Quick video question

Guero · Post by **Guero** » Mon May 09, 2005 7:49 pm

I have a video I downloaded and it's a .avi format and I was wondering if you guys knew of a program, preferably free and downloadable, that could change it to something that I could put it on a CD and play it in my DVD player. Thanks.

Uh, depends on what your DVD player can play, doesn't it? Can it read DivX? If so, a DivX encoder is what you are looking for. I'm not really into that pirating stuff, but shouldn't be to hard to find one for free.

I get audio on DivX but the video is just a jumpy green screen.

Hmm... And what about Video CD? Many DVD players can read them.
The first thing you need to know is probably which video formats your DVD player is compatible with, actually.

What make/model is your dvd player?

And you registered here just to ask this? On a gaming forum?

I was registered here on sektorseven as Yoshimi, yet I hadn't posted there for a loooooong while. And it's an RCA dvd player and it says it can support video cd, but I have EasyCD creator and it says in order to burn a VideoCD i have to pay to uprgrade.

This question isn't quick enough

I'm pretty sure you can find free tools to convert AVI into VDC. Try looking for "Video CD" in Google.
