now then

I have two episodes of lost on a dvd, in avi format. How do i convert it into a format that i can play on my dvd player, as i dont want to spend 2 hours watching my monitor!

Any ideas? Cheers.

a short amount of research suggests that my dvd player might accept mp3 or mpeg4 formats, are any more likely than others? Its about 3 years old now.

What is the normal dvd format called?

Just use nero to burn it to normal dvd, it should convert the avi to dvd format automatically.

You can use Nero to burn avi to DVD with good results.

I am presently downloading Lost series 3 (don't have Sky) by BitTorrent but it is frustratingly slow

normal DVD format is MPEG2 VCD is MPEG1

You want Super from ERightSoft

Linky to do the format conversion, but then you'll need something to burn it to CD (VCD) or DVD.

I think Nero will also handle the conversion...

DVD Santa does a good job with .avi files and is a bit more locost than Nero.
