movie right now and it works. You must use a file format that is compatable with the dvd player. I got mine from a friend so I don't know which format it's in but it's definitely possible. I promise. Though video is not very good quality. If anybody knows a good (possibly free?) converter w/o spyware I would like to know.

Pop the DVD into your comp....look at the file extensions for the video files....i forget what some of them are.  then google "[extension] to .avi converter"\nfor example, if the extension is .abc then you'd googe ".abc to .avi converter"\nYou'll find ones you might have to pay for, but there are free converters.  I guess you want avi so you can edit them or cut scenes out and make something out of the eps?\nIf your going to just view them, no real need to bust your balls(or boobs) to convert...

I would suggest using AVI2DVD because its free and probably the best tool out there: http://www.techroam.com/how-to-burn-avi-to-dvd/

no, its not possible. VCD is an older version, you cannot play a newer version to the older, but, you can play a VCD to a DVD drive.

For thatfirst insert a blank CD in ur drive and open the nero 6 and go for CREATE VCD option and sewlect the movie files which u want to make to VCD. Then click BURN. \nIt will take pretty good time first to encode and then to write to CD. Then u can use that CD in your VCD player. \nHope it will work

Or use ConvertXtoDVD. Good program for converting anything (AVI, MPG, WMV, etc.) to DVD format.

You can download a free programme called DVD SANTA.  Use it to convert various types of files (mpeg, avi, wmv etc..) to VOB files which will allow play in a dvd player.  I've used it, it's easy.

Most computers with a CD burner or a DVD burner come with a bundled software. The common ones that I know of are Roxio and Nero. Launch these applications and choose to burn/create a video file. These would open up a screen that would allow you to choose that .avi file that you have and it would automatically convert it into that desired format for playing into you vcd/dvd player

I use Nero 7 Ultimate Edition. It works great, you just drag and drop the AVI into the CD Project. You can even create custom DVD menus and chapter stops.

if you're trying to burn AVIs, MPEGs, etc. to a video DVD usually the procedure is (1) convert movie file to a DVD format files then (2) burn those onto a DVD using your burning software (nero, roxio, etc.). some programs will allow you to select a movie file then convert and burn in one session. have you even try to run the proggie you've downloaded?\n\nbut remeber, converting movies to DVD take ALOT of time. i reccomend everyone to just buy a DVD player that plays AVIs, MPEGs, etc. straight from computer files - the cost under $80. it saves you a lot of time.
