converting files ?

[my 2.5 tds]

Evening all

Im looking for a FREE program to DOWNLOAD - that converts AVI files and other files to files that can be burnt to DVD
and played on my cheepy dvd player - ive seen a few but they only TRIAL VERSIONS
any help with such program much appreciated guys

Try Nero burning ROM.

There are others out there, Il have to have a look through my bookmarks.

Most modern DVD players support avi. files encoded with Xvid or Divx and generally anything encoded in MPEG4 format.

Cept Nero isn't free in any shape or form.

Get linux ... it's free and will convert things nicely

Or if not, give HandBrake a go

Get linux

Spot the Linux tart (still not brave enough )

Personally, I'd recommend Linux too.

[Drift]

Linux is an operating system.

ive got an original nero disc hanging around somewhere,it will be an older version so not sure if it would work with vista or windows 7,but if your using xp it should be fine,i will dig it out for you.
edit / sorry found it but its a trial version of nero 8
